Kojin 2.0

Kojin is back, rejoice! Could not wait to try the latest rendition by our favorites, Chefs Pedro & Katherine. Unsurprisingly, the food, ambience, and service are just as wonderful as the 1st Kojin.My diet options are currently limited, so fully dug into the a la carte menu. Started with the scallops and milk bread for appetizers - melt in your mouth for both. Then split the market fish (red grouper that night) and american iberico entrees. Cooked to perfection and brilliant flavor combinations with each dish, as we've come to expect from this crew. Recommend all of the above!The chocolate tart was one of the best desserts I've had in my life, not too sweet dark chocolate, balanced perfectly with the miso caramel - seriously do not miss out on that.The staff was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was cool and vibey. Enjoyed my non-alcoholic "shrub" cocktail, and appreciated having an equally good option to sip on.Failed at taking photos as we were too excited to dig into each dish, but can't wait to come back and try the rest of the menu including chef's tasting menu 2.0. We saw lots of people ordering it at other tables, and it looked and sounded delicious.

wow, wow, wow Thats all i can say about this new gem in coral gables. Food is exciting and pushed the boundaries of fusion in new and wonderful way. Love love the wine program - we had a few wines that truly paird well with our entrees. and can we talk about the Deserts??? OMG. MUST TRY ALL OF THEM. Love this place and cannot wait to come back.

Best fusion food I've ever had, and it's in the heart of Coral Gables. Hip hop music (90s) to go with the great salad, and oyster chicken. Atmosphere is the type you'd just vibe out to.

Sure, there's no shortage of great food in Miami. But Kojin is more than great food: it's memorable hospitality, inventive dishes (hello, foie donuts?), AND great food. I love that they offer three different tasting menus because sometimes they can be intimidating to me, and they also have an a la carte menu. I can confidently say after having had 90% of the a la carte menu, you can't go wrong with anything. However, you can't miss the maitake with rice porridge, the scallops, and the brown butter brioche. If you're a salad fan like me, get the Caesar salad. It's not like other Caesar salads. It's a cool Caesar salad.

This is a shame that a vegetarian has to rate this restaurant because they will cater to vegetarians but it's not their forte. I had the yakisoba and enjoyed both the portion size and taste. It had a malty flavour to it that sets it apart from other yakisobas. For dessert I had the chocolate torte which was very, very good with a merengue topping. I would like to see a more expanded menu here. They do change their menu but it really is quite limited. Beautiful restaurant, minimalist but colourful. Street parking seems to be the only option in this area. Service was great, yes, great. It's Japanese/Asian fusion that is both interesting and a treat. They have an extensive wine option for those of you that drink. Would like to see iced tea and not just green tea here. The staff works together to ensure your happiness. Hoping to try dinner in the near future.

Amazing Place, deserves to be Miami Best restaurant. The food is out of this world, and it always keeps you coming back, they always have a market fish, some spear caught either tuna, halibut, but it might not be there next week. Definitely worth a michellin stat

Because of the location & reveiws, i had high expectations. Sadly, I was disappointed. Caviar not fresh!

Fantastic Fan #%%]^^ tastic. Miami needs more restaurants like this, warm and inviting dining room, without the annoying miami over the top flare. In addition the food is insane. The Caesar salad was unreal, the foie gras donut and key lime pie ice cream sandwich is life changing. Been twice in two weeks.

Undoubtedly the best dining experience I've had in my life. The service - 10/10, better than michillen star/recommended places I've visited. I have forgotten how important this is because you don't get treatment like this anymore. Ambience/personality - not giving a out of ten because this is preference but its my favorite sort of place to eat (would be a 10 from me). High end/creative food with personal, light hearted service.Food - incredible, and given the fact that they've only been open 2 months is shocking. We got the tasting menu and everything was amazing, and 2 plates were worse but still great. The dessert and bread were also UNREAL.The best plates were the langostines, the egg custard thing and the raviolo, easily 10s. Most of the others were 8-9s, no standouts but delicious, presented beautifully and creative.The 2 worse dishes were the sashimi, which was just okay 5-6. The steak, had a beautiful sauce and perfectly cooked veg, but the steak itself, while being from a great butcher and very high quality wasn't my favorite, but I'm a pain in the ass when it comes to steak (I prefer grain and eat enough to know the difference, this would have put it over the top for me), and the plate was still a 7-8 if taken in its totality.If our experience was the norm, these guys are going to get very busy very quickly, so I'd recommend coming because I can't eat there enough to keep these guys in business on my own.Adding photos of just my standouts to not spoil the experience

They have best intentions, but this place won't make it. Burnt the $11 small bread. Overcooked the pork and were out of the scallops. That is fine, except they have about 4 starters and 4 entrees. Really pushing the tasting menu, which there were plenty of scallops for. Location is not great. Lots of places to eat for 300 bucks. Don't need constant chatter from everyone that works there. Caesar was not great
