    I recently tried out Tanuki right by the Miami River. You can conveniently park in the adjacent River Landing garage. The restaurant was very lively on a Friday night. We had reservations as we were celebrating a birthday. They have entertainment from fire dancers throughout the night. The Asian fusion food was delicious. I had the spicy tuna roll upfront and the amazing miso sea bass as my main. You get to see the boats drive by which makes for a nice very Miami vibe.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very nice date spot with great outdoor seating that has a view of the water with boats going by.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Got the miso soup and truffle yellowtail roll which were both good. Service was fine. Prices are elevated, but you're paying for a lovely location. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Interior is nice too.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The couple of menu items I tried were not out of this world, but willing to come back and try more.

    Outstanding in every way! The food , the service, the setting by water... had amazing drinks and can't shout out enough to everyone working there being so friendly! Can't wait to go back!

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant itself was really beautiful.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They had plenty of seating available inside and on their patio which overlooks the river.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]We got a table outside and there's a dj that has good music outside but I wish it was not that loud so there's better conversations.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They also have a women doing fire tricks which was amazing, she was really sweet coming up to our table and letting us enjoy the experience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Food itself was good but a little overpriced for the amount given. Definitely try scallop and shrimp garlic butter dish, it was mind blowing. Appetizers are also great, good choices. I would definitely recommend this restaurant!

    My family wanted to take me out for Mother's Day and they know I enjoy a restaurant with a great view. They were able to snag a reservation and we celebrated Mother's Day for brunch. As we walked in there was a line outside, which was a good sign means that people wanted to eat here. I'm glad I didn't get a reservation. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We were seated out by the water. What a great view of the Miami river.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The water helps keep the area outside cool along with the fans.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food was brought out as ready. All of the seafood was fresh. They have a daily specials menu where we got tuna and salmon hand rolls. We really enjoyed our time and I would think about coming back.

    Must have that Truffled Yellowtail!

    Many Many years ago, I have been to their previous location in Miami Beach for an event and ever since wanted to go back. So fast forward to October 28th 2025 I found myself in the area of their new location at the River Landing Mall along the Miami River for some legal things that had to take the day off to deal with. To reward myself, was able to have lunch that day so had excitedly pounced on Tanuki here and it blew me away! [[HIGHLIGHT]]With not much effort driving into this big building complex of shoppes and condos, driving up the ramp a few levels to find parking, then taking elevator down to the first floor, you come to Tanuki on the river that has a relaxing covered outdoor seating area or when going inside one is whisked away into an amazing well decorated Asian themd space![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Being the only one there, I opted for the bar area and glad I did as it had good views in every direction as well as through the windows to the outdoor area. It is here I had the pleasure of Gerrick the excellent bartender taking care of everything and answering questions and making suggestions. For drinks I had wanted a mocktail so the menu intrigued me with a Blackberry Yuzu Nojito, he made suggestions about how sweet I wanted it which was very nice for a bar to so! I got it not too sweet and was perfectly balanced being a great tasting drink reminiscent of a Mojito but with blackberry taste yet lighter on sugar content. Very very nice. Onto the food! Hungry! The restaurant is modern Asian fusion which their menu offers Japanese, Chineese and pan-Asian dishes to choose from. I had a hard time deciding! OK, two items caught my eye and had to order them both: Truffled Yellowtail Sushi roll and the Duck Dim Sum. OMG both were beautiful and amazing The Truffled Yellowtail was well plated on that dish and their truffle sauce lightly poured ontop. I love truffled anything and this took this sushi to a whole other level! So had enjoyed it so much. This vibrant orange wrapped Duck Dim Sum sits in its steaming basket, what a delight to see. Placing one in your mouth you are treated to a soft blanket sensation wrapping your tongue while chewing and the flavors are oh so Devine. I enjoyed the range of duck and other flavors going on and had to savor each piece by alternating this with the Yellow tail sushi and cleansing my palate with drinking the Blackberry Yuzu Nojito! It was so much fun taking it all in while eating looking around, interecrimg with the bartender. Dessert: Ok originally did not plan on dessert (was already full) but Gerrick talked me into getting the Lemongrass Creme Brule with three mixed berries. Again the presentation was very nice and when trying it the texture as I recall is like other creme brulees have had before but the flavor was subtly different. Not amazingly different, just subtle with a hint of Lemongrass. Would I order it again? Maybe not but then again next time try something else that might wow me. This was for sure a phenominal lunch spot hands down. Oh and I learned from Gerrick that on the weekends they have Live music from2pm until 4pm(?) And then later in the evening again have more live music. I definitely want to go back for that! Lastly, The River Landing Mall provides 2 hour free parking but I had too much fun and went over that so had to pay about $5 or so, which honestly is not bad. This would be a Mall to be tempted to stay and discover or shop or walk off the Caroline's consumed :). Oh and leaving the mall could be a pain if wanting to turn left to catch the road back to the highway ESPECIALLY if traffic backed up due to whatever reason (drawbridge up perhaps?). I had to navigate that mess. But wont let this deter me from coming back Solid restaurant Tanuki is.

    I wanted a quick bite for lunch and stopped in here to have a roll and a drink. I sat at the bar and the bartender was wonderful. My roll was delicious! The restaurant is beautifully decorated, the bar faces the river and the outdoor patio. It was a weekday and pretty quiet so I got to talk to the staff, all very nice. Definitely will be back.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Expensive, but restaurant is by the river view and in shopping center plaza.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Food is sub par Beware of the 20% already included tips

    Chloe M.

    Absolutely love coming here for happy hour 4-7pm everyday, even the weekends for food and drinks. Been going here for 2 years and so far everything we've eaten and ordered has been great. I love their sticky ribs, sushi rolls, and spicy edamame. I don't drink alcohol but my friends love their drinks when we dine here. The severs are also super great, Luis is the best one there! We go here for date night and even to celebrate my birthday with 20 guests. They are very accommodating and friendly here.

    Tanya M.

    Wonderful dining experience and Tanuki! The staff provided fantastic hospitality, delicious drinks, while entertaining palettes and vibes with a fire show and DJ spinning lovely Brazilian-Afro Beats facing Miami River with yachts passing by. Highly recommended! Definitely looking forward to returning soon witu my crew

    Reygine C.

    Came here for a work group lunch and it was a great choice for the occasion. We ordered family style and shared several dishes including the skirt steak, which came beautifully presented on a wood board with pickled onions, cucumber, lettuce cups, and a creamy aioli, We also shared Brussels sprouts, and fried rice with egg. Everything was well portioned for sharing and the table enjoyed it all. We also went all in on desserts and tried the lava cake, chocolate cake, and two standouts worth noting separately. The lemongrass crème brûlée was honestly the best thing we had all night, creamy with a perfectly caramelized top and a subtle flavor that made it memorable. The cheesecake was also a hit with the group. Service handled our group well without feeling chaotic, and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the atmosphere is relaxed (great view of the river) and comfortable for a midday meal.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Docking one star only because a couple of dishes took a bit longer to arrive, seems they may have been understaffed. Overall a solid pick for a group lunch in Miami and we would return.

    Mango salmon
    Mahsa T.

    The ambiance is a 10/10 with river front views and great outdoor seating, however, the food was disappointing. Unimpressed with my happy hour cocktail (happy hour until 7pm on Friday), for $9 still pricey! We decided to skip the Miami Spice menu because it didn't have anything interesting. Crab rangoon contained absolutely no crab, was just cream cheese. Super expensive for fried cream cheese. I had such high hopes for the mango salmon. As you can see in the pics, not much mango other than a few unripe squares and not incorporated into the flavor, but just a garnish. Beautifully presented. Worst insult of the night, when I started to eat it, it was not only barely warm, but completely uncooked on the inside. Essentially, I was served raw salmon. Zero flavor and very watery and soggy. I pointed it out to our server and asked for it to be cooked more and well done. Received no apology from manager, nothing comped or offered for the completely undercooked (raw) salmon I received. When it came back out, my mango and most of the asparagus was missing, so I got less back on my plate than what I sent back to the kitchen. Absolutely terrible way to treat your customers. Cheesecake was another underwhelming and expensive item we ordered for dessert. Courteous service. Overall, this was highly disappointing and the food didn't match the good reviews.

    Pad See Ew and Mongolian Beef
    M A.

    Had a really good experience at Tanuki. We ordered the Black Dragon roll, Truffle Yellowtail roll, Mongolian beef, and Pad See Ew. Both sushi rolls were really good and the fish tasted fresh. The Truffle Yellowtail was especially flavorful. The Pad See Ew and Mongolian beef were also very flavorful and tasted authentic. The only downside was the rice that came with the Mongolian beef, was a bit dry. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The location is really nice with a waterfront view, which makes the atmosphere great.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Overall a great spot for both sushi and hot dishes, would definitely come back to try the other dishes.

We chose the Oma Deluxe because we wanted the entire experience. Francisco explained each sushi and what part of the fish we were eating. Each dish was brought out separately. There were about 9 pieces of different cuts of fish. They were delicious! My daughter had Sake and I had Non-alcoholic beer. Both went fine with our meal. Afterwards, we were served dessert.

Parking is mostly limited street parking though, so plan ahead. This spot is more about curated tastings, sashimi, nigiri, and handrolls rather than specialty rolls, so don't expect a huge roll menu. We ordered the sashimi assortment, white fish tasting, seared salmon, bluefin tuna tasting, unagi foie gras, and a few handrolls including blue crab and negi toro. Everything tasted super fresh and flavorful, especially the bluefin and unagi foie gras. Portions are on the lighter side though, so we left satisfied but not totally full. Cedrick was awesome and really made the experience better. He knew the menu inside and out and explained everything perfectly. Definitely worth checking out if you're in Wynwood and want quality sushi without the overly trendy vibe.

We got there a bit before our reservation time, and they let us sit in the smaller dining area as we waited for our spots to open up. We all did the $200 tasting and we were all pleasantly surprised by the quality and variety of the bites. It's 8 courses that range from a nigiri sampler, small bites, and dessert. Most memorable were the clam broth, beef loin and carrots, and the fatty tuna nigiri with caviar on top. The fatty tuna nigiri with caviar was the main reason I wanted the tasting! There is an à la carte menu too, but it was a lot easier just letting the chefs portion out our meal. Would definitely check them out and enjoy a superb evening out!

You can access the mall area from the left of the hotel lobby. What impressed me most was the presentation of all the dishes. They really took great care to make everything look beautiful.

I truly appreciate when servers know their menu well and are able to make suggestions. I can't remember my server's name, but she was just top-notch. We ordered: - Miso soup, (served in a charming, Japanese chawan mushi cup) the flavor was really good and strong. (I hate it when it's weak) - Spicy dumplings. They tasted homemade. Yummy - Shrimp shu mai, good, tasted as it should - Tanaka roll, with extra crispies on top, (I was not a fan because I did not expect it to be deep-fried. if it had not been deep-fried, I would've liked it.) - Peking duck served in an impressive three tier tower that looks like a round Chinese Temple. - Pork Belly Bao bun, this was also a miss for me because I expected it to taste like barbecue, but it was just really salty like they used a lot of brown salty sauce. All in all, I really enjoyed this restaurant, even though I didn't like those two items. Bec But, because of the excellent service, the atmosphere and the beautiful way they served the food, I decided to leave them a five star review. Those dishes weren't bad they just weren't what I expected. We don't live in the area so if we were to stay in this hotel again, we would definitely dine here again.
