What People Are Saying About Shibui Japanese Restaurant

In Short – Whether you favor the upstairs sushi bar (complete with a color TV), the cozy, traditional floor pillows and tables that populate the second floor, or the regular tables and chairs on the first floor, it's the food that keeps people coming back again and again. The menu is large and diverse, with standards like miso soup, edamame and seaweed salad are complemented by unique concoctions like the secret-ingredient Macarena roll. Portions are large.
Amazing Sushi, always consistent
by Connoisseur305
I love Shibui. I suggest everyone try the spicy crab sushi. The appetizers are excellent, the cooked food is very good.
The servers are attentive, and many have been there for years and years.
I have never had to send anything back in all my visits to Shibui, and there is always something different to try because the menu is quite extensive.
The place is a little small, though it is very warm.
This Japanese restaurant is among the best in Miami, and they have won awards recently as you can see in the waiting area in the front of the restaurant.
- Pros: Freshest Ingredients, Very large menu
- Cons: A little small in size
Shibui, great sushi - very small place
by William1971
I recently had the chance to have some sushi at a local Japanese restaurant in the Kendall area of Miami and was pleasantly surprised. The interior design is wonderful. Wooden decor and staircases like you would imagine a quant home in Japan might look like, while customers sitting upstairs on a cushion-like seat enjoy their dinner. Food was great the only drawback I would say is how small this place is. You can imagine my surprise when I arrived and found out it's recommended you make reservations. Other than that it was a decent place to have some great sushi and drinks.
- Pros: Great food & decor
- Cons: Somewhat small and gets filled quickly
if you enjoy pissing yourself off, go here!

my first (and last) time I went here was quite the experience.
it was about 3 years ago since I have been to this place, and how funny that things had not changed since.
when we got there the parking was very packed, the person I came with drove a range rover so lets just say she was lucky she didn't crash into anyone.
I forget if we had reservations, but i do remember waiting. At first I was enamored with the look of the restaurant; very traditional japanese dojo like setting. we were on the second floor which was pretty cool ..if you like sitting on the floor but w/e.
the waitress we had was the b*tch from hell. she not only ignored us half of the night, she hardly gave refills and our green tea was cold by the time it reached out table. I did NOT like the sushi. granted it was my first time trying sushi, it had a very repugnant taste and its pretty pricey compared to better sushi places (akashi for one)
oh lest you not forget that if you don't tip full percent for thier AWFUL service you may get hunted down, like i did. I felt she did a very bad job as a waiter and she had the audacity to call me out for tipping her low. I should have not even bothered to even tip her in the first place.
don't waste your money. just cause its pretty doesn't mean its good.
- Pros: none. it doesn't even deserve half a star.
- Cons: parking, service, food, waiters, EVERYTHING
