    Beautiful restaurant and great service. It’s a nice place to go to to get away from the tourist trap Miami Beach restaurants. The appetizers were delicious but the sushi was a bit dry and bland. If I were to go back I’d probably just order all appetizers.

    We weren’t sure we wanted to try Japón after reading several not so good reviews on Google. We are so happy that we did. Literally everything was a hit. Got there an hour early so we could have a drink at the bar in the courtyard and the ambiance and service was great, and so were the drinks. We sat at a table outside in the courtyard and had a great view of the show which started about an hour after we were seated. The sashimi and the rolls were fresh and very good quality fish/seafood. All I can say about the negative reviews is always consider the source. If you’re not willing to spend good money for amazing service and food, then go elsewhere. When you know, you know, and if you don’t know, don’t worry!
