Hiro Japanese Restaurant

There's is no wonder that this restaurant has been around for 30 years and still thriving. The actual space is very clean and well decorated. It has a great layout with dining around the sushi bar, and seating at the bar so that you can also watch them make your rolls. There was both indoor and outdoor seating and what looked like a full bar. We came in for a quick dinner on a Monday night. I had the dragon roll and a side salad. The roll was huge and very well made. Our waiter was very attentive and sweet. He went out of his way to make sure we were happy.

Hiro Japanese is such a welcoming and lively environment. This was my second visit and the service was amazing as the first one. Kevin was our waiter this time and he was incredibly helpful, friendly and funny. He didn't rush to answer our questions and he was attentive to detail. The appetizers was the best part of our meal I highly recommend the veggie egg rolls!!!!! This restaurant is bigger than it looks and it's guests are diverse. It was delightful to see different ethnicities under one roof to eat, enjoy their time and be serviced!! They are open until 3am, have a bar on one side with multiple TVS, and Hibachi bar on the other with outdoor seating available as well. Thank you to the owners for setting these expectations and delivering on their quality service consistently on every visit!

Good place. Spicy tuna roll: 5/10 Yakitori platter: 8/10 Ice cream tempura: 8/10

Felipe is the best! We love Hiro. Thank you so much for the amazing food and drinks! We will be back regularly.

Excellent food and service . This is one of the few places i have found Orion beer at .

My 1st visit to Hiro. Celebrating my grandson graduation from HS. I will be impressed for a long time. The service was impeccable. The place was clean, the servers were awesome, every dish was amazing. I requested a change to one of my dishes and it was taken care of immediately. We also had sushi, OMG! the freshest we have ever had! We were treated like royalty. An amazing experience!

This is a great establishment that is open late night for those after hour dinners that are hard to find! Food takes long to come out but it is good.

My wife and I were looking for a new place to have dinner when we drove by this location. On a whim, we stopped and decided to eat here. As we entered the atmosphere was very comfortable. We were greeted immediately and sat. Our waiter was very helpful in choosing our drinks and meals, giving us his suggestion based on our input. The food was beyond excellent and really showcased japanese cusine. We shared a Dragon roll, Yaki Udon, and Beef curry. After we dug into their tempura cheesecake, which literally melted in our mouths. We will definitely eat here again.

My friends live around the area so we went out for food and I couldn't have been any more satisfied with what they chose. Went on a Sunday night and while it was empty when we first got there it got busier soon after and it's not hard to tell why. The service was timely, the sushi was great and the restaurant itself was clean and larger than one would think from the outside as part of it after coming in is a bar area. Would come again if in the area

Pretty good sushi restaurant, I am surprised to see they only have 3.5 starts. We went or late lunch/early dinner. The service was fast and good. Food was delicious, sushi was really fresh. The only thing that I felt not authentic is the Japanese pizza and fried ice cream. The pizza was tasty, but not like the traditional Japanese made. Ice cream was bad, taste like stay in an odor fridge for too long.

This is one of my go to places. My boyfriend and I really love going here. We love the fresh sushi & he really enjoys the lobster & chicken fried rice

Gary was nice and our boat for two an excellent choice! We also had a seaweed salad on the side, delicious!

Wait time is ridiculous. Over and hour for our food and I didn't even get mine - my party finished eating and I was never served. I had to cancel the order because I didn't want to be the last and only one eating. 0/10 go anywhere else.

This is my favorite sushi place to go to after hours! Bartenders like Chris and Hugo make it ten times better. The sushi is always fresh and I love that I can go there anytime before 4AM! They place good music and it's such a vibe in there. Try the Kari Kari roll if you like eel! Sooo good!

Looking for a sexy late date night?? Try this place out. I never been in the daytime but my opinion the night vibe is better. Food is fresh and cooked to order my favorite rolls are the dragon rolls and Shrimp tempura is the best!! Staff is extremely friendly and give great suggestions on drinks. They also have other food items as well if you're not into sushi. The drinks are the bomb and you're guaranteed to feel a buzz after the second drink..lol. Overall I recommend this spot.

[Hiro Japanese Restaurant] Japanese restaurant located in North Miami Beach. Apparently it was voted best Japanese restaurant in North Miami Beach but I may think otherwise. Ordered the: Kimchi Seafood Soup Shrimp Tempura Dragon Roll Deluxe Futomaki roll Salmon California roll Coral Reef roll Refuel roll Unagi Don Miso Soups I would say this place was very busy and the ambience was nice. When we got there, there was a table in the back open but there were so many little flies and fruit flies around so we decided to wait for another table. I would say we ordered enough to have a good overview and taste of this restaurant. The sushi was very bland, the rice inside the sushi was very mushy making the overall sushi experience not the best. The eel rice was okay. For me, the best thing that I ate here was the soup but that was basically just seasoning flavored water. The price was decent for the food, not overprice. Overall, 3/10. https://www.hiro163.com 3007 NE 163rd St Miami, FL 33160

The food was absolutely amazing and so was the ambience. We love the dragon roll. We will be back for sure.

Very mediocre food. Don't know what further to say other than I and my wife will not return.

I have been going to this place since I was kid. The prices have skyrocketed! Other than that this place is amazing. Gabriel served us and he was excellent! Thank you, Gabriel! The food was delicious and their vegetarian roll was actually really good. $7 a piece for Ikura was a bit steep for me but other than that amazing place.

This place right by my apartment and I love it! They have good music and a decent food menu! I honestly love how it stays open late, not many restaurants in the area stay open late but this one is great! The food always comes through and they drinks are made great, honestly recommend be it's a staple for north Miami Beach!

Awesome service and the food came out quick. Let me just say the Dynamite Shell I took a picture of is half eaten because I was starving. It's a little small, a little bigger than the size of my fist but god damn if it wasn't easily one of the greatest things I've ever had the pleasure of tasting. I mean my god, I couldn't put that in my stomach any faster. Willingly burnt my tongue. Absolutely delectable 10/10 would eat again twice a week for the rest of eternity. I need this recipe lol

I've been here at least 10 times and have brought others who love it. This is my solid Japanese spot in Miami. I prefer to sit at the bar for a dope lounge like experience Service is alwaysssss superb. My favorite drink is the Hennessy sidecar which is strong af. Sometimes I'll get the hulk which is hypnotic and henessey also strong af I love the tuna crush roll which is a crispy tuna rice roll with jalapeño and Sriracha so it' has a nice kick to it. I love the grilled skewers they have everything from mushrooms to lamb to lobster which is a great add on to your meal for protein Love this place

Terrible service. Birthday girl received her food at the end of the night, they never offered to be complimentary as an apology for this delay. Server did not even understand the menu. Quality and price don't go along here, poor quality for high prices. Used to love eating here a few years ago, no more. I would never come back.

Good sushi. Good atmosphere. A lot of parking. No real complaints. I'd recommend if you're looking for sushi nearby.

I love this place, service is ok... food is good. I love the late opening hours. My favorite is vulcano roll...

I've been coming here since I was 3 years old I'm now 27 & the vibe never changes, the food is always AMAZING!!!!! The service is spectacular! A hidden gem!!!

This was not a good experience. We've been coming to Hiros since they opened in this location. It's more than 20 years. We have friends who love it. We were in north Miami visiting a gal pal who wanted to enjoy one of their lunch specials so we came. What we had to eat was okay. Here's the problem -- my friend and I were served. Her food came out. Then mine ten minutes later. 20 minutes after that (!),we were still waiting for my husband's lunch to be delivered. No explanation. No apology. He went to the hostess who said she was the manager and complained. She said she'd ask about it. I talked to two other waiters walking by. Asked for our server. After another 20 minutes, he left without eating. My friend and I had finished by then and asked for the check. We told the server to cancel his food and that he'd left. When she brought the check, she then apologized. And only after we asked her did she say that another waiter had taken my husband's food by accident. This didn't explain the extra time afterwards when this was discovered --as it never was redone. Apologies at receiving check and payment times were just a little too late. Such a shame that management could not handle this at all -- let alone properly. So much for customer service. And for staff training.

After placing my order for a Sashimi lunch and waiting 48 minutes my lunch still has not arrived. Manager said she would and check. 15 minutes later, still no food. I guess the fish are not biting today ... and neither am I! I left the table so that my wife and girlfriend could enjoy their lunch. They found out that my lunch was served by another waiter to another table that arrived 20 minutes after we did. Really?! No attempt by management to remedy.

Hiro started doing lunch specials again, so we are very happy. Very reasonable lunch specials with nice selections. For the price you can't beat the value.

I always order the Teriyaki chicken but, recently found out that they no longer serve it with the rice, salad, or soup. Ironically the price is still the same (20.00). I think this is absolutely absurd and I won't be back. Rice is the cheapest thing you can buy and they are cheating their customers. At least lower the price if you are going to delete 3 things that are still listed on the menu that the meal comes with. GOODBYE!

In 1983, the original Hiro Japanese Restaurant opened on Biscayne Boulevard in North Miami Beach, Florida. In 1993, the restaurant was relocated to the current location. My first visit there was back in the 1999. It was my favorite restaurant at that time. I finally got the chance to visit it again after 20 something years. The food tasted just like what I remembered. This is not a place for the short period of fame on the Instagram or Tik Tok. It's a place that shows the chefs' workmanship and dedication. I ordered the Yakitori platter for appetizer. The lamb rib chop from it tasted out of this world great. The taste of sauce and right amount of charcoal flavor made it superior. The Nabeyaki Udon had a miso broth with lots of the vegetables. The shrimp tempura was one of the best I even had. I know many restaurants offer Ice Cream Tempura dessert. But Hiro's is the best. The Neopolitan Ice Cream was with the right temperature and breading was crispy and flaky. All items on the menu are with the affordable price. Definitely will recommend this restaurant to everyone I know.

Somehow this restaurant became my routine destination every time I come to South Florida. By all means all categories are in average levels. Food, variety, price, service and ambience. Good thing there is a connected bar and lounge right next door so that you could enjoy the rest of your night after meal.

There's is no wonder that this restaurant has been around for 30 years and still thriving. The actual space is very clean and well decorated. It has a great layout with dining around the sushi bar, and seating at the bar so that you can also watch them make your rolls.

The roll was huge and very well made. Our waiter was very attentive and sweet. He went out of his way to make sure we were happy.

We love food there!! Everything is delicious in a gorgeous atmosphere. But service is not the best. Hopefully they will improve. Definitely going back to this place for sushi.

So this was my second time at Hiro and man I am disappointed. Took home some soy ramen and it had no taste. I mean none the broth was soy water. I had remake the broth, cut up some onions, peppers, garlic, etc use to make it worth eating . I should of known better because the first time I ate at this place the tempura dish I had also had no taste. Very disappointed.

I love this place, have been going there for years and it's always good ambiance good food and great service.

Pretty crowded at midnight on a Monday. Has its own parking lot. There was no waiting but the restaurant had quite a few customers. The aged tofu was nice along with the tempura sauce it came with. My husband tried the sushi sampler and couldn't get enough. Overall good food, vibe & service. Will definitely visit again.

I used to come here many years ago multiple times with an ex boyfriend who used to bring me here for dinner dates, and everytime we came here we always had so much fun! The environment is exciting with nice music and it's dark inside with just a vibe of fun when you come here! Best thing about this place is they're open until 2:30 in the morning incase you have those midnight munchies! Lol! Their JB roll is my favorite food they have here on their menu, and they have a jelly like marriage feel to their menu, the texture just feels good to hold in other words. I love coming here, especially late at night to eat good and I usually order takeout when I come here nowadays. They have a sushi bar and an alcoholic bar in their other room and their new hostess is always very kind! Indoor and outdoor dining currently going on here and not too pricey either. I always get treated very nice by staff, they're very kind here and it's amazing how this place still has the same indoor scent even after so many years!

I want to file a complaint against the Hiro Japanese restaurant. Today, we were eating at this place and everything was normal until they started bringing the food. We realized that the portions were extremely small compared to the usual serving size. I have been a customer at this place for over 15 years, but we understand that many places are doing this due to the economic situation. However, what surprised me was when we asked for the bill, they were charging us extra for paying with a card. I called the waitress to inquire about it, and she replied that it was a percentage for using a credit card. I told her that it was not correct and asked to speak with the manager. A rude and ill-mannered man came over, saying he wouldn't discuss it and that I had to pay the extra charge. He turned around and left. It's shameful that a place with so many years of history would adopt this practice and have such rude and disrespectful employees representing them. Starting today, I will not return to this place, not because of the food, which is very good, but because of people like this manager who clearly lacks administrative skills. Please do not go to this place anymore we don't have to pay for the credit cards. Imagine now if everyone do this we will pay a monthly fees for more the 300. Dollars a month. no way !!!!!

Found a piece in my food. Already chew it and hurt my gum. Very dangerous. Be careful

I was looking for a late sushi dinner and saw this place was open until 2:30am!! It was hard to believe so I called them and, yes, they were open late! So, not following my usual diet timetable, a couple friend and I headed to Hiro at 11pm for some sushi! The place wasn't that busy but it sits adjacent to a couple bars and clubs so the traffic and music from there makes you feel you are eating at a super busy place! The menu is huge; tons of rolls, nigiri is expensive, $3.50 to $5.50 per ONE piece so budget carefully. They have a couple value packages combining sushi and sashimi which I recommend. The quality of fish is decent, not A+ but definitely not B or lower. If you are looking for a decent place, good quality sushi or sashimi and something that's open when everything else is closed, Hiro's is the place.

great place, our serve Eagor was amazing and his manager Jamal was just as great. I recommend this place to everyone. food was amazing !! ambiance was perfect !

I highly recommend Igor as a server. He was sweet and attentive. The ambiance was nice and Jamal made sure things ran smoothly. The entrees are 10/10!

Robata: baby octopus-$5.95 squid-$5.95 scallops-$5.95 ( each ) small but tasty 5 stars for food , music , open late and good peoples working here .... 1 star out for service, but they still good :) Lamb chops $14.45 is very good and needs to try .

To say I was annoyed is an understatement. The service at this restaurant was extremely slow to the point that food came out cold. One of the people in our group got their wine glass taken before we were able to finish the bottle, as well as their water that never got a refill. We ordered the garlic steak because it came with a miso soup, only for the waiter to tell us after we got the food that they don't do that any more and that we must've had an old menu. Finally, the food was overpriced for the quality that we got. I didn't have high expectations going to this place, and I was still disappointed. The ambiance is very causal and the waiters were nice enough, but those were the only "redeeming" qualities for this establishment.

I was driving to my usual lunch spot on the weekends, when decided to park by Hiro. A quick glance at the menu made me stay. TBH, the colorful menu with great pictures got imprinted in my psyche once I realized it was very vegan friendly. Good sign. So I started with miso soup. It was flavorful, but warm (insert sad face emoji here). Then, the Shitake Mushrooms Yakatoris arrived. A sort of grilled kabobs style. There were very good, but left me craving for more. Next time I can have like 5 or 6. Or 7, Perhaps? My third selection was the veggie roll. Big portions, but zero flavor. How can someone mess up a veggie roll is beyond me. Can I suggest, maybe, using fresh veggies, since is a veggie roll?

Don't like the service, Really disappointed.. bad customer service.. rude waitress with attitude .

Food was excellent, we had the boat for two and it was delicious fresh and nicely presented. Service was the best ever. Iris was our server and she was attentive friendly and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend this restaurant.

Took forever to be seated, once seated I asked for a drink me and a friends. They got their drinks and nothing for me. When he came back around, I reminded him about my drink. No apology or nothing. Dropped it off like he didn't give to craps. We had to ask for refills numerous times, the food was mediocre and we had to literally beg for the check. When he came back around, I asked if he could split it for us and let me tell you. The attitude that came out of him was enough to make anyone mad. I told him to forget about it and throw it all on my card, if it's that much of an inconvenience. Disgusting person, mediocre food, slow service. DO NOT GO THERE unless you want garbage food and a rude waiter who doesn't seem to care about his job. Fist time I've walked out and not left a tip. Why leave a tip after the most horrific service I've ever had?

Before moving to start a work gig, my friends decided to meet up and grab a bite to eat. It was late Sunday and we decided to try Hiro. We were able to be seated pretty quickly. The drink menu was pretty extensive and I decided to order the perfect margarita. I was a little surprised that mezcal tequila was used and that didn't make the drink too enjoyable for me. I ordered the chicken teriyaki and it came with soup and salad. Soup was a perfect way to start the dinner. The chicken teriyaki was bomb!!!!!!!!!! Best teriyaki I've had in awhile. The only downside is the veggies tasted a little sour. I wanted to try the fried cheesecake but to my dismay they were out of it for the evening. Overall pretty good. I will definitely come back to try the sushi.

Very dissatisfied and poor dinning experience... waited 45 min for the wrong food...service offered no solution ... no manager visited to help until I requested a visit. His apology was sincere Put

I had not been to Hiro for a few years ago,it use to be one of my favorite sushi restaurants but I was very disappointed in the quality of the food it was definitely not what it use to be. It really saddened me because I was so excited to eat there again. I hope the quality gets better .

YUMMY LOBSTER. great go to restaurant for some good Chinese marked at the perfect price with a huge BANG for your Buck!! I didn't get all the images, but the lobster meal comes with salad + miso soup, the entree & your choice of dessert. Lobster came w delicious butter and yum yum Sauce, we also had dragon roll to go with it. Over order or not, I'm taking the REST TO GO. Mushrooms so dang tasty ****

I love it here. The food is great and the customer service is even better definitely has a great atmosphere and our server Chris was very attending and polite would definitely recommend eating here for a date night or just a casual outing.

Hiro Sushi is like the local restaurant around the area, with a bar area and outdoor sitting, this place is good for a quick, affordable and good lunch or dinner. They have a full bar, but their house wines are good and around the $7-8. Also, their whole menu is very affordable and big enough to share different dishes. I like their vegetable roll which is the cheapest vegetarian roll I have seen at a restaurant so far! Their fried rice is delicious and big enough for 2-3 people to share! I'll say the only thing why I wouldn't give it a 5 stars it's because they need more servers

If I could give zero stars, I would. We went to this location to celebrate my sister's birthday, where we quickly realized service would be astronomically slow. Menus were not taken off the table until well into our meal. Appetizers came out quickly, but we waited for OVER an hour to receive our first dish. They brought out the food two people at a time and the first two people were served almost half an hour in front of the last two. To top it off, an hour and a half after ordering we realized that we were STILL missing two sushi rolls. Other parties of similar size came, got served, and left. We had to hunt down our server in order to get more drinks, let alone to ask where are our food was. No attention from our server whatsoever. And when we asked for help from a different server named Emre, since ours was no where to be found, he had an attitude and dismissed us. His treatment and lack of professionalism was just the icing on the cake. I'm writing this review in the 15 minutes it's taking for our check to come to the table. Food was fine, but it was not good enough to justify the wait, the lack of drinks, and awful service. We will not be returning to this location yet. If you haven't had the chance to visit, trust me, you're not missing out on much.

Been going to Hiros many years. Confused with their checks. They offer 5% off for cash, yet even when you pay cash they still charge 2.99% CC fee. I didn't use CC and I didn't get 5% off. I claim false advertising

For years my family and have visited Hiro for some amazing Japanese food. The service is always great, the ambiance is very nice and clean. The food has stayed on point and consistent for more then 18 years now. It's a huge perk that it stays open late.
