Reviews
The overall atmosphere is intimate and upscale. Worth a visit, but just know you’re paying for quality and ambiance.
Service is attentive and knowledgeable, helping guide choices and making the whole experience smooth. Rolls and nigiri hit well on flavor and texture, and the menu has enough variety to satisfy both classic sushi fans and those looking for a few creative options.
I like the delicate cooking sense of the chef. Highly recommended.
Paired with numerous bottles of hot sake, it was a wonderful meal with exceptional company. The service was attentive and friendly. It is definitely a local spot that I will return to.
I absolutely love the design of the dining room here. Yes, it is quite small. However, I believe intimate would be a more appropriate descriptor of the space. It is somewhat dimly lit, and the ambience is quaint, trendy, chic.
I was greeted by a warm hostess and sat at the bar along the preparation station as I was dining alone. As this was right at the beginning of dinner rush on a Friday evening, I was lucky to be one of the first persons sat at the bar (within 20 minutes others started filing in). Make a reservation on Opentable to secure your spot!
I thought the service here was great. My waiter followed up with me the perfect amount of times throughout my meal, as did the hostess. Given the size of the restaurant, I was secretly demanding great customer service as it’s less people to cater to. Mirai did not disappoint on that front.
They also didn’t disappoint on the cuisine. The spicy mono was incredibly delicious. The tuna tartare was fresh, sweet, and spicy and complimented the savory, spicy octopus. The fried rice was great, however, it would’ve been perfect if it had more bacon and/or bits of chicken added to the rice as well.
My only small complaint overall is that the two sushi masters did not interact with the diners at the bar. This isn’t mandatory nor is there a sanction that requires this. However, imagine how esteemed we would’ve felt had the chefs mingled with the guests that were directly in front of them, watching as they prepared all of the yummies.
As other reviewers have mentioned, this is not your commercial style sushi restaurant. You have to really enjoy and know about sushi to appreciate this place for what it is.
