Mugendai

Amazing experience. The custom made interior is beautifully done and sets the tone right away. Chef Dew was incredible, he truly took us on a journey, explaining how to eat nigiri the authentic way and sharing his passion through every dish. The sushi was outstanding, especially the bacon-wrapped tomato and asparagus and the tsuneke. The fish was extremely fresh. Yara was also wonderful, very friendly and accommodating. I’ve been to many sushi restaurants and had sushi in Asia, and this is by far the best sushi experience I’ve had in Orlando. Highly recommend!!!!

The best Japanese restaurant in Oviedo. The food is absolutely amazing! All Ingredients are so fresh, perfectly seasoned and thoughtfully presented. Also, their skewers are so delicious! The restaurant design makes you feel like you are sitting at an omakase style restaurant. The vibe is calm and relax, makes you want to take your time and enjoy every bite. Definitely coming back and worth the drive. Everything is 10/10

This is the best sushi in Oviedo. Honestly one of the best Hamachi Kama I've had anywhere. Great freshness and knife technique on the sashimi/nigiri, flavors all balanced and on point, good atmosphere, and service. Some classy low key Japanese music or lofi would hit hard with this vibe. If I had to give criticism I'd prefer short grain rice in the donburi over medium grain, and the robata could use some char... But this is really nit picking and overall it's a great experience.

My experience at Mugendai reminds me of what it feels like to really be treated. I'm not foodie. I generally don't put much effort on seeking well-regarded dining places to visit. When I saw posts about Mugendai and photos from their customers, it felt almost like they came from tv show or food magazine. Out of curiosity, I and my wife decided to try. Let's just say extraordinary was an understatement. We chose Mystery Bento Box along with some Uni Nigiris. We were mesmerized watching the chef skillfully crafting each creation piece by piece into the box. I felt so special, so treated. Every little detail or touch added meanings to the items in front of us. I never knew there could be so much pleasure in dining. Everything was fresh, high-quality, and well-presented. The place is welcomi

Such a special experience. The Fish was so fresh it was melting in our mouth. Never had nigiri that had so much flavor. We got to try Chef Dew’s homemade soy sauce and freshly, finely chopped wasabi, which we enjoyed every bite. Everything we tried was excellent, from the sushi to the grilled skewers, all cooked and seasoned perfectly. Chef Dew is incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about his craft. He shared his training under a dedicated Japanese sushi master, introduced us to his knives, and guided us through different fish while explaining how to eat them properly. Truly one of the best dining experiences in Orlando.
