We had a fantastic dining experience at Miso. The portions are small (but the prices per meal are not high either), so we ordered eight different dishes for the two of us and finished them all. The food was fresh and delicious, the atmosphere was relaxing, and our waitress was friendly and helped enhance our experience by giving us great recommendations.

It’s amazing to see Chef Thuan and his staff doing such an amazing and incredible work, everything was wonderful! Our server Vivian was super kind, sweet and helpful. All the tapas we had were delicious! The service was incredible! The environment wonderful! Thank you !

First time and we were both impressed. The food is excellent and the place works. You can talk without excessive noise level, which I would say was energetic. Turnover is pretty fast and we left full! The menu is huge. As a suggestion I think maybe 3 set menus would work great to showboat a wide range and make ordering easier. And for the gourmet lover maybe a chefs set menu? On the negative side. One of our group is a non drinker. Have some mocktails of alcohol free beers on your list please. Look forward to next time and I think we will take some 0% beer just in case.

Just had an incredible meal at MISO Japanese Tapas, and I can’t say enough good things about it! The food was outstanding, and the service was top-notch from start to finish. We started with the spicy miso soup, which had the perfect kick to warm things up. The signature tots were a game-changer—crispy, flavorful, and ridiculously addictive. And the dragon roll? Easily one of the best I’ve had, fresh and packed with flavor. Every dish we tried was amazing, and the attention to detail in both presentation and taste really stood out. If you’re looking for a spot that delivers on both quality and experience, MISO is definitely worth checking out!

We visited this restaurant twice and would like to highlight the taste and freshness of the Japanese tapas, as well as the impeccable service. On weekdays, it's not very crowded, but on Friday and Saturday evenings, it's better to book a table in advance. We also liked the loft-style design and the young, trendy crowd! The portions are small, but you can order several and try different things! It's quite expensive for such small portions, but it's really worth it!
