Diner Review №1

My favorite sushi place! Every roll we’ve tried is great, cooked or raw. My husband and I love going on our lunch break and ordering off their lunch menu, it’s a great deal! Other than sushi, they have great egg rolls, spicy edamame, wontons, and sweet and sour chicken.

Diner Review №2

We had excellent food and drinks, and our server (Vivi) was very pleasant and attentive! We'll be back!

Diner Review №3

Miyabi has got to be the best takeout experience I have had in the Twin Cities. When you get your food, it is packaged so well you could air drop it and it would stay intact. The bag itself is reusable, and made out of cloth, like the kind you would find at a grocery store. Really a next level takeout experience, and the food is always incredible. Absolutely become a patron of Miyabi Sushi if you aren't already. 🍣

This place is a gem. Outstanding! Go soon!! You will not regret!! Amazing food, amazing service, such a treasure of a place I’m salivating at the thought of going back there…

Diner Review №7

Not impressed. Ordered for take out on Christmas and the sushi rolls were falling apart, so bad we had to eat with a spoon. Extremely disappointed and not sure I would order again for that reason.

Diner Review №8

Absolutely amazing! Just came here for the first time with a friend (from Minneapolis) and was blown away with how delicious the food was! The tempura appears to be hand breaded and so tasty! The gyoza, sushi, and miso soup were also wonderful.

Not just that though, the service was perfect! We arrived around 11:30 only to find out they dont open until noon but welcomed us in anyway! Was definitely blown away with how nice the staff was. Will definitely make frequent visits to this place

Diner Review №9

We are regulars with Miyabi, but they need to do a better job of checking orders before they are picked up. Missing items is unacceptable.

Good service and good food 💪🏽

Diner Review №12

Our first time at Miyabi in Excelsior. Love our Server Ting, she is kind, friendly, welcoming and checked up on us periodically to make sure we are good. They have a large variety of sushi and appetizers, but we had some stir fry dishes that were delicious. Our over all experience was very good, thanks to Ting.

Always a good option! Definitely recommended

Diner Review №15

I was completely suprised at how great dinner was!! I eat sushi all over the Twin Cities, but this place has now moved to the top of my favorites. The portion sizes were well above average. Everything was fresh. The tempura was incredible. The prices are more reasonable than most other places and the service was impeccable. They also have a wasabi bloody Mary that is unlike anything I’ve ever had. Great diversity on the menu. There’s lots to eat if you don’t want traditional sushi.

Diner Review №17

The service here is incredible. They truly go above and beyond to make sure you are enjoying yourself and especially make your birthday special. The food and drinks are top notch. I highly recommend to everyone.

Diner Review №19

King crab roll? Really? There was no real crab anywhere for you to charge $14 for a 6 roll piece. Mediocre sushi at best. Service ok.

Diner Review №20

This is our go-to sushi place. It's always good. Ever eat a deep-fried shrimp head? Try the sweet shrimp if it's still on the menu. All the rolls are good. Sushio is prepaired right in plain sight. We always ask for Andre as our server.

Diner Review №21

Sushi rolls tasted good, but we're poorly wrapped and fell apart while eating.

Diner Review №22

Good food. I wish you’d change your take out containers to ones that are actually recyclable, Number 6 plastic is not by our provider.

Diner Review №23

Diner Review №24

Best sushi I have in had in years. Just came back from Miami and none of their sushi entrees can compete and their fish has to be more fresh. Extremely impressed and I will be back in soon. :)

Diner Review №25

This is my family's go to spot for sushi. Everything is crafted beautifully and the staff is amazing. Love Miyabi!!!

Diner Review №26

We stopped by last minute just before closing. The host was super welcoming and Tina - our server was so kind and gracious. We had the best coconut curry soup, pad Thai and green curry! Thanks for the dessert, we will be back soon!

Diner Review №27

Diner Review №28

We just had take out and the food was fantastic.

Diner Review №29

Clean busy place
Reservation ahead recommended to prevent wasted time
Food was good
Vegetarian options are very limited

Diner Review №31

We have been here 3 times in the last 6 months. My wife and I love it. She is a Foody and rates the sushi with the best because it is. RECOMMEND the BMW roll. Staff is great and on the spot with service.

Diner Review №32

Hands down some of the best sushi I've had and I'm picky. Those lo mein noodles are 🔥. The house cab is fantastic and I'm a wino. The BMW roll is #1. But seriously this place is great

Diner Review №33

The sushi was good. We got two different rolls, but they ended up being pretty much the same. That was our bad when ordering, since we wanted to try two different kinds. We also got the kobe beef and veggies with rice and would recommend it.

Diner Review №34

Diner Review №36

Best Asian food venue I know in Minnesota.

Diner Review №37

My girlfriend and I decided to try Miyabis on Jan 14th as we were craving sushi. Upon ordering it online, we noticed the order was ready within 2 minutes after we placed it. We thought it was a little odd. After picking it up and tasting it, it seemed fine at first. However, within an hour of finishing the California roll I began to have terrible stomach pain. It had felt like I had gotten punched in the stomach. I was then on the toilet for at least an hour. Just when I thought it was something else I ate, the following day my girlfriend threw up violently multiple times at work and was forced to leave. Today, we’re both still feeling ill and cannot leave the bed. We will not be visiting Miyabis again. If we wanted sushi that wasn’t fresh, we would’ve gone to the gas station.

Diner Review №38

Great Sushi plus other desirable dishes in a cool zone!

Diner Review №39

Diner Review №40

Door Dash so no rating on atmosphere.
Let’s simply say that I now know where hospitals get their Pad Thai.

Diner Review №41

If you like Asian food- don’t eat here.
If you like to pretend you like Asian food- this is a great option. Flavor profile is wan & that of freeze dried cardboard transport bags: straight up Sysco. Very overpriced.

Diner Review №42

we love! coconut curry soup is the bomb.

Diner Review №43

Diner Review №44

Possibly the worst Asian food - no, the worst food - I’ve had in years. We ordered delivery, so couldn’t send it back. After a few bites, into the trash it went. Why? Well the kung pao was strips of dried out chicken and massive chunks of uncooked onion and raw green beans in a cornstarch slurry laced with mouth searing hot pepper. My husband’s shriveled tofu with peanut sauce had no flavor at all. Disgusting.

Diner Review №45

This is our absolute favorite restaurant, must try the spicy coconut curry soup!!

Diner Review №46

Diner Review №47

Toes curling. The food was very good. The service was a bit of a miss, so I excused it for this day cause I was hungry. A bit pricey in my opinion.

Diner Review №48

Placed an online order (on multiple occasions) but this time my order looked off. Ordered chicken friend rice but there were no veggies at all. Weird. Edamame was great however.

Diner Review №49

Diner Review №50

One of the best places for sushi and as someone who is not a fan of tofu, their tofu is surprisingly very good.

Diner Review №51

We enjoyed the lunch sushi special. Great price and fantastic sushi! So fresh and flavorful. Buy one regular roll and get any specialty roll for only $9.99. Definitely going back and will try different specialties each time. I love the way they prepare their eel that goes on top of a roll!

Diner Review №52

Everything has always been great here. The fish is very high quality and the service is very good.

Diner Review №53

Good food but be prepared for a high price tag. Staff was decently attentive, and the atmosphere is chill. But as a single person I spent almost $50. Bathrooms were clean and neat appreciated that. But even with just the food, I skipped dessert and went next-door to the market for dessert. It felt like too much for what I got.

Diner Review №54

Diner Review №55

Diner Review №56

Most bland/tasteless fried rice I have ever had…why is the rice white??? Ordered a side of yum yum sauce that was extra and they only filled it half way. Waste of money.

Diner Review №57

Great tempura shrimp sushi. Orange Japanese soda was good. Ordered house combination fried rice to go. It was ok wouldn't order it again. Everything else was so good that.......

Diner Review №58

Diner Review №59

Delicious food and excellent service. I was even given a $20 gift card when I had a problem while doordashing for the restaurant.

Diner Review №60

my friend and i waited forever to get service. we were seated outside on a Tuesday, so not a busy day. we tried flagging down people and even made eye contact with the waitress many times only to get ignored. not okay.

Diner Review №61

This is our all-time family favorite! Our son loves the special attention he gets, and we have never found sushi that is better anywhere else!

Diner Review №62

Diner Review №63

Diner Review №64

Terribly slow service. Everyone got their food at different times and it was just okay.
It was next to impossible to get service.
Don't even bother going here.

Diner Review №65

Diner Review №66

We stopped here last night on our way home from the cities. They were packed, but the service was outstanding. Our waitress was beyond kind and the food was spectacular. So flavorful. The snow mountain roll was one of the most delicious pieces of sushi I've ever had. My teriyaki shrimp was some of the best I've ever had and my husband loved the kobe style beef. Loved the atmosphere and the display of the food. 10/10 would recommend.

Diner Review №67

Diner Review №75

Fresh fish!

Diner Review №76

I got the pad Thai and salmon nigiri, my wife got the black diamond roll and coconut curry.

I would highly recommend, coconut curry was my personal favorite. Will go back again just for this. Sushi was mediocre, would stick to the entrees next time.

Diner Review №90

Diner Review №91

Wonderful service and food, particularly since I walked in right at closing. The nicest staff ever! Also, if you stop in try the hotate (it melts in your mouth and the flavor is perfect)

Diner Review №92

Had the pleasure of choosing this place for a large family get together/Birthday celebration. Collectively we tried a bit of everything and it was all absolutely delicious. The staff were so friendly and made the Birthday night one to remember. We will definitely be back!

Diner Review №93

It was good

Diner Review №94

Diner Review №101

Gem of a sushi joint in the heart of beautiful little excelsior right on the lake. The apps were delightful and the cocktails superb. Our sushi rolls were crafted with utmost care and attention to detail. Very fun and delicious rolls offered. Tried a couple of other entrees and all of them were delectable. Service was friendly and helpful too. We will definitely be back and will recommend this place to all sushi fanatics.

Diner Review №102

Sushi was just ok. The sake and cocktail list was very good and the restaurant itself is nice but the food was average for the price.

Diner Review №103

Diner Review №104

Love the sashimi and the specialty rolls!

Yum! Miyabi is great! Our experience has only been through delivery and even that was fresh, delicious and quick. I would absolutely recommend Miyabi for your sushi cravings and will be ordering here again asap!

Diner Review №113

Delicious food and excellent service!

Diner Review №114

Great service, great drinks, and fantastic food.

Diner Review №115

Really disappointed. Not only did they screw up multiple dishes in my order but the food is also generally bland and sub par. They also forgot sauce on a dish and an included container of white rice. I would not recommend their sushi either. So bummed. So hard to find good asian food out in the burbs.

Diner Review №116

What a wonderful place to eat in Excelsior....our Server Nicole was amazing and the Entrees suggested we're absolutely terrific

Diner Review №117

Very decent sushi restaurant with a nice app which makes ordering super easy!

Diner Review №118

Diner Review №119

Their "Kobe Beef" is literally beef bulgogi you get from Costco. lol

Diner Review №120

Worst place to order food, the front desk don't take order in time and you have to wait for an hour to get food. Bad attitude people working there

Diner Review №121

Diner Review №122

I love the ramen and robata as much as the sushi. The happy hour is great. If you have kids, order the strawberry soda.

Diner Review №123

Fab menu that crosses a range of cultures and countries -- while staying true to being a first rate sushi place. Drink menu is also top shelf. Highly recommend!

Diner Review №124

I am sitting at my table. I asked for a water refill and a second drink almost 15 minutes ago. No drinks, no eye contact from my waitress despite my rubbernecking to catch her attention. Waiting now for the ice in my water glass to melt.

Going on 20 minutes now without even a perfunctory table visit by anyone. And the place is nowhere close to being full

Food superb. Service miserable.

Diner Review №125

Amazing restaurant, their sashimi was some of the best I've ever had! Great service and nice ambience.

Diner Review №126

Very good sushi. Exceptional service.

Diner Review №127

Super good value. I can't believe it was as inexpensive as it was. Got sake and 4 or 5 rolls. It was all really fresh, chill environment, and attentive wait staff. I highly recommend going here! You won't be disappointed.

Diner Review №136

This is our monthly go to date night location! We have also included anniversary and Valentine's Day as well, because it is so exceptional. The manager Peter and server Angela are just amazing and the sushi is impeccable! We are so thankful to have such an incredible restaurant in Excelsior! Thanks for being so great, Miyabi!

Diner Review №137

Can’t go wrong at Miyabi Sushi! Wide selection in case some of your party prefers other types of food. Lots of screens when games are on.

Diner Review №138

A fine variety of different Asian food, as well as great Sushi.

Diner Review №139

Diner Review №140

They have amazing Sushi and Entrees! Super fresh made to order just awesome!

Diner Review №141

Diner Review №142

very nice

Diner Review №143

Very good sushi rolls. Pleased with the service and the atmosphere. They seem to go lighter on the sauces than other sushi restaurants, but that seems to be because they are very confident in their flavors with no need to cover it up with sauce.

Diner Review №144

Diner Review №145

Los tragos estaban muy buenos. Y todos los rolls de sushi tenían muy buen tamaño y sabor. La ensalada de cangrejo fe faltaba mejor aderezo.

Diner Review №146

Delicious eats and elegant yet modern vibes! All staff were amazing! If you order a roll, note they are HUGE!

Diner Review №147

Diner Review №148

Excellent food, clean place, great service!!!

Diner Review №149

Diner Review №150

I came here a few months ago and I can still vividly remember everything I had. The staff were helpful for my first time and even recommended a few items. It was on the expensive side but totally worth every cent!

Also the atmosphere was amazing because I went at a time when they weren't as busy. Miyabi's interior design was very beautiful.

Diner Review №151

Ordered food there 2 times and was always disappointed. The chicken in the pad thai and fried rice looks like it is pre-bought and reheated, not fresh. I can buy the same slices of "grilled chicken strips" at the frozen section in the grocery store. The sushi is overpriced for what it is and lacks on flavor. It doesn't taste bad, just bland and without any love.

Diner Review №152

Always amazing food...

Diner Review №153

I loved the ambiance and their quick food prep... my beef was a little tough to chew thou...

Diner Review №154

Diner Review №155

We had a fun sushi dinner at the bar. The chef selected the sushi order which was great.

Diner Review №156

We sat at the sushi bar, The chefs were Great, and the fresh fish selections they made were absolutely fantastic!! Our pupus & salads from the Kitchen were Excellent. We loved the lychee martinis Big ALOHA to Miyabi..

Diner Review №157

Best sushi in excelsior by far and the service is always friendly. The Thai Mango dish is great and I'd recommend asking for It with the Kobe Beef. The regular beef was is cubes and much too large and a couple I couldn't even eat (the server made it right with a couple free drinks for the kids). Otherwise the dish would be great with either chicken or shrimp. The Udon with shrimp and veggies had lots of shrimp but the broth was average, might just need a pinch of salt.

Diner Review №158

Delicious sushi, generous portions, enormous roll menu. What’s not to like?

Diner Review №159

Diner Review №160

Consistently good service and food. My go-to for Asian food in the area. If you go - try the Blue Sky Roll - you won't be sorry.

Diner Review №161

Diner Review №162

Struggling, post-lockdown, with staffing issues (like every other restaurant) the service was a little slow and uneven, but the food was delicious and presented beautifully, as always. Miyabi will continue to be a family favorite for us, both dine-in and carry-out.

Diner Review №163

Diner Review №164

Diner Review №165

This is my new local favorite. Really like stopping by on my way home. The owner is awesome!

Diner Review №166

Didn’t get sticks for sushi, didn’t get change, waited for an hour to order something, umbrella outside almost hit me

Diner Review №167

Very good sushi and fare price.

Diner Review №168

Sushi was good, the sesame chicken was bland.

Diner Review №169

Excellent food and drinks

Diner Review №170

Placed online order for pickup and waited for an hour for my food to be ready. Horrible

Diner Review №171

Good food! Took a while for the server to take out order, but I would go back.

Diner Review №172

Been here several times over the past few years and it was good, but it seems to be getting even better. Yoshi roll and Lotus roll (both pictured) were pretty incredible as well as the yellowtail appetizer that is always my wife's favorite. Don't let the strip-mall facade scare you away, this place is legit.

Diner Review №173

Diner Review №174

It was just okay.

Diner Review №175

The restaurant was very clean. Beautiful decor! The service and the sushi were amazing good. I had the curry soup too. It had a great favor with just the right bite of hot for me.

Diner Review №176

Great service and complimentary appetizers were given to us while sitting at the sushi bar!

Diner Review №177

Diner Review №178

Simple, straightforward, and delicious. Great service, too.

Diner Review №179

Everything was amazing! But really out of this world appetizer. Tempura shrimp and veggies🤤Mango mojito was delicious and Ramune for the kiddos and tempura ice cream for dessert. Fabulous dinner. Can't wait to go again!

Diner Review №180

Excellent food with great service!

Diner Review №181

Fresh ingredients, quality food, clean bathrooms, and attentive staff. Overall a pleasant atmosphere and plenty of healthy options.

Diner Review №182

Good food, nice service, great seating, covid safe!

Diner Review №184

Very good food and service

Diner Review №185

A friend suggested this place. We dined in a Monday night. Very friendly staff. Reasonable prices. Food was flavorful and fresh.

Diner Review №186

Diner Review №187

Diner Review №188

We did not notice they added an auto 18% gratuity to the bill (party of two, me and my wife) and then sent out a normal receipt w a tip line. They nearly tricked us into double tipping them after poor service. READ YOUR RECEIPT they nearly fooled us into tipping twice. Scummy thing to do.

Diner Review №189

The best sushi in the twin cities is Sukura's down town St. Paul. Miyabi is a very close second! Delicious 😋

Diner Review №190

Everyone wearing masks. Good food and excellent customer service.

Diner Review №191

Awesome food and great service!

Diner Review №192

This was a great restaurant experience! So friendly, so welcoming! Sushi, curry soup, ceviche, sake, WOW. thank you so much for your hard work and knowledge on your craft!

Diner Review №193

I never been at that place!!! Lol

Diner Review №194

Organized for take out. Great sushi.

Diner Review №195

The restaurant is practicing Covid-19 protocol.

Diner Review №197

Diner Review №198

Very Very good

Diner Review №199

A must-stop for sushi lovers. As someone with Celiac disease, it can be difficult going out to eat, especially eating sushi. Miyabi is one of my favorite restaurants in the Lake Minnetonka area. They have a large selection of gluten free options on the menu including sushi, fried rice, pad thai, edamame, curry, soy sauce, and more. The service is always friendly and attentive and the sushi is fantastic. While it may take a little bit to get your food, as others have mentioned, it's because everything is freshly prepared to order. I really appreciate having delicious, fresh sushi every time I dine here. If you don't like sushi, there are several other items on the menu. The restaurant is decorated beautifully and they practice very safe social distancing/mask wearing during the COVID-19 pandemic.

They are very accommodating to our toddler too, who mostly likes to nibble on plain rice and edamame. Their prices are very reasonable for the quality of food you receive. Miyabi is truly a gem in the West Metro and my family absolutely loves dining here frequently. I hope the staff sees this and realizes how much they're appreciated for being part of the community.
