Description

Tucked in Orlando, this upscale Japanese restaurant pairs refined sushi and robata-grilled dishes with inventive sauces and memorable desserts. Generous nigiri/sashimi platters, shareable apps and a lively happy hour complement a well-stocked bar. The warm, dimly lit wood-accented dining room feels inviting for date nights and celebrations; service is friendly and efficient. Expect premium prices and occasional waits—reservations are wise for groups wanting to sample the broad beverage program and standout sweets.

The food is excellent, and the beverage selection is impressive. The staff is friendly and attentive. This is one of my favorite sushi spots in the Orlando area. I recommend making a reservation, as it can get quite busy. Don't miss the snake blossom—it's delicious!

After having a bad experience at another location, I decided to drop by and take a recommendation. I am so glad I did! Stopped on Thursday and they have the best happy hour around! There is variety on the menu for both small bites and alcohol, which makes it very inviting and an awesome choice. Service is awesome! Exceeded expectations! The bar area inside was packed and a bit outside as well and both bartenders were awesome taking care of everyone. Shelley and one of the guys, were nice, friendly, attentive and made sure I was taken care of. Thank you to both for a lovely afternoon! The restaurant is decorated in a way that is inviting and makes you feel comfortable, relaxed and welcomed. I will definitely come back again and will try it for dinner as well. Pictures do not do the good justice!

02/09/2021 Another great, consistent, and memorable dinner while Our Family is in town visiting. We started out with a variety of appetizers, Tuna Kobachi (LOVE your sauce!! , Yellowtail Kama (Yellowtail Collar , Whole Ika(Grilled Squid , Warm Baby Spinach Shiitake Mushroom Salad (Warm Miso Dressing is to die for , Garlic Crab Fried Rice, and Yellowtail Crudo. We all love how each everyone of the appetizers had a unique flavors of their own distinctively different from the others that weren't flat nor boring tastes, unlike some other places, kudos to you!! Then onto the main dishes that were consisted of variety of nigiri maki sushi, plus, sashimi. We finished up the night with the Dessert Trio of Fried Cheese Cake, Matcha Tiramisu, and Chocolate Mouse Layered Cake. The food was outstanding, the service was even better, and the company is most definitely to die for! Yeah, the foods here are pricey, in order to get a cozy ambiance, tasty quality foods, especially, in location like this, we gotta pay up, because Dragonfly will deliver!!

This a great sushi spot in a beautiful location! the ambience inside is very much that of an upscale Japanese restaurant with dimming, soft lighting and earthy touch of wood and paper cranes. the waiting time for a table was 45 minutes, so we chose the outdoor bar sessions. we went in their happy hour and enjoyed some food from the list, starting with the Warm Baby Spinach Shiitake Mushroom Salad and the Black n Bleu role. the salad was a good side part and came with a warm miso dressing. the role had rock steak, blue cheese, red onions, spinach and jalapeño inside, served on a honey wasabi sauce, making it super spicy. the role was good, but the steak was too chewing. for the main, we divided the tonbo platter- 10 pieces nigiri, 21 pieces sashimi, 2 hand rollers, and 2 maki rollers. the plate had such a good selection of fish tuna, salmon, yellow tail, scallops and more. a Maki roll had salmon, avocado and cream cheese, the other role had shrimp tempura, avocado and topped with meerrot salmon. for drinks, we had a mocktail mojito and a teapot hot green tea. the staff is super friendly and service was pretty fast what we appreciated!

It's a little pricey at around $15-25 per plate, but it's not without justification. There are some really incredible flavor pairings and sauces, unique grilled dishes cooked over imported Japanese Robata charcoal, and a respectable selection of nagiri, sashimi and house sushi rolls. If you're a fan of mushrooms, don't miss the fried Maitaki plate! Suggest going with a party of 4 or more so you can share several dishes and get the most out of your meal.
