Top Best Japanese Restaurants in Apopka

"From humble beginnings helping his parents run two restaurants at the age of 15 to opening Kabooki Sushi at the age of 22 and quickly becoming one of Orlando’s most creative sushi chefs says a lot about the drive and passion of Henry Moso. His extravagant, free-for-all omakases are legendary and the ingredients he sources from local waters and those in the Pacific are unparalleled. After opening a second Kabooki Sushi in Dr. Phillips, Moso expanded and completely renovated the original restaurant on East Colonial Drive as the pandemic raged."

"Kabooki Sushi offers all the traditional sushi rolls and sashimi, but for a truly over-the-top culinary adventure, consider the chef-selected multi-course omakase experience. Just make sure to not get too full: The house-made desserts, like the goat cheese panna cotta and beet cake, served with Thai basil, beet powder, black pepper almonds, olive oil, and beet vinegar, are divine."

"There's a word we want to use about Domu's phenomenal curry ramen (the other varieties are palate stunners, as well) but we're not sure how to spell that noise Homer Simpson makes when he is particularly food-enthralled. Ramen, the bowls are definitely shareable, and an array of beautifully plated pan-Asian offerings are what all the fuss is about at Domu, and the fare is definitely fuss-worthy. You can level up your bowl with adds on including fried chicken thighs and braised pork belly, or skip the soup and go for some crispy wings or the "cheezus," a gloopy-wonderful cheesy bowl comprised, in part, of melted mozzarella, mayo, fresh roasted corn and Japanese spices."

"As its name depicts, it is a Japanese cuisine restaurant that not only offers some of the famous Japanese origin recipes but also local ones. Situated near the East End market, Domu is a chic and modern space with whitewashed brick walls. You must be thinking about what you should order when you visit this place?"

"The trio of Jennifer Bañagale, Mark Berdin, and Lordfer Lalicon are a studied lot with impressive credentials and their minimalist Japanese restaurant offers one of the finest dining experiences in the city. Semi-regular trips to Japan spawn inspiration in their traditional – and impeccably presented – omakases, while the sake program is, unquestionably, second to none."

"This tiny reservations-only establishment offers the best sushi in Orlando, if not the whole of Florida. This place does its own thing, and does it with unique style. Nine stools are all situated around a sushi prep bar where the owners Lordfer Lalicon, Mark Berdin and Jennifer Benagale prepare carefully choreographed 18-plus course sushi and sashimi meals."

"A year after closing its hideaway Casselberry locale, WA Sushi re-emerged this past February in a far more conspicuous Casselberry spot distinguished by a swish interior and some of the finest Japanese fare in Seminole County. The focus, of course, is still on quality cuts of seafood – uni, scallops and giant octopus legs from Hokkaido; A5 wagyu; otoro flecked with gold – the whole bit. But don’t overlook the stellar noodles, be they ramen, udon, or soba."

"Wa exposed the sleepy bedroom community of Casselberry to a refined sushi-going experience and the rest of Orlando quickly took notice. Wa closed in February of 2020, but reopened in a new locale in Casselberry serving the same high-end ingredients from bluefin toro tartare and deep-fried Hiroshima oysters to A5 wagyu and hotaru ika, the seasonal firefly squid. At $42, the 16-piece grand sashimi moriawase is an absolute steal."

"If there’s one consistent aspect of Shakai Sushi that guests rave about -- it’s the happy hour, just read the Yelp review. Rolls and appetizers start at $3 dollars and go up to $5, beer starts at $2 and wine starts at $3, so really what’s not to like?. On their regular menu, they have a large selection of sushi appetizers, sushi, sashimi, regular and specialty rolls, no seaweed and vegetarian rolls, and sushi entrees."

"Located in historic Parramore, Flamingo’s is a popular café that serves daily lunch specials, specialty coffees, and decadent desserts. The café serves appetizers, fresh salads, gourmet sandwiches, and delicious wood-fired pizzas, freshly baked pastries, and mouthwatering desserts, and offers a variety of specialty coffee drinks, organic teas, and fresh fruit juices to enjoy in-house or to go. Ideally located for a quick bite before a big game, Flamingo’s Coffee Shop offers complimentary wireless Internet is open for breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner daily."

"Hontoon Island State Park is located in the St. Johns River and welcomes visitors to enjoy nature and history in quiet solitude. The island is accessible only by private boat or park ferry. Boating, canoeing, and fishing are popular activities and canoe rentals are available."

"The springs features swimming, snorkeling, and tubing on a small slow moving current. There is a playground for the kids and a nice boardwalk where you can look for manatees."

"In a world where kids make the rules, we know what the number one request would be: unlimited games ..."
