I would love to give this place 5 stars but the service was horrible. We had to wait an hour to get the food and then finally when the food came we had no utensils for the sushi lol and another 30 minutes to get our drinks. Coffee without milk, absolute disaster; but once we got the food it was abso...
The food is excellent and at a decent price. The service is very good and friendly.
Sawa is the perfect mix of middle eastern and Japanese fare, hence it's name that means together in Arabic. The food is always perfect, drinks are always on point. Xoxo Martini is my favorite. The atmosphere is great, servers and staff are always going above and beyond to please guests. On the wee...
Great mix of foods. And the service was outstanding.
Love the food and the ambulance. The service was good too
Good place to come eat listen to music enjoy the food atmosphere would reccomend
Service and the food (sushi) were good. Ambiance was very relaxed outside and the belly dancing show at night was a nice plus.

Fresh food. Good prices
Fabulous! My husband and I went for dinner on a Monday night to celebrate our wedding anniversary and we were extremely impressed. The ambiance, food and service were absolutely outstanding. Kudos to our server, Luana, who was attentive, professional and all-around awesome. The food was exceptio...
This place constantly delivers. They serve awesome dishes for affordable prices, there is no waiting time even when they are packed.
Great place for a Happy hour, the price is really competitive and the food is definitely good! Good service, definitely a place to go a few afternoons and taste different things every time.
First and last time I'm ever going to this restaurant. The server we had was nice, but tables that arrived after we did had their food before we did and the food runner was absolutely awful. We ordered steamed dumplings and he brought out fried dumplings to our table, but we didn't want to make a bi...
Food, good
Service, bad
Order NORMAL fries get some overused onion and cheese fries. 30 minutes latter, pays for bill. Waiter goes, "ummm, do you still want your fries?" I said "no", at least the lady then took off the 9.99$ Fries! Also outside seating is limited, and even though their is shar...
My college professor recommended this place saying that it is the best restaurant for Mediterranean food. Nope.
The atmosphere is nice but if you want to spend 25+ dollars for a bland and mediocre moussaka then go ahead. I've had better hummus, lamb and kebabs from Publix.
It was a nice little ex...
Happily surprised how good the food was! Will definitely come back!
The food is always well prepared and delightful, cashiers gives excellent customer service. I like how clean it is and character. Highly recommended.
Finest spot to grab food when in a hurry. The service is efficient, rates are fair, awesome vibes. Keep up the good work
Asked for draft got a bottle... And charged $7.50 for a Stella. Long wait for the hummus. Asked for more carrots got charged $2. Good but not that special.
Good greek salads and awesome unlimited mimosas/prosecco for mothers day!!
Mediocre food quality. Food was cold and overcooked.
Great food, great mix of Asian and Mediterranean food
Excellent service - they were able to handle a party of 20 flawlessly, and were able to keep the food and drinks coming. Very interesting house drinks and sushi - definitely recommend the Merrick Park roll. There's also a ton of Mediterranean dishes too. Comfortable and large outdoor dining area wit...
Enjoyed our lunch here and loved every dish we had. Didn't order cocktails or drinks, stayed with signature rolls and salads. Servers were attentive and explained to us all the info. Worth to visit if you are in the area
From out of town and Came here by accident. It was some of the best sushi I've had in a long time and super friendly staff.
Great outdoor surrounding. Hint of Paris feeling, Mediterranean vibes with a touch of Japan. Our waiter Roli(Rolando) was amazing! Very polite staff. Plus a belly dancer..kids friendly environment. Great date night!
One of my favorite spots for Mediterranean food. it was so tasty. service is consistently good. it has a nice atmosphere.
The sushi was not bad. The parillada sampler was highly recommended if you would like to try multiple samplers. The service was good. The dessert was delicious. Although the souffle tastes more like a lava cake to me, it was still good.
Food and envirement both amazing! They have a lot of vegetarian options! Coming back for sure!
Great food, just confused why this middle eastern restaurant had sushi. But the kibeh was top notch.
1st time to the restaurant and the risotto was delicious. Definetly recommend this restaurant!
I can't believe that SAWA offered the worst service that I had in my life ! I think last sunday was my unluck day ! The waiter was so rude, slowly and doesn't care to attend the clients with satisfaction. The filet mingnon and the lamb seemed like piece of cheap meat ! The meat was cold, hard and ov...
Average food. I felt a little bit cheated. Good ambiance and service. But food can be improved
Went for lunch for the first time since I've enjoyed their happy hour food and drinks many times. The lunch menu price for the kafta kebab is too much for the small portion. One of the rolls my friend ordered looked dry and dark like the tuna was out all day as a sample. I will not go back for lu...
Great service but the food it i nothing out of this world for the price
Higly recommend!Excellent food with very good server's!Kind and professionals manners!
Love the place. Everything is great including prices. Hogly recommended
I sat down to eat and I was not attended, I decided to go for another option and when I did not see anything light I returned for a sushi and ordered a table on the terrace. The lentil soup really good, it was very small and with a lot of rice and at the end I ordered a salad with ginger dressing th...
Food is good, staff is nice, but the girl that helps on the bar is very rude. She is not nice with the customers.
Not good
Lamb chops sucked
Service was great, which is why I gave them 3 stars. The grilled octopus was delicious, filet kebab bento box was just ok, vegetarian kibby was not good at all. Its hit or miss.
We were there Friday night, excellent food & ambience, was a lovely evening. The sevice was very attentive & we met the chef as well. They also had a belly dancer!
Food is overpriced and ok at best, and the service is slow
Great service especially the bartender Roberto , he knows what he s doing. I m looking forward to coming back!!

Just got out of the movies and decided to go for a snack and drink. I had the sushi and a drink at the bar. It was my treat for a great week.
Friendly service and a great varied menu offering a variety of Mideast, Japanese and American dishes. They have a wonderful 7 days a week happy hour drinks and food menu that goes 4-8 pm. The lollypop lamb chops are very delicious. The steamed pork dumplings in ginger soy sauce is also a winner.
Really nice ambiance! Enjoyed watching the dancers. Salmon Kabobs were amazing. Would recommend. Really nice for a date night :)
I'm giving them 1 star because it's needed to write a review.
The food was old and did not have a nice look, the taste was disgusting and the service slow and careless, we ordered drinks and they came after our entree was served, and because we asked for them again. The dessert came before the entr...
Disrespectful employees who do not know how to treat people and customers. Such a shame !
Dog friendly, food is awesome , staff is great! Music to get you going!!
All very well served ... excellent attention ... Jay took care of us ...
The service was fast ...
The drinks did not have much liquor
In general super good
Staff needs training. Our appetizer was served to another table, replacement took forever. Staff tried giving us someone else s sushi. The whole thing became a joke between us and the two neighboring tables. And here s a tip to waitstaff: when you really screw up a meal, don t force the guest ...
Horrible service. Waitress spent more time avoiding the table than helping us and when she did come around she was incredibly rude
Great atmosphere and great people! Their happy hour is pretty great. It was such a great place that i went there twice on my birthday trip to miami! Scott and Trevor were great and even remembered my party when we went back.
The sushi rolls were great, food calamari, the lamb pops were good too!
...
Food is absolutely delicious and drinks are amazing. Service is the best!! Thanks Sawa for a great time always!!
Very bad experience. 45/50 minutes on average to wait for food. Don't even think about coming.
This is probably THE BEST HAPPY HOUR in all of Miami! They have over 60 full portion food items and tons of great drink options on happy hour, moet bottle specials, and their happy hour runs every day. And in addition, the ambiance is gorgeous! The patio sits under giant palm trees and the statue in...
Did Miami Spice at this place and it was amazing! The lamb was exquisite! You can bring your dog along and dine outside. They have a menu for pups!
Soo romantic, great ambiance, love the custumer service, very affordable.
Vibrant ,fun restaurant offering Mediterranean fare .Enjoyed the atmosphere and food.Large outside deck seating
Wow, Sawa, you are amazing!!!!
I went for an event and
Sawa surprised us with a Japanese and Lebanese Feast. They decided to preview the Miami Spice Menu that day, and it was sensational Basil Hummus: the color was so different, it was green with a hint of flavored basil. The texture was perfec...
Outstanding! Great service, great food, great wine. Is there anything else in life? Will definitively go back. Highly recommended.

We went on a beautiful Saturday, so we sat outside in order to enjoy the weather. Our experience was disappointing. Slow service and the food was nothing special.
Nice outdoor dining area under palm trees surrounded by statues. Half Med & Japanese. Two of my favorite cuisines. Good service although it took some time before anyone asked me what I wanted to drink
Its been 4 years since I've been back at Sawa because I didn't understand their concept on my first visit. It's still confusing as of today. Is it Mediterranean? Is it Asian? Is it a tapas lounge? Or a Hookah lounge? One thing is for sure. Their happy hour is probably the best deal in Merrick Park....
Unbelievable amazing and The most Delicious food !!!!!
Very nice place, with the correct protocol due to the pandemic
After we seat for 15 minute without service we decide to leave, manager was careless he not even bother to ask, never coming back again .
