Azabu Miami Beach

Excellent, delicious and creative Japanese food. The corn tempura is amazing!

Anniversary

The food was mediocre and overpriced. Great cocktails. Excellent service and presentation, though.

Absolutely fantastic Japanese meal with our son. The best place for sushi in Miami Beach. Our server, Frank, was exceptional and his recommendations were spot on. Must haves: tuna pizza, lobster tempura, Toro tasting. And the Zuni was exceptional. Can’t wait to go again.

Pricy but great food experience. The food is fresh and tasty and the service was excellent!

We have eaten at Azuba numerous times - this time we chose to eat at the bar. The bartender Brian, was exceptionally good and lots of fun

Absolutely the best Omakase in Miami area, period.
Love the secluded area shielded away from the main dining area.

Poor service. Overpriced. Disappointing experience!!

Everything was great except our server had quite the attitude and a bit of a memory issue. The hostess and bartender were both excellent, as well as the food. We thought maybe our server was new or just having a bad day.

Poor ventilation inside - walked out reeking of the grill/kitchen.

Best quality Sushi in Miami Beach hands down

Good Japanese food and not so busy. Quiet and comfortable.

Azabu is always high quality. I don’t typically get rolls but I do here since they’re large and a great value ($13-$16). Good service, menu, and manager.

AMAZING. THE BEST SUSHI EVER

Love the food and ambience and service but someone needs to change the music ASAP. Buddah bar type music is what is required. Not teen rock or teen pop music. Fix that and the ambience would be perfect

Amazing food! I am a big Japanese/sushi lover and the food and fish was thee most freshest I’ve ever had.

Best Japanese restaurant in Miami. Authentic food and genuine staff. Looking forward to returning soon!

New favorite sushi spot in Miami!! The ambiance is so cozy, warm, and inviting, while still being chic. We had an 8:30 reservation but were running late, when i called to let the host know, she was so pleasant and accommodating! We were a larger group with different dietary needs (a vegan and i’m pescatarian) Our waiter was quick to point out vegan options and plates that could be made vegan! He also gave us a sake tasting and drink recommendations. For the reviewers on here upset about the order the plates come out, they LITERALLY tell you right off the bat that plates will come out as they’re ready and recommend what order to order if you want certain things together. the wait staff could not be more forthcoming and helpful. All of the plates we ordered were phenomenal. The eggplant, brussel sprouts, and crab rice were amazing. I also got some nigiri. All the fish was insanely fresh and the o-toro was the best i’ve had in a long long time. Apparently they fly it in from japan! This place has all the big sushi/japanese restaurants in miami beat by a mile. Will definitely be back, need to try The Den omakase next!

Buono il cibo e l’ambiente

Was outstanding service and a great meal

Probably the best Japanese restaurant to grace Miami Beach in a decade. Diverse menu. Excellent sake selection. Fabio and Jonsue make it special.

The service and food was exceptional. We are very particular about our sushi restaurants and we were so thrilled to discover this gem. Their food quality was superior. Highly recommend.

Sat outside on patio. Loved everything. We will be back

Absolutely wonderful. Our bartender was outstanding. This is going to be our new favorite place.

I love good Japanese food but I missed in Sofi . Now with Azabu we have got a very good one.

As always Azabu delivers an amazing food experience..
Never disappoints

Azabu brings some innovative options to the traditional Japanese cuisine. Although they offer a broad selection of hot meal, stay with the crudos. Besides tuna and salmon, I strongly recommend the snapper and the fluke. More tasty, impossible.

Excellent sushi. Just. Excellent. Melted in my mouth. And yes, there were other lovely dishes, but that was some of the freshest fish I’ve ever had.

The food tasted horrible. Not worth $700

Awesome sushi experience!

This was a big disappointment. After months of wanting to go there and hearing so many rave reviews, the experience was nothing special. The menu and food was good but for the price it was nothing spectacular. Despite showing up 25 mins early for our reservation, and having the manager check on us while we were waiting, they sat us 15 mins late. The inside is charming but very small with only a few tables being cozy and nice, the other tables you have people on top of you. Outside was nothing special. Just surrounded by concrete. The service was good, again nothing special especially given the price point. I’d be willing to go again to sit alone or with a friend at the sushi bar. But I wouldn’t go back with a group of any size.

Excellent in every way

It’s really authentic Japanese cuisine located at downtown in Miami. Highly recommended.

Half of our food order never arrived!

It was a great place to have sushi, you would never imagine inside the hotel there is a lovely and delicious sushi place is inside!!! Really good! Love it!!

Had dinner in The Den, a separate omakase area in the back of the restaurant. In a word: outstanding. OT should have a 6th star for this place. Japanese chefs and/or Japan-trained only, all of the fish is flown in daily from (the new) fish market in Tokyo, the uni and ikura are brought in from Hokkaido. Pleasant, professional, friendly service without any attitude, and the restaurant is about enjoying exquisite food only. Other high-end sushi places in Miami now almost laughably deficient, overpriced and only serve a purpose if you want to be seen or impress people who have never been to Japan. Cost (we paid $450 for 2 without going overboard on the sake) is well worth it but also reasonable compared to similar experiences in NYC or Toronto. Also don’t forget that omakase in Japan isn’t meant to be a cheap outing either. Will definitely return!

Excellent food, some of the best sushi in town. The Japanese whisky flight was very good.

Sanjay and Henry were the best team of servers! They made my birthday experience just that a true experience and an unforgettable one. I am more than excited to add Azabu on my list of frequented restaurants and I cannot wait to have the honor and opportunity to sit with them again and to try the omokase, which is only Wednesday to Sunday.

Great on all fronts!

Good but too expensive
