    Delicious food and great service and recommends by Emily. Love the design of the menu the pink napkins were a great touch along with the quality of the food and selections. The sushi was so fresh. The teriyaki salmon was buttery and yummy. Nice to have dinner inside and go to the rooftop deck and watch the fireworks and after 💗

    Andy behind the bar is amazing, his knowledge, appreciation and mixology skills are incredible. The food is fantastic, and the views of the fireworks should not be mixed. Another great reason to stay at the JW Marriott or just come by for a fabulous meal.

    What an incredible experience. The view outside overlooking the sunset and the fireworks! The ribs, the sushi rolls, the beef with noodles…. Everything had such incredible flavor. We have eaten all over the world and have to say Luis was one of the greatest servers we have ever had. What a wonderful smile and personality. He was so knowledgeable about the menu and his recommendations were on point. Oh and the sake flight is a MUST. I have been waiting to try this restaurant the last three years and it did not disappoint! Highly recommend for a special night out! We will definitely be back and request Luis.

    Restaurant experience and service exceeded expectations, but charging $40 for garage parking at the Marriott for 3 hours is absurd. Sushi is over the top terrific and our server, Valentina charmed and took great care of us. Update: Following my initial review, the management contacted me directly the next day and moreover, reimbursed me for the parking fee. Apparently, the restaurant was to offer validation for parking at the conclusion of the meal, but it was missed. I'm grateful for the customer care by the management and their follow-through in reimbursing for the parking charges. Top notched!

    They want to be an upscale Japanese sushi place (I think), that is what the decor, ambience and price point tells. However, they are an unorganized (no leadership) okay food kind of place. The waiter (Louis) was friendly but poorly trained or led, ages between ordering anything from a glass of water to the actual food, and the two starters came in with 15 minutes apart, and the entres right after. Disorganized and difficult to get in contact with, could be gone from the table 15-20 at the time - so when we had finally eaten, then he noticed I was out of wine... too late buddy. I rarely leave less then 20% in tips - but cut it down to 12% this time, how else will he learn. So honestly Marriott, you can do better. It start with strong leadership and setting a standard that is balanced with the price point and who you want to be. We understand it is Disney and vacation time... but flip Flops, tanktops, and swimsuits and screaming kids are not okay. You have your own private lift to the top floor.. I did not get off at the pool, but the "high end" Japanese restaurant. Food was good though. We paid $200 for two starters, three rolls of sushi, a glass of of white wine and a beer. Would have been OK, if the other things we working.

    Our experience was incredible from the moment we walked in. The service and the atmosphere were excellent. The food was absolutely delicious, my friends and I haven’t been able to stop talking about it since our visit. It’s the best sushi we’ve had in Orlando so far and the drinks were also fantastic! From the ambiance to the views, we enjoyed every second of our experience and are already planning our next visit!
