Shin Japanese Cuisine

Shin opened in 2007 (its oldest reviews on Yelp are from 2008) and it seems that quality remained consistent throughout almost 2 decades. The prices are fair and the menu is fairly extensive. Service was exceptionally quick and friendly. I tried the edamame and sashimi appetizers and was not disappointed. The sashimi was super fresh and I loved the variety. My friend ordered the rainbow and the Beauty & the Beast rolls and I had the chance to try both -- each was delicious.One of Shin's advantages is its location in a quieter part of downtown, north of Colonial. There is ample free parallel parking available, and several parking garages conveniently located just around the corner on Park Lake.I'm definitely coming back for lunch (great prices on its lunch menu). :)

This hands down been my favorite place for sushi since 2016!Amazing quality and options.

Food is always so delicious!!! One of my favorite Japanese restaurants! The Shin Hotate is my favorite roll!

One of my favorite spots for lunch. I also go there for dinner from time to time, but not as often as it is further away from my house. A very consistent good quality Sushi.

I wish half stars were a thing, because I felt this restaurant deserved a 3.5, but I'm choosing to round up since I feel 3 would be too low of a rating. I had never heard of this spot before and was intrigued since I know most of the best sushi spots in Orlando, and after seeing their high ratings, needless to say I was looking forward to my visit. When my brother and I arrived at lunch time, we asked the hostess if we could sit at an outdoor table to which she responded yes. After about 15 minutes of waiting with no one coming to greet us or to even hand us menus, we wondered if they had forgotten we were out there. However, the strong wind & chilly weather caused us to change our minds and we headed back indoors.Once seated, we were greeted and handed menus. Shortly after, we placed our orders for the lunch specials (I got 2 rolls, he got 3) and I felt the pricing was extremely fair ($16 for 2, $20 for 3) especially since it included soup & salad (both tasted great and I especially loved their ginger dressing). I opted for the spicy tuna and spicy salmon. Neither really blew me away, but when I tried the sweet potato tempura roll my brother had ordered, I knew I had messed up - Super yummy and full of flavor. I would go back again just for that. The environment wasn't anything too upscale, but it was clean, nicely decorated & modern. I'm not sure if I would hit up this spot for dinner, but I would absolutely return to take advantage of their affordable lunch special and to sample a few other rolls on the menu that caught my eye!

Orlando--Amazingly delicious sushi!! we went on a weekday and it was still busy busy with lunchtime visitors. That told us that the food was probably spectacular. All of our entrees were fresh and delicious. The cucumber and scallop salad was to die for! Definitely will be returning to this amazing sushi spot!

This restaurant used to be a nice place to visit. Around lunch time, a bowl of rice was obviously cooked on the previous day and stayed overnight in their rice cooker. Assorted sashimi was half raw and another half processed in boiling water. No excitement for eating fresh raw fish didn't come from them at all. The prices were probably not very much different from before but the food quality was all gone. No desire to revisit them.

I love the sushi here! The sushi always tastes fresh and is made to order. I live close by but even if I didn't I would still make the trip because that's how good it is. Every roll I've tried here has been delicious but the kamikaze is my favorite for sure. Be sure to check it out if you're looking for sushi downtown!

Shin has a nice relaxed feel, we sat on the patio which was shaded though windy this particular night. Service was good, was given recommendations based on what I liked. The food was good however did take a little longer than expected, it helped we order the gyoza before (not pictured). This could be because we came an hour before closing and looked to have a lot of to go orders as well. The Snow White was good, I expected to enjoy the creamy salmon more . It was also good just the mouthful of salmon was almost too much at times, but a very good portion of meat.

I am visiting from Dallas and came across this place while walking to another restaurant and decided to give it a try. I am glad I did, as this was top notch sushi. sushi. i ended up having dinner here two nights in a row, and it is for sure a go to when in town! Peter, working the sushi bar was very friendly both nights! I would highly suggest this place, and I will be back!
