    A lovely experience and a spot to try for fusion Japanese. The team is customer engaged and food is amazing. Please give them a try, if you love Japanese or just want to try something different and are new to fusion.

    The food was amazing and the atmosphere was so relaxing with the mood lighting. The service was a bit slow at the beginning but when the food started to be served it picked up and we got out of their just in time for our show across the street. Everyone was really friendly and made us feel welcomed. I would definitely recommend this place!

    Had a great experience here for my partner’s birthday. We had the sablefish, duck, beef pot roast and the calamari. For drinks we had the sparkling water and passionfruit cocktails. We tried to have some of the foods marked with a Michelin star which was a first for us. It was a little pricey but was a great experience with overall.

    Minami offers a truly delightful dining experience. The environment is warm and inviting, with a cozy and refined ambiance. While it was a bit noisy, it didn’t take away from the overall charm. The service was attentive, the menu beautifully curated, and the dishes absolutely delicious. The pacing of the courses was well-timed, allowing us to savor each one. It was a wonderful evening in great company. Highly recommended!

    Had another fantastic meal at Minami. I love the vibe of this restaurant and the staff is all very welcoming and professional. We had some our favourite dishes once again. Pork Gyoza and soft shell crab to start, both were tasty. Next we had some spicy salmon rolls and Negihama Maki, both of these were so fresh and delicious. We finished off with a few orders of the A5 Waygu Striploin with a lobster tail. Again everything we had was prepared perfectly. I also had a few of the Mizaki Margaritas and I really enjoyed them a lot. The bill said our server was Nicole but two different lovely women looked after us and they were both incredibly helpful and professional. I will keep coming back for the wonderful atmosphere, delicious food and amazing staff. Michael GIGL

    Been a regular customer here but was disappointed with my service this time. Food took over an hour to come and then it was not what I ordered. Service left a bad taste in my mouth.

    I loved the food. This was my first time trying sushi. It’s something I have never been interested in trying., but I was there about two summers ago and the menu was great so when I came back to the theatre to see The Lion King, I decided to try the restaurant again and try sushi this time. It was awesome very flavourful very authentic..

    Usually love the food here, but the edamame was served without soy sauce and once of servers asked if we’ve tried the food before when requesting soy sauce…the calamari was cold and very greasy/oily. No longer on the top of my list.
