We had a lovely night. The ambience was beautiful and the food was good. The service was good but it wasn’t on the level that a restaurant of this quality and price range should have. It wasn’t unfriendly, but it was impersonal, quick and pedestrian. Starting with the hostess, all through the service you didn’t feel Pampered and spoiled. You just felt like another customer in a busy place without the friendly personal touch. This would make me think twice about coming back or recommending the place to high end friends. My friends who are used to personal top class service, not chain restaurant feel. Otherwise we loved our night.

About the restaurant

EXPERIENCE TEPPANYAKI
Japan Inn was established in 1990 when founders opened their first location in Plantation, FL. Since then we have been serving an extended variety of Japanese and Thai food including fresh sushi. We had the honor to be named Best Sushi Restaurant in Plantation by Hometown Herald readers.

In 2002 a second location was opened in Weston, FL, and soon enough it was voted Best Japanese Restaurant by “Best of Weston”.

Our third location was opened in Doral, FL during the summer of 2019, and we plan to keep growing to share our food and entertainment with our customers all over South Florida. The Japan Inn Group also owns Kimura Japanese Steak & Seafood located in Boynton Beach, FL.

Everything was nice, but the only thing was it was a little too salty. Too much soy sauce on the food. Besides that everything was amazing, including the atmosphere.

About the restaurant

One of the most authentic and exciting restaurants to open in Miami Beach in ages, this ultra-friendly restaurant has made fast friends of the neighborhood around Sunset Harbor. The young staff is exceptionally knowledgeable and helpful. Highlights on the lengthy menu of rustic dishes include spaghetti bottarga, orecchiette with wild boar sausage and nearly melted broccoli di rabe pesto. Salt-crusted branzino, prepared in the wood-burning oven, is a masterpiece. The fantastic, value-priced wine list is always a winner. Best to go with a crowd and share a platter of thinly sliced meats and cheeses with vegetables roasted in the wood-burning oven. Order a plate of crackly rosemary carasatu bread, too. Desserts, like the millefoglie with nutella and pastry cream, are as addictive as this new hot spot.

Located in the bayside marketplace, looks exactly as the pics show. Good food, great portions, priced on the higher side but it’s worth it!! Such an interesting menu with great vibes and chill environment where you can relax and enjoy your food with good music at a good volume!!

We had a great meal. We had just arrived that evening and it was the perfect place to have dinner. Food was delish. The sports games were on tv and our kids played battleship from the stack of games they have. Was a lot of fun.

We sat upstairs which I suggest if you prefer dining in an area that’s not too noisy. We ordered the ceviche as an appetizer; it was phenomenal with tostones and avocado. I then had the ribeye as my main, and I’d give it a 4 out of 5. It was really good but not great. For dessert we had one of the crepes with dulce de leche - highly recommend. Our server was the best.
