Das wohl beste Sushi in Soutwest Florida!
Wow, da fehlen einem fast die Worte.
Nicht ganz einfach zu finden, etwas versteckt in einer Ladenstraße, das Namensschild durch die vielen Palmen kaum zu sehen.
Draußen ein paar Plätze, aber da würde ich eher nur warten und nicht essen wollen.
Betritt man das Lokal, befindet sich rechts die Bar und links vorne stehen hinter einem langen Tresen/Theke die Sushimeister. Mal zwei, mal drei.
Links ein paar Tische/Nischen und geradeaus noch ein weiterer, größerer Raum.
Wir haben uns für die Barhocker direkt vor den Sushimeistern entschieden, denn wir sehen sehr gerne beim Rollen der Köstlichkeiten zu und einem kleinen Ratsch und persönlichen Erklärungen und Tipps sind wir auch nicht abgeneigt.
Auf das Lokal gekommen bin ich durch eine Freundin, die hier Sashimi Taco's empfohlen hat. Die musste ich dann auch gleich als erstes bestellen. Wirklich nicht schlecht und durch den knusprigen Taco auch sehr interessant von der Konsistenz her. Allerdings auch eine kleine Sauerei den zu essen, denn wenn die Schale zerbricht, landet das Innere (also Sashimi mit Sauce) teilweise auf der Hand. War klasse, das mal zu probieren, aber ich bin wohl doch eher der Typ für die klassischen Rollen bzw. Spezial-Rollen.
Und genau die sind hier der absolute Wahnsinn!
Die klassischen Rollen kennt man natürlich aus anderen Lokalen, aber die Spezialrollen (egal ob mit rohem Fisch oder gekocht/frittiert oder eine Mischung daraus) sind teilweise schon sehr besonders und genau das hat mich total geflasht!
Und zwar so sehr, dass wir gleich 3 Tage nacheinander dort eingekehrt sind.
Wären es nicht die letzten 3 Urlaubstage gewesen, vermutlich wären wir noch öfter hingegangen.
Wir wurden sehr gut beraten und haben nett geplaudert. Auch die Chefin ist super nett und sympathisch und hat uns bei den Folgebesuchen gleich wiedererkannt. Lediglich der Service (Getränke refill) hätte ein klein wenig aufmerksamer sein können. Nett und höflich aber allemal.
Es gibt neben Sushi und Sashimi auch diverse warme Gerichte, wie man sie sonst vom Koreaner oder Asiaten kennt. Außer der Miso-Suppe (die Beste, die ich je gegessen habe) habe ich aber nichts probiert. Vielleicht irgendwann, wenn ich mal die ganze Sushikarte durch habe ;-)
Insgesamt kann es hier nur die Bestnote geben, nennen wir es mal 5 Sterne Superior.
Ich freue mich schon auf August, dann wird weiter getestet!

The best Korean and Japanese restaurant in town... Great service and friendly staff. I'm originally from Miami. There are so many Korean and Japanese grill in Dade County and Broward County but this place is like no other Asian restaurant. My wife and I met the owner of this place and she was so nice. We went here for my birthday. Korean BBQ and Japanese sushi were to die for... I had their roast duck... it was the tender, juiciest and savory duck I ever had. There are so many selection to choose from... Like Korean pancakes, Hosomaki (rolls) and noodles. I loved this place... five star
This is such a beautiful place... from the beautiful fountain outside and the bright and friendly sign, to the tastefully decorated interior, with perfect lighting. Every bite of food we ate here was delicious, with a great presentation and variety. We had the Sampler for 2, various sushi rolls, Pepper Steak special, Seafood with Panfried Noodle, among others. Best miso soup ever! They offer desserts galore, a great, unique variety. The service was good, and the owner was very hospitable and stopped by to make sure everything was ok, with a personal chat, and even served some items herself. She's owned this restaurant for 24 years, and it's apparent why it's so successful. Highly recommend!
Very fresh vegetables and great variety in menu. I found the waiter extremely knowledgeable in helping me make dinner choices. Very nice experience there.
Origami is a restaurant. I ate raw fish. I enjoy raw fish. Sometimes I also like fish that is cooked. Yum yum swim swim fish fish yes.
This place for sushi never disappoints!! The volcano roll and the #9 roll are amazing!! A little pricey but worth it!!

Amazing sushi with the best staff!
Origami is the best freshest sushi around. Served with great pride and presentation! No doubt the best
Got right in. The menu is quite long but I decided on the beef and rice noodles...excellent choice. Service was perfect and prices reasonable. Will return in the future.
The best sushi in Lee County !! Can't find better! Try dunk city!!
Origami has the best sushi in the area, I have been going here for years. The food is always amazing, I try to go at least once a month.
Very cozy place and very friendly staff esp. the one who served us----Jackie. And the food was so delicious!
If Alena likes it . It must be good.

Beautiful interior, staff was very knowledgeable about the menu and very helpful (offered a sesame-based dipping sauce when a member didn't care for the (delicious) curry sauce on the calamari app), and very welcoming.
Food was delivered quickly, hot and fresh and in large servings, we actually had enough to take home for a whole second meal!

First time. Easy to note that, they make you are so wellcome and comfortable on any way, suggestions, answers and explanations. You are always leading. Food, delicate, colorful. Presentation. Mach 100 % the photos on the menu 😋 👌 😍. I ordered a 🍲 soup. The taste OMG I never been there but was heaven.
I almost forgot the entrée or appetizer. Sample was my choice, but there are plenty to choose. $$ if you know wtm.Follow me for more. You thanked me. #argeniusbiz all plataforms.
I ordered via Uber Eats. I used to order from here awhile ago and then stopped, but couldn't remember why. I can't speak on the ambiance or service since I've never dined in. I ordered the lava drops since they were BOGO on Uber Eats. Those were delicious. I also ordered the Louisiana roll, spicy tuna, Kim bap roll, angry shrimp, and baby octopus salad. The baby octopus salad was a hit too. The Kim bap roll was messy and fell apart everywhere when trying to eat it. There was an off flavor too that I did not care for. The other rolls were good, not great. I would give a 3.5-4 stars on the food.
Our experience at Origami was great. We came to dinner right after driving from the east coast of Fl and we were starving. Coming in at 8 pm when they close at 9 and how wonderful everybody was. Our server Eva was very attentive, her english was great, very knowledgeable overall. Gave us good recommendations and always there to help. Made our experience great. The food was also delicious, i had a roll w shrimp tempura avocado and cream cheese and my boyfriend had a Japanese plate w veggies rice and beef. Everything was tasy, flavorful. All the workers were smiling, everybody said goodbye to us. Such a good customer service I was sooo surprised. No wonder they have such great reviews. If you want a place w great food and awesome service, this is the place for you. We will definitely be back.
Food was amazing! Ashley was the best waitress! She was glowing all night and provided exceptional service! Everyone is very kind and it was a welcoming atmosphere! The restroom was spotless! I had the She’s on fire drink and it was amazing!
My father-in-law took us here while we were in town. This place has some of the best sushi we have ever had. It was amazingly fresh and just perfection. My father-in-law did all the ordering since this is his area of expertise. He did not guide us wrong! My favorite thing we tried was the Toro which is the underbelly of a Bluefin Tuna. It may have been the best piece of fish I have ever eaten. It was buttery and smooth to the taste and you didn’t even need to chew. It was the filet mignon of fish as far as I am concerned. We will define be back. I completely forgot to take pictures of the restaurant which was also beautiful. The ambiance was amazing and the service was great. We enjoyed cold saki and Sapporo beer to drink. I just got lost in the food and forgot that I wanted to take pictures of other things. If you love sushi you MUST try this place!
We will be back next time we are in town!
The food is wonderful! We started out with goyza, crab rangoon, and kamikaze shrimp; they were all tasty. They have over fifty different sushi rolls so of course it was hard to choose, but we ended up ordering the Chimichanga, Crazy Kani, Dunk City, Crazy Dragon, and the Key West rolls. All of the sushi was fresh and delicious, I also recommend the shrimp fried rice. All of the staff was great but the service provided by Skyler was great and wonderful. We will definitely be returning and would recommend to a friend.
Wonderful people and food! Any local will tell you it’s the best sushi in town. I’ve been coming here for 15+ years and it’s consistently high quality every time.
Good food and service! We loved the Korean BBQ but the table could have been a bit wider.
2nd time visiting. Not busy hours are the best! Food is good, service is prompt and attentive.
