While the ambiance was good I was a bit underwhelmed. The 2 seat tables are way too close together to actually have good conversations and my food arrived Luke warm even though the plates were piping hot. Everything was just ok in my opinion. Not pictured was the creamed corn which would've been good if it was hot. The corn bread was the only 10 out of 10. Drinks were watered down and not worth the price. Service was good and friendly
Business response:
Thank you for your honest and thoughtful feedback. We're glad to hear you enjoyed the ambiance and received friendly service—that's always our goal. That said, we’re truly sorry to hear the food temperature and drink quality didn’t meet expectations, and we understand how that can leave the overall experience feeling underwhelming. We appreciate you calling out the seating as well—comfort and conversation matter, and we'll take your note about table spacing to heart. On the bright side, we’re thrilled the cornbread hit the ... read more
Shiso in Wynwood is a fantastic spot with a truly unique vibe! It is stated on their site as "an innovative Asian smokehouse, merging wood-fired bbq cooking techniques with Japanese precision and Caribbean soul. " The ambience shifts from inside to out, and sitting outside was a treat. Loved the DJ playing older dance music, especially with the violinist playing along - such a cool combination! The decor is absolutely phenomenal and so vibrant; there's something visually interesting everywhere you look. Service was top-notch... read more

Tucked into Miami like a hidden gem that doesn't want to be hidden, Shiso delivers on every level--food, vibes, and a soundtrack that feels like it was curated by your coolest friend who knows exactly when to drop a banger. Let's talk about the food: the Udon Oxtail might be one of the best things I've eaten in the last year. Rich, slow-braised oxtail falling apart into thick, chewy udon noodles that soak up every drop of umami-loaded broth. It's comforting but elevated, decadent but not overdone--like if your favorite bowl... read more
Business response:
You really did write a love letter to the Udon Oxtail (and honestly… accurate). We’re blushing over “if your favorite bowl of ramen grew up, went to culinary school, and started hanging out with better friends”—because that’s exactly the energy we're going for. You already know the vibes, the playlist, and the oxtail hit different—but hearing it from you just makes it sweeter. Come hungry, stay late, and next time, your drink’s on us (like it isn't already). See you soon Dante!
Wow! That's the only word I can use to describe the feeling from the minute you enter the space. Follow the outside arrows to the wonderful gentleman who will lead you in to the restaurant. When you get off the elevator you won't know where to look first. The fabulous graffiti art, the amazing light fixtures, how large the outdoor space is, the magnificent bar? Bravo to the restaurant designer. Now on to the staff...really engaging from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. Our server Chelsea was intent on making our ... read more
Business response:
Thank you so much for this incredible review—wow right back at you! We're thrilled that the atmosphere, design, and warm welcome set the tone from the start, and we’ll absolutely pass along your kind words to Chelsea—she’ll be so happy to hear she made your experience memorable. We love hearing what stood out for you (and what didn’t), and we truly appreciate the thoughtful, constructive feedback. It helps us grow while celebrating what’s working. We’re so glad to be part of the Wynwood community and can’t wait to welcome yo... read more
Brand spanking new and what a beautiful ambiance to walk into! Located on the 2nd floor with a Terraza vibe, they definitely did a great job at the interior design! Miami needs more rooftops and this is perfect, especially that they have ceiling fans :). We ordered a bunch of HH menu items (just at the Bar), and they came out perfectly with a presentation and explanation of what each item is. The drinks were great and strong. HH goes from 5-7 pm. Definitely want to be back for more soon!
Business response:
Thank you so much for the amazing feedback! We're thrilled you loved the ambiance and design—our goal was to create a space that feels just as good as it looks. Glad you enjoyed the rooftop vibe, happy hour bites, and strong drinks (with a side of great service!). We can’t wait to have you back again soon—next round’s waiting!
This is a special, special place. I've now been twice and have had 80% of the menu with two large groups and there hasn't been a single bad dish. Favorites were the Brisket Croquette, Chicken Lollipops (Insane smoked chicken wings) and the smoked short rib. The vibe is crazy cool and I wouldn't be surprised if this place ends up being a dinner into late night drinks mainstay for my trips to Miami. One thing to note, the bar programs are slightly different on the patio and inside and you need to hit up both. I asked my serv... read more
Business response:
We're absolutely thrilled to hear you feel that way about us! It's fantastic that you've enjoyed so much of our menu with your groups and that every dish has been a winner. We're especially happy the Brisket Croquette, Chicken Lollipops (those smoked wings are definitely a hit!), and the smoked short rib stood out as favorites. We love that you're connecting with the vibe and see us becoming a regular dinner-to-late-night spot during your Miami trips! Thanks for the great tip about experiencing both our patio and indoor bar... read more
The vibe and ambiance of this place is literally so good. I haven't ever seen anything like it! We ordered a little bit of everything: Uni rice (our favorite!!), oxtail udon noodle (yummy), sake glazed creamed corn (holy sh*t it's good), salmon belly (we had to order multiple bc omg), hamachi (wow), and lastly the sirloin flap steak (amazing af) Service was great. Drinks came quickly to the table and all were super delicious and to our liking. I must add we had a celiac allergy at our table and he was very caring and mad... read more

Whole experience was magnificent. I was greeted at the door by Danny. He took me to the chef's table where I had a great meal. I had the Uni rice. It was a cozy dish and the flan donuts topped off the entree. Thank Shiso!!
Business response:

It's been a while since Miami showcased an all around 5 star dining experience. Shiso has thought of the entire experience, hitting all the senses at just the right point. The decor transports you to a slice of industrial Miami Japanese fusion. The live DJ does not discriminate between genres or eras, with every song bringing you a piece of nostalgia or those shoulder sways you can't help but make. The art, seating, lighting and texture throughout is thoughtfully curated. And then, the reason you came...the cocktails and ... read more
Business response:
