Sushi Cafe & Shilla Korean BBQ

Came here for lunch on a random Thursday and had a very pleasant time. I love the variety of options that the restaurant offers, from classic Korean and Japanese dishes, to even KBQ and Hot Pot. I ordered the Korean Bulgogi Lunch box and some Kimchi Mandu and I left very full as satisfied. The miso soup that came with the lunch box was a perfect appetizer. Light and fragrant. All the side dishes that came in the box were well made and paired well either the main meat, which was well cooked and very flavorful. The Kimchi Mandu were also well made and up to my standard. I also ordered Iced Green Tea which was very natural and not too sweet. The staff was attentive and respectful. It’s a wonderful spot if you’re craving Japanese or Korean food, or even both hahahaha. I will definitely be back 10/10

I’m leaving an honest review in hopes the restaurant can improve. We had two people and ordered Combo B, which seems intended for three people since it comes with three servings of rice. As you can see from the pictures, both the quality and quantity of the food were average at best. The taste was just okay — nothing memorable. But what really stood out was the price: $90 for a plate of meat like this is just not acceptable. I understand that prices are going up everywhere, but for that amount, I expected much better quality and portion size. Overall, it’s overpriced and not worth trying. Service was good.

Our next family food adventure takes us to Sushi Cafe & Shilla Korean BBQ located in Miami with a rating of 4.3 and over 1,177 reviews, this restaurant offers you South Korean cuisine. We go with a group of 37 people, but they are not prepared for that amount of customers. It took us a while to eat, but it was worth the wait, each dish was better than the next with the different flavors to delight in. The customer service was excellent, the only thing was that there were too many orders at the same time, but when the food arrived we all forgot about the delay for one simple reason: everything was delicious and incredibly exquisite. This is place is very recommended if you like Korean cuisine. I want to say thanks to the chef for this incredible experience.

Saturday evening my friends and I came in to celebrate a birthday. If I could leave more than 5 stars I would! From the moment we entered we were treated with the upmost care and respect. When greeted at the door, Davi was so warm and patient, then followed by our server Josue who continued the amazing service throughout the night. Everything was amazing. The food, the atmosphere, we were even able to try soju and another wine before we purchased just to be sure we would like them. Everything was done with a smile. And the staff even sang Happy birthday to my friend. 10/10 we will be returning!

Amazing food! Great service and very familiar ambience. Amazing the fact that there was NO music! 🤭No sound! So we can talk with each other!

The food was delicious! All banchan dishes are really tasty and of course the meats and pancetta too. The jajangmyeon is super good! And nothing better for this food than complementing it with a good cold beer. The service was excellent and fast! I can’t wait to come again and try the kimchi stew with pork.

I had such a great time at this place! The food was absolutely delicious—everything was fresh, well-seasoned, and cooked just right. The quality of the meat really stood out, and the side dishes were super tasty and kept coming. What really made the experience special was the service. The staff was friendly, helpful, and made sure we had everything we needed without being too overbearing. They even gave us tips on how to grill certain cuts for the best flavor. The vibe of the restaurant was fun and lively, perfect for a night out with friends or family. It’s the kind of place where you leave full, happy, and already planning your next visit. Highly recommend if you’re craving good Korean BBQ!

Josue is the best server I've ever had, the absolute GOAT. Great suggestions from the menu with a wonderful and thoughtful presence every time he graced our table (not to mention the free soju samples and dessert ❤️❤️❤️). The food itself absolutely floored us as well! Genuinely had the five of us wondering if we should make this a monthly/annual tradition, haha! Thank you so so much for the amazing experience!!

Greatest sushi restaurant I've ever been to. The service is amazing, I've been there so many times for the staff to remember exactly what I like. Staff is very nice and helpful to any requests you may have. I order the Crazy Tuna Roll, as well as the Tuna Tataki, and Spicy Tuna Fried Rice. Always ordered with a side of ponzu. I have tried ponzu sauce from other places and I can definitely say this place has the best ponzu ever. The ambiance is great, quiet, always some Korean street food video playing on the tvs around the restaurant. There's a hibachi next to the main seating area if you're interested in cooking yourself some food, haven't tried it as I'm always eating the amazing sushi they offer. Would DEFINITELY recommend 11/10

My family and I came to enjoy some Korean BBQ to celebrate my child's drum performance. My sister and niece are both wheelchair users, and they were able to accommodate our group with no problem. They came and got the drink orders quickly. They brought out all these yummy pickled veggies that everyone enjoyed. The crab Rangoon were light and crisp. We did the short rib and churrasco bbq. My sister had ramen stir fry and my child had sushi. Everyone really enjoyed the food. Everything had great flavor and was fresh. Can't wait to come back!

Food: Absolutely outstanding quality of food for the price! The food is made to order and very fresh. Large menu and they have a little bit for everyone from sushi, ramen, hot plates, cold plates, Korean drinks, and more! We did not do the Korean BBQ option because we did not have the time but I really like how you can chose the menu items cooked and they bring it to your table. Service: Lovely service since the moment we walked in. Our server explained all the questions we had and he even recommended many dishes for us to try. Ambiance: Very chill vibes nothing fancy and on the weekends they play music which is awesome! It's not very large so I imagine on the weekends it gets packed. Highly recommend! ^.^

We really wanted to visit this place after friends recommended it but we didn't enjoy it! The service since we got there was careless and slow. The sushi roll options look interesting but the flavors and combinations felt like something was missing, it was like just ok to eat but not to come back. I went with my kids and they ordered from the kids menu which they enjoyed.

good food, quick service, cheerful ambiance the price was solid and the portions are huge!!

It has been very difficult for me to find Korean food in Miami and this place has been a go to for me when I'm craving korean comfort food. They have a great variety from tofu soup to kimbap to seafood pancake and korean BBQ. All of the food taste great too and never disappoint. The only complaint I have is the service can be slow at times even when it's not busy. The wait staff doesn't stop by as often to check in and can be hard to flag down but they are all nice and friendly. The ambiance is very casual and gives off a casual sit down vibe. The restaurant is split into 2 sections, a smaller side with sit down tables and the other larger side with more Korean BBQ grills. Overall, I love coming back here when I'm craving Korean food.

We had the pleasure to visit a near by place we have never been to on a Saturday early evening. We were greeted by: Manny What a true delight and courteous gentleman! Manny, explained the different choices on the menu of cuisines, they have to offer. Japanese and Korean We tried for the first time here the Korean barbecue. We have been to other states but never to a location near us. This place was AMAZING AND DELICIOUS!! Well worth the price! $$$ GREAT QUALITY!! Tuna Tartare - Excellent Fresh Hot Sake - Perfect served at the perfect temperature As we cooked our meals on the grill. The staff constantly were checking on us asking if we needed anything else. The beef, chicken and pork belly - fresh no discoloration totally fresh The service was on point constantly! Drinks refills water constantly checking on all there guests. This was by far an amazing magnificent experience!!! We usually eat in the Broward Couty area for Japanese cuisine but this place proved us we have a quality place near by in Miami without having to leave Miami Dade County. We will be returning to try other meals. Looking forward to another delightful experience. Cheers you all! Enjoy!

!Real Honest Review! I love, I mean LOVE Korean BBQ.. Make it my mission to visit a local spot if the city offers it. 1) The Manager and serving staff are nice and pleasant.. they were sweet and courteous. 2) The Menu, meh.. Doesn't offer the "All you can eat" model that's successful and traditional. Also, not enough Bulgogi options 3)The food, the protein was bland, and lacking. I say this with no Joy, but I'm being honest. Maybe I caught a bad batch they forgot to properly season and marinate? Only due to the staff, I'd giv it another shot someday. Just not the best first impression. I have no joy in this review just wanted to be honest about my solo experience here.

This place is so good! The quality of the meats for the BBQ were really good, all the sides were tasty, and so were the appetizers. The amount of food we got for the price was perfect! Ambiance is nice and low-key. Our server was the sweetest and everything came out of the kitchen pretty quickly. Highly recommend this place if you're looking for a more authentic KBBQ experience.

I love this place. Jt really is a hidden gem. The service is great, friendly people, and the food is delicious. I love the number of options they have and the variety of each thing. I've had the Korean bbq (amazing) and their sushi. This time I had their sushi. The only thing I will say is that my shrimp tempura wasn't that crunchy like it normally is and they put just a little bit too much cream cheese this time around but it was still so good. The only reason why I didn't give 5 stars was because their prices are a bit high and they don't offer specials even during "happy hour" time. But I will be coming back for sure!!!

came here on a saturday night and it was very busy I definitely recommend to arrive early and I do not recommend this place for large groups. The service was slow and they never brought us the miso soup that was a side to a hibachi order. other than this the food here is good, the Japchae noodles have great flavor & the hibachi salmon and steak was very good.

The reviews are quite interesting to read. We visited during Sunday lunch hours and requested seating at the BBQ table. Being a cook myself, I understand that iron grills should not be fully washed, but they should at least be wiped down. Unfortunately, the tongs given to us still had old raw meat stuck to them, and we had to request a replacement. As I looked more closely at the restaurant, I found it quite disappointing. The walls, doors, and even the chairs were covered in grime, especially concerning since raw meat is handled here. If the lobby is in such a state, I shudder to think about the kitchen's cleanliness. Overall, aside from the poor cleanliness, the service was also unsatisfactory.

Tried few classic Korean dish. Services are nice, reasonable pricing. Crispy tuna roll is different and it's actually better than expected.

This is the worst restaurant I have ever been to. The place is dirty, the service is horrible, and the meat quality is poor. I would not go back even if they paid me. This place should be closed down for filth.

Shilla's Korean BBQ delivers a satisfying experience at an affordable price. The food is delicious, with tasty side dishes complementing the meal. The overall vibe creates a fun dining experience. Definitely a good pick for a flavorful and budget-friendly Korean BBQ outing.

I love how you have the option to do Korean BBQ or just sit at the regular side of the restaurant. This time, I sat on the regular side (but I've done Korean bbq in the past and it was a fun and interactive experience). I also order take out from here often and the food tastes just as good. Everything that I ate this time at the restaurant was tasty but my favorite was definitely the Kamikaze roll. The rolls are large and taste fresh! My only critique would be that for the Thai Iced Tea that I had, the type of ice that they put makes it melt quickly and water down my drink - I will probably get it without ice next time. Also, the service was a bit slow and the restaurant wasn't busy. But I will continue to order from this Korean spot, they have a good variety of options and the flavors are always consistent!

Who doesn't like Korean food, seriously it's like the perfect mix between Chinese and Japanese. When we first sat down we were immediately greeted by our server and he brought our drinks promptly after we placed our order. He was as helpful in answering my question about what type of seafood is in Soontofu Ghige Soup and was very friendly. Both the sushi rolls were delicious and a great portion, I loved it! The Soontofu Ghige Soup wasn't too spicy and there was a variety of different seafood, however it came off kinda bland, definitely needing more seasoning. The only downside to my experience were the two tables next to us who finished eating, paid and left, but both tables weren't picked up. Therefore we went our entire meal surrounded by half eaten food from the other two tables, which was unappetizing. I would understand if the restaurant was busy, but it wasn't! Overall, despite this flaw which I am assuming doesn't happen often, I had a pleasant experience. The specialty sushi rolls was delicious and the server was nice.

Not worth trying I went to this restaurants several times not because I wanted to but my colleagues wanted to have Korean foods and Soju. There is no Korean restaurants near Doral except this. Last night(7/6), I went again for same reason. We ordered soft tou soup and pork belly. Tofu soup was served in about 10 minutes and surprisingly it was not too bad. However, pork belly took more than 30 minutes. I did not understand why it took so long to bring raw meat. The pork belly they brought was not belly part, but it is some other part of pig. They served cheap part of pig as pork belly and the meat was dry and very chewy. This was really bad. The server was not attentive, after she took the order and brought the food she just left and went kitchen and stayed there.

Very good Korean food. Sushi is ok, fish could be a little better quality and fresher. My friend got rice cakes that came in a spicy sauce and it was pretty good. Very simple dish but the rice cake was soft and chewy And paired very well with the red sauce. They also have soyu which is a traditional Korean wine/liquor that is slightly sweet balancing the spicy dish very well. The staff is very attentive and cordial. The service is also pretty fast. Overall had a good time. Will return to taste more of their Korean dishes.

Tried out their KBBQ and was very disappointed... got the Combo C and some other soups/dishes for a party of 6. Food was overpriced and the services was lacking. We cooked all our meat on the same grill and by the 3rd type of meat we had, it was burnt due to the build of crust and grease on the grill. The meat itself was good: 6 types of meats about 3-4 pieces each. But for $110??? This ain't it. Honestly could've paid at most $80 that, just because how many pieces of meats they gave us.

Great food and service!! We ordered 12 sushi rolls and lots of authentic Korean Dishes!!

This Korean BBQ place is really good. Cooking your own food is a great experience. We ordered the Combo B meat to share for 3 people ($70). It was good and filling, but the price was a bit high. It came with Short Rib Galbi, Rib Eye Bulgoki, Prime Brisket, and Pork Belly. This entree came with 3 sides, sticky white rice, and other ingredients to season the meat with. For sushi, we ordered the Crazy Tuna Roll and the Samba Roll. Both were absolutely delicious. The Crazy Tuna Roll is raw while the Samba Roll is fried in some parts. I definitely recommend giving at least 1 roll a try. For dessert, you HAVE TO TRY the Thai Donuts! They are the perfect bite size. They are served very warm with a sweet dip and powdered sugar on top. They were soooo yummy!

The food wasn't that good The chicken tasted like shrimp and it was super dry. The service was slow even tho the restaurant is small and there wasn't a lot of people.

Everything we get is DELICIOUS! Amazing service, feels like you're right at home. They have amazing portions for all plates and a chill vibe. Ramen is amazing, sushi is delicious and desserts are delicious!

Back in Miami for my first business trip of the year. In 2019 and 2020 I was in Miami 2 times per month and once I found this place I always tried to get in here for dinner. I ate here on 3-16-22 and was really disappointed. I had the sushi dinner with additional sushi and a roll. Also asked for the Korean vegetables too. The waitress was not pleased with my ask and said that they only come with Korean dishes. I said I know and of course I would pay. The rice for the sushi was dry, cold and appears to have been left over from lunch. Their prices went up but so has everyone else's so that was not a shocker but add that the sushi I have come to expect was just not good was very surprising. Also the sushi dinner used to come with Miso soup, but no more. Looks like I will limit this place to Korean food and eat sushi elsewhere.

Besides my better judgment I decided to give Sushi Cafe one more chance... what a mistake. Ordered through the Yelp app and the order got here 15 minutes late. Again, what's up with the food tasting old? You can totally taste how hard the sushi rice is, as though it was left out for hours. The quality of ingredients has plummeted. That's what I get for trying to give an old favorite the benefit of the doubt. A very expensive AF sushi dinner for $67. I need to take my own advice and STOP spending money on Sushi Cafe. Recommendations anyone?

The better KBBQ compared to others near. I love their side dishes and their soups. Service is good there are buttons to call for service if needed. The place is a little dark but not too dark just right for the vibe. I love the music they play it gets me hyped up about the food lol.

Ordered 2 specialty rolls and they were pretty good. I'm usually very picky and these rolls seemed fine and tasted better. The service was nice and prompt. Didn't go inside myself but the parking lot ambiance was well lit.

My friends and I have been going to Sushi Cafe for over a decade. It's always a fun place to go, eat, celebrate events, and hang out. I've eaten most of the food there and everything is delicious. They have Korean, Japanese, Thai, all kinds of Asian food. It's hard to say which dishes are my favorite because everything is great! I love their sushi, soups, bbq, desserts, fried rice, noodles, sakes, and more. My friends and I used to sing karaoke there too and the staff members were all really friendly, sometimes even jumping in to play the guitar for example. The owners are really nice, genuine, and welcoming. I am really thankful and glad that the business continues to do well. Oh, also, parking is free and plenty. They accept all kinds of payment.

This is the best Korean restaurant I've ever gone to. The food in this place tastes so good. And the waitress is so nice. The only problem is that it takes long to get your food but it's only because it's a family owned business. The place also looks so nice and clean. It's decorated traditionally. (Ps: if you ever go to the restaurant try the bulgogi it's good)

not waste your money poor service will never go again. nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

Beef Bulgogi was good and service was good. Ambiance is nice like the Jesus sign and very clean personal bathrooms. There is karaoke on Fridays. Only negative were the chicken dumplings tasted frozen and lacked flavor.

this is my favorite kbbq when i visit miami i like the steak and pork belly personally and it's nice atmosphere to enjoy and talk to friends

Sushi Cafe is hidden and doesn't look like much but they have a ton a great food options. In my opinion, Sushi cafe has the best Crab Rangoon I've ever had! You can enjoy some Korean bbq there and get a grill or simply get a table and order from the menu. Good food and good prices.

Best Korean bbq I've had in awhile Great work they maintain the ambiance that traditional Korean BBQ restaurants have the, conversation around the food while it's cooking right before you it'll sure create an evening to remember

Walking in it just looks like a sushi shop, if you want to cook your own Korean style food, venture over to the other side of the restaurant. Being first timers we got the bulgolgi to cook ourselves. We also tried the volcano roll and ordered an edamame appetizer. The edamame portion was generous! The volcano roll was not my favorite but the bulgolgi made up for it. My pallet wasn't ready for the sides that came with the bulgolgi but the meat, lettuce, sauce, and rice were delicious. We also put jalapeños and onions on the grill and those were fabulous on top of the lettuce wraps.

We ordered over the phone and then picked up our lunch. The food was very good. Parking is limited. I wouldn't eat inside because is too tight and with COVID around I rather avoid it. That's why I ordered to go. Prices might seem high but is worth it because their portions are big.

Sushi cafe: I've literally been coming here for over 10 years and mostly positive reviews but the last few times I've eaten in and ordered from, it hasn't been the same. Last time we dined in, there was a long gap between the soup appetizers. I understand that maybe the Tom Gha soups take longer to prepare than the miso but wait till they are both ready to bring out so that we can both eat our soups at the same time. It prevents from that awkward let me watch you while you eat and wonder when's my soup coming out. And it was a long gap. Guess what? The soup came out with all the sushi at the same time. Not cool. Your excuse? We're busy tending to the other side of the restaurant the Korean BBQ, Shilla. Sushi was just ok. Fast forward to today's delivery and of course our sushi with no soy sauce at all. Second time this happens when I guess they confuse the eel sauce with soy so double eel. Ugh! And the size of that skimpy dragon roll to charge $12.99 was outrageous. Sushi Cafe, you used to be great but with so many nearby great sushi places and so many delivery options near and far, you need to step up your game again. Maybe your Korean BBQ has been outgrowing your sushi side and it definitely needs your attention or change your name from sushi cafe to Shilla.

Great food. I specially enjoy the Korean bbq. Ambiance is reason for 3 stars. Service during off hours is the ultimate. As in other restaurants busy can be synonymous for slow. Ample parking always. I've been going for many many years and I've never had to wait or walk away. Give it a try friends.

It's my first time at Sushi Cafe & Shilla Korean BBQ, I was so excited to have some Korean BBQ after a particularly hard work week! The restaurant is separated into two sections, a BBQ section and a regular section. We went straight to the BBQ section and ordered some pork belly (yummy, highly recommend!), however...the experience was marred by the fact that their A/C was apparently not working or not on. :/ It got real hot, real quick. Especially when you're doing the BBQ, it's important to have the A/C on so as not to suffocate. It got so hot and sweaty after just a few minutes. It really just spoiled the whole outing for us. I hope they can fix this soon - or close the restaurant until they do. Food: 8.5/10. Experience: 0/10. Service: 9/10 (our server was great)

Let me start off with the way you are greeted. When you first walk into the restaurant it is unclear where to go, but when you finally get approached they ask you if you are doing Korean BBQ or not. DISCLAIMER: you need to order at least two plates from the Korean BBQ section to be able to cook it yourself. We ordered 3 plates of sushi and 2 of Korean BBQ. We were asked for our order by 3 different people. The workers were not well coordinated at all. However this is not the reason for the 2/5 start review. The food took about 40 mins to get to our table and the place was not even packed. The portions on the Korean BBQ are way to overpriced for the amount. The food was not bad at all but by the time I got my food I was so upset that I just wanted to leave. Reason why this review is 2/5 stars and not 1. I will not be visiting this establishment again. Really bad experience and I really regret going there.

While I've never been inside the actual restaurant, this spot is our go-to for delivery! Why? The menu is extensive, the food comes pretty fast, and it's delish! The menu is both Japanese and Korean. I crave sushi on the reg, so that's usually what I get. The single size chirashi is my jam. At $18.95, it's not the cheapest thing on the menu but the portion of both rice and fish is ample to the point where I can rarely finish the entire thing. If I'm not feeling as gluttonous, I'll go for more standard rolls, of which they have so many. If you want something that's cooked, they have a ton of Korean entrees, stir fried dishes like pad thai and fried rice, hibachi, and soups. They also have a handful of desserts like banana cheesecake and Thai donuts. One day I hope to make it to the actual restaurant but until then, I foresee many delivery dates on my couch in the future.

This place is very good. We tried The fried rice, beef, and pancake. It's were good. Service is a little slow.

FIRST AND LAST 1. Way to overprice , only 2 of us and out bill was over $100 , my husband Order BBQ For just only few pieces of meat for $75 :( 2. Lack of customer service, our waitress not that friendly and helpful , she doesn't help us go thru the menu or answer our questions, she just want to finish the order fast so she can go to the next table , 3 . The meat look old , you can tell by the color if is fresh or not . Took 45 mins for them to bring out the raw meat for us to BBQ , I guess they have to unfrozen the meat first .. overall the quality of food it's not goo 4 . Everything on the table look so old and discussing

Go to place for sushi and Korean food. While sometimes it seems like the server changes, it does mean that you are being attended to by multiple staff. If ordering online, do it from Chownow or directly from their website. I ordered off of Eatstreet and they didn't receive my order resulting in a 20 minute wait in the restaurant.

Outstanding Korean, Sushi restaurant which has been in the same location for years. 20 of us decided to dine here to celebrate the Lunar New Year of the Rabbit. What a great choice. We had a combination of Sushi Roll appetizers and Korean entrees. Rolls were generous size, Galbi beef flavorful, delicious, Spicy KImchee seafood soup perfect We also had also had the side dish appetizers on the table, kimchi, bean sprouts, spicy cucimber, salad, tofu. Dessert Thai donuts. Good selection of beers, sake, soju too

I didn't know there was a Korean restaurant near Costco. I was hesitant at first but the staff who are not Korean were very knowledgeable. I ordered the most Korean dish - kimchi stew to see if it was any good, and I was delighted that it was. They use the older kimchi to make the pungent stew, and I'll definitely will be going back to try others. Im Korean and have found it difficult to find good Korean food near Miami Beach so Im really glad to find this place.

Just left this location. The server young Asian man was great he was friendly and super respectful. The food was okay I would say average quality. His service was great but when we were ready to pay we had to wait another 20 minutes of a manager trying to figure out why their system wasn't processing my cards we tried several cards all with plenty of money to pay the tab Nothing worked The manager didn't apologize he seemed to not tell me anything. I have to rush now to a root canal appointment because they can't process credit cards. I literally had to walk to a gas station to use an atm to get money out so I can pay the tab. Like are you clueless? Let people know if your system isn't working or get managers who know how to fix issues like these. Totally ruined my experience I will not return. Server was great

This place is a good spot to get fresh sushi rolls. I ordered takeout and the food was ready in about 20 minutes. The only thing I wish was different is how they slice the rolls. I prefer mine thinly sliced since that makes it an easier bite but that's just a personal preference. Definitely if the roll was thinly sliced you could share with 2 people.

Amamos amamos este lugar, además de la comida deliciosa, muy buena atención, es un hambriento familiar increíble, lo que más amamos es el amor por Jesús que tienen. Si les gusta el picante, el spice pork es delicioso! Y mi sushi favorito el Kamikasi. Hace 3 años que vamos casi todos los viernes, nos sentamos en la misma mesa y pedimos la misma comida, el servicio es muy bueno y rápido !
