Best Food

This is the best restaurant in Orlando. They have life-changing (very expensive) omakase sushi dinners that tend to fill up weeks in advance, but they also have a reasonably priced bar menu (including the best ramen in town), with a fantastic sake list and homemade Japanese desserts. The bar is small so it is best for a couple or very small group.
