Flawless Sushi. You always here of those restaurants that have that real snobby attitude and poor service, and this is definitely not one of them. The staff has always been great and the food is AMAZING. The cocktails are great too. A wonderful place to get some great sushi and enjoy your surroundings.

Phenomenal Restaurant. i am an absolute sushi conosseiur, and this place is amazing sushi. The wasabi is not horseradish wasabi, it's real wasabi from japan, so it's really not too spicy. I will definitely retur hundreds of times because this is one of the best sushi placs in the city. Also... do not listen to the other part becuase it's great for kids! and romantic!

Best sushi in the city!. Love it! I'm new to eating sushi, I went to Mirai and everything we ordered was a little party in our mouths, the sauces and grade of meat are perfection! Since the first time dining there, I have gone back 2 times in the past month....and am planning a party in their lounge area. I highly recommend this restaurant!

fanatastic sushi, very creative, nice decor. Didn't go to Mirai in a while, went last Saturday with 7 people. The food was amazing, I still love the choices they're having for a while now, like the Kani Nagiri and the monk fish foie gras, but was also surprised by new "inventions". Well worth the prices!

if you want good sushi, mirai is the place to go.
came here on a saturday night with 3 friends...we all had great expectations of the sushi since it was highly recommended by citysearch and locals.
we were definitely not disappointed!
the sushi was so fresh and buttery, and though the sushi chefs are very traditional, the menu was inventive.
our waiter was somewhat slow, but he was very knowledgeable of the menu and gave us great recommendations.
we ordered appetizers, entrees, drinks and two desserts (to share) and only paid about $35 each!
overall, i'd highly recommend this place - everything from the appetizers and entree's to the desserts and drinks were a transporting experience.

The Staff doesnt match the quality of food. We live in the neighborhood and always on the hunt for good sushi. We found Mirai and really love the quality of the fish, the cuts are perfect and the prepared dishes (Udon) are fantastic. The chefs are personable when you dine at the sushi bar-great food. However, I dont get the staff. I stood waiting at the hostess stand for 5 minutes and when the Host came over he completely ignored me and asked the couple behind me how could he assist. He made a completely wrong assumption, but moreover, didnt even inquire if I were OK-needsless to say not even an acknowledgement. Even the numerous wait staff who walked past never acknoledged me or made mention that someone would be right over. Please, management at Morai, keep your staff focused on quality of service and friendliness (smiling would help?). The food is great-but nothing warrants the attitude.

RUDE SUSHI.
I am a HUGE sushi lover and thoroughly enjoy going out for a nice meal.
My fiance and I have hear good things about Mirai Sushi but unfortunatly the service and food were NOT acceptable.
The hostes were all out to lunch and the waitress... was beyond RUDE and unhelpful.
I have never been to a restaurant where i could NOT wait to leave!
I can't believe there was so many good reviews for this place??!!
There are SO many other GOOD FRIENDLY true japanese sushi restaurants you should try before coming here!!

Not too shabby. I went to Mirai on a packed Saturaday night after waiting in line at RA for an hour. I'm glad RA was packed because this place is amazing. The food was incredible and everyone was so nice. This is my new spot for sushi, although I wish they had more traditional rolls, the chef specials are quite good.
