    The restaurant is very large and good for bigger groups. The fusion sushi items are well crafted with a variety of flavors. There are grilled items as well which make it suitable for all tastes.

    The older waiter, bald gentleman was incredibly rude when my friends and I were ordering our food; he outwardly said “no, you cannot order that” without offering any other options or at least apologizing for the inconvenience. The food (kao chicken) itself wasn’t that well made. The sushi tasted fresh though. I wouldn’t recommend this spot just because of the service, there’s better sushi in this area! But, if you’re looking for an empty place where you’ll be seated quickly it may be for you.

    We decided to change place at the last minute and we were so happy we decided to go to Kao last night to anticipate Valentine’s celebration with my sister and brother-in-law . Carlos was super attentive and friendly, food was spectacular, drinks were delicious. We had a few different dishes and All were to die for!! The music outside was so relaxing, beautiful place to go with friends or for a romantic night. Definitely we will go back to try a few more dishes. Thank you Carlos for your outstanding services.

    The happy hour deal is pretty good, the drinks pack a strong punch and the rolls being marked to 10$ was very nice. That's kinda it though. I cant comment on the entrees but we did get a good selection of sushi and I have to say that it wasnt anything special.

    Came to try it out during Miami Spice , we unfortunately left disappointed. Our server was friendly & attentive. The space looks great but was incredibly empty. Figured lunch on a Monday typical slow day. For starters we had the pork bao buns and they were completely unacceptable. The bao buns themselves aren't steamed they are grilled which gives a off putting texture, the pork tasted as though it had regular bbq sauce nothing Asian inspired & the onion were just plain sautéed onion no pickly bite to them . Then garnished with a piece of parsley 😑 The sushi, we got the rainbow roll and the dragon roll. The rainbow roll was good & of great value. Would get again. The dragon roll also wasn't bad but didn't seem like the most cohesive flavors. Overall we thought for the Miami spice deal the sushi was worth it. Dessert was the four leches which was good. Almost a bit too sweet and not the most remarkable. Was a nice addition to the deal. All and all. Wouldn't return except for maybe 1/2 priced sushi on a Monday.

    This place is an Asian fusion w/ Peruvian touch. I went for their Miami Spice lunch. The starter and dessert were ok but the main - shrimp rice - was excellent. Portions were very generous. Other places get a bad rap for small portions on their Miami Spice offerings. Service was attentive and friendly. The music is a little too loud for my liking.

    Beautiful place, incredible food, drinks, staff & service. Our server was Helen, so warm and welcoming, we had a great time talking to her. Truly guided us so smoothly through our experience. The rest of the staff was so attentive with details, making sure our table stayed clean and consistently bringing us water. They are team players. She made us these out of this world cocktails as well. Definitely a new go to spot for me.

    The vibe in this restaurant is electric. It is rare when I can say how uniquely delicious the sushi rolls are. If the Taste of Coral Gables or Miami Spice is going on when you visit, you need to try those menus. Enjoy!

  • 5/5 G M. 11 months ago on Google
    Great Asian/Latin fusion cuisine. You can find empanadas, choripan, Huancaina Sushi, Grilled Octopus etc. Delicious but expensive.

  • 3/5 Lourdes C. 1 year ago on Google
    The restaurant is beautiful, right on miracle mile. The hostess was wonderful. The service was just ok. We had the Miami spice dinner for $45. We chose the sliders as appetizer which included two large very tasty burgers accompanied by an incredible chimichurri sauce. For entrees, we chose 2 sushi rolls each. For being a sushi restaurant they offer a limited selection, but what we had was fresh and delicious. Unfortunately, the four leches dessert we were really looking forward to was not at the right temperature to serve, despite our pleading and it being past 8 pm. We instead had the strawberry mousse and flan. The mousse was delicious but we returned the flan as the flavor was off. As for cocktails, we were not informed of the happy hour special when we arrived. When I asked, I was told it ended at 7 and although we arrived before 7 he would not offer it at 7:05.

    The food was amazing, the service was spectacular, and it wasn't full so the atmosphere also felt nice, another plus was the open bar. While it's not the cheapest restaurant the prices aren't that bad, we were a party of 4 so gratuity is automatically applied for bigger party’s. Also tango sliders and Tiger ceviche are awesome

  • 5/5 M B. 8 months ago on Google
    Yum. We had a late lunch of chicken lettuce tacos, the chicken empanada and the taste of gables menu - pork bao and sushi with the 4 leches cake. Everything tasted fresh and excellent. Was so excited for dessert completely missed the photo! The flavors and textures were great on everything.

  • 5/5 Samay A. 1 year ago on Google
    Food was amazing. Beautiful plating and taste. Everything ordered was perfect. Place is very nice and service was good. You can choose to eat outside or inside and they seem to be pet friendly.

    My first time coming here and I will definitely be coming back soon, the food was amazing and arrived fairly quickly and our server Marcos was truly top notch!

  • 4/5 Francesco F. 11 months ago on Google
    Although it's a strange blend of cultural foods (pastas, steaks, and sushi), they do an excellent job of crafting each one to make very delicious plates. After having come here twice, I have not been disappointed with anything. The food is delicious and the vibe is pleasant. I would highly recommend trying the octopus appetizer.

  • 5/5 Carolin P. 10 months ago on Google
    Service was excellent. I was asked; “if you don’t love your drink please let me know and I will make sure we get it right”. The gentleman; was just amazing. My table was picked up promptly after each course, water refilled promptly as well, the food was delicious, and the price is good the portions are good sizes. Very clean place beautiful inside and outside. This place is a gem, not many like this- usually rest are over priced and the service is not good. Thank You!!!

  • 5/5 G R. 10 months ago on Google
    The experience was amazing. Our waiter Carlos is the type of waiter that brings patrons back to a restaurant just to be served by him. His enthusiasm and knowledge of the menu brings a smile to my face every time he spoke. We have an off menu sushi roll called the sweet and sour which was excellent. Linguini Alfredo was a good meal also. Presentation of the food and desserts was spectacular. The tres leches and flan was perfect.

  • 5/5 ann r. 9 months ago on Google
    Nice Latin/Japanese fusion restaurant on the miracle mile. I stopped in for happy hour. The Blueberry Sky cocktail was very tasty, though a tad sweet. I also had the Huancaina roll which was excellent.

  • 1/5 Beshert C. 1 year ago on Google
    Dylan the owner is very rude. The place is nice the food is ok but don’t expect for any good service. I have been here two times and very disappointed. Don’t come here if you want to have fun. The food is ok not great. They told us they will make it up to us for their bad place they put us and yet never did. Don’t expect anything from this place.

  • 5/5 Cam R. 1 year ago on Google
    Food incredible and their Miami Spice it’s just as if it was normal sized food. Very impressed with the way they handle this place and service. Evian is a great server.

  • 2/5 luz �. 1 year ago on Google
    It took almost 2 hours to get a mix ceviche and 1 salmon roll. Also, I order a blueberry lemonade and 1 Argentinian empanada and never got it. No go good experience 😕 But I can said the mix ceviche was good for this reason I will give 2 stars
