Between the local "Thai and Sushi", Miami's Japanese scene has been lacking a staple, a restaurant that elevates the delicate flavors from the sea and the land, with a chef that understands each ingredient and how to transform them into a delightful experience. When we went to Ogawa, we didn't expect much. But to our surprise, dish after dish, they kept hitting the mark. Every single plate is carefully crafted with fresh imported ingredients from Japan, bringing forward delicate notes of umami, salty, bitter, and sweet. The experience was delightful: it's chef's table. If you've never done these before, that means the chef prepares most dishes in front of you, you can interact and ask questions. The detail that many might miss is the track. In most cities in Japan, restaurants are near the stations, so you always hear the train. Yes, the price is high, but I highly recommend this restaurant.

Ogawa is an unforgettable experience. From the private entrance to the freshest fish straight from Japan there is no place like it in ALL of Miami. Can’t wait to come again. (There’s a beautiful serene garden in the back that is a must to check out)

This is the best sushi I’ve ever had in my life. Directly from Japan. The Chef and team are absolutely outstanding. The atmosphere is awesome you feel like you’re in a different place. 5 Stars from me. We will be going back.

Phenomenal, unforgettable dining experience; truly deserving of its Michelin star. Chef Royce perfected the art of omakase with his craft and attention to details. Each dish was carefully prepared, incorporating fresh, delectable seafood ingredients. We were teleported to Japan for the night and loved every single moment of it. Thank you Ogawa for bringing authentic Japanese cuisine to Miami.

Best Japanese restaurant in USA period! Its an amazing dining experience were you have Master Cheff in front of you explaining everything about the culture. Each day its a surprise. It all depends on the japanese fish market what you are going to eat. I recommend it strongly to all foodies. Its fantastic

I had a phenomenal and spectacular experience at Ogawa Miami from beginning to end. From the moment the front door was opened to the moment we drove out of the parking lot, everything was absolutely flawless. The chef curated an unforgettable dining journey, explaining everything with incredible passion and detail—from where each vegetable, fruit, and protein was sourced to the thoughtfulness behind the restaurant’s location near a train station. I was fascinated by every element, from the ambiance to the attentive service. The attention to detail is unparalleled; the staff anticipates your needs before you even express them. The food was an absolute masterpiece—tasteful, unique, and crafted with precision. Whether you’re a local or a tourist, this is a must-visit. Ogawa Miami delivers a 10/10 experience, and I cannot recommend it enough.

Incredible attention to detail. An extremely authentic experience, featuring rare and unique ingredients like baby conger eel and fresh firefly squid. An outstanding FOH team to match. This is an unrivaled dining experience in Miami.

Ogawa in Miami provided one of the most unforgettable dining experiences of my life. The intimate setting immediately transports you to Japan, with its authentic ambiance and attention to detail. Every dish was exquisite, bursting with flavor and beautifully presented, showcasing the true artistry of Japanese cuisine. What made the night even more special was the incredible staff, who went above and beyond to help me propose to my girlfriend. Their kindness, support, and seamless coordination made the moment absolutely perfect. Ogawa is more than just a restaurant; it’s an experience that leaves a lasting impression. Thank you for making our special day so extraordinary. We’ll be back to relive the magic and have already decided to make Ogawa a tradition. If you’re seeking the closest thing to Japan in Miami, this is it. Highly recommend!
