Sushi for you!

At first, if you hear “Let’s go get sushi on 8th Street,” you might be a little, more like very, hesitant and with good reason. However, Bonsai Thai + Sushi is one of my favorite places to eat and it’s really the ultimate sushi spot. From the concrete ceiling & floors, to the mix-matched cherry blossom paintings across the wall, this place contains a great atmosphere, unbelievably fresh sushi, and outstanding service.

Bonsai is obviously a favorite among those who have discovered it, always rustling with activity-not to worry though, the wait is usually never longer than 5-10 minutes. The sushi bar is armed with at least 3 chefs and can be seen from the entire restaurant. One of those places where you can bring your best friend, your significant other, and believe it or not, your family!

With its contemporary Japanese décor and soundtrack of soft techno, Bonsai feels like it belongs in a chic New York neighborhood, but lucky for us, it chose West Dade as its home.

Woohoo! This was such a great idea! An excellent excuse to start eating out... Bonsai is definitely one of my favorite spots (as you know).

A perfect meal for me:
Ginger Salad
Crab Croquettes
Crunch Roll**
And who could resist dessert with Bonsai's THAI DONUTS!


For those who don't do sushi,
Salmon Teriyaki is absolutely delicious...

I Love this place!
