Best Restaurants for Foodies in Opa locka

Absolutely loved Makoto. It was our first time since they moved their location up to Level 3 of the Bal Harbour Shops. Super lovely, energetic, and the interior was gorgeous. We started off with the crispy brussels sprouts, which were so delicious that we put in another order. The truffle salmon was one of the best dishes I’ve ever eaten — it melted in my mouth and they did not skimp on the truffle. The dynamite hand rolls were out of this world, warm and flavorful. The spicy tuna crispy rice had the perfect crunch. Side note: if you like sweet cocktails, get the usagi — the passionfruit notes shined through in this dessert of a drink. The chilled house sake we got was also divine. The rolls were fresh — we ordered the caterpillar roll, the spicy yellowtail roll, rainbow roll, and snow crab maki. My favorites were the snow crab maki and the rainbow roll. We ordered miso seabass and wagyu fried rice for the mains — the miso seabass melted in my mouth, and I loved the mix of citrus and sweet flavors that came through in this dish. When we got to the wagyu fried rice, I was already stuffed, but it was delicious with the egg mixed in. We finished the meal off with the toban yaki, one of the most unique desserts I’ve ever had. It was a cross between a crumble and a sorbet dessert — the flavors were incredible. The service was amazing and we loved our server Helena. 10/10 experience at Makoto and can’t wait to come back!

AMZING experience. From chef Johnnie to our waiter to the staff seating us. The food was beyond delicious. Lots of flavor lots of texture. Such a great place to be. Will absolutely be bringing more guest back. Could not speaking any more highly of the staff and food and experience. Food and dessert was delicious.

Wonderful night for Noche Buena, excellent ambiance and service with Lucas. Great Latin specials with Chipa, Vitel Tone and a moqueca type dish. Delicious and great pricing. Hope to be back soon!

Quality of food, service and overall experience was excellent. It is loud inside the restaurant however, still a 5 star.
