Miyako Japanese Restaurant

Miyako Japanese Restaurant in South Miami is a hidden gem that blends authentic Japanese flavors with a warm, neighborhood feel. From the moment you walk in, the cozy ambiance, complete with traditional red lanterns and a welcoming sushi bar, sets the tone for a relaxed and enjoyable meal. The staff are consistently kind and attentive, creating an atmosphere where regulars feel like family and newcomers are quickly made to feel at home. Service is fast, yet never rushed, and the team is always ready to offer recommendations if you’re unsure what to try. The food? Outstanding. The sushi is fresh and well-crafted, with standouts like the Spicy Tuna Crunch Roll and the Diana Roll—topped with crab salad and a sweet-spicy Thai sauce. Not into sushi? Try the Wafu Steak or the Tonkatsu, both ri

I don’t know how I’ve never tried this place before… food was delicious , service and ambiance was great!! Patricia was so attentive and willing which made our lunch very pleasant … my husband ordered the dinner special which was very good - reasonable price - and the sautéed scallops were amazing… for me and to share we had an order of edamame, a kanisu, a spicy salmon tiradito, and Isabella sushi roll which I loved it!! We’ll be back for sure… at least once a month!!! Bravo!

Good food and nice servers, they bring out the orders at different times which makes it a little uncomfortable when you're with in a group. They have an extensive menu you'll definitely find something good to eat even if you're not a sushi fan.

Food and service is so good. Everything we had was absolutely delicious!

I went to Miyako for lunch. The restaurant was spacious, bright, and pleasant. The restaurant has two sections for traditional Japanese seating. I saw them preparing several humongous boats of sushi there. I ordered chicken katsu curry and some sushi. The food tasted wonderful, quite fresh and authentic. The staffs speak English, Japanese, and Spanish – I heard them greeting other customer in those languages. They are very friendly and attentive. Overall I had a nice experience here. I would come back again to try dinner. I highly recommend this place.
