We had a good first time experience at Sakana Nikkei! The food was absolutely delicious. We tried the grilled octopus, ceviche, and lomo saltado — and every dish was flavorful and fresh.
The decor was really nice and the restaurant is next to the water. Our server was also very friendly and attentive.
Overall, a fantastic spot for great Nikkei cuisine. We’ll definitely be back!

Okayyyy because when the group chat actually turns into real life? That’s a WIN. ✨
We made it out the chat y’all!
Saturday night was a much needed girls’ night and babyyy!!!!!! it did NOT disappoint . The atmosphere was elegant, the food was top tier (we all ordered second plates of everything we ordered yes we’re all greedy but this is my tribe ), the vibe was refreshing, and the company? Absolutely unmatched. ✨ Plus the dj was lit! Alejandro was the perfect waiter, he knew his stuff! Everything he recommended did not disappoint! We will definitely be back.
A time was definitely had.
Cheers to motherhood, sisterhood, and making time for ourselves.

Amazing experience! The sushi was incredibly fresh and full of flavor, and the ceviche was perfectly prepared — very refreshing and delicious. The quality of the food and presentation really stood out.
Special thanks to Alejandro for the excellent service. He was very attentive, friendly, and made sure everything was perfect. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for great sushi and ceviche. I will definitely be coming back!

I came to Sakana for my birthday on 2/27 and let me tell you… it did NOT disappoint!
First of all, the service was AMAZING. Our server, Alejandro, was so attentive, friendly, and on point the entire night. He really made the experience even better.
Now let’s talk about the food The dumplings? 10/10. The fried rice? 10/10. The salmon? Chef’s kiss. The sushi? Fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. Everything was seasoned perfectly and came out beautifully presented.
And the drinks??! Whewww… let’s just say they had me like oooohhh
Such a great birthday dinner spot. I will definitely be coming back!

This was such a cute little hidden gem in Ft Lauderdale. The vibes inside are great with the DJ, but it was quiet enough that you don’t feel overwhelmed by how loud the music is. All of the waiters were very sweet, attentive, and provided quick service. The food came out very fast, and it was pretty good. I thought the menu and the mix of Peruvian and Japanese cuisine were super unique. Drinks were great too. Would recommend if you’re looking for a new restaurant to try with friends or even family!

An absolute gem — every detail at Sakana Nikkei is done with heart, precision, and flavor!
From start to finish, our experience at Sakana Nikkei was nothing short of phenomenal. We were warmly welcomed by the owner, whose kindness and passion for the restaurant set the tone for the evening. Her husband, the chef, crafted one incredible dish after another — everything was clearly made by hand, fresh, and with so much love.
I particularly enjoyed that unlike most Las Olas restaurants, there was no blaring music and I could easily hear my company and Eddie as he explained anything we needed to us.
Eddie truly elevated the experience. He was knowledgeable, personable, and perfectly paced each course so that the meal flowed seamlessly. His recommendations were spot-on, and you could tell he genuinely enjoys what he does.
The service was basically white glove, and everything came out quickly and well prepared.
We started with the Inca Old Fashioned — a must-try twist on a classic cocktail — followed by the shrimp and pork dumplings, nigiri that was unbelievably fresh and literally melted in your mouth, the hamachi tiradito, short ribs, and yakimeshi with chicken. Every dish was beautifully balanced, vibrant, and bursting with flavor.
To finish, we had the Bruselina de Lúcuma for dessert — light, decadent, and the perfect ending to a truly memorable meal.
You can feel the care, craftsmanship, and passion behind everything at Sakana Nikkei — from the food to the service to the warm, welcoming atmosphere. It’s the kind of place that leaves you already planning your next visit before you’ve even left.

It was my first time at the restaurant for a girls night and I had Diego as my server. He was very attentive, gave the best recommendations, very professional. All the ceviches had great taste and very fresh. All food ordered were good quality. We ordered just about a little of everything. Also dessert was delicious. We will definitely be coming back. Thank you!!

I was excited to try this new restaurant, and overall it didn’t disappoint. Although we had to wait a bit for our table and the food took some time to arrive, it was definitely worth it. The rolls were outstanding—especially the acevichado roll, which was my favorite. The beef anticucho was tender and flavorful, and the lomo saltado was excellent as well. The service was friendly and attentive, and the ambiance was vibrant with stylish, trendy décor.

Absolutely unforgettable experience
We celebrated my sister’s birthday at Sakana Nikkei, and wow, this place delivered on everything. She actually found it on Instagram through @eatwithdami, and I’m so glad she did.
From the moment we walked in, the energy was perfect. The host, Gacole, deserves a special shoutout. She truly is the “hostess with the mostest.” Her vibe was amazing, warm, welcoming, and genuinely attentive. She took the time to make sure we were seated somewhere that felt right for both of us, which made the experience feel thoughtful and personal right from the start.
Our server was also phenomenal. I wish I remembered her name, but her service was on point from beginning to end. Attentive without being overbearing, knowledgeable, and genuinely kind. Honestly, the overall customer service was amazing across the board.
The ambiance is a solid 10/10. Stylish, intimate, and just the right amount of upscale without feeling stuffy.
Now the food… OMG. Everything we ordered was incredible. So flavorful, beautifully balanced, and not overly salty at all. You can really taste the quality and care in each dish. And do yourself a favor and order the grilled octopus. You will not regret it.
We’re already planning our return. Sakana Nikkei is officially on our go-back-again list, and I’ll be recommending it to everyone.
