My son had the black tonkotsu shoyu
Boris P.

I felt like I was in Japan. The food was amazing, accompanied by a wonderful service and ambiance. I truly enjoyed the tonkotsu and my son the black tonkotsu. Everything was incredible! A must come and try!

Restaurant

Loved this cute sushi spot. Went for an impromptu date night and was not disappointed! Same intimate space which cool decorations. The sushi was delicious and a very generous portion. They have great appetizers and drink selections. Staff was super friendly and attentive. They gave us shaved ice to try for dessert and it was phenomenal. Will definitely be coming back.

really lovely experience - took their time to explain the dishes. make great recommendations on what to try. the sushi was great/ items were just slightly pricier but worth the price- the sushi rolls, bento box with onigiri and karats were tasty. my favorite part was the dessert we got the mango/matcha snow- was amazing.

Pleasantly surprised by the authentic ramen with umami flavor , unlike other typical Americanized ramen spot heavy on the salt and make you thirsty afterwards , the shaved ice are refreshing and the sushi rolls use top quality ingredients like toro A must try and will return !

Strawberry milk shaved ice
Lai C.

Very happy to have found this place during my recent visit. First, they have onigiri and Japanese shaved ice which I haven't seen in any other Japanese restaurants. We had the fried takoyaki which was light, tender, and crispy. It was not chewy or tough. We also had the onigiri (salmon and Tarako with mayo) bento box, tenmusu, and tonkotsu ramen. All were very good. I never tried Tarako before and the nice lady in the front provided a sample. The tonkotsu ramen was delicious. The broth was so rich and coated the noodles like it's supposed to. To end the meal, we had the strawberry milk shaved ice. We were already stuffed at this point but were so happy eating this delightful treat. We never had shaved ice like this before. So yummy. The service was awesome. We were waiting to order and I think the owner or manager stopped what they were doing to help us. He provided us the QR code to look at the menu online and provided recommendations. Very nice and helpful. When we were ready to order, the nice young lady was very friendly and helpful. The restaurant was cozy with nice decorations. You could dine inside or outside.

JB , dense rice, almost fake like tasting, def not fresh
Alex M.

I ordered the most basic sushi rolls and got disappointed with the rice quality. It was dense, super sticky and just not flavorful nor tasting fresh. $9 for 8 unequal pieces of JB roll? No thank you

Umaimon Bowl- delish!
Maria A.

Most authentic Japanese sushi in the area! My favorite items are The Six, Tokyo Rush, Tarako Onigiri, and now the Umaimon Bowl! Staff is very friendly and will make sure your needs are taken care of.

Shibuya crossing sushi platter

Food was delicious - we got the sushi platter as well as the shaved ice, but the service definitely did NOT meet expectations. We were first served an incorrect order after waiting quite a long time for it so that was a little disappointing. Not a huge deal. There were a couple of flies hovering around us as well, which is a little gross considering we were inside. But we were seated near the trash, so maybe avoid that table. It seemed there were only two people working and prepping food at the front so it took a really long time even though there weren't that many people for a Friday night. But what irritated me the most was when we had to pay at the very end. After waiting so long for our food (we were there for like 2 hours, most of the time spent waiting), we want to leave ASAP already. But the woman at the front barely addressed us and continued prepping food. We were essentially IGNORED for at least 20 minutes. Mind you she's like 2 feet in front of us. Of course people entered to order during this time and at least 3 people left since she wasn't taking orders at the counter. It was SO ANNOYING!! They need someone to man the front at all times because that was just ridiculous and soured the experience honestly.

Sushi combo platter
Liza M.

Wow! Amazing cute spot! The food was amazing and fresh!! Everything we tried was cooked to order. The service was exceptional. Great BOGO Happy Hour from 4-7. New favorite sushi restaurant!

Poke Bowl
Ashley M.

poke bowl was beautiful & so delicious! the owner is super sweet - loved hearing about his life in tokyo & bringing Japanese culture to miami. since it was my first time, he insisted i try the shaved ice dessert & it was surprisingly amazing - light & refreshing! they had tons of games you can play too. almost everyone in the restaurant ordered noodles & i will definitely go back to try - looked YUM!

Spicy Mami Roll
Megan A.

It was meant to be! We were on our way to another Downtown Dadeland Restaurant when we spotted this place. My son loves onigiri and Umaimon did not disappoint with theirs. I had the Mami Roll and it was fresh and delicious! DO NOT leave without getting the Shaved Ice Dessert! YUM! We will be back again!

The ambiance is very cozy and relaxing. There are so many options on the menu, but we decided to try a few for our first visit and everything was amazing. So creative and suchi unique flavors! I'm a big sushi fan and have tried so many places everywhere I go, but this one truly stands out both unique and creative at the same time. Definitely worth checking it out, and you'll know exactly what I mean once you try it!

Overall I did think that the flavor combinations here were unique and worked well together. Like…read morethe passion fruit + plantains, or honey mustard + avocado crab salad. I will say the sushi roll itself (while not necessarily small) was not all that large/filling, so I would recommend getting something else on the side. I liked that their roll and appetizers had a fun flavor and uniqueness that I haven't seen at other places. But I will say the prices are a little expensive but I guess average for Miami area. I was surprised to find single-use chopsticks over reusable ones. A small detail in an otherwise fairly nice restaurant that did kind of stick out to me. The vibe kind of felt like a mix of a slightly more upscale restaurant, but also kind of minimalist modern if that makes sense? Additionally, our service was a bit slow, with our waiter right over our shoulder asking if we were ready to place our order, no then not being around for the rest of the meal. Maybe it was just an off night though, and the food did come out fairly quickly. Overall I did enjoy my meal here, and I would probably come back eventually when I want something slightly more upscale. But on a day-to-day I would probably go Edward for my sushi fix. Not that the food was bad by any meals. I really enjoyed the fun and different flavor combinations, it's just a little pricy to go to everyday, and in my opinion the main portion sizes don't quite reflect that or have any particular flare to them aside from a colorful/flavorful sauce or topping in them. Recommend a try if you are nearby though to see for yourself.

The quality of the fish is actually better than I remember, and because my roll was just fish and avocado, it really relied on the quality of the fish for the flavor. I really enjoyed this roll. They also were generous with the fish and avocado in the roll. I was pleasantly surprised to find 12 large pieces instead of the smaller 8 pieces like many other places in the area. Most of the exciting flavor is coming from the sauces, but again the quality of the fish is where this roll is supposed to shine. I also tried their seaweed salad. Same as the roll, the portion size is pretty good, but the seaweed itself was under seasoned. I feel it needed a little bit more vinegar flavor. Overall tho it satisfied the craving. Overall, it is good simple sushi. It's good, maybe not the most amazing sushi I've ever had but having struggled to find other sushi places around that seem worth the price, this place is up there for Miami sushi in my area. It satisfied my craving for sure.

We ordered ahead of time, waited for quite some time. My husband drove all the way there, only to arrive home and realize that half our order was missing. Called them to complain, and they are taking off the missing items from our bill. The food we did receive was mediocre at best, honestly Publix does better than what we received tonight. The spicy tuna roll, one of our always staples, was just rice and tuna, no spicy mayo. Total disappointment. Waste of time, energy and money. They don't do delivery and we're certainly not driving back there, but I feel like in instances like this they should make it up to you. It's not about the money. It's about not having the food that you ordered and were excited to receive.

Recently, we moved to this area and have made this our go-to Thai restaurant and we also love their sashimi when you just want some great fresh slices of hamachi. Recently, I tried their pad thai. I am not normally a pad thai lover however, this pad thai is made with angel hair type noodles that really soak up the delicious sauce. Included in the chicken pad Thai is also perfectly cooked tofu and delicious pork rinds. Honestly, its so good that it can satisfy a pasta craving also. Their tom kha soup is also in my opinion the best in Miami. It's not overly watery or just coconut milk like most offerings. Pla tu makes it with fresh herbs and has a little bit of heat mixed in. It's so good. The pieces of chicken and mushrooms are also tender and not overly boiled like most tom kha soups. We also go for the sushi. Their sashimi is extremely fresh and we can never turn down some fresh sliced hamachi here. Lastly, yesterday we tried the Thai Donuts. I am not normally a fan but the waitress insisted we try and boy are we glad we did. They were warm pillows that melted in our mouths and we scarfed them down. I don't think I will ever visit again without ordering them. I love this place. Service is great. Food is consistently delicious and I will always be back.

My score: 9/10.
