Matsuri

Calling all sushi snobs! I’m a NYer who moved down to Miami and was devastated by the sushi situation here (compared to Manhattan). Nothing authentic and fresh (without tempura and cream cheese), unless you spend a lot of money on a high end omakase restaurant. Matsuri has solved this problem!! Finally found an authentic Japanese sushi restaurant. Even though it’s not close to where we are in Brickell it’s worth the Uber ride. It’s like what you’d get in Japan. If that’s what you’re after, Matsuri is a must!! (Annoying they don’t take reservations though)

Hands down, the BEST sushi I have ever had. I work for a Japanese-owned company and our Japanese employees said it tasted authentic and was the best sushi they've had in the States. Everything was melt-in-your-mouth fresh. The service is quick because they want to fill the seats as quickly as possible - there's always a wait. I would definitely recommend making a reservation if possible. We were on a business trip and went to the restaurant twice while in town - once with a party of 9 and once with a party of 4. We were shocked at how reasonable the prices were! I'm going to be dreaming about this sushi.

The best sushi in Miami, service could be better but honestly they are always packed and this is one of the reason waiters can’t take enough time with each table. That being said, it’s the freshest fish that you will find in the city and price is fair.
