Boca Raton is a mecca for upscale dining and sushi restaurants are no exception. Check out my favorite local sushi spots - after all anyone can make a California Roll, but these options take sushi to the next level.

Morimoto

501 E Camino Real, Boca Raton, FL 33432-6127

Located in The Cloister East End, the renowned Morimoto features creative ingredients and perfectly balanced flavors. For Boca Raton Resort Club members and resort guests only.

Yakitori Sake House

271 SE Mizner Blvd, Boca Raton, FL 33432-5009

Yakitori has been a landmark destination in East Boca for those seeking authentic Japanese cuisine. Known for their traditional Japanese cuisine and extensive menu and centrally located in Royal Palm Plaza.

Sushigo

477 N Federal Hwy, Boca Raton, FL 33432-3927

He is known as Chef Joe, and he takes fish seriously. Sung Gook Joe, a sushi veteran who worked at Nobu in Miami Beach, presides over his 30-seat eatery with stern rigor. Don’t expect genial shouts of “irasshaimase” upon entering or goodbye waves and smiles upon leaving. The pristine and pricey cuts of fish, however, are a joy. Some are flown in from Japan, and some are blasted clean of microbes and parasites in his minus 80-degree medical-grade superfreezer.

Lemongrass

101 Plaza Real S, Boca Raton, FL 33432-4837

Lemongrass Asian Bistro has transformed your dining experience to a whole new level.

Oceans 234

234 North Ocean Boulevard, Deerfield Beach, FL 33441-3801

Oceans 234 is an award-winning, oceanfront restaurant in Deerfield Beach offering the finest dining experience in South Florida. Situated just steps away from the sand Oceans 234 is more than just a breathtaking view. Bonus - not only do they have my favorite sushi dish - Jalapano Hamachi - they are only place on the beach with fresh, never frozen fish.
