Soseki Omakase - Winter Park, Florida

Marcelo Christianini

Wonderful omakase that elevates Orlando dining to another level. We had an amazing time, the food is so creative, meticulously thought and prepared, Mike and staff are so full of energy and humor. A truly remarkable experience. Recommend the tea service, it was mind-blowing good.

A truly delightful experience! Every aspect of the evening was thoughtfully prepared and intentionally designed. The food is beautiful but my favorite part was the playlist and lighting which is curated by a team member to elevate the entire dining experience.

If you are looking for a traditional Japanese omakase sushi experience this is not the place to go. If you’re a foodie that loves seasonal dishes and a symphony of textures and flavors that surprise with every course then you’re in for a treat! I’m very glad to see that Orlando restaurants are sharing dining options that were previously only accessible in LA or New York.

Added note: We had the full two hour course + sake tasting experience.

As a self-proclaimed disliker of fish I was reasonably a little skeptical about dining at an omakase restaurant, but because of my previous Michelin star dining experiences I had learned to go in with an open mind and I'm sure glad that I did because the food was amazing. When it comes to sushi, quality and preparation are key and Soseki excels at both. I walked away that night with a new appreciation for fish and I have spent every week since my visit longing to go back. It was well worth the wait, the money and the trip. Highlights for me included the sea trout, saltwater eel, and of course the aged fatty tuna.

We tried the Soseki Steppingstone omakase experience. Every bite was delicious craftsmanship by Chefs Kevin, Vanessa, Patrick, and Yedo. The fish is sourced daily straight from Japan (even the uni!). We added the sake flight, which paired wonderfully with the menu. We left satisfied but not stuffed (if you're craving more afterwards, hop over to Bar Kada for delicious drinks and elevated comfort food!).

The staff is wonderful. Their personalized service truly made us feel like we were dining with friends. Thank you to Renee, Jordan, and Abraham for your attentiveness and patience (we love Tako-san and friends). Thank you to everyone in front & back of house for making this experience possible!

We can't wait to come back next time we're in Orlando!!

By Florida standard, well deserved one-star. And let’s leave it at that. I’ve been here twice and both times I was impressed.

This time around, the surprise was the caneles. When we told them this was the best caneles we’ve ever had, they told us it took them two weeks and over like 15 tries to get it right. Hard to get a caramelized crust crisp on the outside and moist & “chewy” on the inside.

This was a truly memorable and inspiring experience that we will never forget. Everything was expertly prepared and absolutely delicious. The service was top tier on all fronts. I recommend adding the wine/sake pairing package. We can see how everyone’s knowledge and dedication resulted in intricate, mind blowing flavor combinations! It was an honor dining with you and we can’t wait to come back!

Everything delicious and top notch.
We came for my husbands birthday.

Although the sushi tasting at soseki was a culinary delight, I was disappointed by the minimal acknowledgment of the birthday. While they kindly said "happy birthday," the absence of any special birthday treat or gesture felt underwhelming, particularly considering the significant investment for this experience. It would have added a memorable touch to an otherwise exceptional dining experience.

Our Chefs were Patrick, Kevin, and Karl. They did an outstanding job preparing the dishes for the evening. The attention to detail, the history provided regarding the dishes, and the overall flavor of the food, made for an amazing culinary experience that I am of the opinion of, is the best Orlando has to offer.

Our hosts were Shay, Josh, and Jordan. Shay was meticulous in her attention to detail pre-experience. Josh and Jordan were extremely attentive, had great personalities, and helped enhance the experience we had. Jordan even went above and beyond by handwriting a birthday card for the birthday girl we were there to celebrate, and providing a momento style gift. While everyone at the restaurant that evening was simply the best, Jordan will be someone we never forget. We highly recommend this experience for all who are open to experiencing it!
