Top Best Japanese Restaurants in Lake Proctor

"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 E."

"A sleek and intimate interior belies a nondescript exterior on busy Colonial Drive near the Fashion Square Mall. It's an Orlando favorite for sushi and Asian fusion, with artful and generous presentation and a soothing, cosmopolitan vibe. Let the chef's mood and best ingredients seduce your palate with a six-course omakase creation or choose your own path."

"Set inside a banal strip mall that could “almost” be a massage parlor from the outside, belies its pretty, modern interior. The sushi here is spectacular. Though not traditional, sushi is approached with a foodie sensibility with seasonal ingredients, delicate flavors and extremely fresh seafood."

"One of the most talked about restaurants in Orlando in recent years, Domu crafts house-made noodles to serve in almost a dozen different dishes, along with shareable plates like Asian buns. The delightful happy hour features a wasabi and ginger margarita that's worth driving through downtown Orlando during rush hour to imbibe. Domu does not accept reservations and finding a seat inside the tiny restaurant can be challenging, so be sure to arrive early and be willing to wait, especially on weekends."

"And then there's Domu, a local favorite with four stars out of 970 reviews. Stop by 3201 Corrine Drive, Suite 100 to hit up the cocktail bar and Asian fusion spot, which offers ramen and more, next time you're in the mood.

"Domu, in East End Market, is a chic, modern space with whitewashed brick walls, cheerful murals, and edgy fixtures. House-made noodles and slow-cooked broths are just part of what makes the ramen here so good. Beyond that, a pan-Asian menu includes rice bowls, lobster buns with bonito flakes, and grilled octopus with yuzu."

"A pandemic and scorching summertime temperatures may be effective deterrents in considering takeout sushi for dinner, but when one of the best restaurants in the city offers a contactless pickup experience, well, that changes things. The chirashi bowls served up at Kadence hold their own, even after a 30-minute drive back home. The vinegared rice bowl teems with hamachi, kanpachi, madai, shima aji, bluefin tuna, ora king salmon, kisu, and hirame."

"Don't let the $155+/per person dinner price tag scare you off. You see, Kadence is a nine-seat omakase experience unlike any other you'll find here in Orlando. Sushi purists will delight in the artistic, authentic multi-course (for dinner, that's 18+ courses!) magnificence on display."

"Was very packed but we didn't mind sitting at the bar and got good quick service!. My only suggestion is a draft beer selection!"

"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."

"A post shared by Shari Sushi (@sharisushi) on Dec 17, 2018 at 1:18pm PST. Shari Sushi is a sleek, intimate restaurant that offers an equally classy menu. Try the Sea Dragon, rolled with crab, avocado, sriracha hot sauce and topped with tuna, or the pork belly bun."

"Asian House is a family-owned business, and we love what we do!. We use only the freshest (never frozen) vegetables, top-grade sushi fish, and hand-selected..."

"Not far from the bustle of UCF, Fujiyama does brisk business. An impressive selection of traditional and specialty rolls whizz past full tables, prompting diners to question whether they should have ordered differently. No worries, though, with reasonable lunch and happy hour specials – they can just come back and try something new next time."

"With over 150 salon and spa services, Sanctuary Salon and Med Spa ranks among the top Orlando spas for its passion for health and beauty. Whether interested in a massage, new hair style, customized facial or body wrap, this spa delivers. Massage therapy includes Swedish, digital de-stress, deep tissue and tension recovery treatment."

"Valhalla Bakery, located in Market on South in Downtown Orlando, has a case jam-packed full of freshly baked treats available daily. And did we mention that all of their items are egg free, dairy free and vegan?. But don’t mark this hotspot off of your list if you don’t subscribe to a plant-exclusive diet, because their goodies are so exceptional that you’d never know what isn’t there."

"Valhalla Bakery is known for their tasty, square and VEGAN doughnuts!. Munch on a pistachio doughnut as you drink your coffee before work!. Doughnuts sell out quick so get there early!"

"This little donut shop roared onto the Central Florida food scene just before Christmas, and it hasn’t looked back. Originally founded in Miami just five years ago, The Salty has become an Orlando favorite in short order with their signature 24-hour brioche donuts, complemented by Intelligentsia coffee. Co-founder and owner Andy Rodriguez, who began The Salty with wife Amanda, says that Orlando was a natural fit when they decided to expand north."

"We couldn’t do a Best Donuts in Orlando post without mentioning the Salty Donut!. Recently opened up in the Audubon Park District if Orlando, the Salty Donut offers amazing creations like the brioche blueberry pancake, tres leches, coconut macaroon, and their famous toasted coquito. The Salty Donut also offers amazing coffees like iced lattes, and cold brew, that pair perfectly with your hot and fresh donut!"

"The maple bacon is surprisingly smoky (in a good way) and the Cinnamon Toast Crunch latte is so spot-on it's unreal. The donuts and coffee are a lit..."
