    I always have a great experience at any location that Seito has. The sushi is fresh and made to order and the selection of sushi and variety is abundant. I really enjoy the Baldwin Park location and it is closest to my house. I really wish Baldwin park would have additional stores and boutiques to offer while walking around after sushi. This little neighborhood is clean and well manicured but it reminds me of a posh ghost town.

    They skimp on the ingredients and the presentation is lacking. I ordered a lobster roll, it's common to find sushi restaurants that serve their crab rolls with fake crab, but lobster! really fake lobster. What a shame. I can't imagine that crushed seafood in the shape of lobster would cost anymore than that of a crab roll, so I don't understand the justification for an increase in price. It's an expensive restaurant that doesn't provide the ingredients or the serve to justify it.

    Must get the Bento box for lunch (every day) Love the sashimi, I get the chefs choice, and never have been disappointed. I promise you will like this place. My friends all love the Dragon rolls. Try it and yell at me if it is bad, but that will never happen.

    I've been quite a few times and always enjoy it. I want to branch out and try some of the meals instead of just getting sushi. I like the sweet potato tempura, sunset, lava, and torchimaki rolls. Just had the lychee & pomengrantini and thought it was good but had a slight taste of cough syrup to it. After the first sip I forgot about the cough syrup taste. If you have a dog you can sit outside, most of it is in the shade.

    THE place to go for sushi. We are in Baldwin Park, so it is also incredibly convenient. The waitstaff is fabulous... we go in maybe once a month, but the waiter last week simply walked up to us, smiled and said: "The Benton Lane?" Nice that he remembered. The sushi is great and comes out incredibly fast. If you want to take it easy, order your wine or cocktail and wait to order the food.... it's that fast. The ambiance is great... very contemporary, relaxed, and intimate. They have seating outdoors, as well, and it's great on a mild night to watch all the people on the avenue. Also a great place to watch some of the parades that Baldwin Park puts on, including the "Vespa" ride and especially the Christmas parade. BTW, the sushi "bar" is a great place to sit also, to watch the sushi chefs up close.

    I prefer this Seito location above the others in Central Florida (quiet off of the main street). Lunch on the patio is a standard must each month for us, plus it's easy on the wallet. The service is attentive, never annoying. I enjoy the seaweed salad with conch and a bulgogi beef bento box. Order a separate sushi side however (i.e. spicy tuna), as your california rolls in the bento leave you wondering what the hell happened.

    The food is not bad actually, but it's way too pricy (but reasonable in that area). Not a real traditional Japanese style, but the server and decoration are very fashion and neat. if you just want a light meal or talk to someone in business, this is not a bad choice.

    We are fans. This location is much better than the one in the Winter Park Village. It's bigger, it has a better layout, and has nicer furniture and decor. The overall ambiance is great and it's fun for everyone whether you are on a date or with a group. Seito Sushi has four locations in all and their website is organized nicely with details and menus for each. We'll have to try the other two locations in Celebration and Sandlake. FYI, the only location that is on Open Table and that takes reservations at all is the Sandlake location. We were the first ones of our group to show up so we hung out by the bar and had a drink. They have a pretty good happy hour that lasts until 7:00PM. It's a full bar with decent wine and beer to choose from. When our group finally got there, seven in all, we still had to wait about 20 minutes but it wasn't too bad. We just had another round of drinks and caught up with our friends while we waited. The food was good. Edamame, miso soup, spicy lobster roll, and the sunset roll were all really good. The summer of love roll was the only disappointing thing we ordered. The service was slow but expected because of the size of our group and it was a Friday night. All in all, Seito Sushi is good and we recommend trying it if you haven't.

    Awesome sushi in a hip atmosphere. Service has always been excellent and closely supervised so your sushi is perfect. We always ask for a new wine suggestion and as my husband loves wine - he has not been disappointed in their choices. The spicy selections are blended nicely w/o being hot or uncomfortable to eat. We love this restaurant - take a walk around baldwin park and stop at Seito's - you won't be disappointed!

    I'm in love with their sushi here. I have yet to try anything but their sushi, but judging from what other's plates look like I will definitely try something different next time. Y'all know from my previous reviews that I'm really big on environment and ambiance, and both locations I've visited (Baldwin Park & Turkey Lake) are both beautiful. They lose one star, however, as it takes FOREVER to get the food. We waited for close to an hour tonight just to get about 5 different rolls. Unacceptable, considering dinner for three was over $60.

    This fantastic review is based on today's lunch visit with my mom and her bf. However, Mom and I have eaten here at this branch of the local mini-chain (there are two others in addition to this one) Seito like, oh, about 20 times so I feel that all in all my review is pretty right-on. Anyhow, this time was about 1pm on a Monday (I tried to tell mom that you shouldn't eat seafood on Mondays as there's no fishing on Sunday, but I got the blank look from her and the annoyed "It'll be fine" from her better half). There are 5 tables outside - all were empty. From the looks of it, there were 3-4 tables inside with diners. - 1 Star - Inattentiveness to cleanliness. The table next to us was un-bused for over 20 minutes. Ick. The soy sauce bottle we were brought had a cilantro leaf adhered to the outside. Like - it had adhered when it was damp and now was dry and was REALLY glued on there. Like decoupage. But with less magazine clippings and more... herbs. - 1 Star - The waiter seemed like a nice guy so I feel bad slagging off on him, but really it was completely way too complex to order (um, he couldn't understand our orders, even though they were from the lunch menu, which only has about 9 choices and then bento boxes which are about, oh, 5) from him as we had to point and explain... A bit maddening. But then he brought... The wrong stuff. Sigh. Nice, but not all that on top of it. + 1 Star - Value. I think that most restaurants are overpriced in Orlando. Coming from LA, where salaries are higher, I am baffled that the prices in the land of Mickey are about the same as the land of LaLa. So to find a place where you can get a pretty nice meal for $10 is great! We had a steak teriyaki bento box, a California combo and a Deluxe sushi combo, plus a side Moyashi salad for $37 + tip (lunch includes one drink per person - a $2 value, more or less) + 1 Star - The sushi is very fresh and of good quality. I appreciate that the slices of sashimi were nice and thick - not the scrawny slices that often come up for lunch deals. My sashimi deluxe had some of the nicer fresh snapper I have had in a while. Three slices per fish - I think that they were: salmon, tuna, white tuna, snapper, and... a couple others. I ate them with alacrity. They were darn good. +1 Star - Free refills on soda! Okay, so maybe I secretly have a craving for Taco Bell and the freebies at the soda fountain, but I always feel that charging for what costs pretty much nada to the establishment is a rip. So it was nice that the waiter brought a pitcher to refill our sodas was... coolio. + 1/ -1 Star - At this particular location, parking is free and on the street. Which is great alot of the time as most of the time it's easy to come by. But then again some times (not this particular time mind you, so my neutral review...) it can be a nightmare to find a spot. Totally random. All in all, Seito is one of those "hey I want sushi" "oh, let's not drive far" "yeah, let's go that local place" "ok but I'm not showering or getting all fancy to go" "ok" "okay" places. Not a go-far-out-of-the-way places, but always dependable and pretty tasty. I have never had anything but a solid, if unimpressive experience here. And today was just like... every other day.

    My favorite sushi place in Orlando! Great selection and wide range of prices. They've recently added on a bar/lounge area that also has more seating. It just keeps getting better. Love the infused sake!They also offer GREAT lunch specials. $10 sushi bento box anyone??? Always good service and meals come out promptly!!

  • Kara R.

    One of my favorites in Orlando! The sushi is great as are the bento boxes! I always have a hard time deciding. The lunch specials are fantastic! Great value. I truly love this place...the only criticism I have is that some of the servers could use some improvement. Overall they are satisfactory to good, but some could definitely be more attentive and customer service oriented.

    Seito in Baldwin Park is my favorite for sushi in Orlando. The sushi is always fresh, the portions are generous and the infused saki is just what I want to go with my meal. Try the lychee infused saki. The TNT and Popeye rolls are my fall back when I can't make up my mind, but most of the selections I've tried were well prepared and presented. The service can be just a little slow when they are busy, but not so much that it makes the experience unpleasant. It's one of the best places in town to enjoy a nice meal outside as well.

    took my daughter and her roommates here on a friday night. it a great place to go if you like sushi and dont want to do the chain restaurant thing. it was crowded and we had to wait about 5 minutes or so. there are lots of tables, two with the floor lowered so you climb in..not sure the name of these...and a sushi bar. lots of room for lots of people. they also have outdoor seating which wasnt being used because of the cold. service was okay. you order by filling out a sheet and the rolls etc all come on one big platter for the table. my daughter said the seaweed salad was tasty. the vegetarian asparagus roll was said to be good as well. i had the tempura shrimp roll which rocked but i had to ask for more eel sauce. i didnt taste any or see much on the roll itself. we drank water and didnt have dessert.

    Senior sushi we love your food but really wish you'd bring back that happy hour special with five dollar dirty Martini's! But seriously, Jason runs a fine restaurant with superb staff, food and beverage. Seito is a favorite in our dining routine! Everything is delicious and we have discerning palettes. New guests, you won't regret this choice!! -east coast floats - Orlando

    We came here on a Saturday night after shopping all day. We were looking for a good sushi restaurant and Yelp guided us to Seito. I made a reservation via Yelp and we only had to wait about 10 min after arriving. I noticed others without reservations had to wait 35 min or more. We ordered the Rainbow roll, Spicy Tuna, Ichiban, Shrimp Tempura and the Philly roll. All of the rolls were pretty good. They all tasted very fresh. The Rainbow used krab salad instead of crab meat for the filling which was a little disappointing. Other than that we enjoyed the rolls and we would definitely come back next time we're in Orlando. They have several specialty rolls that sounded delicious. Seito is a trendy restaurant and has a nice bar area as well.

  • Sarah D.

    Me and my hubby didn't know where to go for sushi, so we looked up this restaurant. Upon arriving the atmosphere was wonderful and the drinks were great. However when we ordered the sushi it was falling apart in our chopsticks, and the quality of the fish was below par. We did order three different sushi rolls & for an app, the tuna kobachi. The original price of the Tuna kobachi was $15... they charged us $4.00 to add avocado which was about a quarter of an avocado. That is just absolutely ridiculous! I have been many places in the world and even locally to try great sushi restaurants.. This was by far one of the worst experiences I've had. If you want to go for a good drink, that would be my only advice. There is no need to eat sushi at this establishment.

    RAMEN. They've been serving ramen at lunch for quite some time now, and that ramen has finally graduated to the dinner menu. And I've been there twice this week for it (no shame...) You can choose from a light, traditional shoyu ramen with egg and chicken thigh, or the creamy pork goodness of the tonkotsu ramen with pork belly chashu, a to-die-for Lake Meadow Naturals soft boiled egg and a little ginger. You can't go wrong with either so really it depends on whether you're in the mood for a light or rich soup. I've settled on the tonkotsu as my go-to. At $14, it is a little pricier than my other fav ramen in town, to be expected from a Baldwin Park location. They're also doing a izakaya menu on weekends now, with small-plate selections like shrimp on soy bean grits, herbed sashimi, and pork/crab spring rolls. We tried these and a triple tail roll on our last visit - all very fresh and good, but that ramen's stolen my heart.

    My first two visits to Seito (Baldwin Park location) have been very good experiences. Since my wife and I are fans of ramen, and she had recently informed me that Seito started offering ramen dishes, we had to go check it out. We each got one of their dishes - the Shoyu Ramen (chicken-based, with roasted chicken stock) and the Tonkotsu Ramen (a pork broth, with pork belly and a Lake Meadow pullet egg). I liked both dishes a lot, but the Tonkotsu is the big standout here. That delicious egg they put in it is the icing on the cake, but I might consider it an essential. In any case, you have to try this ramen. The second time we ate there, I gave the sushi a try. I tried the triple tail (tuna, yellow-tail, salmon, avocado, cucumber, wasabi soy, seaweed) with an order of the house hot sake. The sushi was very good and I must return to try some of the others. Outside seating available, so bring the dog if you like.

    Unique, flavorful and innovative rolls on the 'changes everyday' menu. We ordered 4 of the rolls and the BBQ edamame. The edamame was different and interesting although it proved to me that I'm a traditionalist when it comes to edamame and prefer to stick with sea salt. The rolls were all very different and delicious! Would definitely visit again.

    I love Seito. I think they truly have the best sushi rolls in the Orlando area. They are more expensive than most, but not overly pricey. I have had many of the rolls on the menu and all of them are different, inventive, and delicious. The sweetheart roll is one of my favorites and is a must if the table is getting a handful of rolls to split. Their Osaka pressed rolls are incredible and unlike anything I've had before. They used to have one Osaka pressed roll on the menu, but now the flavor changes on a weekly basis. I have mixed feelings since I could come on a week with a flavor I'm not into, but it does force me to try something different almost every time. Their seaweed salad is a great starter to any meal. They also have excellent kimchi fritters. If sushi isn't your thing, they also do pretty amazing things with panko and chicken. They have nice happy hour specials on wine and martinis. The only reason I cannot give Seito a 5 star rating is because their service is so sporadic, you never know what you will get. Sometimes we have good service, but more often than not (especially recently) service is slow and poor. Hopefully Seito management can turn this around because even though their sushi is good, poor service will turn people away every time.

    Must try if you like fresh sushi! My gals and I tried this place during Orlando's Bite 30. Everything from their salads, sushis, and entrees were so good! I wouldn't eat here daily just because price wise is a bit expensive but definitely recommended for a nice occasion. Like most areas in Baldwin Park, parking can be difficult. It's mainly street parking or a parking lot area and required a walk to the location - nothing too far though. The atmosphere is business casual and the environment is more for mature people rather than younger crowds. They have a wide variety of drinks and wine options too. Service is upscale and really knowledgable of the menu. If you don't know what to order, the waiters are good at recommending options.

  • Jessica B.

    Seito used to be my #1 to-go-to place for sushi and cooked meals as well. Now that they have changed the chef and menu, it's only OK. Many of my family and friends favorite dishes are gone and even the sushi doesn't have as much flavor as it once did. It is clean and the service is always good, but we've given it 3 tries since the change and have been disappointed each and every time.

    Another Baldwin Park excellent restaurant for cocktail hour and hors d'oeuvres. The sushi is excellent the management is way above average and they attend to every one of your needs. They are more than willing to make sure that you have a great meal and very accommodating if you have a problem. Love going there for happy hour guess that makes me a happy hour freak as you get great values during happy hour.

    In being SUPER partial. They were one of the hosting events during the Baldwin Sip event. They had egg rolls and Saki. I tried the Saki and would only suggest it if you have a designated driver and don't have plans the next day. Now that egg roll...I would slap someone for that egg roll. It was so good. We didn't go in but it looked like and is close to the water. Would absolutely go again!!

    I came here for a quick lunch with a friend because I heard they now serve tonkotsu ramen. I was a little hesitant when I saw that a bowl of ramen costs $12! I ordered it anyway because I really like Japanese ramen and want to see if Seito makes it right. The ramen came in a tall bowl and the presentation was very nice. You can see pieces of ginger, bamboo shoots, seaweeds, the pork and the eggs right from the top. Now comes the taste, the broth doesn't have a strong pork bone taste. And to more disappointment, I don't even know what kind of ramen noodles they were using. The noodles had a flour-y taste. Then the pork was rough and dry. It was pulled pork as well. I think Japanese ramen should have a piece of tender pork meat in it... not dry and rough pulled pork. I found it strange. Unfortunately, the only things I liked was the egg. The decor inside is very nice and modern. It looks very fancy and clean. I might come back to try their other food selections, but I don't think I will try their ramen again.

    At one point, I would have rated this place a 5 star, but I am going to lower that due to several reasons. The main reason is due to the abrupt, dramatic change to their menu! The old menu was AMAZING, but the new menu not so much. A lot of the old items are gone, especially the sushi rolls! The sushi rolls they have are good, but are too over priced! $15 for some rolls, yikes!! The taste in some of rolls have change a little, but if you are new patron then you wouldn't notice the difference. The original dessert menu has been completely changed. The desserts they had prior were the best, but the new ones not so much. Please bring the original menu back! It's good idea to introduce new items, but don't change the entire bill of fare! The ambiance is nice with a slick decor. The waitstaff that I had was great, well trained, knowledgable, professional and polite! The hostesses were all very polite and always had smile on their face! They complemented the establishment very well! The bar area was ok and bartenders were not bad. I never had any issues getting my drinks. One time I was with a couple of people and my food never came out in a timely fashion. Everyone else I was with had gotten their good, but I had to wait an additional 10 min. There was some kind of mixup...mistakes happen and an acknowledgement or an apology would have been appropriate at the time. Other than that it is cool place to take a date to or have a drink...and hopefully they will bring back the original menu!

    If you have not been here in awhile--things have changed. For the better or worse depends on how willing you are to move away from your old favorites and try something new. The menu is smaller, with a lot of old favorites including Chicken Yakisoba, some of the sweeter cocktails, and a few other things taken off the menu. The menu went from a few long pages in a leather cover to a double sided paper. Our server explained that the chef is seeking to focus more on local and seasonal products, so that the menu stays fresh. Higher end ingredients such as duck and oxtail have been added to the menu. On this visit we tried the new Sriracha Edamame which threw me off at first with its kick but after a few pods we were loving it. Think hot wing flavor but with house made sriracha. We also had the always wonderful Miso Soup and some fried pork Gyoza. The Gyoza are small but have great flavor. Way better than your usual takeout gyoza that tends to be greasy and too doughy. For our meal we split 3 rolls: Sweetheart, Ichiban, and TNT Crunch. Sweetheart is my favorite of them all. No one does a sweet sushi roll quite like it. I love the crunch of the coconut shrimp and the mango sauce. TNT Crunch has a mild flavor but comes with a spicy sauce on the side and tempura flakes. Desert is different too, now. They offer teas, a few cake or bread based deserts, most of which come with a house made ice cream or sorbet. I was sad to see the Creme Brulee off the menu because their's is one of the best I have ever had! Perfectly crisp on top with a light sweet custard. Oh well. We didn't try any of the new deserts but one that sounded sort of like a bread pudding was a contended. We will be back again and again for our favorite sushi, and hope to try the Oxtail Yakisoba next time.

    I highly recommend Seito Sushi! The sushi always tastes fresh and they have a variety of combinations that you can't find at other sushi restaurants. The restaurant has a great ambience that translates well from a trendy happy hour spot to a date night out. It's conveniently located in Baldwin Park and many neighborhood residents can walk to their location. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone in the area.

    Seito NEEDS to open up a spot down in Miami. It would be a huge hit! I'm amazed by how fresh and how perfectly they executed every dish. Granted I have only been here twice. The first time was in 2013 and I instantly fell in love. Came back to Orlando this past weekend and I knew it was a must to stop by here again. Best decision I ever made. Better than that was the fact that we arrived 15 minutes before happy hour ended. This is seriously the best happy hour I have ever seen. Everything I wanted to eat was luckily included in the happy hour menu. I ordered the BBQ calamari, the sweetheart roll, the shrimp tempura roll, and hot sake. My total was $23. Just when you think it can't get better than that, you taste the food and you just wanna jump for joy and probably order 5 more rolls. I would have but I knew I couldn't handle it. The sweetheart roll was my favorite although they were both delicious. I was hesitant about the BBQ calamari but I love calamari so much I figured I had to try it, and I'm so glad I did. It was so delicious. The hot sake was yummy and now a few days later I find myself daydreaming of Seito and planning my next Orlando trip. I love this place.

    I went to Sieto after it was recommended to me as the best sushi in Orlando by one of my close friends. I was skeptical because I never thought I would like sushi but I later found out I was wrong and I have eaten sushi ever since. I finally found the opportunity to go when I meet a girl that loved sushi. I thought "what a perfect first date opportunity to get sushi at Sieto." I picked my date up and drove down to Baldwin Park. When given the choice between outside and in we went with the outside table since it was a beautiful Florida day and the area around the restaurant is clean and surrounded by small shops. Shortly after being seated and looking over the drink menu our waiter, Dylan, came over to introduce himself. We decided to go with wine to drink. She knew what she wanted and order her wine righ away. Now it was my turn and I was struggling to decide so he offered several choices on which wine I would like and why. After getting our drinks and talking for a little while Dylan came over to ask if we were ready to order. I told him I haven't had a lot of sushi so I was unsure of what to get since the menu had so many options of sushi rolls. Once again she was the expert and I was unsure of what to get. He said "no problem." And offered a few suggestions. I went with the spicy tuna roll and loved it. My date asked about a few different rolls and right away he knew what the ingredients were. We got our food and loved it. We each had another glass of wine and left satisfied. Overall it was a great experience. The waiter knew what he was talking about and offered good suggestions. The food was exellent and the environment was great. Although it was busy there was never any pressure to leave after you were done eating. I will definitely go back and now I'm the one suggesting it to friends as the best sushi in Orlando.

    This location of Seito seems to be my go-to place to bring friends from out of town. The drinks are strong and tasty, and the sushi never disappoints. With a nice casual atmosphere, we just sit back and catch up on life over a great meal. And with consistently good service, I never have to worry that this is a bad choice for my guests. Even my snooty "big city" friends from New York raved about the service we received on a late night visit. They also loved the Spicy Tuna Osaka Press, which had a nice crunchy texture to it. This was different than a normal sushi roll, since the rice is cubed. I've also enjoyed the Mango Tango roll, the Sweetheart Roll, and the simple Seito Roll. Delish! But be warned- order these rolls one or two at a time. They creep up on you and the next thing you know you are stuffed! And no sushi should ever go to waste! Even if sushi is not your thing, the Nabeyaki Udon Soup or the Bulgogi Beef are both great choices. Both are nice sized portions, so everyone is bound to leave full and happy.

    My family and I came here for dinner last weekend and wanted just a quick meal but this turned out to be one of the worst dining experiences I've had in a long time. We arrived at about 7pm and didn't manage to escape until almost 10pm. That is an absolutely joke. The service was pretty terrible overall and our waitress, although she was nice, had extreme OCD. She would count out loud after taking each person's order and took forever to get us answers on questions we had about the menu. We didn't order anything complex and she mentioned that 1 person's order is what slowed down the delivery. The bartenders are extremely indifferent and seem incompetent with no sense of urgency. The restaurant really wasn't even that busy which is why this was so confusing. If you are going for maybe appetizers and have 3 hours to kill then this is your place but I was so thrilled to get out of here. Plenty of other sushi restaurants in the area to choose from with much better service.

    It is not often that I update a review for places and even more rare for me to then update a second time. I was very disappointed after recent menu changes (specifically lunch menu) which prompted my first updated review for one of my favorite spots. As you can tell from the review I was very disappointed and a after being a regular for lunches stopped frequenting the local eatery. I was reached out to by a manager who was very friendly and understood my concerns (it is nice to know that they keep an eye on the online opinions of the establishment) and so I started going here again mainly for dinner (because lets be honest this sushi is the best I have had in Orlando YUM). Today I stopped by for lunch and I was so pleased to see that they have updated the lunch menu to be more similar to the menu I loved in the past. They have several lunch specials which include miso soup, ginger salad, and an entree of your choice for $9 as well as sushi specials all reasonably priced. Today we had the bulgogi and shrimp curry along with our all time favorite ultimate spicy tuna roll (pretty spicy so be warned but delicious). Both meals were served fast and fresh and were very tasty. I am so happy to say that I will frequent this place for lunch again! Yay! :)

    No matter what, overtime we dine at Seito, we have a great experience. We like to sit at the bar, and the staff is always excellent. We never have to wait for a drink and they are always happy and full of knowledge of menu items. The atmosphere is very pretty and it's casual but fancy at the same time. We always bring out of town guests to Seito as well. Consistent great service and fresh, tasty, AWESOME food brings us back every time! :)

    Hands down the best restaurant in Baldwin Park. As far as the best Sushi in town, I feel like it's neck and neck with Amura but Seito has the edge for being in BP, and I want to support my hood - this place rocks! The ambiance is great, there are great saki offerings. Their happy hour is great - truly some of the best martinis I've had in Orlando...on to the food. Sushi is why I go here but they do have other offerings as well.... There is not one Sushi roll I've had here that I don't like. I was sad they took off the "Winter Park Village" Roll from the menu - but if you ask, they will make it for you! My husband and I try to go here at least once every couple of months not only for the amazing food, but to support the local business. One other thing to add, the music they pipe in is incredible!! I need to find where they get their music from.

    I wish I could remember all the rolls we had! Besides being visually stunning, they were all delicious. From spicy to sweet, we had rolls to please everyone at out table. The two that stood out the most were the Distinguished Gentleman and the Beauty and the Beast. We also ordered their take on Poutine, but I think it could've used some more gravy. Service was excellent! Would definitely come back if I'm back in town.

    Best sushi in Orlando! Soooo much better than Amura! Amura is quite overrated in my opinion. I'm always on the hunt for the best sushi in Orlando and I really think I've found it! The sushi here is fresh and all of the rolls are amazing! Go to the Baldwin Park location and get the: -Beef Gyoza -Tuna Tataki -Kodiak Roll -The Distinguished Gentleman Roll Also, the place is gorgeous and very modern chic inside. Decor is beautiful. The ambiance is great for a date night and even a small group of friends.

    I love this place and have for years but just had to give a shout out to their new bar bites menu available only at the bar during happy hour. We got the salmon poke which had a hint of grapefruit flavor and these awesome fried rice paper chips to scoop up the salmon, so fun to eat! Very inventive, creative and delicious affordable snack to help us drink faster :) thanks seito for coming out with this delightful addition. Also our service was amazing as usual, don't know his name at the bar but he was attentive and entertaining as well. If you haven't been do yourself a favor and check out the new menu, chef knows what he is doing!

    The lunch menu has been completely overhauled - three words: house-made ramen! Three different ramen options are available, all with fresh noodles and complex, divine broths. Gone are the pedestrian, generic tempuras and bento boxes of the past - the new lunch menu is novel and creative. And delicious! I absolutely love the Shoyu Ramen option, with amazing grilled chicken thigh meat, a perfectly soft-poached egg, and a savory, rich broth. I can't wait to try all three. Also delicious was the cucumber salad (featuring sea beans), the boa-buns, and the dumplings. The dumplings and buns apparently change daily, and were very good on my last visit.

    Just ate here for the first time and it was fantastic. The service was prompt and friendly. The decor and ambiance are contemporary and impeccable. I had the duck comfit salad, cucumber salad, the triple tail and kobachi rolls and all were without question, exquisite. I will definitely be back.

    I met some friends here for Happy Hour at the bar. While I did try any of the drinks, they seemed to have a good selection of beers and martinis. The happy hour food was unfortunately not for me. 3 of the 4 items were spicy (and I don't do spice). So I decided to just order off the regular menu. I started with the clear broth soup. This was one of the best ones I've ever had! There were tiny crumbles of tempura in it that just added a crunch--so so good. I could easily have had a second bowl. I also ordered the shrimp tempura roll and the lobster crunch roll. The shrimp roll was just okay for me. There was something in there that tasted weird to me--something I'm not used to being in shrimp tempura rolls but I'm not sure what. The lobster crunch roll was amazing! I would definitely order it again. I'm not sure what I was expecting it to look like, but it wasn't this. It almost looked like strings of crabmeat. But it was definitely lobster. And the crunch with it just made it so good!

    I really love the ambience of this restaurant. The food here is always consistent and fresh. I am always looking for a place to have sushi for lunch. Seito sushi is one of my go to's for lunch with the girls. The restaurant is really tiny. They have a very reasonable price lunch menu including $9 lunches. I usually just order what I'm craving so it can be about $40 for my lunch.

    I can't say that I am sushi connoisseur, but I think Seito is really good with top notch service, too. The Miso soup came out first, and it was unlike any I ever had. This one had a lot of character taking on a smokey flavor. The Seaweed Salad was good but nothing special. For my meal, I had the Bul Go Gi (beef) dinner which was also very good. The Bul Go Gi came out as tender, coarsely sliced beef cooked with onions. It had a delicious flavor also taking on a smokey quality. Sushis are very creative with many of them containing avocado and quite a few spicy ones. All came with an explosion of flavors. We had the Corona Roll, the Mango Tango and the TNT Roll. Service was attentive and helpful without being overbearing. There are quite a few craft beers on the menu including a few local (Florida) ones. Quite a few people were drinking wine, so I assume the selection is also good. If you like sushi or would rather have just a Japanese style meal, give Seito a try!

  • Ty K.

    Everything I get here is beyond amazing. The sushi and meats are the freshest and local. I usually order the bulgogi dish with a couple sushi rolls on the side. The entrees are hot and delicious. Although the dress code seems to be more upscale, people can always order food to go or sit outside and enjoy passing pedestrians and beautiful sunny weather. I highly recommend this to everyone that is searching for top notch meals and a friendly atmosphere.

  • Yelper H.

    I wish this place would stop changing all of the good menu items! Or at least when someone orders something warn them it's different. The beef negimaki used to be our FAVORITE appetizer, but now it's totally different and tastes awful! There is no longer a crunch to it, just mush. Please change the beef negimaki back to the previous recipe. We used to come here twice a week (live walking distance within the neighborhood), but now only come once a month and have been seeking out other local sushi restaurants. Every single one of my favorite rolls is gone, and when I ask if they can still make them I'm told no. Also, they will not make any substitutions. I asked for no shellfish on the sashimi platter (at dinner, not lunch) and was told they could not accommodate that. Seriously? This has never been a problem before?! On a positive note, the wine and drink menu is fantastic and service has always been great. This place used to be 5 stars and one of our favorite "go to" restaurants. Hopefully they will listen to all of the complaints about the new menu and changes, if this happens we will definitely start coming back more often again.

    Seito has a new menu for lunch and dinner. They have emphasized their stronger dishes and they have done away with some of the less commonly ordered items. I think the focused, smaller menus for lunch and dinner are better than the one large menu they used to have. With fewer items on the menu they can focus on achieving a higher quality dish with fresh ingredients and artful presentation. I like the ramen choices at lunch- thought the noodles were very good. Seito is by far the best restaurant in Baldwin Park- a great place to meet friends for drinks and a bite :)

  • Monica D.

    I've been to Seito at least 5 times. It is hands down my favorite sushi restaurant. I'll tell you why: 1. The sushi. Each roll is carefully constructed, distinct and consistently delicious. The "Distinguished Gentleman" is a must have. Other mentionables are their mexican inspired roll and the "Sweet heart", but you can't really go wrong it seems. 2. The ambience. I don't know who designed the interior of this place but they deserve an award. It is so modern and chic yet warm and inviting, zen, artful and asian with clean lines and relaxing natural colors. As a major plus the music they play is always on point. Softly in the background you will hear a blend of relevant and and hip sounds from indie to dance. 3. The Service: Polite intelligent service has been consistent. Knowledgeable wait staff always timely and attentive. One weekend we came 2 days in a row and contemplated going twice in a day.

    This was our "go to" lunch and occasional dinner spot for many years now. We'd always take family and friends here due to the great menu and atmosphere. Stopped by there today for lunch only to find out the bento boxes along with other items are no longer available on the newly revised lunch menu. That was unfortunate as we wound up leaving to find another place for lunch. I'm afraid until some of the items are brought back we will no longer be patronizing this establishment. Such a shame as we really enjoyed dining there.

    This was the first time I've eaten at Seito. I had heard mixed reviews over the last few years, but decided to give it a shot. It was meh. The service was incredibly slow. It wasn't very busy at all. We ordered two rolls - the Ichiban and Sunset rolls first. When the waiter finally came back we ordered a Seito roll. The first two arrived fairly quickly. I liked the Ichiban as long as I dipped it in the spicy mayo and eel sauce. The Sunset was fairly bland but too spicy for me at the same time. My boyfriend liked that one though with the ponzu sauce. We sat for a while before our last roll showed up. It was a cucumber wrap doused in vinegar which I was not expecting. The inside bits were good but I disliked the cucumber wrap. It took way too long to get our check. Overall it was just meh. Some of the food was good but I didn't like the majority.

    Family and I would come here at least once a month to enjoy the beautiful surroundings and delicious food. I also loved introducing it to friends when they visited. Today I came with my mother for a special one on one lunch and was surprised at how empty the restaurant was. I chalked it up to people travelling for the holiday, but realized it was likely due to the extensive changes to the lunch menu. No more bento boxes and a very limited offering of sushi. We ended up leavin g without ordering anything. The news has sent Shockwave through our family. Anyone have a recommendation for a good japanese restaurant?

  • Tiffany R.

    I went to Seito Sushi for a quick bite at the bar during happy hour. First, the staff was awesome! They were ready for suggestions and were very attentive. Because it was happy hour, I ordered a pomegranate martini which was delicious. i ordered the calamari which comes with the most YUMMMMMYYY BBQ sauce and dressing! Seriously! I almost licked my plate! For entrees you really can't go wrong with sushi-DUH! I tried the distinguished gentleman roll. What can I say, I'm a sucker for aioli. Other rolls that hit the spot for me is their TNT Crunch and Kodiak. (If you go to the location in Dr. Phillips try the Yellow Fever- my favorite roll from ANY sushi place I've tried!) Note that each location has a different menu. Overall, Dr. Phillip's location is larger and has more variety.

  • Nat R.

    This restaurant has a great atmosphere and very friendly staff members. My review includes a rating of 2 because of the menu. All menu items (besides salads and soups) have meat or meat products. It's rather upsetting that it's 2015 and people who create menus still don't include vegan/vegetarian options (there was 1, but it was very bland and I could not even have the sauce). The Chef and waiter were VERY accommodating, but whoever created the menu for this restaurant chain needs to be more open minded and realize that to please all palettes, one may want to consider 86ing the meat products.

  • Haru O.

    I have been a regular at this restaurant for a couple of years now. Have loved their sushi grand and other dishes. Today we went and learned that they removed the sushi grand from their menu as well as their fried cheesecake, a family favorite. Apparently they have a new executive chef. I hope they don't get too far away from what made them great which is simple, fresh and delicious Japanese food. As an ex-NYer, I've been to the Nobu restaurants and sometimes they end up being too specialized.

    I am not normally wanting sushi being a vegan. But this place could make me want too. Several types of sushi that fit my diet and everything my friends ordered they raved about all night. If you are fortunate enough to have Natalie as your waitress/server you are guaranteed to have a 5 star dining experience.

    A reliable good choice. I have been here for lunch on business meetings and the service is always prompt and very good! There is enough variety on the menu to Please anyone.

Great ambiance for a swanky night out or casual dining with children.

    The lunch menu has been redesigned to appear as more a la carte than the previous version. The net effect is pricing out the locals working and studying in the area. Gone is the Sushi Combination for example. Sure was a good restaurant.

  • Sheldon S.

    Amazing sushi from people that know what they're doing! I went with a group of friends, who had been there before and know one of the sushi chefs. He basically asked us what we like (and don't like), and he proceeded to make us rolls based on our likes. I tried 6-7 different types of rolls and every single one of them was better than the previous roll. From the decor (very classy) to the staff (very professional) to the food (very impressive), I can't speak highly enough of this place! For anyone that is looking for serious sushi, THIS is the place to go in Orlando!

  • Charlene C.

    Love the food here! My favorites are the bento boxes and the Kodiak sushi roll. Service is friendly and welcoming but slow at times (it is generally pretty busy, so I cant complain too much) The reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is because my mother was given a visibly dirty fork and plate. This is probably an isolated incident because it seems very clean otherwise, however, it was a turn off for us that day.

    Finally checked this place out for Happy Hour after hearing so many rave reviews about. They have a small menu of items(about 4) and cocktails on the Happy Hour Menu that runs from 5p-7p during the week (not sure about weekends). My girlfriends and I sat at the bar and placed our orders. I had the berrytini which was ok and definitely had a berry taste but almost in a cough medicine sort of way. Not sure I would order it again. Had one of the HH rolls which was a spicy tuna roll of some sort that was fried (didn't get the name and it's not on the online menu) and the lobster roll which was off the regular menu. I like spicy foods so I enjoyed the spicy tuna roll. To me, the lobster roll was sorta bland. They were huge rolls and generous with the lobster but more than enough for 1 person. Thankfully my friends helped me finish them as I think it's a major sin to waste such good food. My friend ordered the spicy chicken wings off the HH menu. Those were super yum. I would definitely get those again. Service was good for the most part. Only minor issue was that one of my friends placed an order to go for her husband and it took forever even after we finished eating. She finally had to flag down a waiter to ask about it. While it was a fun time and the food was tasty, I'm not sure my husband would be down for the expensive rolls and swanky setting. We will probably stick to our hole in the wall place in Winter Park.

    It had been a very long time since I had been to Seito's. This would be back when it was located in Winter Park. It was great then and I daresay that it's better now. They have great happy hour specials on drinks. This was my first time trying Ichiban Kirin, and they have it on tap, frosty, cold, delicious! They have a couple of food items as part of the happy hour specials but you have to sit at the bar where the seats are set up in a row in order to get it on it. It would be good if they extended it to anywhere you sit but that's just me. My friend ordered the Lobster crunch roll and it was a mixture of sweet, salty, crunchy just dancing in your mouth; amazing. I was of course hung up on the garlic lime edamame. What the heck do they put on those things? I was sucking the life out of those tasty green pods and I'm normally not that big into edamame in general but the seasoning took it to a whole new level! I also got to try the California B roll which comes with masago. They make excellent Sushi here, and I'm sure the other food is just as excellent judging from the smells wafting towards our table from the kitchen. Come during happy hour to get in on the good deals.

  • Mike O.

    So disappointed in the new menu!!! I live in BP and used to visit this establishment very often with my wife and family. Now they have drastically changed thier menu I think in an attempt to divide their menu and patrons with their new restaurant opening up across the street. I tried the lunch menu only to have 3 rolls to choose from (now enlarged to 10), no bento boxes. I'm not even sure they have a sushi chief on site for lunch. I was very disappointed. I gave them one more try for dinner. Half the menu is gone for dinner also. No clear broth soup, chicken tempura, lobster roll, bento, not even Mexican rolls are on the menu. We ordered 3 orders of chicken teriyaki for the kids and all the chicken came out charred. Wow !! what an incredible drop in the quality and variety for this restaurant. I will not return unless they bring back many of the old menu items. The crowds are gone...as am I!!

    My wife and I were in town to look for homes. She had been here and wanted me to try it. The service was great. We both enjoyed some wine during happy hour and feasted on some delicious garlic lime edemame. I will be back to eat this again once we move to Florida. (we like to frequent the same places especially when they are so good) Our rolls came and were a very nice size. I was impressed and think that most people would be. Sitting outside was also a nice way to enjoy a good meal.

    Seito sushi has completely redone its menu and eliminated many popular items. Most sushi options. Bento boxes, appetizers and other signature items are simply gone. The menu is now a single page with very limited options. No longer worth a trip. One of the better Orlando restaurants is now gone.

    Seito sushi has great quality Japanese food, sushi, sashimi, dessert and drinks. I try to go to Seito Sushi for lunch usually. The lunch bento boxes and sashimi / sushi specials are a good deal and very delicious. They come with soup and a salad as well. They have daily happy hour and on weekends it starts at noon and includes beer, sake, martini, and well drink specials. I have also tried one of the desserts that was amazing which had frozen lemon mousse and layers of cake. It was very satisfying. The atmosphere is really great inside and the outdoor seating is a fun spot to people watch and enjoy the weather on a nice day.

    We were in Orlando for a trade show and were in the mood for some sushi. One of my colleagues was from LA and I have had sushi around the world so we were a little skeptical having sushi in the Magic Kingdom. We found Seito in yelp and were extremely surprised on how good this place was. The location was convenient and the atmosphere was hip, modern yet still felt like a Japanese restaurant should. Menu was excellent and reasonably priced. Fish was fresh and the chefs selections were excellent. The hamachi kama was extremely well done. They had fresh uni that day and we all agreed it was the best uni we have ever had. Best of all dinner and drinks for 3 of us was only $135 including tip. Crazy cheap for good sushi. I spent 4 times that much in Vegas for a clearly inferior meal. A legit 5 stars. Will definitely plan on going there again next time Im in Orlando.

    Seito in Baldwin Park lived up to the hype of the other reviews. This was an excellent dining experience. We went for happy hour, but could not control our ordering. I ordered an Ascot, which included Earl Grey and Sage Infused Vodka, St Germaine, and ginger ale. Excellent. The BBQ calamari was perfect, as was the ginger and garlic edamame. The wilted spinach salad (chilled) was nice and refreshing (more like a palate cleanser than a salad). I meant to order sushi, but was tempted by the bulgogi. Wow. Just the right amount of sweet, with onions cooked to perfection. My husband ordered the tuna, which was stunningly good--a most beautiful piece of fish. Even the napa cabbage slaw was delicious. Our server was personable and attentive. The outdoor seating was nice. You could kinda sorta see where the lake might be. My only complaint was having to listen to the loud and pretentious woman next to us, who insisted on eating her sushi roll with a fork, telling her daughter how much prettier her friend was, and shouting her daughter into submission over something having to do with cell phone spelling. Oh well. Nothing is ever perfect. But Seito came very, very close.

    This place would have gotten five stars if it wasn't for our waiter. Last night we decided to go here for dinner. The restaurant has a very nice atmosphere to it. The lights were soothing and it just made you feel really comfortable. Our waiter was some dude named Addison. He started out just fine. Great attitude, polite, and respectful. I had the Spicy Tuna Roll and the Eel Roll. My boyfriend had the Insanity Roll, New York Roll, and the Spicy Tuna Roll as well. They were all delicious. My boyfriend didn't like the insanity roll because it didn't have any "kick" to it at all. We sat in the area where the bar was. I have to say it was very nice in there. Loved the couch they had and all the other decor. While we were enjoying our evening we noticed that our waiter was becoming more and more "M.I.A" if you know what I mean. We ate and once we were done we wanted a to-go box and the check. Our waiter was talking to some guys that he obviously knew and stood at their table for quite a while. My boyfriend was staring right at him. This went on for too long and I started to get upset. The more he ran his mouth the worse my temper got. Luckily, another guy named Dan (Superman theme plays) came along and asked me was everything okay and if he could help me. Politely, I told him that I would like a to-go box and the check please. He was so sweet. He went right ahead with everything and got us taken care of. I asked him what his name was, shook his hand and gave him a tip. I usually don't carry cash but I just happen to have some. I graciously thanked him and told him that they need more people here like him. After all of this went on don't you know dude was STILL TALKING to those people?! Im like what in the world? What kinda -ish is this?! You mean to tell me that these people come and you stop everything you doing and forget that you are at your job? He obviously don't like generous tips and he must be well off in life and don't need the money. Overall, everything was great here except for ADDISON. When you go here AVOID ADDISON at all cost! RUN!!!! Im not joking. You will be better off getting your own drinks and turning in your order yourself if you had to rely on him. Not professional at all. Ask for DAN! DAN IS YOUR MAN! I don't know about anyone else but if I am working a certain area I would not let someone else come in and possibly steal my guests and my tips! Well that is exactly what happened. Dan also ended up helping a few other people there as well. I was so heated that I didn't even get to try their Creme Brulee and I love that dessert. I bet it was delicious! Everything else at this restaurant the host, the food, the atmosphere, DAN, the friendly people, the lighting- EXCELLENT! Just avoid Addison at all costs if you can. He will make you think that this is a self-service-Japanese-restaurant. Guess Im supposed to go and make my own sushi to huh? Might as well if he is the waiter. Geez man...

    Food fantastic; service is amateur! We keep going here for the food, but the service is seriously bad. On our last visit, the waitress did not understand much English, which is fine, but she also did not know much about the menu, which was frustrating. Every time we go, we need to help to clear our 1st plates (edamame, etc.) to make room for the sushi. Each time, the server just stands there, very impatient, as we scramble to make room on the table. Shouldn't they clear the 1st plates, then bring the others? Bad coordination. Last time, when the food server brought our sushi order, he pushed it all in front if us, where there was NO room, and he spilled my expensive, full cup of cold sake. When I pointed it out, he said he would replace it. We never saw him again. When I mentioned it to our waitress, she brought me a napkin. No sake replacement, or anything! Terrible service! I rate a 2 stars only for the food.

    So I've been coming to this location of Seito since it opened and it used to be my favorite location for sushi here in Orlando. We stopped here for lunch yesterday and I was gravely disappointed that they don't even list a vegetarian roll on their menu anymore. Of course it is there if you ask for it, but it is just a generic vegetable roll. I ended up having a noodle dish with extra veggies which was delicious but again, it was something I had to ask for as nothing was vegetarian as listed. Our server, Dylan, was awesome, and dessert was delicious. The Seito Sushi on Turkey Lake Road offers fabulous vegetarian roll options, but this location says they are unable to make those here for me. Honestly, next time I will make the drive to the other side of town to that Seito for my sushi cravings.

    Great food but it takes way too long to actually get your food. I work not too far from here so I can honestly say that I have eaten here 30+ times in the last two years. Always 45 minutes to get my food.... The place is not ever too busy or not of a large space to reason for the delay in food.

    This is in close running to be my favorite sushi place in Orlando. If we were going on location and ambiance, this would win. However, I have favorite rolls at other Sushi places. But if you had to make me choose at this moment in time, yes my fav sushi place! I have been here on various occasions, chillin' with my ladies, on dates, with a group of people...and every time has been successful and enjoyable. They have great service and I adore the location. I guess I have a weakness for Baldwin Park. Also sits on the corner at the end of New Broad and has fabulous outdoor seating, great for people watching!! And puppy watching - my fav! They have delicious martinis, awesome rolls and pretty good fusion dishes. The house salad is a must, great portion and always fresh. I usually get rolls when I come here but yesterday I got the egg noodles and chicken in a tangy sauce. YUM! It was delightful! I also had requested cucumber water and they were more than willing to accommodate. I loved it! I will continue to be a regular at this location and suggest everyone try it out if you want somewhere awesome to grab a drink or food!

    We have been in Seito Sushi restaurant 4 times during past 12 months and it was pleasant experience , fresh food and exceptional service. But today 03/08/14 every thing turn on its head. There was 3 different waiters serving us and at the times there was confusion in between them who really took the order and if the order was placed or not in they're system. For the first time we order in Seito sweet potato tempura roll, Big turn off, it was tasted of cheep margarine or butter substitute , .After one byte it tasted like a bad margarine.Is Seito Sushi chef cares about it?

    The capital expenditure is evident, and fortunately there was money left for top flight ingredients and intensive employee training. That's the Zeitgeist folks. Here are the details: Excellent decor and Fung Shui. You can tell that money was spent on a high end designer. And the layout just flows. Friendly Staff. The dudes at the sushi bar work hard, but they aren't so focused that they forget to say hello or chat about miscellany. They're friendly and approachable. Happy Hour. Nice drink specials and a few bucks off the Maki. Excellent food and artful presentation. To borrow a line from Forrest Gump. "That's all I have to say about that." I found the gratuity suggestions to be a little patronizing. I can personally calculate a percentage faster than a Krey Supercomputer, and I know I'm not alone. Also, the female servers seem to suffer, just a tad, from ISIS ( inflated self image syndrome). I just made that up, but they have a certain "I'm better than you" thing going on.

    Modern, hip, and cool with lounge music piping beckons this anchor at Baldwin Park on Main St. One block away from the spectacular lakeside promenade is this contemporary sushi restaurant. There is wrap around outdoor sidewalk style and lavish indoor seating. The interior is stark and very stylish with a floor to ceiling wine display. Several years ago when this place first opened, that entire wall was a giant blank canvas. I was hoping that they would build something spectacular and they did not disappoint. The wine list back then was also very stark, not today. I am very encouraged that this sushi restaurant has embraced the wonderful world of wines. From the varied and balanced selections it is clear that they did not just accept a giant wine distributor name brand friends. Cheers! We choose a glass of Saarstein Riesling, which had a nice bouquet with hints of mineral and a glass of 2009 Cuvee de Blanc, Huguenot Cellar, Santa Ynez Valley, CA. (Grenache Blanc 33%, Sauvignon Blanc 33%, Gewurztraminer 33%, Love 1%) A clean crisp herby dry white blend that was ever so lightly sweet on the palate. The menu features the regular suspects of rolls on a "sushi list", signature rolls, sashimi, nigiri, appetizers, soups, salads and main courses highlighting Korean and Japanese cuisines. Of course the endangered Chilean Seabass is on the menu. Not sure anyone pays attention to that anymore. I love this fish. But I have to take a stand. Wonder if it will ever come off the endangered list? Did I mention, I love Chilean Seabass? I am not a fan of the sushi list. There, I made my preference known. I believe a restaurant should have servers who are knowledgeable about the menu and be able to guide a guest in ordering. Not a guest marking on a piece of paper their order, why don't I walk it to the sushi chefs also. Maybe, I can pick it up from the sushi bar also. Okay, I know I am getting carried away. On this visit with young hungry bellies to full, who are a little squirmish about sashimi we engaged with these choices: Please visit my blog for full food review. This restaurant has come a long way over the years. I am tempted to say that it has matured. Long gone is the ditsy "hostess", welcome to the personable, courteous team of greeters, servers, and food runners. Oh, a manger even came over and inquired if everything was okay. Swell! The sushi rice for the rolls were well balanced in acidity and texture. Although the menu was very safe maybe the interior space made up for the cool factor. Just a thought, a couple of adventurous items and this restaurant can really up its hip factor.

    The kimchee fritters are very good! I'm not a fan of their food and boxes. The sushi made me (and a couple others) feel sick. I really wanted to like this place more. It won't be my last time there, but maybe make your orders specialized so you don't eat things you might not like. Nice servers :)

    Q: Sure you can do sushi, but what else? A: Quite a bit! I had to tag along to this location when I wasn't necessarily in a sushi mood. So, it was going to take more than chirashi, sushi, and udon to satisfy the senses this time. Looking through the menu, I opted for a seared tuna entree, based on the description and the side items. It came out with what could almost be described as a horseradish béarnaise, sushi rice, and some tricked out coleslaw. Oops, I didn't mention the tuna. Seared perfectly, the inside still had a pulse. It was delicious. And the quantity was just enough to warrant the price (which wasn't obscene). The interior of this place is gorgeous, I'm still partial to Shari's interior, but this location is a very close second. The wall of wine bottles was a chic touch.

    Seito is a beautiful location with a nice ambiance. The staff is friendly in spite of their lack of knowledge. I went as a person allergic to shell fish. The menu is shell fish heavy and overpriced. There are maybe 2-3 sushi rolls without shell fish in them. The miso soup came and was barely luke warm. The taste was fine but soup should be hot- or close to it. The meal I ordered was what the waitress recommended and it was a cucumber roll- not rice (which I did not know until it came). For 14 dollars it would not have fed a moderately hungry infant. I asked if I could find a roll like the one my lady friend had and substitute out the shell fish- you would have thought I was asking a quantum physics question. The staff is not at all prepared for people with shell fish allergies. The menu is limited and well thought out- and the food that I did have was overpriced and a shade above poor. My bill was 25 dollars with tip for one roll for the girl I was with and 2 luke warm miso soups as well as a headache from dealing with a polite but ill prepared wait staff unable to solve a simple "what can I get without shell fish?" question. Ambiance is fine...I personally have been to numerous places with better sushi/value. If you have a shell fish allergy- zero stars. If you have no shell fish allergy- 2 stars if you actually know sushi (3-4 if you are dazzled by complexity but don't know good sushi). I live less than a block from the place, and will never go back unless it's to drink sake or accompany someone else.

    I've been going to Seito for the last couple of years and I've always liked it, but like any other place there are some cons. Their sushi is always on point. I'm a huge fan of the Philly roll, an American classic that you can find in any restaurant. I find most places put a ton of cream cheese in their Philly roll, and Seito is the exception. The ingredients are balanced perfectly. Their Alaskan crunch roll is great as well, probably a new favourite of mine. I don't usually like smoked salmon in my sushi, but this one was great. Their regular tuna and salmon rolls are delicious as well. I recently tried their tuna steak and was amazed. It's done rare, which is the only way I'll have it. It was crusted with coconut which wasn't as overbearing as I thought I'd be and I really enjoyed it. Their ginger salad and miso soup are always very good. This place probably has the best miso soup I can find. I used to always order the bulgogi and liked it a lot, but it's a little over seasoned these days. The biggest downfall for this place is that they no longer offer bento boxes during dinner. They opened up their options for bento boxes, now including a sushi and a sashimi one but it's a shame since I only ever go there for dinner. Another con is that the service is so hit and miss. It used to be a lot worse, partially due to the protocols of the restaurant previously and they've done a lot to improve it but you seem to either get a phenomenal waiter or waitress that checks on you every 10 minutes or you get one that won't refill your drinks once during a two-and-a-half-hour meal.

    My favorite place! And I love the location. Definitely a place for everyone, families and locals are always there for early dinner and lunch; hip crowd for late lunch and drinks. LOVE the drinks (Strawberry Basil Sip). The food is really delicious and consistent, you can count on Seito to always deliver! I've been going there at least twice a month for over 2 years!! My only complaint, lately the kitchen seems a bit slow, so it takes over 20 mins to get our food... what's up with that? The sushi bar is fast, so now we order a sushi appetizer since we know the kitchen is slow :-)

  • Marcus S.

    I'll keep this short and sweet; food is great, i highly recommend and the wife and i frequent this place. However, the one issue i will bring up is their lack of a good happy hour menu. They have a few options for happy hour on drinks but where is the happy hour on food? I don't need a crazy menu, just a few rolls at discount prices is all I'm asking for.

  • Laura V.

    This is still by far my favorite sushi place. I may be biased (first date with my husband was here, and my law school friends and I often meet here for drinks and rolls), but Sieto sushi is where it is at. The ambiance, the food, the drinks, everything is top notch. We all love coming here because it is the best. I have never had a bad time here. The food is ALWAYS great and the service is almost always perfect. I will always have a place in my heart for Seito Sushi, and they remain the top of their game.

    If it wasn't for the name, there would be no reason whatsoever to think that this location and the Winter Park location are related. The Baldwin Park restaurant is modern and trendy on the inside, with a lot of silver and black and interesting lighting. We ordered three rolls: The Alaskan, the Sunset, and I think it was called the Torchamaki or something like that. For once, I skipped the hamachi nigiri that I usually get on my first visit to a sushi restaurant because we were already spending enough money and for some reason, they wanted $6.50 for two pieces. All three of these rolls were very good. The Alaskan had a nice krab taste with some tempura crunch, and was topped off with a bit of eel sauce. The torchamaki had a unique taste, due mainly to the torching of the whitefish on top of the roll giving it a hint of a burnt flavor (it's not a bad thing). The Sunset (universally voted as the favorite) was wrapped with salmon and topped with a super-thin slice of lemon for an interesting citrus flavor, added to a little sweetness from the spicy ponzu sauce that comes on the side for dipping. Some unique options, to be sure. We almost opted for one of the two chirashi selections though, because there were so few maki options on the menu that we were interested in. We had to scour the menu to find three special rolls that weren't fried, filled with cream cheese or based heavily off of that most boring of all sushi, the California Roll. And as good as our rolls were, they were a bit small for their price. At over $40, I would have hoped to be full enough to skip that trip for frozen yogurt afterward, and I'd say that at many sushi places at that pricing tier, I would be. So Seito looks great on the inside and the sushi is good, but the pricing seems to reflect the decor more than the food. I might come back if I'm in the area, but honestly Sushi Lola's isn't far away and I'd rather be there.

    One of my favorite places for sushi. My favorite place in Orlando for sashimi. So fresh. The plating is beautiful. It's pricy, you're paying for great quality. Totally worth it. Service is well. Clean, and atmosphere is nice.

  • Jennifer T.

    Great happy hour! $5 martinis were excellent. We had the seaweed salad, wahoo roll, lobster roll and the beef app (amazing)! The service was excellent and they had brown rice for our rolls that was really good. Think I found our new sushi spot!

  • Tom B.

    Baldwin Park's Seito location is nothing like Winter Park's from the appearance. This joint is nice (not that Winter Park's is shabby). On my first visit here, I tried some masago (fish egg), which I had first tried for the first time a week earlier at Mikado, and some snapper and yellowtail sashimi. Two rolls completed the meal, the Venus roll (shrimp tempura and krab) and the signature Seito roll, consisting of two kinds of tuna, salmon and crab, but with no rice -- instead, it was wrapped in sliced cucumber. It was imaginative and refreshing on one of the hottest days of the year, but not something I would order again. The wine seemed overpriced for its quality, and for such a classy restaurant, the napkins (paper) were pretty flimsy. Also I was seated in a booth which caused an ache in my back. And when the bill arrived, it was about 20% higher than I usually pay for a sushi lunch. Those are the negatives. It seems that in spite of the beautiful atmosphere, I wasn't smitten by this Seito location, but I'm willing to give it and the others another try.

    I live near the restaurant and have been going here since march. Its an amazing restaurant with a great atmosphere. Wether you want to just have a drink or eat dinner this is definitely the place to go. Lake baldwin is a great area and amazing place to walk around post dinner. Ive been to seito sushi about 7-8 times now and have tried to order something different every time. Surprisingly the only thing I would not recommend are the edamame (pretty bland), believe me Ive had edamame thats boiled to perfection with butter and a hint of salt. These felt microwaved and dried. Lets start with appetizers: Gyoza (pork dumplings) are delicious, their shumai were ok, their vegetable tempure was really good (zuchinni, carrot, onion, and 2 pieces of prawns), Their ceviche (conch, octopus and whitefish with crisp vegetables in lime juice) is extraordinary! Ive never had such great quality civiche and with such plethora of seafood. Its a good palate cleanser. Their ginger salad was spectacular and if you just want some soup their clear broth was pretty good. Their bento boxes are spectacular: you get a lot of food and at a great price. Chicken teriyaki, 5 peices of california roll, miso soup, ginger salad, 3 pork dumplings and rice all for 9$ .... im dead serious! add and for the same price you can also get the shrimp and vegetable tempura bento box. As for their sushi: Mexican roll (all time fav), sweetheart roll (for the sweet tooth at heart), boston roll, california roll, rock n' roll, soft shell crab roll, spicy octopus, crunchy shrimp, and for the vegetarian their sweet potato roll was pretty good.

    The location is great. The sushi was phenomenal. They have outside seating available. It is a nice place to bring your dog to dinner, sit and catch up with a friend, and people watch. If you get a chance, come here for happy hour. Great deal on 2 for 1 wines, sake, and beer! The atmosphere and the food were great, but had to give it a 4 star as opposed to 5 because our waiter was on the ruder side. Unfortunately, I do not remember his name. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the place!

    I have traveled a fair bit around the world and am obsessed with sushi. Out of all the places I have been, Seito is by far the BEST sushi restaurant I have ever been too. I would highly recommend as the rolls are delicious, the staff are very friendly, great location and the happy is pretty good too (I usually go for a plum wine or two!).

    I caught up with a dear friend last week at Seito Sushi. I have to say, I forgot for a quick moment that I was in Central Florida, and was pretty impressed with this place! The interior is chic and pleasing to the eye, and there are a wide variety of seating options to choose from. We were promptly seated with no reservation, and had drinks and edamame on the table in just a few minutes. We ordered the Godzilla, Mango Tango, and Ichiban rolls and thoroughly enjoyed each! The Mango Tango was the most interesting for me - putting a sweet twist on sushi is quite a lovely idea! The sushi was very craftfully presented - the panko from the Ichiban was served on the side (a nice touch when sharing in a group with varying preferences). The other rolls all had a special sauce or garnish on the plate, which nicely enhanced the flavors of each. The service was great - their waitstaff clearly works together to keep guests happy! Our server was very friendly and efficient. When we were given our menus, we were told that there was another simpler sushi menu that exists, but that they ran out of copies of it that night. Our server gave us a couple of examples of more simple rolls that we could order. While I appreciated his accommodating the restaurant "running out of sushi lists", I think it's a little odd that a sushi restaurant would run out of their sushi list... and not have a backup plan in order. The gourmet rolls listed on the regular menu were really delicious - and totally my cup of tea - but if I were a good ol' California roll kind of person, I might be disappointed if I couldn't browse over some less intimidating choices. Overall, Seito was a great experience. The sushi was creative, fresh, and very tasty. The excellent service added to the quality of the experience, which I'll be sure to share with my Orlandoan friends! Also, for those fellow Diet Coke enthusiasts, the fountain DC here was phenomenal.

    My favorite place to get sushi in Orlando. My favorite is the spicy lobster roll but almost anything you get is good. My other favorite order is the bulgogi. Normal service, little trendy semi-upscale interior. There are a million places to get sushi in Orlando but don't waste your time going anywhere else. All three orlando locations have the same menu and they are consistent as far as taste.

  • Tatiana B.

    I wanted to love Seito, especially this location, but I just like it. Unfortunately, what I like is not their sushi. It's not bad, it's just meh. I like their happy hour (5-7 daily). It includes various martinis, wines, beers, etc. I also like various items of their appetizer (small plates) menu. The snapper carpaccio is very fresh and tasty. I loved the shrimp dumplings. They are different but delicious. The dumpling melts in your mouth. And the beef negimaki which is asparagus, carrots and green onions wrapped with a thin sliced steak and served with teriyaki sauce. The sushi rolls are just ok. I love the idea of sitting outside and having a few appetizers while drinking a cucumber martini (Yes! They have one! It's on the sweet side but decent).

    Before even stepping in to Seito Sushi, I have to admit that I did a little research on the various sushi places around Orlando. After wanting sushi for quite a while, I do have to say that Seito Sushi satisfied our craving. Located in Baldwin Park, Seito Sushi is a modern, upscale restaurant that still has very affordable rolls and specialty rolls of sushi, along with bento boxes and all of the staple Japanese foods as well (chicken teriyaki, etc). We decided to go with the fanciest roll on the menu, the Distinguished Gentleman, as well as a classic Salmon & Cream Cheese roll. Our food was delicious, and honestly the sushi was light enough that it really made me want to try one of the desserts, which included red bean or green tea ice cream, or even tempura ice cream. The other thing I enjoyed while dining here was the good service. Our waitress was patient when it took us a while to decide on which rolls we wanted to try, and got us anything we needed right away. My one word to the wise, however, would be to either arrive to Seito Sushi early or even make a reservation in advance because typically (especially on a Friday or Saturday night) there is usually a wait for a table, even if it is just a ten-fifteen minute wait. Although there are outside dining tables in addition to inside tables, we all know that the way the weather is in Orlando, eating outside typically isn't the best choice. Also, the parking situation in downtown Baldwin Park can be less than ideal, with parallel street parking (hint: drive around the corner and look for the open parking lot area in the back of Baldwin park). But all in all, I definitely think that my partner in crime and I concur on the fact that we will definitely be dining at Seito Sushi again in the near future. And hopefully, I can get my dessert next time.

    This place was decent, I'm not sure what the rave reviews are about as far as best sushi in FL. For Orlando its probably very good. The food was decent, basically what you would get at any Sushi restaurant. The decor inside was nicer and seems to try and attract an upper scale crowd. What makes this place good in the pretty area where its located. The service was slow, for a weekday afternoon and only a few customers outside.

    I came to seito to take my friend here for her birthday. From start to finish, including the cocktails, appetizers, entrees and desserts, everything was exceptional. The service was good, our waiter was knowledgeable about the ingredients on the menu and answered all our questions with detail. After hearing about this place I decided to take her for the first time not knowing what to expect, and after the whole experience I was extremely impressed with the food and service. This restaurant made an ever lasting first impression. Well done to management and staff. I recommend the tempura cheesecake for dessert, and for cocktails I recommend their unique "pear", additionally their manhattan was made well on point, I think also because I was thirsty. This place will definitely see me more often.

    Seito Sushi is pretty decent in terms of Sushi in Orlando. Sadly, it's not the best sushi I've ever had, but for Orlando it is very good! The ambiance is more modern and very much date-appropriate. The Baldwin Park area is great as well, and the restaurant is near a large parking lot. It can be a little bit loud sometimes. We started out with some garlic edamame-- it was... edamame. Pretty hard to mess up! The sushi is pretty delicious and there is a nice selection of rolls. I found that there were a few sushi "staples" that I have found at many other restaurants that were not present on the Seito menu, but that's ok, because there are so many delicious things to choose from! Their spicy tuna roll was very fresh-- I enjoyed it, but it does have spicy mayo on it for those who are not a fan. We also got a Wahoo! (sp?) roll to try because it looked interesting (it was baked though)-- it was pretty good, though I think I would have preferred raw fish instead of the cooked. My taster-in-crime got a Godzilla roll and really liked it-- I'm not a fan of shrimp, so I did not sample. I'm looking forward to going back and trying more of the rolls-- there were quite a few I was trying to decide between. According to the server, the number of pieces in the rolls depends on which roll you get, though all of ours were 8 pieces. As far as the service goes, it was inconsistent. At first, the service was excellent-- our server was very friendly and funny. However, I guess he took a break at some point because in the middle of our meal we found ourselves without any beverages and waiting a while for the check. Speaking of the check, Seito is very expensive. I have been to a number of sushi restaurants where a spicy tuna roll was around $5, but at Seito, it was $7. I realize it's sushi and it's supposed to be expensive, but I feel like it is marked up a little bit for Orlando prices. That being said, the overall experience was a good one. The food was very tasty and the ambiance was great. I will be returning to try out more of their signature rolls and maybe some of their non-sushi offerings, too (they do have a full menu)! Food: 4.5/5 Atmosphere: 4/5 Service: 3.5/5 Value: 2/5

    Great sushi spot and 30-something hangout. If coming on the weekend, expect a wait or make reservations...or hang out at the bar while waiting (twisting your arm). The fish was fresh and the veggie tempura was great. This is a fun little spot.

    Best Sushi in Orlando! No doubt! I eat out about 5 times a week and this place is are favorite...great happy hour drink specials...wish they had sushi happy hour....I have eaten here over 100 times and yet to have a bad experience.

    I often go out for sushi and this has to be one of my favorites. I went with a large group of colleagues and we sat on the patio because the weather was nice. Our server turned a great meal into something truly special. We got a boat for four... A LOT of food. On top of that we ordered two feature apps and some extra rolls. I typically enjoy rolls more then the fish but this place made the raw fish so fresh... so tasty... so amazing. The snapper was one of my favorites. Order the fried cheesecake "or something similar to that". It was awesome!! MUST EAT when in Orlando.

  • Angela S.

    Service was a little slow, that I don't mind. Rating it down because of sushi vs price. For the rolls they offer their prices are too high. These rolls elsewhere are easily cheaper and depending where, taste better. Not my favorite. It seems no sushi restaurant will ever match my favorite. Didn't impress, won't be back.

    MUCH better since they got rid of that surely bartender that just leaned against the counter and acted like he was doing people a favor to get them a drink. Plus they have hired more pretty girls. Few too many male serves for a while, was starting to wonder about the place. Food always excellent though. Glad to see service is better, will dine-in more often now instead of take-out.

    Just imagine. Tiny little brunette walks into a fancy sushi bar by herself and asks for a table of 1. No, make that sushi bar for 1. Either way you get the picture. Po' lil tink tink. So I sit down and order. Waitress is quick, efficient, friendly enough for my taste. Unfiltered sake? The best. Warm edamame, also delicious. And then out came my Mexican roll. I'm not a picky sushi eater, mind you, but let's call a spade a spade. This was low quality. The rolls were falling apart, and the shrimp was not fantastic. You could tell they tried to fill in the gaps with an excess of cream cheese and avocado. Despite my over-service of delicious unfiltered sake, I could taste what I was not getting. Recap: No matter how much sake you drink, this place doesn't have to do their job to fill up the place, they just have to show up. I prefer Fuji on Lee Rd any day of the week.

    Great rolls, inventive, fresh and delicious. I'm a total sushi snob and this place was great. An impressive selection of traditional, signature, spicy, raw and non-raw rolls. We had almost an hour drive coming here given traffic that night but we'd all do it again in a heartbeat just for the sushi (oh I can taste it now). But wait there's more.... The sake menu is extensive compared to regular Japanese restauarants, not the largest I've ever seen but very adequte and extremely well chosen and described in the menu. I had the unfiltered sake, it was served in uber cool cone cups floating in colored water with ice. (nicely done except I kept dripping the water under the cup over the table...) The ambience is cool, trendy, spacious. However, I must take off a star for the service. I would like to take 2, even 3 stars off but the food and sake was too good. Our waitress was cold, hard to find, had that annoying fake smile on that made me feel like she hates customers. Our food took forever, I typically wouldn't mind but we had 2 kids with us and I asked for their teriyaki to be served first. Nothing came, I wanted to ask but our waitress was nowhere to be found (smoking out back? talking to her boyfriend?) I asked the maitre d', other waiters, help help the kids are starving, have been waiting for half an hour, but alas no one could help, "I'll ask your waitress they all said!" uh, thanks... When she did show up, she smiled in her annoying way and said "you know, I do have other tables to serve, not just you!". Oh yes, the sushi is that good.

    I've been pretty disappointed with Orlando's sushi selection lately so I was a little skeptical that Seito Sushi was going to be a disappointment as well. I was definitely SO wrong. This place = awesome. Our waitress was great - she was very attentive to our needs that night, making sure our drinks were full, and asking if we needed anything. I got the Kani Su roll which was krab, masago, & avocado wrapped in cucumber. I am a HUGE fan of sushi wrapped in cucumber but I don't find it many places. Let me tell you, it was amazing. I also enjoy the cucumber rolls because without the rice they are on the lighter side so I don't ever feel guilty ordering an additional rice sushi roll =) With that being said, I also got the spicy tuna roll which was great too. Fish was very fresh...basic roll but one of my favorites. Overall, I was very pleased with my experience at Seito sushi. I cannot wait to go back and try other items on the menu!

    As I've mentioned before, I love Seito for the food, ambiance and everything but when we went there for dinner tonight, the service was terrible - our party of three had to flag down waiters/waitresses to get our waitress's attention. If you're a fan of Seito's dinner bento boxes, I have bad news: they discontinued this amazing deal.

    I went here for lunch with some coworkers. I ordered the Bento Box and when it came to the table they were all looking in awe! It had a variety of items for a reasonable price. And, everything tasted great. At first I thought I couldn't eat it all, but once I started I couldn't stop. I do not eat seafood, so I ordered the chicken and they were able to substitute one of the seafood egg rolls for a non-seafood item. I am definitely looking forward to going back for the Bento Box again.

    Loved it!! So good. Classy but not too fancy! I had a great dinner - chicken tempura roll and asparagus roll. Had a good time. Awesome waiters - Makai. Nice corner spot in Baldwin park with lots of outdoor seating. Inside the tables were pretty close too each other - so you kinda were in peoples business. Beautiful decorative lighting throughout and elegant decor. I will def. be going back again!

    This is a tough review to write. I've been to Seito Sushi (both the Baldwin Park and the Winter Park locations) numerous times, and if there's one thing that's consistent, it's the inconsistencies... The place looks great, especially the Baldwin Park location after their remodel. Very hip, clean vibe with a decent sized dining room and a large "lounge" area (empty most times I've been there). The service, like many things, is hit or miss. It seems, oddly enough, I get better service when the place is busy than when it's empty. Some of the staff are great, friendly, informative. Others are robotic. The food is spotty too. Sometimes it's great, other times it's mediocre at best. I've ordered the same item probably over a dozen times, Tofu Teriyaki. I don't think it's been prepared the same one time. Every single time it's presented differently, the sauce tastes different, even the plate is different. The last time I went the sauce was almost flavorless and the vegetables were undercooked. No... that's not right. It's more like they held them over the pan for a second. I don't mind a raw green pepper, but raw onions are not something I like to pay for. Like many of the places in Baldwin Park, Seito has somewhat of a "captured market". There simply aren't a lot of choices, and like most of the restaurants in Baldwin Park it seems service and quality are set at a minimum since they know people will be coming in anyway. I don't mean to sound like I'm slamming the place, overall I really like it and I WILL return, but I just wish they could hammer out better consistency on the menu and keep hiring the good waitstaff and leave the bad ones out.

    They have uni! Seito is a lovely, modern sushi restaurant located in Baldwin Park, just next door to Uptown Wine Bar. You have the option of sitting either at the sushi bar, the cocktail bar, outdoors, or at one of the numerous dining tables indoors. The last time I came in I ordered a Velvet Devil Merlot (outstanding, a little smoky, try it!) with two pieces of uni and the saigon roll, both of which were delicious and beautifully prepared. The young lady who waited on me was very friendly and chatted with me about the wine and sushi offerings, and was all around pleasant and helpful. I highly recommend this place for its location, atmosphere, food and friendly service. Bring a date or a friend, they'll love it.

    Hands down, my favorite spot for sushi in Orlando. My 60+ yr old parents love the sushi here... that's saying something. The happy hour is really good, the drink specials keep growing. Tonight I had a $5 pineapple mojito, it was very tasty. Not too sweet, and just the right amount of mint. Some of my favorite rolls... The voodoo\ torchimaki (crawfish with or without blow torched white fish on top) The sunset (lemon and salmon..yum!) The kani su (krab wrapped in cucumber!) The sweetheart (coconut shrimp!) If sushi isn't in your playlist, there are still some really good options. The udon noodle bowl and tempura chicken are also delicious. Love you, Seito!

    My taller half and I were looking for a place within biking distance from Audubon Park. We found this place over three years ago and we immediately were hooked. We went every weekend and even started bringing the furry kid and taking advantage of the outdoor dining. Even though we don't live close anymore, this is still the only sushi joint that we frequent. It's a 20+ minute drive, but one that we're willing to make. The service is always impeccable, the drinks are stiff and creative, the rolls are inventive and well balanced. The managers (Jason & Sue) are always very friendly and take the time out to say hello, even when they are slammed. This is one of our favorite places to bring family, friends and co-workers when we want a fun night out or when we want a romantic place for just the two (or three) of us.

    So I have been actually going to Seito since January and it was FANTASTIC. I had stopped eating in Baldwin Park for a bit, but recently came back to the area about a week ago. Unfortunately, the quality of sushi there is lacking. I genuinely think that in the 3 months I had not gone, they hired a new sushi chef and unfortunately his style isn't something I'm used to. I'm honestly not sure if I will be back again for a while. Maybe at that point they'll switch back to their old sushi chef?

    I loved it! Great selection of non-traditional sushi for those who aren't into the raw stuff lol... Sweet heart roll, godizlla roll and rainbow roll are my favorite. They also have good bento box selections and wine.... Very pretty atmosphere, feels newage/trendy... Can get very busy/noisy during certain hours but it's also located in a very tight nit upscale community..... I don't live in that area but it's great to visit, get some sushi and take a walk down their shopping strip...

    Terrible food, fish was not fresh, it is the second time we when there. It was a business lunch, my client picked. The waitress has to leave early so before she brought the main dish, she asked if we want to order desert otherwise she will bring the bill....this was before we even had the meal. I returned my roll because the eal had Avery bad taste. TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE FOR SECOND TIME....no more chances for this place. Two miles from seito is SUSHI's LOLA, excellent food and service and way better place. Edy B.

    We went to Seito for a late lunch and ordered two bento boxes, one salmon teriyaki and one chicken teriyaki. They included miso soup, 3 potstickers, salad with ginger dressing, California roll, steamed rice and the teriyaki with vegetables. Everything was perfectly prepared, fresh and flavorful. The service was also impeccable. We also enjoyed the ambience and everything was very clean. We have missed having Seito in Winter Park and were delighted to be able to enjoy their food again in Baldwin Park. It was worth the drive over.

    Seito Sushi is the jam! I've been to the Winter park location, and was somewhat impressed. Today we went to the Baldwin Park location, and I was pleasantly surprised... it is simply gorgeous. It's a feast for the eyes I tell you! Like a fine hotel dining room. Everything I tasted was a knockout. I chose the Bento Box with Hot 'n Spicy Pork. It came a generous portion of pork and sauteed onions, rice, 3 fried dumplings, Miso soup, Ginger Salad, and a 1/2 order of California roll. Plenty of food for around $9! I also tried the Korean short ribs, Coconut shrimp, Bonzai roll, and Edamame. So good all the way around... The seating is well thought out. There are different sections, which creates dimension and ambience. Plenty of outdoor seating too, in view of the lake. Ultra-lounge music plays over the sound system. Service was very attentive. Seito is now tied with Amura for my favorite Japanese restaurant in town. Highly recommended!

    I was visiting Orlando and my friend said this was her favorite sushi restaurant in town. You know what? She was right! I wish this place was around when I use to live here. The location is very convenient with lots of parking available for a busy night. I love the interior decor. It's very modern with lots of window seats to enjoy the view. They have patio seating as well, but it was raining when I went. I asked for a booth by the window and the hostess sat me immediately. My friend and I ordered the Fried Kim Chi balls and Beef Negi Maki for starters. The rice balls were crispy and had great flavor.. Just like the Korean style kim chi fried rice. The beef negi maki was satisfactory, but nothing special. The dish is thinly sliced beef wrapped around asparagus and carrots or gobo (I couldn't tell which one it was) and teriyaki sauce. The pieces were a bit too big for one bite, slightly tough to bite into. We also ordered unagi and salmon along with the Godzilla and Wahooo roll. The rolls were fatastic!! I like my rolls spicy and crispy. We also had two happy hour drinks, $4 each. Overall, the food tasted great, the service was quick and attentive. Our bill came out to $64 before tip and it was well worth it. I'll come here again when I visit Orlando!

    This is one of my favorite sushi restaurants. The sushi is very fresh and the rolls are delish. A few of my favorites are the Godzilla Roll, Sweetheart Roll, and always the Rainbow Roll. I love that they offer the option for brown rice. If you are in the mood for an entree, the Ahi tuna dinner is delicious. The Kahlua cake dessert is sinfully decadent. The decor and ambiance are chic and trendy. They have a wonderful wine selection as well.

    One word: Torchamaki. I've been saying for quite some time now that Seito is my favorite sushi restaurant in town. It's not overly authentic, but I like my sushi to be, well, fun. I have no problem experimenting with new sauces or even *gasp* fruit on/in my rolls. So if you're a sushi snob, you might want to stop reading. The last time I was at the Seito in Baldwin Park, I had a great honor bestowed upon me. It was over the holidays, and my brother and sister (visiting from Houston) and I stopped by for a quick dinner. We were seated in the newly expanded portion of the restaurant, and then were told by our server that we were the first customers to eat the booth we were occupying! So, this entry is long overdue. My favorite roll is the Torchamaki. The roll is filled with a spicy crawfish salad and topped with a thin slice of white fish, which is then "torched". If you're close enough to the sushi bar, you will know when this roll is just about done: you can literally smell the fish blackening. This roll is so rich in flavors that personally I can only eat two or three pieces. It's best balanced out with a light roll! A light alternative is the Kani Su roll. It has it's own uniqueness: crab (or should I say, Krab?) wrapped in thinly sliced cucumber with a light sunomono sauce (similar to a light vinaigrette). This roll is almost like a palate cleanser. For those of us who don't enjoy ginger. My other favorites are the Popeye roll: fresh spinach, shrimp and crab wrapped in rice paper and served with an eel sauce as well as the Sweetheart roll: coconut shrimp, mango, cream cheese, apricot glaze and eel sauce (it literally tastes like the beach!). I've been to other Seito locations in town, but Baldwin is my favorite. The restaurant is comfortable and hip with a big city feel. I've made a pretty important decision in my current "Good Luck Chuck" status: I will never take a first date to Seito ever again. Or anyone I haven't been dating for more than two months, for that matter. I'm done with gazing into a stranger's eyes and seeing them light up as they taste the Torchamaki for the first time. Seriously, this roll is so good that deserves a bit more respect!

    I ended up here by accident, but I'm glad I did. I was in Baldwin Park early Monday afternoon and was suddenly starving. After careful evaluation, consisting of finding the only parking spot in Baldwin Park, I wandered into SS. Uh oh. Looks chic and modern. I went in and tried to peek at the menu, keeping my weight on my back foot so I could quickly escape. Too late, and before I knew it, I was politely seated and given a menu. Hey, this is not that expensive for a classy joint! I like sushi, most of it, but I can never remember what I don't like. They had Bento boxes, which I generally love, for the variety and volume. Most were only $10 with a few at $12. I chose the shortribs. All the boxes come with (I think) a bowl of miso soup, crispy salad, a few California rolls, and three delicately fried pot-stickers. Everything was very good. The shortribs were sweet-tasty and tender and the portion was generous. I think I would have preferred a little more flavor complexity than just the sweetness. Most importantly, I had the nicest and most gorgeous waitress, Nicole. She's the one that looks like a ballet star.

    Even with low expectations, this place continues to disappoint me. I think the location is great, if you like the Baldwin Park type of thing. However, the food is comparable to Publix sushi. The maki rolls are small and unappetizing. The bento boxes are mediocre at best. The Korean Chirashi was okay, but for $19, lack of flavor cannot be replaced with a giant fishbowl size servings. Seito cannot compete with the likes of Fuji on Lee Rd and Amura.

  • Sierra A.

    WOW! I am so disappointed with the changes that have occurred recently at seito. The menu has been reduced to practically nothing. They got rid of their only roll that had yellowtail, the Polly, and their full eel rolls like the dragon skin. So now your choices are pretty much shrimp or shrimp? I used to rotate between here and Nagoya in Winter Springs for the great variety of rolls each sushi restaurant offered, looks like I may just have to stick to Nagoya now...please bring back the old menu seito.

    I've been to Seito Sushi in Baldwin Park several times, and have never been disappointed in the food. The atmosphere is upscale, modern and beautiful. While it definitely is the kind of place for a special event kind of meal, you don't have to be dressed up to go there. In other words, it's great food and great atmosphere, without a snobby attitude. My favorite roll, hands-down, is the Torchimaki. It's a roll that includes crawfish, asparagus, whitefish and spicy mayo, but what makes it different is that the top of the roll is torched so it has a grilled flavor. Hard to describe, but incredibly delicious. A server recommended it, and I will be forever grateful to her. I would also recommend the kobe beef and tuna carpaccio appetizers. The kobe isn't always on the menu, but they've always had it when we requested it. Cocktails aren't cheap but they're strong. The service is mostly good, and like another Yelper pointed out, it seems like the busier it is, the better the service. I've also eaten at the Winter Park Village location, and while the food was good, the atmosphere there isn't nearly as nice as Baldwin Park. My other complaint about that location is that they have been known to clean while there are diners present, and nobody wants to smell ammonia and cleaning products while eating. Baldwin Park Seito Sushi is some of the best sushi in Orlando, and definitely one with a great atmosphere.

    This is my fav sushi place in Orlando & today I have discovered their lunch bento boxes. Ive never ever had a bad experience here. Food is always phenomenal & service is always good. Prices seem worth it, to me. I never knew they had a lunch menu, but it is now my new fav lunch spot! I love meals that include variety & that is def what I got in this bento box: veggie tempura (or meats if you prefer) a side of rice, best miso soup ever, a Ginger salad, a California roll & yummy beef dumplings! All for $8. Um, yeahhh! I'm not a vegetarian but their veggie tempura is my fav meal of all. I tried their winterpark location & it doesn't come close to Baldwin. Baldwin: best of the best. Winterpark: worst of the worst. Hard to believe their the same chain. A bonsai martini tops off the experience :)

    This is one of my favorite sushi places and I am especially fond of this location. The décor is more updated than that of Winter Park Village and the restaurant layout is much better as well. My favorites are the insanity and spicy volcano roll. The sushi is always very fresh, flavorful and overall yummy. When I come, I almost always have the sushi but have dined with others that tried the teriyaki and were very happy with their meal.

    This is one of those really weird one's to review. Several reviewers wrote: "Hands down, my favorite spot for sushi in Orlando." -- so, we were keen to try it. No doubt, their vast selection of traditional and special rolls are pretty phenomenal. The fish was fresh and beautifully textured. The Saigon roll was something completely different, and I'd highly recommend it. Overall, we were really very happy with the sushi, and I should preface that by saying, we eat a LOT of sushi in different places, so it's not lightly that I say this is a great place for fresh fish served in some pretty interesting and innovative ways. The sake selection is the best I've seen in a while. We had the unfiltered Snow Maiden from Kyoto, which was great. Even the decor and ambience was nice for a fairly large restaurant. Tastefully done, modern, and loud but still possible to have a conversation. ...but the service, oh my the service! Our server Ayu was extremely over-tasked and as a result it took us 20 minutes just to get her attention to order, never mind actually waiting for the food. Maybe I've lived in Asia too long and actually expect some sense of hospitality, respect and servitude. But not here, everything took forever and was delivered to the table in a jumble. When they had no milk for coffee there was no apology of any sort just a shrug. Am I being too harsh? I don't think so. It could have been a fantastic night with fantastic food, instead we walked away thinking what a shame it was they didn't take the trouble to serve their customers with the same care they serve their fish.

The cake was warm and the ice cream tasted homemade! Still love the Polly Roll! So glad I tried it! I've always been a little weary of sushi rolls that have jalapenos, but it is SO tasty! And I usually get my trusty Ultimate Spicy Tuna Roll, as well. And yummm hot sake!

    Seito is a nice sushi spot in the heard of Baldwin Park. I stopped in today to check out their lunch menu. Given the location and the stylish decor, I was quite surprised that the two of us ate for just over $20. The fish was fresh and tasty. I have seen some reviews that state how busy this place is, but that certainly wasn't the case today. I don't know if it was an off day, or if lunch is usually a slow time for them but it was fairly empty today. I will certainly come back for lunch and I look forward to checking out the dinner menu on a future trip as well.

    Gave it another couple of chances - ordering ahead seems to be the key. The last couple of times I've had lunch here, we've been served quickly and been able to get the check quickly as well. We order in time to have it ready when we arrive, and it works swimmingly. My new favorite is the Tuna 3-way - tuna nigiri, spicy tuna roll, and tuna tataki hit the spot, and all the right tastebuds. I also confess to enjoying the voodoo roll, but I think that's because I miss everything-crawfish from New Orleans menus.

    Holy crap! I looked down into the huge bowl that awaited for me below: a generous mixture of fresh romaine lettuce and salad leaves, luscious morsels of sashimi: tuna, salmon, white octopus, yellowtail and more, orange masago fish eggs sprinkled on top a bed of sushi rice. The Spicy Korean Chirashi bowl had just been whisked to my table and positioned in front of me as if challenging me to defeat it. The bowl was gigantic, a traditionally Japanese dish with a Korean spicy red pepper paste sauce to mix with on the side. The spicy korean chirashi bowl melded two of my favorite cuisines together into a delectable and scrumptious dinner masterpiece. I was glad that my friends chose Seito's Sushi at Baldwin Park for tonight's occasion. for more on this review please check out my blog tastychomps.blogspot.com…

    There aren't very many good restaurants that serves sushi or bento boxes for lunch but I have to say, Seito Sushi def. takes the prize. It's a great place to enjoy great food and be with good friends and family in a beautifully decorated environment. I always meet my mom here for lunch when she comes into town and afterwards we go walk around Baldwin Park. It's awesome! I recommend the lemon semifreddo for dessert; it's to die for!

    After posting my earlier review, I received a really nice note from the owner pointing out that he offers more traditional nigri sushi and sashimi.

    Every time I've been here it's been better than the previous time. I'd say the service is no longer an issue, the signature rolls are pretty good, and I've never had an issue with the freshness of the fish as I have with Shari. The BBQ calamari is pretty good. It's really just normal calamari with sweet BBQ sauce, but I'm not complaining.

    The Voodoo roll rocks here! I don't get out here often, but I ALWAYS want that spicy crawfish as it is quite delicious. I love that this is a homegrown chain and I have generally had great service on every visit. I've been to this one and the one in Winter Park and both had fresh & tasty food and I felt very welcome. The only thing is that the rolls are kind of small -- at least the more reasonably-priced ones. I don't like to spend a lot on lunch, so I generally leave a bit hungry. But presentation is always spot on!

    Yummy-- pretty standard stuff here. All of the usual rolls and they have LOTS of creative house rolls. Atmosphere is really nice. Lunch is a steal-- bento box with chicken teryaki, salad, miso soup, 3 gyoza and 1/2 a california roll for like $8 or $9. Awesome. We also had a tempura california and a soft shell crab roll and they were fabulous. The one thing I was a little disappointed about was the 1/2 california roll in the bento box. The pieces were small and the rice fell right off of them upon 'pick up'. Oh well-- it was still a good deal. I don't have a comparison for the Orlando area since it's the first place we've tried since moving here, but I will definitely go back.

    Was here for business this past week and a new co-worker offered to take the newbies out for sushi. This place is terrific. The food maybe a little slow coming out to you. However the sushi was fresh and they had some really interesting roll combinations. I heartily encourage all to try the Mexican roll. I was surprised how little wasabi they give you. It was fine. I'm just used to the Northeast where they punish you with wasabi helpings. I would surely come here again.

    I ordered the Spicy Volcano Roll & Beauty & Beast roll. They were both flavorful in both presentation and taste. The waiter was friendly and wait time wasn't long. The atmosphere is very trendy and upscale. Price isn't too bad for the amount of food you get and compared to other sushi establishments. This restaurant will appeal to crowds or those looking for a romantic setting as well. They also have outdoor seating for those wanting to enjoy the weather.

    I took a friend here last weekend and it was pretty OK. I have to admit, not my favorite sushi place I have ever been to, but it wasn't bad. We had tempura to start and that was really good.

    Next to be reviewed on the Sushi list...Seito Sushi. Like many sushi places in town, Seito has the classic rolls and dishes with their own spin on things here and there. I've only dined here a few times, each time reluctant to branch outside of my usual order...rainbow and spider rolls with a few orders of salmon and white tuna sashimi. However, I will say that what I have tried was delicious and well done. Among their other dishes, the chicken and vegetable tempura platters are good choices. The batter is nice and crunchy with very little grease and the portions are enormous, enough to take home for seconds and thirds, depending on how hungry you are of course. The atmosphere is very relaxed, with little noise other than people talking around you and soft music playing in the background. This is a good place to go for a date, night on the town or with a group of friend. You can choose to sit inside at a booth, table or at one of the tables outside. I would recommend going for a table because the booths are not the most comfortable I've experienced and the table part does leave much room between you and the back of the seat. My server has always been efficient, friendly and good about keeping everyone happy. Prices are not cheap, which is typical of most sushi restaurants. However, their lunch specials are great and as long as you keep track of what you order the bill shouldn't be too bad. If you go with a group, I recommend that everyone order one or two rolls and share with the whole table that way you can all try something different. Variety adds spice to life. Overall, I don't frequent this place often because it's not close to my house, but it's not a bad place to venture off to every now and again.

    Seito I'd by far one of the best Japanese restaurants I've been to. Definitely the best in Orlando! They have a modern but comfortable atmosphere and the staff impressed me more and more with each visit. I enjoy the modern take on Japanese cuisine and appreciate the fact their menu isn't like every other basic Japanese restaurant. If your a foodie and appreciate authentic food then this is definitely your type of place. I mean they even make their noodles in house! If that doesn't say something about the quality of their food then maybe you should try your local buffet

  • Melly S.

    Seito, what have you done? The service is not as attentive, whether at the table or the bar (where we prefer to sit). Menu changes are great, but favorites have been deleted or 'revamped' with apparently a new Chef and higher prices. Our weekly go-to neighborhood place isn't as comforting anymore - and as one of the nicest atmosphere's in the area, that is disappointing. Maybe once the new place, Osprey Tavern, opens the cordial owner will turn his attention back to Seito and get it back on track. Hats off to Jimmy and Dan, always a pleasure to see behind the bar! The eliminated parking lot in the Village doesn't help the situation, esp on weekends....Baldwin Park really hurt the business owners with that move....so count on searching for street parking.

    Dylan was an incredible server. He was extremely attentive to the table's food allergies! The sushi is delicious and there were some fun spins on basic sushi bar items. The only complaint I have is the cost. Maybe it's because I am used to sushi prices on the West Coast (Oregon), but $65 for lunch (with tip) is a little much regardless of the delish factor.

    I've seen this place grow and I have to say that the food has never suffered! The sweetheart roll is a must for anyone with a sweet tooth and the Alaskan crunch roll is out of this world. Location. Location. Location. Now that you know the food is delish, make sure to get seated outside if its a nice day/night out. This sushi spot is located on a wonderful corner of the Main Street in Baldwin Park and has fabulous outdoor seating. The inside is a treat too since they expanded. The decor is chic and modern and the lighting is perfect for a date night (none of those darn fluorescent lights here!). 10/10 highly recommend!

    I ordered take-out and the food came at the estimated time, and they gave us soup, and sturdy bags for my large order. The staff was friendly and the whole place looked super good. The meat dishes were very yummy and worth it, however everything else (Tempura, Rolls, and Sushi) were average. Nothing was terrible, however everything was average food, yet it was fairly expensive. Granted it is sushi, but for the quality respective to the price, I didn't think it was the best. A fair place. The Wagyu meat was delicious and worth the price, however everything else, I felt, was overpriced.

    Came here on a double date for dinner at 8. After being greeted warmly, a table was set up in just a minute (we had a reservation). The service is nothing to fawn over, but solid nonetheless. The ambiance is wonderful. Not loud or too quiet, with dim lighting. Romantic yet not overly so. The sushi is great. It's fresh and beautifully presented. There are plenty of rolls to choose from, as well as nigiri, sashimi, and chirashi. The Korean Chirashi is fantastic. Everyone enjoyed their sushi rolls as well. It's pricey, but you pay for the experience- and it's worth it.

    I've been coming to Seito Sushi for a while now and every visit has been a good one. My husband and I will come in and enjoy a happy hour drink at the bar. If we come in Monday - Thursday we can enjoy their new Bar Bites menu. They seemed to have tweaked the days (use to be available on Fridays too) and now only allow the special in the bar area. The BBQ Tacos and Stuffed Jalapeños on the Bar Bites menu were delicious. If I'm not sitting at the bar I'm usually with a large group enjoying a meal in the back of the restaurant. The times I've gone with a group we had a fun time enjoying a delicious meal. Service was wonderful too and very attentive while dining with a large table Seito Sushi shows that if you offer quality food in an inviting atmosphere along with good service you're bound to succeed. Whenever I walk past the restaurant the tables are filled with folks enjoying their meal. In a neighborhood that could use more dining, I'm thankful that Seito Sushi offers up a quality choice.

    AMAZING Sushi - every time I go I am always impressed by the service, hospitality and the food. The drinks are phenomenal, My personal favorite is the strawberry basil martini. For example, I was eating at lunch with a friend out of town and we got caught up in conversation and they actually close in the afternoon and reopen for dinner, they waiter came by and mentioned last call so we both ordered another drink but he told us no rush as all and we closed out tabs. Another waitress came out and asked if we needed anything else and we jokingly stated another drink but we knew the bar had closed and she said "No problem, let me just ask if thats ok?" They ended up serving us another drink even after the bar had closed now THAT is TRUE SERVICE. Def my favorite sushi place in orlando and I always take my parents when they're in town!

    Seito Sushi Baldwin Park is always at the top of my list of places to go to enjoy a wonderful meal, well crafted beverage and attentive service. The chic and streamlined feel of the interior never fails to make an impression and switch your gears from regular life to a nice evening as you walk through the door and absorb the atmosphere. While I continue to enjoy lunches, dinners and beverages here, I'll focus on their new happy hour offerings for this review. A group of us met for drinks and they happily accommodated our large party (15) and had us seated and taking orders from our wonderful server, Dani. Bryan M said it well "Some servers get overwhelmed with a larger group and some just know how to run the show". Dani handled all of 15 of us efficiently and with a friendly manner, while being attentive and keeping the beverages flowing, the food paced, dishes cleared and the checks appropriately tallied. This was no small feat with our group, who was ordering non stop. Per the usual, the food and beverages were wonderful. The new bar bites menu (pic) features 5 items for $6 which are offered Monday-Friday from 5-7pm. Our group sampled all of them, they were outstanding. I wish I could point to a favorite, but all of the items were proclaimed delicious. The Tuna Crunch roll had a great portion of ahi and wonderful flavors, numerous were ordered. The Chicken Satay was a nice portion and the stuffed Jalapeno was a fun spin on a popper, offering a wedge of jalapeno topped with a spicy krab, bacon and cream cheese filling. Beverages ordered varied from beers, to specialty martinis and sake. Whether you enjoy a mixed drink or a straight up martini, Seito Baldwin Park can mix a beverage to appeal to your palate. Our group lingered over uni, garlic lime edamame, various dumplings and rolls with our beverages and had a wonderful time. Seito offers a variety of fully cooked items and raw items on both the new Bar bites menu and their regular menu.

    It's been awhile since I've come back here, they changed their lunch menu. It went from 4 or 5 pgs to 2. Half one side is just drinks. No bento boxes. The best thing there was their bento deals and the presentation/taste of their fried ice cream. Now, I know why it wasn't busy like it usually is. Bento deals were a huge draw at lunch time.

    Seito used to be 5 out of 5 stars. Best in town. Used to be. The new chef has failed to maintain the standard Seito has always been known for. Nothing tastes as good as it used to and it's a shame. Seito has always been my favorite in town, but that's changed thanks to the past few times I've been there.

    Seito Sushi never fails to provide excellent service and food. They always do a great job handling big parties and the food is absolutely delicious! I've celebrated countless birthdays here and recommend others to go here when indecisive about where to eat. I recommend ordering one of the Sushi combinations, they give you a wide selection (ranging from tuna, salmon, scallop, uni, ikura.) Portions are very generous and the rice has a firm but crumbly texture. Use the soy sauce provided with your sushi/sashimi combo. Super fresh fish!!! Not only fresh, but beautifully presented. Seito does a great job timing out when Sushi and Kitchen food comes out as well (together), which makes this one of my ideal places to eat at with big groups. You can't go wrong with any of the items on their menu. I personally would order Sushi and Sashimi to enjoy the freshness, but they have an array of Rolls here as well. Few favorite: Seito Roll and Beauty and the Beast Roll. The Nabeyaki udon noodle could have been a bit more traditional (using a clear Dashistock rather then using a Miso base), but noodles are probably not their speciality so ..... yeah. Seito never fails to deliver on service, atmosphere and food quality.

    I've always loved seito sushi! However their decision to get rid of the Bento Box at lunch is most unfortunate. All of us who dine at Seito are sad and disappointed. The bento box is the perfect lunch and "the deal" is nothing close. The most frustrating thing is the explanation the customers are getting is that it is "too difficult" to make all the different portions for the bento box. It's been successful for years. There is a simple solution - "bring back the bento box!" Just do it- bring back the Bento box!!!

    The Tonkotsu ramen on the new, sustainable, local and "farm-fresh" lunch menu is the best I have had. The pork is tender and flavorful. You can instinctively taste how fresh it is. The soy sauce egg is flavorful and perfectly cooked with a soft, runny yolk. The broth has several layers of depth to it, and the hand-pulled noodles are just firm enough. Will go back for this meal again and again.

    Have been here twice in the past couple of weeks. Consistently good sushi and excellent ambiance for a date night or Girls' Night. Love sitting at the sushi bar, but the people-watching on Broad Street also makes for a good dinner show. I always get their sashimi... nice and fresh. For those of you who love the presentation of a roll, but prefer to avoid excess rice, consider the Seito Roll, which has lots of fresh fish and is wrapped in cucumber. For a really hearty roll, try the Torchamaki Roll. It has spicy crawfish, white fish and asparagus. And it's seared with a torch, giving it a smoky flavor. Definitely recommended if you're looking for fresh sushi served in a chic, modern setting.

  • Yeselie R.

    The sushi is great here and we always went for lunch (bento box). They completely overhauled their lunch menu and now the bento box is not completely gone. The sushi is still really good so I would recommend visiting but it is a bummer that they got rid of that...

  • David H.

    Seito Sushi has a very trendy ambiance. I felt underdressed with my khaki shorts and v-neck shirt. Maybe that's why the hostess put us in the back corner by the WC (water closet for those that don't know...) letters. I liked the wine cellar by the bar. We had three rolls: The Distinguished Gentleman I like the surf n turf concept of the roll, but it honestly just didn't really stand out to me. Ultimate Spicy Tuna This was the highlight of the three rolls we had. A spicy tuna roll... wrapped in MORE tuna... with sesame oil and kobachi sauce. Yum! Soft Shell Crab Roll Your typical soft shell crab/spider roll. I think the crab was fried for too long for our roll. We also had various sashimi and some ikura and uni nigiri. The uni was fresh and had a nice texture to it. Sweet and nutty taste.. I enjoyed it. One point I can't forget is that Seito Sushi has Japanese Craft Beer... always a plus. My gf had an Echigo Red Ale and I had a Coedo Shiro (Hefeweizen) Service was nice and attentive. I think we may have ordered a couple of wrong rolls for our first visit. But I think Seito Sushi does a good job executing their food. I would come back to try some of the entrees and some other rolls.

    I really liked this place. The decor was really nice and the food was really good. I had my heart set on getting the volcano roll but they no longer had it on the menu :(. Why?!?! I ordered the dumplings and had a shrimp tempura and spicy tuna roll and it was delish. I just thought it was a bit pricey so I'm not sure that I would go back since there are other places that are just as good and costs a lot less. By the way, the strawberry basil cocktail was really good.

    Previously an excellent menu now a new one. I have no problem with change except they did not listen to their customers and dropped off several of the important dishes. Although there are many changes that are for the better, removing the bento boxes from the lunch menu will prove to be a mistake. Changing from a leather covered menu to a single paper menu, a mistake. Removing desserts like the creme brulee loved by everyone not good. Seito should be all about the best sushi, quality grade and presentation. It seems like it is all about cutting cost without changing prices. I don't think this strategy will work. A restaurant that doesn't listen to its customers My personal favorite and what I order every time the moriawase sashimi deluxe: off of the menu. I used to go once a month and was willing to pay $38 for excellent sushi. What we have is a rebirth into mediocre. What we want is the return of the signature dishes. Until then kabuki sushi and firefly are much better.

    Seito Sushi is a pretty decent place in Orlando. We had sashimi and it was amazing! The volcano rolls were good. Only thing is that it was a pretty small dish in a huge plate. The waiting staff was very helpful and very kind. They would come every so often and ask if we needed anything, and would make sure our drinks were full each time they came around. The environment was also very great along with the atmosphere. Music was on point and gave a family friendly atmosphere, but could also be a good place to hang out with friends or coworkers. I highly recommend this place if you are planning to eat Japanese food in Orlando.

  • Alysha F.

    This USED to be my favorite sushi spot, we live two blocks away and come here all the time. But, busy with holidays and a new year...we haven't been in about two months and after tonight I don't know if we will ever come back. We were seated right away, but it took 15 minutes for a server to even come to our table and greet us, and that happened only after I asked two different servers for help. It took another 45 minutes to actually receive our food. We only ordered three sushi rolls, people who were seated 20 minutes after we were had their food before we did. It was pretty ridiculous. Also, they completely changed the menu but kept the same names. If you go there expecting that classic, delicious volcano roll, DONT Get your hopes up. It's completely different now. Granted, it's still good, but it's NOT a volcano roll. Just a heads up if, like us, you're so used to eating here that you just order your favorites. Sucks how one terrible experience can make you lose all respect for one of your favorite places. Guess we will just head over to Sushi Lola's or Jade Bistro from now on.

    The decor and atmosphere are great at seito. And now that I'm done with the positives let's get to the review. We came for a weekend lunch at seito, hoping to find a great restaurant to frequent because we just got an apartment in the area. We were handed menus with 8 sushi rolls, 3 bowls of ramen, 3 rice bowls, and some appetizers and salads. Not to be discouraged, we ordered a dish from each section. I had the gyu ramen, which was advertised to have a pho broth, brisket, and ramen noodles. The dish came out looking like it was made with a beef boulion cube and machrurian ramen noodles ( and tasted like it too). The brisket was 2 slabs of overcooked beef that looked like they belonged in a can of alpo. My girlfriend got a chicken rice bowl with kimchee and a "coddled" egg. The rice was totally bland and kimchee tasted like it was made with tomato paste. The egg was an embarrassing combination of over done yolk and somehow raw white. The sushi roll had decent fish, but came with a pre prepared wasabi and soy mixture, no extra amount of either. I really don't understand the glowing reviews of this place because almost every dish we experienced left us shaking our heads at how much better it could have been, and how cheap the ingredients seemed to be. I will come back to try the dinner menu, when they actually serve sushi instead of telling you what you should want.

I loved it and will definitely be eating here again.

    Sorry to say but the last few times I've been here after my last semi-bad review? The place seems to be getting worse. I used to count on them, at the least, having great quality and very fresh fish. This was not the case this time. I can tell when the sashimi is old and has been frozen as opposed to when it's really fresh. I ordered a salad. Great that they brought back the ginger dressing, but my salad was soaked in it. I couldn't eat all of it because it was so drenched. I also ordered mostly sashimi. I got some Toro that tasted like it was about to turn and it didn't seem like good quality, melt-in-your-mouth toro, the way it should be. I also ordered hamachi sashimi that didn't taste fresh either. The ikura was pretty good. The scallop was good. Also got a salmon hand roll that was fresh. The Seito roll didn't taste very good, I think because they no longer use the escolar and it makes a difference. Anyway... For a mediocre meal this cost me $100 with the tip. I did order 1 glass of wine and 1 cocktail, but $100 for one person is pretty outrageous unless the food is top notch. Every time lately that o come here I say I won't go back, but I inevitably do because of the location. I will think long and hard before I blow my money here again. The new chef is not living up to whatever the old chef did. There's a reason this place is now suddenly dead all of the time when it used to be packed. Get a clue, owners... Fire the chef.

    This is definitely my favorite sushi place in Orlando. The sweetheart roll is divine. I would eat it every day if I could. The Popeye and distinguished gentlemen are excellent as well. The service is just alright. Sitting at the sushi bar is fun as you get to see the chefs at work. Kind of pricey but definitely worth it. Lunch menu is very reasonable. Overall I love this place.

    Seito can be considered upscale compared to other sushi restaurants. You don't have to get dressed up to come here, but you'll probably be surrounded by people in business attire, coming in after work. Otherwise, you or a family will fit in walking right off the street. Everything is pretty much perfect here, from the food to the service. Because of that, I feel you can end up paying a couple dollars more than other sushi places. Although, if you come for happy hour, you can get great deals on martini's, sake and wine. They had a happy hour food menu, but I think it was discontinued. I wasn't too happy with that selection anyway, as it was mostly fried or too spicy for me. Some of my favorite items are the seaweed salad and miso soup. For entrees, the Bi Mim Bop bowl (on the lunch menu). For rolls, I'll opt for their vegie rolls or a mild fish. I'm allergic to crab/lobster, so I have to stay away from those. I really need to try their appetizers, entrees and other plates more. I guess most people go to sushi places for their rolls, and I tend to eat the same items I mentioned above. They really have a nice variety of non-rolls available, to try and experiment with. The only reason I knocked off 1 star is I feel the price of items are more than other sushi places, such as I can get almost the same Bi Mim Bop at Sushi Lola's in Audobon park right down the street for a couple dollars cheaper.

    I love Seito for their bento box lunches and beef bulgogi entree. I have not lived in Orlando for about a year and my mouth still waters whenever I think about Seito. Pair the beef bulgogi with a glass of Malbec and a side of asparagus, and I promise your taste buds will thank you! I absolutely love sushi, so it is strange that I never order it at Seito. I have not been wowed by it, the few times I have had it there, so I stick to the bulgogi. The Baldwin park location is especially well decorated and has a fun and somewhat posh environment. The staff are warm and attentive and the wait is usually manageable. The Dr. Philips location is also nice, but doesn't have the fabulous neighborhood feel of Baldwin Park. This is at the top of my list of places I need to visit when I am back in The City Beautiful!

    UPDATE!!! So i was extremely honored to receive an email from the owner of this swanky place recently, stating they were inspired by my review to upgrade and update their Volcano Roll. I was invited over to taste it and I have to say GREAT Improvement and I was impressed :) The new Volcano Roll really hits the spot! This place does not fail with their fresh ingredients and innovative rolls. You can taste the excellence on the plate. Still not yoru typical roll or even volcano roll - but wow it was good. Deeeelicious and a MUST TRY for all your Seito Sushi lovers and even newbies!! I highly recomment this new roll. On my second visit I also tried the "Distinguished Gentlemen".. this is a good hearty roll with lots of meat! none of the fluff of cream cheese, tempura or avocado. Just straight up heartiness! If your into that sort of roll... its definately for you. For me... ill stick with my new love for their Volcano Roll and of course the Lobster Crunch :)

  • Dee B.

    So after my initial visit, I received an email from the Owner inviting me to return and try the updated Volcano Roll. Of course, I accepted...I was extremely impressed by his offer. I must say, they definitely got it right! That was an excellent Volcano roll, nothing like it once was. Worth ordering again the next time we go! While there, we also ordered two more rolls (the Lobster roll like the 1st time and the Distinguished Gentlemen). The Distinguished Gentlemen, which was described correctly on the menu as a meaty roll--a little too hearty for me though. Ate a few pieces but I stuck to my other rolls. The food and ambience to this restaurant is great. And with the Customer Service experience that extended beyond my visit (with the owner reaching out) was excellent!!! I'm recommending this place to all my friends/co-workers.

    This is a local favorite - I have been several times and never been disappointed by the service or quality of food - the torchamaki roll is my favorite. The location is great, the decor and ambiance is nice, the service is prompt, professional and proper, and the food is fresh, presented nicely and tastes really good. On top, the pricing isn't over the top. This place has got it right

    Kampai! Seito Susho has an awesome happy hour, with 2-for-1 beer, house wine, and sake. This is a prime location in Baldwin Park, and you can sit outside and people-watch, or even bring your puppy to dinner. Inside, they have a sushi bar with rows of fresh fish where the chefs prepare your food right in front of you. There's also a bar toward the back of the restaurant if you're just in the mood to lounge around. I've always had excellent service here, so definitely no complaints in that regard. One of the problems I have with Seito is that the it doesn't feel quite as authentic as some other sushi restaurants I've been to. Sadly, it's a more modern and American version. I've been fortunate to have traveled to Japan, and I just want a tiny bit more of the culture and authenticity. The price is average for sushi, so expect to spend $10-15 on a specialty roll. Just make sure you go before 7:00 to take advantage of happy hour!

    The sushi was phenomenal but the server was terrible ! However, the bartender Dan who made us drinks while we waited, was very friendly and his drinks were great. The sushi rice was unlike any of the dozen different places' I've had in Orlando; I don't know what the secret is but whatever it is, it's delicious! If I come back, I'd rather sit at the bar rather than risk the slow, inattentive, unfriendly service at a table.

    This place is so overrated its crazy, not to offend anyone but if you think this is good sushi, you might want to venture out of Baldwin Park more. The service is slow and the food is fishy and very small rolls. I dont suggest this place at all to anyone.

    I went to get some sushi with six of my friends. We had made reservations earlier in the day, and good thing we did! We met up at 8PM and it was packed, on a Wednesday night. The decor in the restaurant was classy. A huge wine rack was the centerpiece of place. Lights were dimmed enough where it's a relaxing atmosphere. It would be a nice place for a romantic date, or just a sushi get together with friends. I had an awesome experience at Seito's. Service was wonderful- the waitress was very friendly. The rolls were nicely presented and tasted great. Seito's had plenty of signature rolls on their menu, all of them sounded delicious. Decent prices for what you're getting too! I had the Philly and Volcano roll. Mmm! Smaller rolls than the signature ones, but still filling for me. Definitely would go again, I loved it!

    My favorite Japanese place. I always get the spicy tuba kobachi and ask for a side of sushi rice to eat it with. I also add masago and ask for extra kobachi sauce and sesame oil to dip it in. My brother and grandpa like cooked rolls so always get the TNT Crunch Roll. My mother and grandmother love the Ichiban roll. They also get the different colored raw fish eggs nigiri style. The hijiki salad is yummy too. They make a great creme brûlée here. Great customer service. I've never had a bad experience.

    I'm giving Seito 4 stars because of our previous visits to this Baldwin Park sushidello. We had dinner Monday evening at Seito with a couple friends who'd never been there before. We'd bragged about how good the food was and how pretty the restaurant was. After visiting Seito maybe 10 times I'd say we've had good service 6 out of those 10 times (that's why I gave them 4 stars and not 2 or 3). Nothing really bad, but we've encountered servers who seemed to just not be with it and a little ditzy. Their manager usually steps in and gets things going again, but it's uncomfortable watching one of the servers have that kind of night. On Monday, we started off with a guy as a server... he took our drink orders while we were waiting for our two dining companions to arrive. Once they were seated he took their drink orders... we still hadn't been given the drinks we ordered 10 minutes ago. Finally... he brings our drinks and everybody has something to quench their thirst. Then... perky female waiter comes over and announces I'm ready to take your order. Hmm.... where'd the dude go? No explanation, but we were happy to order. Food came out quickly by 3 or 4 different people and no sign of our perky female. She eventually came back to check on us and was gone again. Food was good and our friends enjoyed dinner, but we all felt like we were a bit of an inconvenience to the service staff. The restaurant wasn't particularly busy and there were several open tables around. We live close by and like visiting Seito, but we'd really appreciate more consistent service.

    My family and I make a visit here at least once a month, it is by far our favorite Asian fusion restaurant. They have a very diverse menu which works well if you're with someone who doesn't have a palate for raw fish. Their food is predominantly Korean and Japanese. The bulgogi beef is exquisite if you're not a sushi lover. The sushi is always so fresh, I've never had bad sushi here. The sunrise and beauty and the beast roll are my two favorites. The atmosphere is great; very modern and chic with the background music to match. Service is also great. No complaints about this place. It is on the pricier side for sushi but is worth it when you take into account the service/location/environment.

    One of our favorite sushi places in Orlando. The ambiance is very inviting and comfortable. The food is outstanding. We've been here many times, mostly for the sushi. Our favorite are the Ichiban, which has a fresh orange flavored sauce that nicely complements the roll, and the Popeye, which has a nice kick to it. The miso soup and ginger salad are standard fare - solid, tasty items. Our son had the Yakisoba - he loved it. It came in a huge bowl and he couldn't finish it all. This is a great restaurant and wonderfully enjoyable dining experience. Recommend to anyone looking for a fresh menu, with an incredibly palatable selection of sushi rolls.

    Gorgeous restaurant. It has an outside patio where dogs are allowed, so this is perfect as an awesome dog's park is just across the lake from this place. Service was great. I think our server's name was Nathan, he was very sweet. As for food, it was not shockingly good, but presentation was beautiful.

    Fresh sushi and a modern setting. Beautiful ambiance. Great place to take out of towners. We eat here at least twice a week. Lunch menu is definitely better than the dinner menu in terms of combos. A huge plus - DOG FRIENDLY in their outdoor patio!

    By far the best sushi in Orlando! Very nice ambiance, with a decent wine selection. Delicious speciality rolls, my favorite is the sunset roll. Pretty restaurant in a great location!

    This is the best sushi place in Orlando! Love the atmosphere at this location and the sushi is simply delightful! I have tried a few of their rolls on my last visit (I love variety!) My sweetheart (not the roll) and I had a nice date here last Friday and shared a bottle of their house pinot noir and the Alaskan Crunch Roll, Corona Roll, and the Sweetheart Roll! The Sweetheart Roll has so many wonderful flavors(mostly sweet hence the name!) It is filled with coconut shrimp, mango, and cream cheese, with snow crab salad and the roll sits on top of an apricot glaze that just brings this masterpiece together! The Corona Roll is very different and on the spicier side! It doesn't say on the menu, but this roll had jalapenos on top of it! The roll came together very nicely as the cajun seasoned grilled shrimp inside was hugged together by a tempura asparagus and cucumber topped with snow crab, pico de gallo, lime, and cilantro. Very unique and sounds like a weird combination for sushi but I assure you it is delicious! One of my favorites, in fact! The Alaskan Crunch is great for smoked salmon fans! It had snow crab salad stuffed inside with tempura flakes which gave it nice texture and crunch! It was topped with smoked salmon and drizzled lightly with eel sauce. I loved this roll! Simple and delicious! I hate when places over-do it with the eel sauce and their whole sushi menu ends up tasting the same: Eel sauce'd and spicy mayo'd up. Seito is definitely not one to fall into that category! They really do specialize in fresh fish and quality ingredients with unique and tasty combinations which I haven't found anywhere else. I recommend trying something new every time you come here! You'll be surprised at what your next favorite sushi roll might be!

    Seito Sushi is a good sushi place that just seems to be missing something that would make it truly great. This particular location in the Baldwin Park area really benefits from the overall vibe of the neighborhood. The atmosphere is very relaxed but still a bit upscale and the service is friendly and prompt. The sushi itself is good, but I just wasn't as blown away by it as I thought I would be. They had a decent selection of rolls and none are terrible, but I couldn't shake the feeling that I have had better at better prices even here in Orlando. So while I did think the restaurant was fine overall, I can't quite give it 5 stars. The tone of this review comes off worse than my experience was, as I did enjoy my night at the restaurant and would certainly go back.

    Orlando has the best sushi compared to south Florida. This place was really good. Ordered TNT, beauty and the beast, and crunch roll. Also tasted kimchi fritters (so good!). Thank you to our friend who knew one of the sushi chef! 2 stars: Our table did have to find our own plates and silverware. It wasn't offered. It didn't seem that busy but our table was about 16 ppl. But still no excuse to have us self serve.

    The sushi is decent, but a little pricey imo. We don't have really great sushi options in Orlando, but Seito is one of your best bets. Some locations are better than others. I happen to think the celebration and baldwin park locations are best.

    We recently moved in to Baldwin Park & have increased our dining frequency here. Hands-down this is some of the freshest / best sushi in town! The sushi chef continues to put together great tastes and fabulous presentations! Service has been above average every time we've been in & we've not had a bad item yet! Full liquor bar along w/ a nice variety of sake for your enjoyment. This is on par w/ Amura or Bonsai sushi!! They've also got some Korean items on the menu starting w/ cabbage kimchi and they've also got Bulgogi which is delish!! The Lava sushi has baked scallops on top of a Cali roll which is to die for ... And to add a little personal touch they've created their own house hot sauce in lieu of siracha ... You gotta try this place!!

    A cozy, inviting atmosphere (a little Manhattan without all the hustle and bustle), interesting drink list (and some really nice beers and wines too!), excellent food, and easy to get to Baldwin Park. What more could you want? I had ad drink called the Remedy which was quite tasty and smooth. I treated myself to the Chilean Sea Bass that was cooked perfectly with tasty edamame. My friend had a variety of sushi and they all devoured their dinners. They cook great care with presentation of all the dishes and I admit I wanted to try them all. Since I am not familiar with sushi for the most part, I opted to skip it. That was one thing I really liked---someone who doesn't care for sushi or doesn't know much about it can have a tasty, innovative entree. I was invited here for a birthday party and I was a tad worried but I need not have been. Our server was very helpful with the menu. I will return here again and give the sushi a try.

    There were a lot of things wrong at this dinner. I ordered the nigiri and the rice kept falling apart and I couldn't get it all the way to my mouth with out it falling all over the place. The fish was either too fishy, or too sinewy or both. My husband got 2 rolls that left him with indigestion. I think it was one of the worst sushi I've had in quiet some time. On the positive side, it has a nice ambiance, good waitstaff, and decent miso soup.

    Senior sushi we love your food but really wish you'd bring back that happy hour special with five dollar dirty Martini's! But seriously, Jason runs a fine restaurant with superb staff, food and beverage. Seito is a favorite in our dining routine! Everything is delicious and we have discerning palettes. New guests, you won't regret this choice!! -east coast floats - Orlando

    We came here on a Saturday night after shopping all day. We were looking for a good sushi restaurant and Yelp guided us to Seito. I made a reservation via Yelp and we only had to wait about 10 min after arriving. I noticed others without reservations had to wait 35 min or more. We ordered the Rainbow roll, Spicy Tuna, Ichiban, Shrimp Tempura and the Philly roll. All of the rolls were pretty good. They all tasted very fresh. The Rainbow used krab salad instead of crab meat for the filling which was a little disappointing. Other than that we enjoyed the rolls and we would definitely come back next time we're in Orlando. They have several specialty rolls that sounded delicious. Seito is a trendy restaurant and has a nice bar area as well.

  • Sarah D.

    Me and my hubby didn't know where to go for sushi, so we looked up this restaurant. Upon arriving the atmosphere was wonderful and the drinks were great. However when we ordered the sushi it was falling apart in our chopsticks, and the quality of the fish was below par. We did order three different sushi rolls & for an app, the tuna kobachi. The original price of the Tuna kobachi was $15... they charged us $4.00 to add avocado which was about a quarter of an avocado. That is just absolutely ridiculous! I have been many places in the world and even locally to try great sushi restaurants.. This was by far one of the worst experiences I've had. If you want to go for a good drink, that would be my only advice. There is no need to eat sushi at this establishment.

    RAMEN. They've been serving ramen at lunch for quite some time now, and that ramen has finally graduated to the dinner menu. And I've been there twice this week for it (no shame...) You can choose from a light, traditional shoyu ramen with egg and chicken thigh, or the creamy pork goodness of the tonkotsu ramen with pork belly chashu, a to-die-for Lake Meadow Naturals soft boiled egg and a little ginger. You can't go wrong with either so really it depends on whether you're in the mood for a light or rich soup. I've settled on the tonkotsu as my go-to. At $14, it is a little pricier than my other fav ramen in town, to be expected from a Baldwin Park location. They're also doing a izakaya menu on weekends now, with small-plate selections like shrimp on soy bean grits, herbed sashimi, and pork/crab spring rolls. We tried these and a triple tail roll on our last visit - all very fresh and good, but that ramen's stolen my heart.

  • Bill G.

    My first two visits to Seito (Baldwin Park location) have been very good experiences. Since my wife and I are fans of ramen, and she had recently informed me that Seito started offering ramen dishes, we had to go check it out. We each got one of their dishes - the Shoyu Ramen (chicken-based, with roasted chicken stock) and the Tonkotsu Ramen (a pork broth, with pork belly and a Lake Meadow pullet egg). I liked both dishes a lot, but the Tonkotsu is the big standout here. That delicious egg they put in it is the icing on the cake, but I might consider it an essential. In any case, you have to try this ramen. The second time we ate there, I gave the sushi a try. I tried the triple tail (tuna, yellow-tail, salmon, avocado, cucumber, wasabi soy, seaweed) with an order of the house hot sake. The sushi was very good and I must return to try some of the others. Outside seating available, so bring the dog if you like.

    Unique, flavorful and innovative rolls on the 'changes everyday' menu. We ordered 4 of the rolls and the BBQ edamame. The edamame was different and interesting although it proved to me that I'm a traditionalist when it comes to edamame and prefer to stick with sea salt. The rolls were all very different and delicious! Would definitely visit again.

  • Kaley C.

    I love Seito. I think they truly have the best sushi rolls in the Orlando area. They are more expensive than most, but not overly pricey. I have had many of the rolls on the menu and all of them are different, inventive, and delicious. The sweetheart roll is one of my favorites and is a must if the table is getting a handful of rolls to split. Their Osaka pressed rolls are incredible and unlike anything I've had before. They used to have one Osaka pressed roll on the menu, but now the flavor changes on a weekly basis. I have mixed feelings since I could come on a week with a flavor I'm not into, but it does force me to try something different almost every time. Their seaweed salad is a great starter to any meal. They also have excellent kimchi fritters. If sushi isn't your thing, they also do pretty amazing things with panko and chicken. They have nice happy hour specials on wine and martinis. The only reason I cannot give Seito a 5 star rating is because their service is so sporadic, you never know what you will get. Sometimes we have good service, but more often than not (especially recently) service is slow and poor. Hopefully Seito management can turn this around because even though their sushi is good, poor service will turn people away every time.

    Must try if you like fresh sushi! My gals and I tried this place during Orlando's Bite 30. Everything from their salads, sushis, and entrees were so good! I wouldn't eat here daily just because price wise is a bit expensive but definitely recommended for a nice occasion. Like most areas in Baldwin Park, parking can be difficult. It's mainly street parking or a parking lot area and required a walk to the location - nothing too far though. The atmosphere is business casual and the environment is more for mature people rather than younger crowds. They have a wide variety of drinks and wine options too. Service is upscale and really knowledgable of the menu. If you don't know what to order, the waiters are good at recommending options.

  • Jessica B.

    Seito used to be my #1 to-go-to place for sushi and cooked meals as well. Now that they have changed the chef and menu, it's only OK. Many of my family and friends favorite dishes are gone and even the sushi doesn't have as much flavor as it once did. It is clean and the service is always good, but we've given it 3 tries since the change and have been disappointed each and every time.

    Another Baldwin Park excellent restaurant for cocktail hour and hors d'oeuvres. The sushi is excellent the management is way above average and they attend to every one of your needs. They are more than willing to make sure that you have a great meal and very accommodating if you have a problem. Love going there for happy hour guess that makes me a happy hour freak as you get great values during happy hour.

    In being SUPER partial. They were one of the hosting events during the Baldwin Sip event. They had egg rolls and Saki. I tried the Saki and would only suggest it if you have a designated driver and don't have plans the next day. Now that egg roll...I would slap someone for that egg roll. It was so good. We didn't go in but it looked like and is close to the water. Would absolutely go again!!

  • Celine C.

    I came here for a quick lunch with a friend because I heard they now serve tonkotsu ramen. I was a little hesitant when I saw that a bowl of ramen costs $12! I ordered it anyway because I really like Japanese ramen and want to see if Seito makes it right. The ramen came in a tall bowl and the presentation was very nice. You can see pieces of ginger, bamboo shoots, seaweeds, the pork and the eggs right from the top. Now comes the taste, the broth doesn't have a strong pork bone taste. And to more disappointment, I don't even know what kind of ramen noodles they were using. The noodles had a flour-y taste. Then the pork was rough and dry. It was pulled pork as well. I think Japanese ramen should have a piece of tender pork meat in it... not dry and rough pulled pork. I found it strange. Unfortunately, the only things I liked was the egg. The decor inside is very nice and modern. It looks very fancy and clean. I might come back to try their other food selections, but I don't think I will try their ramen again.

    At one point, I would have rated this place a 5 star, but I am going to lower that due to several reasons. The main reason is due to the abrupt, dramatic change to their menu! The old menu was AMAZING, but the new menu not so much. A lot of the old items are gone, especially the sushi rolls! The sushi rolls they have are good, but are too over priced! $15 for some rolls, yikes!! The taste in some of rolls have change a little, but if you are new patron then you wouldn't notice the difference. The original dessert menu has been completely changed. The desserts they had prior were the best, but the new ones not so much. Please bring the original menu back! It's good idea to introduce new items, but don't change the entire bill of fare! The ambiance is nice with a slick decor. The waitstaff that I had was great, well trained, knowledgable, professional and polite! The hostesses were all very polite and always had smile on their face! They complemented the establishment very well! The bar area was ok and bartenders were not bad. I never had any issues getting my drinks. One time I was with a couple of people and my food never came out in a timely fashion. Everyone else I was with had gotten their good, but I had to wait an additional 10 min. There was some kind of mixup...mistakes happen and an acknowledgement or an apology would have been appropriate at the time. Other than that it is cool place to take a date to or have a drink...and hopefully they will bring back the original menu!

    If you have not been here in awhile--things have changed. For the better or worse depends on how willing you are to move away from your old favorites and try something new. The menu is smaller, with a lot of old favorites including Chicken Yakisoba, some of the sweeter cocktails, and a few other things taken off the menu. The menu went from a few long pages in a leather cover to a double sided paper. Our server explained that the chef is seeking to focus more on local and seasonal products, so that the menu stays fresh. Higher end ingredients such as duck and oxtail have been added to the menu. On this visit we tried the new Sriracha Edamame which threw me off at first with its kick but after a few pods we were loving it. Think hot wing flavor but with house made sriracha. We also had the always wonderful Miso Soup and some fried pork Gyoza. The Gyoza are small but have great flavor. Way better than your usual takeout gyoza that tends to be greasy and too doughy. For our meal we split 3 rolls: Sweetheart, Ichiban, and TNT Crunch. Sweetheart is my favorite of them all. No one does a sweet sushi roll quite like it. I love the crunch of the coconut shrimp and the mango sauce. TNT Crunch has a mild flavor but comes with a spicy sauce on the side and tempura flakes. Desert is different too, now. They offer teas, a few cake or bread based deserts, most of which come with a house made ice cream or sorbet. I was sad to see the Creme Brulee off the menu because their's is one of the best I have ever had! Perfectly crisp on top with a light sweet custard. Oh well. We didn't try any of the new deserts but one that sounded sort of like a bread pudding was a contended. We will be back again and again for our favorite sushi, and hope to try the Oxtail Yakisoba next time.

    I highly recommend Seito Sushi! The sushi always tastes fresh and they have a variety of combinations that you can't find at other sushi restaurants. The restaurant has a great ambience that translates well from a trendy happy hour spot to a date night out. It's conveniently located in Baldwin Park and many neighborhood residents can walk to their location. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone in the area.

    Seito NEEDS to open up a spot down in Miami. It would be a huge hit! I'm amazed by how fresh and how perfectly they executed every dish. Granted I have only been here twice. The first time was in 2013 and I instantly fell in love. Came back to Orlando this past weekend and I knew it was a must to stop by here again. Best decision I ever made. Better than that was the fact that we arrived 15 minutes before happy hour ended. This is seriously the best happy hour I have ever seen. Everything I wanted to eat was luckily included in the happy hour menu. I ordered the BBQ calamari, the sweetheart roll, the shrimp tempura roll, and hot sake. My total was $23. Just when you think it can't get better than that, you taste the food and you just wanna jump for joy and probably order 5 more rolls. I would have but I knew I couldn't handle it. The sweetheart roll was my favorite although they were both delicious. I was hesitant about the BBQ calamari but I love calamari so much I figured I had to try it, and I'm so glad I did. It was so delicious. The hot sake was yummy and now a few days later I find myself daydreaming of Seito and planning my next Orlando trip. I love this place.

    I went to Sieto after it was recommended to me as the best sushi in Orlando by one of my close friends. I was skeptical because I never thought I would like sushi but I later found out I was wrong and I have eaten sushi ever since. I finally found the opportunity to go when I meet a girl that loved sushi. I thought "what a perfect first date opportunity to get sushi at Sieto." I picked my date up and drove down to Baldwin Park. When given the choice between outside and in we went with the outside table since it was a beautiful Florida day and the area around the restaurant is clean and surrounded by small shops. Shortly after being seated and looking over the drink menu our waiter, Dylan, came over to introduce himself. We decided to go with wine to drink. She knew what she wanted and order her wine righ away. Now it was my turn and I was struggling to decide so he offered several choices on which wine I would like and why. After getting our drinks and talking for a little while Dylan came over to ask if we were ready to order. I told him I haven't had a lot of sushi so I was unsure of what to get since the menu had so many options of sushi rolls. Once again she was the expert and I was unsure of what to get. He said "no problem." And offered a few suggestions. I went with the spicy tuna roll and loved it. My date asked about a few different rolls and right away he knew what the ingredients were. We got our food and loved it. We each had another glass of wine and left satisfied. Overall it was a great experience. The waiter knew what he was talking about and offered good suggestions. The food was exellent and the environment was great. Although it was busy there was never any pressure to leave after you were done eating. I will definitely go back and now I'm the one suggesting it to friends as the best sushi in Orlando.

    This location of Seito seems to be my go-to place to bring friends from out of town. The drinks are strong and tasty, and the sushi never disappoints. With a nice casual atmosphere, we just sit back and catch up on life over a great meal. And with consistently good service, I never have to worry that this is a bad choice for my guests. Even my snooty "big city" friends from New York raved about the service we received on a late night visit. They also loved the Spicy Tuna Osaka Press, which had a nice crunchy texture to it. This was different than a normal sushi roll, since the rice is cubed. I've also enjoyed the Mango Tango roll, the Sweetheart Roll, and the simple Seito Roll. Delish! But be warned- order these rolls one or two at a time. They creep up on you and the next thing you know you are stuffed! And no sushi should ever go to waste! Even if sushi is not your thing, the Nabeyaki Udon Soup or the Bulgogi Beef are both great choices. Both are nice sized portions, so everyone is bound to leave full and happy.

    My family and I came here for dinner last weekend and wanted just a quick meal but this turned out to be one of the worst dining experiences I've had in a long time. We arrived at about 7pm and didn't manage to escape until almost 10pm. That is an absolutely joke. The service was pretty terrible overall and our waitress, although she was nice, had extreme OCD. She would count out loud after taking each person's order and took forever to get us answers on questions we had about the menu. We didn't order anything complex and she mentioned that 1 person's order is what slowed down the delivery. The bartenders are extremely indifferent and seem incompetent with no sense of urgency. The restaurant really wasn't even that busy which is why this was so confusing. If you are going for maybe appetizers and have 3 hours to kill then this is your place but I was so thrilled to get out of here. Plenty of other sushi restaurants in the area to choose from with much better service.

    Seito I'd by far one of the best Japanese restaurants I've been to. Definitely the best in Orlando! They have a modern but comfortable atmosphere and the staff impressed me more and more with each visit. I enjoy the modern take on Japanese cuisine and appreciate the fact their menu isn't like every other basic Japanese restaurant. If your a foodie and appreciate authentic food then this is definitely your type of place. I mean they even make their noodles in house! If that doesn't say something about the quality of their food then maybe you should try your local buffet

  • Melly S.

    Seito, what have you done? The service is not as attentive, whether at the table or the bar (where we prefer to sit). Menu changes are great, but favorites have been deleted or 'revamped' with apparently a new Chef and higher prices. Our weekly go-to neighborhood place isn't as comforting anymore - and as one of the nicest atmosphere's in the area, that is disappointing. Maybe once the new place, Osprey Tavern, opens the cordial owner will turn his attention back to Seito and get it back on track. Hats off to Jimmy and Dan, always a pleasure to see behind the bar! The eliminated parking lot in the Village doesn't help the situation, esp on weekends....Baldwin Park really hurt the business owners with that move....so count on searching for street parking.

  • Tiffany G.

    Dylan was an incredible server. He was extremely attentive to the table's food allergies! The sushi is delicious and there were some fun spins on basic sushi bar items. The only complaint I have is the cost. Maybe it's because I am used to sushi prices on the West Coast (Oregon), but $65 for lunch (with tip) is a little much regardless of the delish factor.

  • Andi P.

    I've seen this place grow and I have to say that the food has never suffered! The sweetheart roll is a must for anyone with a sweet tooth and the Alaskan crunch roll is out of this world. Location. Location. Location. Now that you know the food is delish, make sure to get seated outside if its a nice day/night out. This sushi spot is located on a wonderful corner of the Main Street in Baldwin Park and has fabulous outdoor seating. The inside is a treat too since they expanded. The decor is chic and modern and the lighting is perfect for a date night (none of those darn fluorescent lights here!). 10/10 highly recommend!

    I ordered take-out and the food came at the estimated time, and they gave us soup, and sturdy bags for my large order. The staff was friendly and the whole place looked super good. The meat dishes were very yummy and worth it, however everything else (Tempura, Rolls, and Sushi) were average. Nothing was terrible, however everything was average food, yet it was fairly expensive. Granted it is sushi, but for the quality respective to the price, I didn't think it was the best. A fair place. The Wagyu meat was delicious and worth the price, however everything else, I felt, was overpriced.

    Came here on a double date for dinner at 8. After being greeted warmly, a table was set up in just a minute (we had a reservation). The service is nothing to fawn over, but solid nonetheless. The ambiance is wonderful. Not loud or too quiet, with dim lighting. Romantic yet not overly so. The sushi is great. It's fresh and beautifully presented. There are plenty of rolls to choose from, as well as nigiri, sashimi, and chirashi. The Korean Chirashi is fantastic. Everyone enjoyed their sushi rolls as well. It's pricey, but you pay for the experience- and it's worth it.

    I've been coming to Seito Sushi for a while now and every visit has been a good one. My husband and I will come in and enjoy a happy hour drink at the bar. If we come in Monday - Thursday we can enjoy their new Bar Bites menu. They seemed to have tweaked the days (use to be available on Fridays too) and now only allow the special in the bar area. The BBQ Tacos and Stuffed Jalapeños on the Bar Bites menu were delicious. If I'm not sitting at the bar I'm usually with a large group enjoying a meal in the back of the restaurant. The times I've gone with a group we had a fun time enjoying a delicious meal. Service was wonderful too and very attentive while dining with a large table Seito Sushi shows that if you offer quality food in an inviting atmosphere along with good service you're bound to succeed. Whenever I walk past the restaurant the tables are filled with folks enjoying their meal. In a neighborhood that could use more dining, I'm thankful that Seito Sushi offers up a quality choice.

    AMAZING Sushi - every time I go I am always impressed by the service, hospitality and the food. The drinks are phenomenal, My personal favorite is the strawberry basil martini. For example, I was eating at lunch with a friend out of town and we got caught up in conversation and they actually close in the afternoon and reopen for dinner, they waiter came by and mentioned last call so we both ordered another drink but he told us no rush as all and we closed out tabs. Another waitress came out and asked if we needed anything else and we jokingly stated another drink but we knew the bar had closed and she said "No problem, let me just ask if thats ok?" They ended up serving us another drink even after the bar had closed now THAT is TRUE SERVICE. Def my favorite sushi place in orlando and I always take my parents when they're in town!

    Sophisticated and modern vibes with great menu items. I've spent $8 and left happy and I've spent $50 and left happy. They also have great service and a nice happy hour. Always start with the garlic edamame!

    Love the fresh sushi here! The sashimi grande is beautifully presented and decor is nice as well. I especially enjoyed the salmon sashimi-extremely tasteful

    Seito Sushi Baldwin Park is always at the top of my list of places to go to enjoy a wonderful meal, well crafted beverage and attentive service. The chic and streamlined feel of the interior never fails to make an impression and switch your gears from regular life to a nice evening as you walk through the door and absorb the atmosphere. While I continue to enjoy lunches, dinners and beverages here, I'll focus on their new happy hour offerings for this review. A group of us met for drinks and they happily accommodated our large party (15) and had us seated and taking orders from our wonderful server, Dani. Bryan M said it well "Some servers get overwhelmed with a larger group and some just know how to run the show". Dani handled all of 15 of us efficiently and with a friendly manner, while being attentive and keeping the beverages flowing, the food paced, dishes cleared and the checks appropriately tallied. This was no small feat with our group, who was ordering non stop. Per the usual, the food and beverages were wonderful. The new bar bites menu (pic) features 5 items for $6 which are offered Monday-Friday from 5-7pm. Our group sampled all of them, they were outstanding. I wish I could point to a favorite, but all of the items were proclaimed delicious. The Tuna Crunch roll had a great portion of ahi and wonderful flavors, numerous were ordered. The Chicken Satay was a nice portion and the stuffed Jalapeno was a fun spin on a popper, offering a wedge of jalapeno topped with a spicy krab, bacon and cream cheese filling. Beverages ordered varied from beers, to specialty martinis and sake. Whether you enjoy a mixed drink or a straight up martini, Seito Baldwin Park can mix a beverage to appeal to your palate. Our group lingered over uni, garlic lime edamame, various dumplings and rolls with our beverages and had a wonderful time. Seito offers a variety of fully cooked items and raw items on both the new Bar bites menu and their regular menu.

    It's been awhile since I've come back here, they changed their lunch menu. It went from 4 or 5 pgs to 2. Half one side is just drinks. No bento boxes. The best thing there was their bento deals and the presentation/taste of their fried ice cream. Now, I know why it wasn't busy like it usually is. Bento deals were a huge draw at lunch time.

    Service was excruciatingly slow, apps came out before drinks. Sushi was much smaller than in the past. I really hope they return to how things used to be, would not go back if this had been our first time.

    Seito used to be 5 out of 5 stars. Best in town. Used to be. The new chef has failed to maintain the standard Seito has always been known for. Nothing tastes as good as it used to and it's a shame. Seito has always been my favorite in town, but that's changed thanks to the past few times I've been there.

    Seito Sushi never fails to provide excellent service and food. They always do a great job handling big parties and the food is absolutely delicious! I've celebrated countless birthdays here and recommend others to go here when indecisive about where to eat. I recommend ordering one of the Sushi combinations, they give you a wide selection (ranging from tuna, salmon, scallop, uni, ikura.) Portions are very generous and the rice has a firm but crumbly texture. Use the soy sauce provided with your sushi/sashimi combo. Super fresh fish!!! Not only fresh, but beautifully presented. Seito does a great job timing out when Sushi and Kitchen food comes out as well (together), which makes this one of my ideal places to eat at with big groups. You can't go wrong with any of the items on their menu. I personally would order Sushi and Sashimi to enjoy the freshness, but they have an array of Rolls here as well. Few favorite: Seito Roll and Beauty and the Beast Roll. The Nabeyaki udon noodle could have been a bit more traditional (using a clear Dashistock rather then using a Miso base), but noodles are probably not their speciality so ..... yeah. Seito never fails to deliver on service, atmosphere and food quality.

    I've always loved seito sushi! However their decision to get rid of the Bento Box at lunch is most unfortunate. All of us who dine at Seito are sad and disappointed. The bento box is the perfect lunch and "the deal" is nothing close. The most frustrating thing is the explanation the customers are getting is that it is "too difficult" to make all the different portions for the bento box. It's been successful for years. There is a simple solution - "bring back the bento box!" Just do it- bring back the Bento box!!!

    The Tonkotsu ramen on the new, sustainable, local and "farm-fresh" lunch menu is the best I have had. The pork is tender and flavorful. You can instinctively taste how fresh it is. The soy sauce egg is flavorful and perfectly cooked with a soft, runny yolk. The broth has several layers of depth to it, and the hand-pulled noodles are just firm enough. Will go back for this meal again and again.

    Have been here twice in the past couple of weeks. Consistently good sushi and excellent ambiance for a date night or Girls' Night. Love sitting at the sushi bar, but the people-watching on Broad Street also makes for a good dinner show. I always get their sashimi... nice and fresh. For those of you who love the presentation of a roll, but prefer to avoid excess rice, consider the Seito Roll, which has lots of fresh fish and is wrapped in cucumber. For a really hearty roll, try the Torchamaki Roll. It has spicy crawfish, white fish and asparagus. And it's seared with a torch, giving it a smoky flavor. Definitely recommended if you're looking for fresh sushi served in a chic, modern setting.

  • Yeselie R.

    The sushi is great here and we always went for lunch (bento box). They completely overhauled their lunch menu and now the bento box is not completely gone. The sushi is still really good so I would recommend visiting but it is a bummer that they got rid of that...

    Seito Sushi has a very trendy ambiance. I felt underdressed with my khaki shorts and v-neck shirt. Maybe that's why the hostess put us in the back corner by the WC (water closet for those that don't know...) letters. I liked the wine cellar by the bar. We had three rolls: The Distinguished Gentleman I like the surf n turf concept of the roll, but it honestly just didn't really stand out to me. Ultimate Spicy Tuna This was the highlight of the three rolls we had. A spicy tuna roll... wrapped in MORE tuna... with sesame oil and kobachi sauce. Yum! Soft Shell Crab Roll Your typical soft shell crab/spider roll. I think the crab was fried for too long for our roll. We also had various sashimi and some ikura and uni nigiri. The uni was fresh and had a nice texture to it. Sweet and nutty taste.. I enjoyed it. One point I can't forget is that Seito Sushi has Japanese Craft Beer... always a plus. My gf had an Echigo Red Ale and I had a Coedo Shiro (Hefeweizen) Service was nice and attentive. I think we may have ordered a couple of wrong rolls for our first visit. But I think Seito Sushi does a good job executing their food. I would come back to try some of the entrees and some other rolls.

    I really liked this place. The decor was really nice and the food was really good. I had my heart set on getting the volcano roll but they no longer had it on the menu :(. Why?!?! I ordered the dumplings and had a shrimp tempura and spicy tuna roll and it was delish. I just thought it was a bit pricey so I'm not sure that I would go back since there are other places that are just as good and costs a lot less. By the way, the strawberry basil cocktail was really good.

    Previously an excellent menu now a new one. I have no problem with change except they did not listen to their customers and dropped off several of the important dishes. Although there are many changes that are for the better, removing the bento boxes from the lunch menu will prove to be a mistake. Changing from a leather covered menu to a single paper menu, a mistake. Removing desserts like the creme brulee loved by everyone not good. Seito should be all about the best sushi, quality grade and presentation. It seems like it is all about cutting cost without changing prices. I don't think this strategy will work. A restaurant that doesn't listen to its customers My personal favorite and what I order every time the moriawase sashimi deluxe: off of the menu. I used to go once a month and was willing to pay $38 for excellent sushi. What we have is a rebirth into mediocre. What we want is the return of the signature dishes. Until then kabuki sushi and firefly are much better.

    Seito Sushi is a pretty decent place in Orlando. We had sashimi and it was amazing! The volcano rolls were good. Only thing is that it was a pretty small dish in a huge plate. The waiting staff was very helpful and very kind. They would come every so often and ask if we needed anything, and would make sure our drinks were full each time they came around. The environment was also very great along with the atmosphere. Music was on point and gave a family friendly atmosphere, but could also be a good place to hang out with friends or coworkers. I highly recommend this place if you are planning to eat Japanese food in Orlando.

    This USED to be my favorite sushi spot, we live two blocks away and come here all the time. But, busy with holidays and a new year...we haven't been in about two months and after tonight I don't know if we will ever come back. We were seated right away, but it took 15 minutes for a server to even come to our table and greet us, and that happened only after I asked two different servers for help. It took another 45 minutes to actually receive our food. We only ordered three sushi rolls, people who were seated 20 minutes after we were had their food before we did. It was pretty ridiculous. Also, they completely changed the menu but kept the same names. If you go there expecting that classic, delicious volcano roll, DONT Get your hopes up. It's completely different now. Granted, it's still good, but it's NOT a volcano roll. Just a heads up if, like us, you're so used to eating here that you just order your favorites. Sucks how one terrible experience can make you lose all respect for one of your favorite places. Guess we will just head over to Sushi Lola's or Jade Bistro from now on.

    The decor and atmosphere are great at seito. And now that I'm done with the positives let's get to the review. We came for a weekend lunch at seito, hoping to find a great restaurant to frequent because we just got an apartment in the area. We were handed menus with 8 sushi rolls, 3 bowls of ramen, 3 rice bowls, and some appetizers and salads. Not to be discouraged, we ordered a dish from each section. I had the gyu ramen, which was advertised to have a pho broth, brisket, and ramen noodles. The dish came out looking like it was made with a beef boulion cube and machrurian ramen noodles ( and tasted like it too). The brisket was 2 slabs of overcooked beef that looked like they belonged in a can of alpo. My girlfriend got a chicken rice bowl with kimchee and a "coddled" egg. The rice was totally bland and kimchee tasted like it was made with tomato paste. The egg was an embarrassing combination of over done yolk and somehow raw white. The sushi roll had decent fish, but came with a pre prepared wasabi and soy mixture, no extra amount of either. I really don't understand the glowing reviews of this place because almost every dish we experienced left us shaking our heads at how much better it could have been, and how cheap the ingredients seemed to be. I will come back to try the dinner menu, when they actually serve sushi instead of telling you what you should want.

    Awesome place. Awesome staff. Awesome sushi. Awesome happy hour! I was pleased with my service at Seito Sushi. Everything was so tasty and the happy hour drink special had a lot of delicious choices. There is a nice vibe in this place to meet with your girls or even go for a nice date. I loved it and will definitely be eating here again.

    Sorry to say but the last few times I've been here after my last semi-bad review? The place seems to be getting worse. I used to count on them, at the least, having great quality and very fresh fish. This was not the case this time. I can tell when the sashimi is old and has been frozen as opposed to when it's really fresh. I ordered a salad. Great that they brought back the ginger dressing, but my salad was soaked in it. I couldn't eat all of it because it was so drenched. I also ordered mostly sashimi. I got some Toro that tasted like it was about to turn and it didn't seem like good quality, melt-in-your-mouth toro, the way it should be. I also ordered hamachi sashimi that didn't taste fresh either. The ikura was pretty good. The scallop was good. Also got a salmon hand roll that was fresh. The Seito roll didn't taste very good, I think because they no longer use the escolar and it makes a difference. Anyway... For a mediocre meal this cost me $100 with the tip. I did order 1 glass of wine and 1 cocktail, but $100 for one person is pretty outrageous unless the food is top notch. Every time lately that o come here I say I won't go back, but I inevitably do because of the location. I will think long and hard before I blow my money here again. The new chef is not living up to whatever the old chef did. There's a reason this place is now suddenly dead all of the time when it used to be packed. Get a clue, owners... Fire the chef.

    This is definitely my favorite sushi place in Orlando. The sweetheart roll is divine. I would eat it every day if I could. The Popeye and distinguished gentlemen are excellent as well. The service is just alright. Sitting at the sushi bar is fun as you get to see the chefs at work. Kind of pricey but definitely worth it. Lunch menu is very reasonable. Overall I love this place.

    Seito can be considered upscale compared to other sushi restaurants. You don't have to get dressed up to come here, but you'll probably be surrounded by people in business attire, coming in after work. Otherwise, you or a family will fit in walking right off the street. Everything is pretty much perfect here, from the food to the service. Because of that, I feel you can end up paying a couple dollars more than other sushi places. Although, if you come for happy hour, you can get great deals on martini's, sake and wine. They had a happy hour food menu, but I think it was discontinued. I wasn't too happy with that selection anyway, as it was mostly fried or too spicy for me. Some of my favorite items are the seaweed salad and miso soup. For entrees, the Bi Mim Bop bowl (on the lunch menu). For rolls, I'll opt for their vegie rolls or a mild fish. I'm allergic to crab/lobster, so I have to stay away from those. I really need to try their appetizers, entrees and other plates more. I guess most people go to sushi places for their rolls, and I tend to eat the same items I mentioned above. They really have a nice variety of non-rolls available, to try and experiment with. The only reason I knocked off 1 star is I feel the price of items are more than other sushi places, such as I can get almost the same Bi Mim Bop at Sushi Lola's in Audobon park right down the street for a couple dollars cheaper.

    I love Seito for their bento box lunches and beef bulgogi entree. I have not lived in Orlando for about a year and my mouth still waters whenever I think about Seito. Pair the beef bulgogi with a glass of Malbec and a side of asparagus, and I promise your taste buds will thank you! I absolutely love sushi, so it is strange that I never order it at Seito. I have not been wowed by it, the few times I have had it there, so I stick to the bulgogi. The Baldwin park location is especially well decorated and has a fun and somewhat posh environment. The staff are warm and attentive and the wait is usually manageable. The Dr. Philips location is also nice, but doesn't have the fabulous neighborhood feel of Baldwin Park. This is at the top of my list of places I need to visit when I am back in The City Beautiful!

    UPDATE!!! So i was extremely honored to receive an email from the owner of this swanky place recently, stating they were inspired by my review to upgrade and update their Volcano Roll. I was invited over to taste it and I have to say GREAT Improvement and I was impressed :) The new Volcano Roll really hits the spot! This place does not fail with their fresh ingredients and innovative rolls. You can taste the excellence on the plate. Still not yoru typical roll or even volcano roll - but wow it was good. Deeeelicious and a MUST TRY for all your Seito Sushi lovers and even newbies!! I highly recomment this new roll. On my second visit I also tried the "Distinguished Gentlemen".. this is a good hearty roll with lots of meat! none of the fluff of cream cheese, tempura or avocado. Just straight up heartiness! If your into that sort of roll... its definately for you. For me... ill stick with my new love for their Volcano Roll and of course the Lobster Crunch :)

  • Dee B.

    So after my initial visit, I received an email from the Owner inviting me to return and try the updated Volcano Roll. Of course, I accepted...I was extremely impressed by his offer. I must say, they definitely got it right! That was an excellent Volcano roll, nothing like it once was. Worth ordering again the next time we go! While there, we also ordered two more rolls (the Lobster roll like the 1st time and the Distinguished Gentlemen). The Distinguished Gentlemen, which was described correctly on the menu as a meaty roll--a little too hearty for me though. Ate a few pieces but I stuck to my other rolls. The food and ambience to this restaurant is great. And with the Customer Service experience that extended beyond my visit (with the owner reaching out) was excellent!!! I'm recommending this place to all my friends/co-workers.

    This is a local favorite - I have been several times and never been disappointed by the service or quality of food - the torchamaki roll is my favorite. The location is great, the decor and ambiance is nice, the service is prompt, professional and proper, and the food is fresh, presented nicely and tastes really good. On top, the pricing isn't over the top. This place has got it right

    Kampai! Seito Susho has an awesome happy hour, with 2-for-1 beer, house wine, and sake. This is a prime location in Baldwin Park, and you can sit outside and people-watch, or even bring your puppy to dinner. Inside, they have a sushi bar with rows of fresh fish where the chefs prepare your food right in front of you. There's also a bar toward the back of the restaurant if you're just in the mood to lounge around. I've always had excellent service here, so definitely no complaints in that regard. One of the problems I have with Seito is that the it doesn't feel quite as authentic as some other sushi restaurants I've been to. Sadly, it's a more modern and American version. I've been fortunate to have traveled to Japan, and I just want a tiny bit more of the culture and authenticity. The price is average for sushi, so expect to spend $10-15 on a specialty roll. Just make sure you go before 7:00 to take advantage of happy hour!

    The sushi was phenomenal but the server was terrible ! However, the bartender Dan who made us drinks while we waited, was very friendly and his drinks were great. The sushi rice was unlike any of the dozen different places' I've had in Orlando; I don't know what the secret is but whatever it is, it's delicious! If I come back, I'd rather sit at the bar rather than risk the slow, inattentive, unfriendly service at a table.

    This place is so overrated its crazy, not to offend anyone but if you think this is good sushi, you might want to venture out of Baldwin Park more. The service is slow and the food is fishy and very small rolls. I dont suggest this place at all to anyone.

    I went to get some sushi with six of my friends. We had made reservations earlier in the day, and good thing we did! We met up at 8PM and it was packed, on a Wednesday night. The decor in the restaurant was classy. A huge wine rack was the centerpiece of place. Lights were dimmed enough where it's a relaxing atmosphere. It would be a nice place for a romantic date, or just a sushi get together with friends. I had an awesome experience at Seito's. Service was wonderful- the waitress was very friendly. The rolls were nicely presented and tasted great. Seito's had plenty of signature rolls on their menu, all of them sounded delicious. Decent prices for what you're getting too! I had the Philly and Volcano roll. Mmm! Smaller rolls than the signature ones, but still filling for me. Definitely would go again, I loved it!

    My favorite Japanese place. I always get the spicy tuba kobachi and ask for a side of sushi rice to eat it with. I also add masago and ask for extra kobachi sauce and sesame oil to dip it in. My brother and grandpa like cooked rolls so always get the TNT Crunch Roll. My mother and grandmother love the Ichiban roll. They also get the different colored raw fish eggs nigiri style. The hijiki salad is yummy too. They make a great creme brûlée here. Great customer service. I've never had a bad experience.

    I'm giving Seito 4 stars because of our previous visits to this Baldwin Park sushidello. We had dinner Monday evening at Seito with a couple friends who'd never been there before. We'd bragged about how good the food was and how pretty the restaurant was. After visiting Seito maybe 10 times I'd say we've had good service 6 out of those 10 times (that's why I gave them 4 stars and not 2 or 3). Nothing really bad, but we've encountered servers who seemed to just not be with it and a little ditzy. Their manager usually steps in and gets things going again, but it's uncomfortable watching one of the servers have that kind of night. On Monday, we started off with a guy as a server... he took our drink orders while we were waiting for our two dining companions to arrive. Once they were seated he took their drink orders... we still hadn't been given the drinks we ordered 10 minutes ago. Finally... he brings our drinks and everybody has something to quench their thirst. Then... perky female waiter comes over and announces I'm ready to take your order. Hmm.... where'd the dude go? No explanation, but we were happy to order. Food came out quickly by 3 or 4 different people and no sign of our perky female. She eventually came back to check on us and was gone again. Food was good and our friends enjoyed dinner, but we all felt like we were a bit of an inconvenience to the service staff. The restaurant wasn't particularly busy and there were several open tables around. We live close by and like visiting Seito, but we'd really appreciate more consistent service.

    My family and I make a visit here at least once a month, it is by far our favorite Asian fusion restaurant. They have a very diverse menu which works well if you're with someone who doesn't have a palate for raw fish. Their food is predominantly Korean and Japanese. The bulgogi beef is exquisite if you're not a sushi lover. The sushi is always so fresh, I've never had bad sushi here. The sunrise and beauty and the beast roll are my two favorites. The atmosphere is great; very modern and chic with the background music to match. Service is also great. No complaints about this place. It is on the pricier side for sushi but is worth it when you take into account the service/location/environment.

    One of our favorite sushi places in Orlando. The ambiance is very inviting and comfortable. The food is outstanding. We've been here many times, mostly for the sushi. Our favorite are the Ichiban, which has a fresh orange flavored sauce that nicely complements the roll, and the Popeye, which has a nice kick to it. The miso soup and ginger salad are standard fare - solid, tasty items. Our son had the Yakisoba - he loved it. It came in a huge bowl and he couldn't finish it all. This is a great restaurant and wonderfully enjoyable dining experience. Recommend to anyone looking for a fresh menu, with an incredibly palatable selection of sushi rolls.

    We have been in Seito Sushi restaurant 4 times during past 12 months and it was pleasant experience , fresh food and exceptional service. But today 03/08/14 every thing turn on its head. There was 3 different waiters serving us and at the times there was confusion in between them who really took the order and if the order was placed or not in they're system. For the first time we order in Seito sweet potato tempura roll, Big turn off, it was tasted of cheep margarine or butter substitute , .After one byte it tasted like a bad margarine.Is Seito Sushi chef cares about it?

    This is the best sushi place in Orlando! Love the atmosphere at this location and the sushi is simply delightful! I have tried a few of their rolls on my last visit (I love variety!) My sweetheart (not the roll) and I had a nice date here last Friday and shared a bottle of their house pinot noir and the Alaskan Crunch Roll, Corona Roll, and the Sweetheart Roll! The Sweetheart Roll has so many wonderful flavors(mostly sweet hence the name!) It is filled with coconut shrimp, mango, and cream cheese, with snow crab salad and the roll sits on top of an apricot glaze that just brings this masterpiece together! The Corona Roll is very different and on the spicier side! It doesn't say on the menu, but this roll had jalapenos on top of it! The roll came together very nicely as the cajun seasoned grilled shrimp inside was hugged together by a tempura asparagus and cucumber topped with snow crab, pico de gallo, lime, and cilantro. Very unique and sounds like a weird combination for sushi but I assure you it is delicious! One of my favorites, in fact! The Alaskan Crunch is great for smoked salmon fans! It had snow crab salad stuffed inside with tempura flakes which gave it nice texture and crunch! It was topped with smoked salmon and drizzled lightly with eel sauce. I loved this roll! Simple and delicious! I hate when places over-do it with the eel sauce and their whole sushi menu ends up tasting the same: Eel sauce'd and spicy mayo'd up. Seito is definitely not one to fall into that category! They really do specialize in fresh fish and quality ingredients with unique and tasty combinations which I haven't found anywhere else. I recommend trying something new every time you come here! You'll be surprised at what your next favorite sushi roll might be!

    Seito Sushi is a good sushi place that just seems to be missing something that would make it truly great. This particular location in the Baldwin Park area really benefits from the overall vibe of the neighborhood. The atmosphere is very relaxed but still a bit upscale and the service is friendly and prompt. The sushi itself is good, but I just wasn't as blown away by it as I thought I would be. They had a decent selection of rolls and none are terrible, but I couldn't shake the feeling that I have had better at better prices even here in Orlando. So while I did think the restaurant was fine overall, I can't quite give it 5 stars. The tone of this review comes off worse than my experience was, as I did enjoy my night at the restaurant and would certainly go back.

    Orlando has the best sushi compared to south Florida. This place was really good. Ordered TNT, beauty and the beast, and crunch roll. Also tasted kimchi fritters (so good!). Thank you to our friend who knew one of the sushi chef! 2 stars: Our table did have to find our own plates and silverware. It wasn't offered. It didn't seem that busy but our table was about 16 ppl. But still no excuse to have us self serve.

    The sushi is decent, but a little pricey imo. We don't have really great sushi options in Orlando, but Seito is one of your best bets. Some locations are better than others. I happen to think the celebration and baldwin park locations are best.

    Seito is, and has been, my favorite sushi place around. The food is always crazy fresh and good and the ambiance is the best! I love everything about Seito!

    We recently moved in to Baldwin Park & have increased our dining frequency here. Hands-down this is some of the freshest / best sushi in town! The sushi chef continues to put together great tastes and fabulous presentations! Service has been above average every time we've been in & we've not had a bad item yet! Full liquor bar along w/ a nice variety of sake for your enjoyment. This is on par w/ Amura or Bonsai sushi!! They've also got some Korean items on the menu starting w/ cabbage kimchi and they've also got Bulgogi which is delish!! The Lava sushi has baked scallops on top of a Cali roll which is to die for ... And to add a little personal touch they've created their own house hot sauce in lieu of siracha ... You gotta try this place!!

    A cozy, inviting atmosphere (a little Manhattan without all the hustle and bustle), interesting drink list (and some really nice beers and wines too!), excellent food, and easy to get to Baldwin Park. What more could you want? I had ad drink called the Remedy which was quite tasty and smooth. I treated myself to the Chilean Sea Bass that was cooked perfectly with tasty edamame. My friend had a variety of sushi and they all devoured their dinners. They cook great care with presentation of all the dishes and I admit I wanted to try them all. Since I am not familiar with sushi for the most part, I opted to skip it. That was one thing I really liked---someone who doesn't care for sushi or doesn't know much about it can have a tasty, innovative entree. I was invited here for a birthday party and I was a tad worried but I need not have been. Our server was very helpful with the menu. I will return here again and give the sushi a try.

    No more bento boxes? No more seito. Bento boxes were the best thing here for lunch, what genius decided to remove them from the menu?

    Best Sushi around. I recommend to everyone! Whenever someone is in town or wants sushi and has not tried Seito, this is the place I take them. Love the Spicy Tuna roll, chicken tempura and TNT Crunch roll.

    Had the New Brunswick and sweetheart roles. Sushi was ok, not the best and not the worst. However, for the price, I expected more. The happy hour specials are decent if you enjoy martinis w your sushi.

    There were a lot of things wrong at this dinner. I ordered the nigiri and the rice kept falling apart and I couldn't get it all the way to my mouth with out it falling all over the place. The fish was either too fishy, or too sinewy or both. My husband got 2 rolls that left him with indigestion. I think it was one of the worst sushi I've had in quiet some time. On the positive side, it has a nice ambiance, good waitstaff, and decent miso soup.

    So disappointed in the new menu!!! I live in BP and used to visit this establishment very often with my wife and family. Now they have drastically changed thier menu I think in an attempt to divide their menu and patrons with their new restaurant opening up across the street. I tried the lunch menu only to have 3 rolls to choose from (now enlarged to 10), no bento boxes. I'm not even sure they have a sushi chief on site for lunch. I was very disappointed. I gave them one more try for dinner. Half the menu is gone for dinner also. No clear broth soup, chicken tempura, lobster roll, bento, not even Mexican rolls are on the menu. We ordered 3 orders of chicken teriyaki for the kids and all the chicken came out charred. Wow !! what an incredible drop in the quality and variety for this restaurant. I will not return unless they bring back many of the old menu items. The crowds are gone...as am I!!

    My wife and I were in town to look for homes. She had been here and wanted me to try it. The service was great. We both enjoyed some wine during happy hour and feasted on some delicious garlic lime edemame. I will be back to eat this again once we move to Florida. (we like to frequent the same places especially when they are so good) Our rolls came and were a very nice size. I was impressed and think that most people would be. Sitting outside was also a nice way to enjoy a good meal.

    Seito sushi has completely redone its menu and eliminated many popular items. Most sushi options. Bento boxes, appetizers and other signature items are simply gone. The menu is now a single page with very limited options. No longer worth a trip. One of the better Orlando restaurants is now gone.

    Seito sushi has great quality Japanese food, sushi, sashimi, dessert and drinks. I try to go to Seito Sushi for lunch usually. The lunch bento boxes and sashimi / sushi specials are a good deal and very delicious. They come with soup and a salad as well. They have daily happy hour and on weekends it starts at noon and includes beer, sake, martini, and well drink specials. I have also tried one of the desserts that was amazing which had frozen lemon mousse and layers of cake. It was very satisfying. The atmosphere is really great inside and the outdoor seating is a fun spot to people watch and enjoy the weather on a nice day.

    We were in Orlando for a trade show and were in the mood for some sushi. One of my colleagues was from LA and I have had sushi around the world so we were a little skeptical having sushi in the Magic Kingdom. We found Seito in yelp and were extremely surprised on how good this place was. The location was convenient and the atmosphere was hip, modern yet still felt like a Japanese restaurant should. Menu was excellent and reasonably priced. Fish was fresh and the chefs selections were excellent. The hamachi kama was extremely well done. They had fresh uni that day and we all agreed it was the best uni we have ever had. Best of all dinner and drinks for 3 of us was only $135 including tip. Crazy cheap for good sushi. I spent 4 times that much in Vegas for a clearly inferior meal. A legit 5 stars. Will definitely plan on going there again next time Im in Orlando.

    Seito in Baldwin Park lived up to the hype of the other reviews. This was an excellent dining experience. We went for happy hour, but could not control our ordering. I ordered an Ascot, which included Earl Grey and Sage Infused Vodka, St Germaine, and ginger ale. Excellent. The BBQ calamari was perfect, as was the ginger and garlic edamame. The wilted spinach salad (chilled) was nice and refreshing (more like a palate cleanser than a salad). I meant to order sushi, but was tempted by the bulgogi. Wow. Just the right amount of sweet, with onions cooked to perfection. My husband ordered the tuna, which was stunningly good--a most beautiful piece of fish. Even the napa cabbage slaw was delicious. Our server was personable and attentive. The outdoor seating was nice. You could kinda sorta see where the lake might be. My only complaint was having to listen to the loud and pretentious woman next to us, who insisted on eating her sushi roll with a fork, telling her daughter how much prettier her friend was, and shouting her daughter into submission over something having to do with cell phone spelling. Oh well. Nothing is ever perfect. But Seito came very, very close.

    The kimchee fritters are very good! I'm not a fan of their food and boxes. The sushi made me (and a couple others) feel sick. I really wanted to like this place more. It won't be my last time there, but maybe make your orders specialized so you don't eat things you might not like. Nice servers :)

    Q: Sure you can do sushi, but what else? A: Quite a bit! I had to tag along to this location when I wasn't necessarily in a sushi mood. So, it was going to take more than chirashi, sushi, and udon to satisfy the senses this time. Looking through the menu, I opted for a seared tuna entree, based on the description and the side items. It came out with what could almost be described as a horseradish béarnaise, sushi rice, and some tricked out coleslaw. Oops, I didn't mention the tuna. Seared perfectly, the inside still had a pulse. It was delicious. And the quantity was just enough to warrant the price (which wasn't obscene). The interior of this place is gorgeous, I'm still partial to Shari's interior, but this location is a very close second. The wall of wine bottles was a chic touch.

    This place would have gotten five stars if it wasn't for our waiter. Last night we decided to go here for dinner. The restaurant has a very nice atmosphere to it. The lights were soothing and it just made you feel really comfortable. Our waiter was some dude named Addison. He started out just fine. Great attitude, polite, and respectful. I had the Spicy Tuna Roll and the Eel Roll. My boyfriend had the Insanity Roll, New York Roll, and the Spicy Tuna Roll as well. They were all delicious. My boyfriend didn't like the insanity roll because it didn't have any "kick" to it at all. We sat in the area where the bar was. I have to say it was very nice in there. Loved the couch they had and all the other decor. While we were enjoying our evening we noticed that our waiter was becoming more and more "M.I.A" if you know what I mean. We ate and once we were done we wanted a to-go box and the check. Our waiter was talking to some guys that he obviously knew and stood at their table for quite a while. My boyfriend was staring right at him. This went on for too long and I started to get upset. The more he ran his mouth the worse my temper got. Luckily, another guy named Dan (Superman theme plays) came along and asked me was everything okay and if he could help me. Politely, I told him that I would like a to-go box and the check please. He was so sweet. He went right ahead with everything and got us taken care of. I asked him what his name was, shook his hand and gave him a tip. I usually don't carry cash but I just happen to have some. I graciously thanked him and told him that they need more people here like him. After all of this went on don't you know dude was STILL TALKING to those people?! Im like what in the world? What kinda -ish is this?! You mean to tell me that these people come and you stop everything you doing and forget that you are at your job? He obviously don't like generous tips and he must be well off in life and don't need the money. Overall, everything was great here except for ADDISON. When you go here AVOID ADDISON at all cost! RUN!!!! Im not joking. You will be better off getting your own drinks and turning in your order yourself if you had to rely on him. Not professional at all. Ask for DAN! DAN IS YOUR MAN! I don't know about anyone else but if I am working a certain area I would not let someone else come in and possibly steal my guests and my tips! Well that is exactly what happened. Dan also ended up helping a few other people there as well. I was so heated that I didn't even get to try their Creme Brulee and I love that dessert. I bet it was delicious! Everything else at this restaurant the host, the food, the atmosphere, DAN, the friendly people, the lighting- EXCELLENT! Just avoid Addison at all costs if you can. He will make you think that this is a self-service-Japanese-restaurant. Guess Im supposed to go and make my own sushi to huh? Might as well if he is the waiter. Geez man...

    This is still by far my favorite sushi place. I may be biased (first date with my husband was here, and my law school friends and I often meet here for drinks and rolls), but Sieto sushi is where it is at. The ambiance, the food, the drinks, everything is top notch. We all love coming here because it is the best. I have never had a bad time here. The food is ALWAYS great and the service is almost always perfect. I will always have a place in my heart for Seito Sushi, and they remain the top of their game.

    Food fantastic; service is amateur! We keep going here for the food, but the service is seriously bad. On our last visit, the waitress did not understand much English, which is fine, but she also did not know much about the menu, which was frustrating. Every time we go, we need to help to clear our 1st plates (edamame, etc.) to make room for the sushi. Each time, the server just stands there, very impatient, as we scramble to make room on the table. Shouldn't they clear the 1st plates, then bring the others? Bad coordination. Last time, when the food server brought our sushi order, he pushed it all in front if us, where there was NO room, and he spilled my expensive, full cup of cold sake. When I pointed it out, he said he would replace it. We never saw him again. When I mentioned it to our waitress, she brought me a napkin. No sake replacement, or anything! Terrible service! I rate a 2 stars only for the food.

    So I've been coming to this location of Seito since it opened and it used to be my favorite location for sushi here in Orlando. We stopped here for lunch yesterday and I was gravely disappointed that they don't even list a vegetarian roll on their menu anymore. Of course it is there if you ask for it, but it is just a generic vegetable roll. I ended up having a noodle dish with extra veggies which was delicious but again, it was something I had to ask for as nothing was vegetarian as listed. Our server, Dylan, was awesome, and dessert was delicious. The Seito Sushi on Turkey Lake Road offers fabulous vegetarian roll options, but this location says they are unable to make those here for me. Honestly, next time I will make the drive to the other side of town to that Seito for my sushi cravings.

    Great food but it takes way too long to actually get your food. I work not too far from here so I can honestly say that I have eaten here 30+ times in the last two years. Always 45 minutes to get my food.... The place is not ever too busy or not of a large space to reason for the delay in food.

    This is in close running to be my favorite sushi place in Orlando. If we were going on location and ambiance, this would win. However, I have favorite rolls at other Sushi places. But if you had to make me choose at this moment in time, yes my fav sushi place! I have been here on various occasions, chillin' with my ladies, on dates, with a group of people...and every time has been successful and enjoyable. They have great service and I adore the location. I guess I have a weakness for Baldwin Park. Also sits on the corner at the end of New Broad and has fabulous outdoor seating, great for people watching!! And puppy watching - my fav! They have delicious martinis, awesome rolls and pretty good fusion dishes. The house salad is a must, great portion and always fresh. I usually get rolls when I come here but yesterday I got the egg noodles and chicken in a tangy sauce. YUM! It was delightful! I also had requested cucumber water and they were more than willing to accommodate. I loved it! I will continue to be a regular at this location and suggest everyone try it out if you want somewhere awesome to grab a drink or food!

    The capital expenditure is evident, and fortunately there was money left for top flight ingredients and intensive employee training. That's the Zeitgeist folks. Here are the details: Excellent decor and Fung Shui. You can tell that money was spent on a high end designer. And the layout just flows. Friendly Staff. The dudes at the sushi bar work hard, but they aren't so focused that they forget to say hello or chat about miscellany. They're friendly and approachable. Happy Hour. Nice drink specials and a few bucks off the Maki. Excellent food and artful presentation. To borrow a line from Forrest Gump. "That's all I have to say about that." I found the gratuity suggestions to be a little patronizing. I can personally calculate a percentage faster than a Krey Supercomputer, and I know I'm not alone. Also, the female servers seem to suffer, just a tad, from ISIS ( inflated self image syndrome). I just made that up, but they have a certain "I'm better than you" thing going on.

    Modern, hip, and cool with lounge music piping beckons this anchor at Baldwin Park on Main St. One block away from the spectacular lakeside promenade is this contemporary sushi restaurant. There is wrap around outdoor sidewalk style and lavish indoor seating. The interior is stark and very stylish with a floor to ceiling wine display. Several years ago when this place first opened, that entire wall was a giant blank canvas. I was hoping that they would build something spectacular and they did not disappoint. The wine list back then was also very stark, not today. I am very encouraged that this sushi restaurant has embraced the wonderful world of wines. From the varied and balanced selections it is clear that they did not just accept a giant wine distributor name brand friends. Cheers! We choose a glass of Saarstein Riesling, which had a nice bouquet with hints of mineral and a glass of 2009 Cuvee de Blanc, Huguenot Cellar, Santa Ynez Valley, CA. (Grenache Blanc 33%, Sauvignon Blanc 33%, Gewurztraminer 33%, Love 1%) A clean crisp herby dry white blend that was ever so lightly sweet on the palate. The menu features the regular suspects of rolls on a "sushi list", signature rolls, sashimi, nigiri, appetizers, soups, salads and main courses highlighting Korean and Japanese cuisines. Of course the endangered Chilean Seabass is on the menu. Not sure anyone pays attention to that anymore. I love this fish. But I have to take a stand. Wonder if it will ever come off the endangered list? Did I mention, I love Chilean Seabass? I am not a fan of the sushi list. There, I made my preference known. I believe a restaurant should have servers who are knowledgeable about the menu and be able to guide a guest in ordering. Not a guest marking on a piece of paper their order, why don't I walk it to the sushi chefs also. Maybe, I can pick it up from the sushi bar also. Okay, I know I am getting carried away. On this visit with young hungry bellies to full, who are a little squirmish about sashimi we engaged with these choices: Please visit my blog for full food review. This restaurant has come a long way over the years. I am tempted to say that it has matured. Long gone is the ditsy "hostess", welcome to the personable, courteous team of greeters, servers, and food runners. Oh, a manger even came over and inquired if everything was okay. Swell! The sushi rice for the rolls were well balanced in acidity and texture. Although the menu was very safe maybe the interior space made up for the cool factor. Just a thought, a couple of adventurous items and this restaurant can really up its hip factor.

    Seito is a beautiful location with a nice ambiance. The staff is friendly in spite of their lack of knowledge. I went as a person allergic to shell fish. The menu is shell fish heavy and overpriced. There are maybe 2-3 sushi rolls without shell fish in them. The miso soup came and was barely luke warm. The taste was fine but soup should be hot- or close to it. The meal I ordered was what the waitress recommended and it was a cucumber roll- not rice (which I did not know until it came). For 14 dollars it would not have fed a moderately hungry infant. I asked if I could find a roll like the one my lady friend had and substitute out the shell fish- you would have thought I was asking a quantum physics question. The staff is not at all prepared for people with shell fish allergies. The menu is limited and well thought out- and the food that I did have was overpriced and a shade above poor. My bill was 25 dollars with tip for one roll for the girl I was with and 2 luke warm miso soups as well as a headache from dealing with a polite but ill prepared wait staff unable to solve a simple "what can I get without shell fish?" question. Ambiance is fine...I personally have been to numerous places with better sushi/value. If you have a shell fish allergy- zero stars. If you have no shell fish allergy- 2 stars if you actually know sushi (3-4 if you are dazzled by complexity but don't know good sushi). I live less than a block from the place, and will never go back unless it's to drink sake or accompany someone else.

    I've been going to Seito for the last couple of years and I've always liked it, but like any other place there are some cons. Their sushi is always on point. I'm a huge fan of the Philly roll, an American classic that you can find in any restaurant. I find most places put a ton of cream cheese in their Philly roll, and Seito is the exception. The ingredients are balanced perfectly. Their Alaskan crunch roll is great as well, probably a new favourite of mine. I don't usually like smoked salmon in my sushi, but this one was great. Their regular tuna and salmon rolls are delicious as well. I recently tried their tuna steak and was amazed. It's done rare, which is the only way I'll have it. It was crusted with coconut which wasn't as overbearing as I thought I'd be and I really enjoyed it. Their ginger salad and miso soup are always very good. This place probably has the best miso soup I can find. I used to always order the bulgogi and liked it a lot, but it's a little over seasoned these days. The biggest downfall for this place is that they no longer offer bento boxes during dinner. They opened up their options for bento boxes, now including a sushi and a sashimi one but it's a shame since I only ever go there for dinner. Another con is that the service is so hit and miss. It used to be a lot worse, partially due to the protocols of the restaurant previously and they've done a lot to improve it but you seem to either get a phenomenal waiter or waitress that checks on you every 10 minutes or you get one that won't refill your drinks once during a two-and-a-half-hour meal.

    If it wasn't for the name, there would be no reason whatsoever to think that this location and the Winter Park location are related. The Baldwin Park restaurant is modern and trendy on the inside, with a lot of silver and black and interesting lighting. We ordered three rolls: The Alaskan, the Sunset, and I think it was called the Torchamaki or something like that. For once, I skipped the hamachi nigiri that I usually get on my first visit to a sushi restaurant because we were already spending enough money and for some reason, they wanted $6.50 for two pieces. All three of these rolls were very good. The Alaskan had a nice krab taste with some tempura crunch, and was topped off with a bit of eel sauce. The torchamaki had a unique taste, due mainly to the torching of the whitefish on top of the roll giving it a hint of a burnt flavor (it's not a bad thing). The Sunset (universally voted as the favorite) was wrapped with salmon and topped with a super-thin slice of lemon for an interesting citrus flavor, added to a little sweetness from the spicy ponzu sauce that comes on the side for dipping. Some unique options, to be sure. We almost opted for one of the two chirashi selections though, because there were so few maki options on the menu that we were interested in. We had to scour the menu to find three special rolls that weren't fried, filled with cream cheese or based heavily off of that most boring of all sushi, the California Roll. And as good as our rolls were, they were a bit small for their price. At over $40, I would have hoped to be full enough to skip that trip for frozen yogurt afterward, and I'd say that at many sushi places at that pricing tier, I would be. So Seito looks great on the inside and the sushi is good, but the pricing seems to reflect the decor more than the food. I might come back if I'm in the area, but honestly Sushi Lola's isn't far away and I'd rather be there.

    My favorite place! And I love the location. Definitely a place for everyone, families and locals are always there for early dinner and lunch; hip crowd for late lunch and drinks. LOVE the drinks (Strawberry Basil Sip). The food is really delicious and consistent, you can count on Seito to always deliver! I've been going there at least twice a month for over 2 years!! My only complaint, lately the kitchen seems a bit slow, so it takes over 20 mins to get our food... what's up with that? The sushi bar is fast, so now we order a sushi appetizer since we know the kitchen is slow :-)

  • Marcus S.

    I'll keep this short and sweet; food is great, i highly recommend and the wife and i frequent this place. However, the one issue i will bring up is their lack of a good happy hour menu. They have a few options for happy hour on drinks but where is the happy hour on food? I don't need a crazy menu, just a few rolls at discount prices is all I'm asking for.

  • Nicole W.

    I live near the restaurant and have been going here since march. Its an amazing restaurant with a great atmosphere. Wether you want to just have a drink or eat dinner this is definitely the place to go. Lake baldwin is a great area and amazing place to walk around post dinner. Ive been to seito sushi about 7-8 times now and have tried to order something different every time. Surprisingly the only thing I would not recommend are the edamame (pretty bland), believe me Ive had edamame thats boiled to perfection with butter and a hint of salt. These felt microwaved and dried. Lets start with appetizers: Gyoza (pork dumplings) are delicious, their shumai were ok, their vegetable tempure was really good (zuchinni, carrot, onion, and 2 pieces of prawns), Their ceviche (conch, octopus and whitefish with crisp vegetables in lime juice) is extraordinary! Ive never had such great quality civiche and with such plethora of seafood. Its a good palate cleanser. Their ginger salad was spectacular and if you just want some soup their clear broth was pretty good. Their bento boxes are spectacular: you get a lot of food and at a great price. Chicken teriyaki, 5 peices of california roll, miso soup, ginger salad, 3 pork dumplings and rice all for 9$ .... im dead serious! add and for the same price you can also get the shrimp and vegetable tempura bento box. As for their sushi: Mexican roll (all time fav), sweetheart roll (for the sweet tooth at heart), boston roll, california roll, rock n' roll, soft shell crab roll, spicy octopus, crunchy shrimp, and for the vegetarian their sweet potato roll was pretty good.

    The location is great. The sushi was phenomenal. They have outside seating available. It is a nice place to bring your dog to dinner, sit and catch up with a friend, and people watch. If you get a chance, come here for happy hour. Great deal on 2 for 1 wines, sake, and beer! The atmosphere and the food were great, but had to give it a 4 star as opposed to 5 because our waiter was on the ruder side. Unfortunately, I do not remember his name. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the place!

    I caught up with a dear friend last week at Seito Sushi. I have to say, I forgot for a quick moment that I was in Central Florida, and was pretty impressed with this place! The interior is chic and pleasing to the eye, and there are a wide variety of seating options to choose from. We were promptly seated with no reservation, and had drinks and edamame on the table in just a few minutes. We ordered the Godzilla, Mango Tango, and Ichiban rolls and thoroughly enjoyed each! The Mango Tango was the most interesting for me - putting a sweet twist on sushi is quite a lovely idea! The sushi was very craftfully presented - the panko from the Ichiban was served on the side (a nice touch when sharing in a group with varying preferences). The other rolls all had a special sauce or garnish on the plate, which nicely enhanced the flavors of each. The service was great - their waitstaff clearly works together to keep guests happy! Our server was very friendly and efficient. When we were given our menus, we were told that there was another simpler sushi menu that exists, but that they ran out of copies of it that night. Our server gave us a couple of examples of more simple rolls that we could order. While I appreciated his accommodating the restaurant "running out of sushi lists", I think it's a little odd that a sushi restaurant would run out of their sushi list... and not have a backup plan in order. The gourmet rolls listed on the regular menu were really delicious - and totally my cup of tea - but if I were a good ol' California roll kind of person, I might be disappointed if I couldn't browse over some less intimidating choices. Overall, Seito was a great experience. The sushi was creative, fresh, and very tasty. The excellent service added to the quality of the experience, which I'll be sure to share with my Orlandoan friends! Also, for those fellow Diet Coke enthusiasts, the fountain DC here was phenomenal.

    My favorite place to get sushi in Orlando. My favorite is the spicy lobster roll but almost anything you get is good. My other favorite order is the bulgogi. Normal service, little trendy semi-upscale interior. There are a million places to get sushi in Orlando but don't waste your time going anywhere else. All three orlando locations have the same menu and they are consistent as far as taste.

    I wanted to love Seito, especially this location, but I just like it. Unfortunately, what I like is not their sushi. It's not bad, it's just meh. I like their happy hour (5-7 daily). It includes various martinis, wines, beers, etc. I also like various items of their appetizer (small plates) menu. The snapper carpaccio is very fresh and tasty. I loved the shrimp dumplings. They are different but delicious. The dumpling melts in your mouth. And the beef negimaki which is asparagus, carrots and green onions wrapped with a thin sliced steak and served with teriyaki sauce. The sushi rolls are just ok. I love the idea of sitting outside and having a few appetizers while drinking a cucumber martini (Yes! They have one! It's on the sweet side but decent).

    Before even stepping in to Seito Sushi, I have to admit that I did a little research on the various sushi places around Orlando. After wanting sushi for quite a while, I do have to say that Seito Sushi satisfied our craving. Located in Baldwin Park, Seito Sushi is a modern, upscale restaurant that still has very affordable rolls and specialty rolls of sushi, along with bento boxes and all of the staple Japanese foods as well (chicken teriyaki, etc). We decided to go with the fanciest roll on the menu, the Distinguished Gentleman, as well as a classic Salmon & Cream Cheese roll. Our food was delicious, and honestly the sushi was light enough that it really made me want to try one of the desserts, which included red bean or green tea ice cream, or even tempura ice cream. The other thing I enjoyed while dining here was the good service. Our waitress was patient when it took us a while to decide on which rolls we wanted to try, and got us anything we needed right away. My one word to the wise, however, would be to either arrive to Seito Sushi early or even make a reservation in advance because typically (especially on a Friday or Saturday night) there is usually a wait for a table, even if it is just a ten-fifteen minute wait. Although there are outside dining tables in addition to inside tables, we all know that the way the weather is in Orlando, eating outside typically isn't the best choice. Also, the parking situation in downtown Baldwin Park can be less than ideal, with parallel street parking (hint: drive around the corner and look for the open parking lot area in the back of Baldwin park). But all in all, I definitely think that my partner in crime and I concur on the fact that we will definitely be dining at Seito Sushi again in the near future. And hopefully, I can get my dessert next time.

    This place was decent, I'm not sure what the rave reviews are about as far as best sushi in FL. For Orlando its probably very good. The food was decent, basically what you would get at any Sushi restaurant. The decor inside was nicer and seems to try and attract an upper scale crowd. What makes this place good in the pretty area where its located. The service was slow, for a weekday afternoon and only a few customers outside.

    I came to seito to take my friend here for her birthday. From start to finish, including the cocktails, appetizers, entrees and desserts, everything was exceptional. The service was good, our waiter was knowledgeable about the ingredients on the menu and answered all our questions with detail. After hearing about this place I decided to take her for the first time not knowing what to expect, and after the whole experience I was extremely impressed with the food and service. This restaurant made an ever lasting first impression. Well done to management and staff. I recommend the tempura cheesecake for dessert, and for cocktails I recommend their unique "pear", additionally their manhattan was made well on point, I think also because I was thirsty. This place will definitely see me more often.

    Great happy hour! $5 martinis were excellent. We had the seaweed salad, wahoo roll, lobster roll and the beef app (amazing)! The service was excellent and they had brown rice for our rolls that was really good. Think I found our new sushi spot!

    Baldwin Park's Seito location is nothing like Winter Park's from the appearance. This joint is nice (not that Winter Park's is shabby). On my first visit here, I tried some masago (fish egg), which I had first tried for the first time a week earlier at Mikado, and some snapper and yellowtail sashimi. Two rolls completed the meal, the Venus roll (shrimp tempura and krab) and the signature Seito roll, consisting of two kinds of tuna, salmon and crab, but with no rice -- instead, it was wrapped in sliced cucumber. It was imaginative and refreshing on one of the hottest days of the year, but not something I would order again. The wine seemed overpriced for its quality, and for such a classy restaurant, the napkins (paper) were pretty flimsy. Also I was seated in a booth which caused an ache in my back. And when the bill arrived, it was about 20% higher than I usually pay for a sushi lunch. Those are the negatives. It seems that in spite of the beautiful atmosphere, I wasn't smitten by this Seito location, but I'm willing to give it and the others another try.

    Seito Sushi is pretty decent in terms of Sushi in Orlando. Sadly, it's not the best sushi I've ever had, but for Orlando it is very good! The ambiance is more modern and very much date-appropriate. The Baldwin Park area is great as well, and the restaurant is near a large parking lot. It can be a little bit loud sometimes. We started out with some garlic edamame-- it was... edamame. Pretty hard to mess up! The sushi is pretty delicious and there is a nice selection of rolls. I found that there were a few sushi "staples" that I have found at many other restaurants that were not present on the Seito menu, but that's ok, because there are so many delicious things to choose from! Their spicy tuna roll was very fresh-- I enjoyed it, but it does have spicy mayo on it for those who are not a fan. We also got a Wahoo! (sp?) roll to try because it looked interesting (it was baked though)-- it was pretty good, though I think I would have preferred raw fish instead of the cooked. My taster-in-crime got a Godzilla roll and really liked it-- I'm not a fan of shrimp, so I did not sample. I'm looking forward to going back and trying more of the rolls-- there were quite a few I was trying to decide between. According to the server, the number of pieces in the rolls depends on which roll you get, though all of ours were 8 pieces. As far as the service goes, it was inconsistent. At first, the service was excellent-- our server was very friendly and funny. However, I guess he took a break at some point because in the middle of our meal we found ourselves without any beverages and waiting a while for the check. Speaking of the check, Seito is very expensive. I have been to a number of sushi restaurants where a spicy tuna roll was around $5, but at Seito, it was $7. I realize it's sushi and it's supposed to be expensive, but I feel like it is marked up a little bit for Orlando prices. That being said, the overall experience was a good one. The food was very tasty and the ambiance was great. I will be returning to try out more of their signature rolls and maybe some of their non-sushi offerings, too (they do have a full menu)! Food: 4.5/5 Atmosphere: 4/5 Service: 3.5/5 Value: 2/5

    Great sushi spot and 30-something hangout. If coming on the weekend, expect a wait or make reservations...or hang out at the bar while waiting (twisting your arm). The fish was fresh and the veggie tempura was great. This is a fun little spot.

    Best Sushi in Orlando! No doubt! I eat out about 5 times a week and this place is are favorite...great happy hour drink specials...wish they had sushi happy hour....I have eaten here over 100 times and yet to have a bad experience. The owner is Jason and he is always trying to make the place better.

    I often go out for sushi and this has to be one of my favorites. I went with a large group of colleagues and we sat on the patio because the weather was nice. Our server turned a great meal into something truly special. We got a boat for four... A LOT of food. On top of that we ordered two feature apps and some extra rolls. I typically enjoy rolls more then the fish but this place made the raw fish so fresh... so tasty... so amazing. The snapper was one of my favorites. Order the fried cheesecake "or something similar to that". It was awesome!! MUST EAT when in Orlando.

  • Angela S.

    Service was a little slow, that I don't mind. Rating it down because of sushi vs price. For the rolls they offer their prices are too high. These rolls elsewhere are easily cheaper and depending where, taste better. Not my favorite. It seems no sushi restaurant will ever match my favorite. Didn't impress, won't be back.

    MUCH better since they got rid of that surely bartender that just leaned against the counter and acted like he was doing people a favor to get them a drink. Plus they have hired more pretty girls. Few too many male serves for a while, was starting to wonder about the place. Food always excellent though. Glad to see service is better, will dine-in more often now instead of take-out.

    Just imagine. Tiny little brunette walks into a fancy sushi bar by herself and asks for a table of 1. No, make that sushi bar for 1. Either way you get the picture. Po' lil tink tink. So I sit down and order. Waitress is quick, efficient, friendly enough for my taste. Unfiltered sake? The best. Warm edamame, also delicious. And then out came my Mexican roll. I'm not a picky sushi eater, mind you, but let's call a spade a spade. This was low quality. The rolls were falling apart, and the shrimp was not fantastic. You could tell they tried to fill in the gaps with an excess of cream cheese and avocado. Despite my over-service of delicious unfiltered sake, I could taste what I was not getting. Recap: No matter how much sake you drink, this place doesn't have to do their job to fill up the place, they just have to show up. I prefer Fuji on Lee Rd any day of the week.

    Great rolls, inventive, fresh and delicious. I'm a total sushi snob and this place was great. An impressive selection of traditional, signature, spicy, raw and non-raw rolls. We had almost an hour drive coming here given traffic that night but we'd all do it again in a heartbeat just for the sushi (oh I can taste it now). But wait there's more.... The sake menu is extensive compared to regular Japanese restauarants, not the largest I've ever seen but very adequte and extremely well chosen and described in the menu. I had the unfiltered sake, it was served in uber cool cone cups floating in colored water with ice. (nicely done except I kept dripping the water under the cup over the table...) The ambience is cool, trendy, spacious. However, I must take off a star for the service. I would like to take 2, even 3 stars off but the food and sake was too good. Our waitress was cold, hard to find, had that annoying fake smile on that made me feel like she hates customers. Our food took forever, I typically wouldn't mind but we had 2 kids with us and I asked for their teriyaki to be served first. Nothing came, I wanted to ask but our waitress was nowhere to be found (smoking out back? talking to her boyfriend?) I asked the maitre d', other waiters, help help the kids are starving, have been waiting for half an hour, but alas no one could help, "I'll ask your waitress they all said!" uh, thanks... When she did show up, she smiled in her annoying way and said "you know, I do have other tables to serve, not just you!". Oh yes, the sushi is that good.

    I've been pretty disappointed with Orlando's sushi selection lately so I was a little skeptical that Seito Sushi was going to be a disappointment as well. I was definitely SO wrong. This place = awesome. Our waitress was great - she was very attentive to our needs that night, making sure our drinks were full, and asking if we needed anything. I got the Kani Su roll which was krab, masago, & avocado wrapped in cucumber. I am a HUGE fan of sushi wrapped in cucumber but I don't find it many places. Let me tell you, it was amazing. I also enjoy the cucumber rolls because without the rice they are on the lighter side so I don't ever feel guilty ordering an additional rice sushi roll =) With that being said, I also got the spicy tuna roll which was great too. Fish was very fresh...basic roll but one of my favorites. Overall, I was very pleased with my experience at Seito sushi. I cannot wait to go back and try other items on the menu!

    Incredible meal. Sat on the patio when the weather was cool. Our table ordered Miso, Kim Chi, Sunomono, Saba, Toro, Crunchy Shrimp Roll, Polly Roll, Torchamaki Roll, Creme Brule. All of it was very fresh and prepared nicely. Cool presentation skills shown by the Sushi Chef and great taste. Looking forward to going back and writing a more detailed review.

    As I've mentioned before, I love Seito for the food, ambiance and everything but when we went there for dinner tonight, the service was terrible - our party of three had to flag down waiters/waitresses to get our waitress's attention. If you're a fan of Seito's dinner bento boxes, I have bad news: they discontinued this amazing deal.

    I went here for lunch with some coworkers. I ordered the Bento Box and when it came to the table they were all looking in awe! It had a variety of items for a reasonable price. And, everything tasted great. At first I thought I couldn't eat it all, but once I started I couldn't stop. I do not eat seafood, so I ordered the chicken and they were able to substitute one of the seafood egg rolls for a non-seafood item. I am definitely looking forward to going back for the Bento Box again.

    Loved it!! So good. Classy but not too fancy! I had a great dinner - chicken tempura roll and asparagus roll. Had a good time. Awesome waiters - Makai. Nice corner spot in Baldwin park with lots of outdoor seating. Inside the tables were pretty close too each other - so you kinda were in peoples business. Beautiful decorative lighting throughout and elegant decor. I will def. be going back again!

    This is a tough review to write. I've been to Seito Sushi (both the Baldwin Park and the Winter Park locations) numerous times, and if there's one thing that's consistent, it's the inconsistencies... The place looks great, especially the Baldwin Park location after their remodel. Very hip, clean vibe with a decent sized dining room and a large "lounge" area (empty most times I've been there). The service, like many things, is hit or miss. It seems, oddly enough, I get better service when the place is busy than when it's empty. Some of the staff are great, friendly, informative. Others are robotic. The food is spotty too. Sometimes it's great, other times it's mediocre at best. I've ordered the same item probably over a dozen times, Tofu Teriyaki. I don't think it's been prepared the same one time. Every single time it's presented differently, the sauce tastes different, even the plate is different. The last time I went the sauce was almost flavorless and the vegetables were undercooked. No... that's not right. It's more like they held them over the pan for a second. I don't mind a raw green pepper, but raw onions are not something I like to pay for. Like many of the places in Baldwin Park, Seito has somewhat of a "captured market". There simply aren't a lot of choices, and like most of the restaurants in Baldwin Park it seems service and quality are set at a minimum since they know people will be coming in anyway. I don't mean to sound like I'm slamming the place, overall I really like it and I WILL return, but I just wish they could hammer out better consistency on the menu and keep hiring the good waitstaff and leave the bad ones out.

    They have uni! Seito is a lovely, modern sushi restaurant located in Baldwin Park, just next door to Uptown Wine Bar. You have the option of sitting either at the sushi bar, the cocktail bar, outdoors, or at one of the numerous dining tables indoors. The last time I came in I ordered a Velvet Devil Merlot (outstanding, a little smoky, try it!) with two pieces of uni and the saigon roll, both of which were delicious and beautifully prepared. The young lady who waited on me was very friendly and chatted with me about the wine and sushi offerings, and was all around pleasant and helpful. I highly recommend this place for its location, atmosphere, food and friendly service. Bring a date or a friend, they'll love it.

    My taller half and I were looking for a place within biking distance from Audubon Park. We found this place over three years ago and we immediately were hooked. We went every weekend and even started bringing the furry kid and taking advantage of the outdoor dining. Even though we don't live close anymore, this is still the only sushi joint that we frequent. It's a 20+ minute drive, but one that we're willing to make. The service is always impeccable, the drinks are stiff and creative, the rolls are inventive and well balanced. The managers (Jason & Sue) are always very friendly and take the time out to say hello, even when they are slammed. This is one of our favorite places to bring family, friends and co-workers when we want a fun night out or when we want a romantic place for just the two (or three) of us.

    So I have been actually going to Seito since January and it was FANTASTIC. I had stopped eating in Baldwin Park for a bit, but recently came back to the area about a week ago. Unfortunately, the quality of sushi there is lacking. I genuinely think that in the 3 months I had not gone, they hired a new sushi chef and unfortunately his style isn't something I'm used to. I'm honestly not sure if I will be back again for a while. Maybe at that point they'll switch back to their old sushi chef?

    I loved it! Great selection of non-traditional sushi for those who aren't into the raw stuff lol... Sweet heart roll, godizlla roll and rainbow roll are my favorite. They also have good bento box selections and wine.... Very pretty atmosphere, feels newage/trendy... Can get very busy/noisy during certain hours but it's also located in a very tight nit upscale community..... I don't live in that area but it's great to visit, get some sushi and take a walk down their shopping strip...

    Terrible food, fish was not fresh, it is the second time we when there. It was a business lunch, my client picked. The waitress has to leave early so before she brought the main dish, she asked if we want to order desert otherwise she will bring the bill....this was before we even had the meal. I returned my roll because the eal had Avery bad taste. TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE FOR SECOND TIME....no more chances for this place. Two miles from seito is SUSHI's LOLA, excellent food and service and way better place. Edy B.

    We went to Seito for a late lunch and ordered two bento boxes, one salmon teriyaki and one chicken teriyaki. They included miso soup, 3 potstickers, salad with ginger dressing, California roll, steamed rice and the teriyaki with vegetables. Everything was perfectly prepared, fresh and flavorful. The service was also impeccable. We also enjoyed the ambience and everything was very clean. We have missed having Seito in Winter Park and were delighted to be able to enjoy their food again in Baldwin Park. It was worth the drive over.

    Seito Sushi is the jam! I've been to the Winter park location, and was somewhat impressed. Today we went to the Baldwin Park location, and I was pleasantly surprised... it is simply gorgeous. It's a feast for the eyes I tell you! Like a fine hotel dining room. Everything I tasted was a knockout. I chose the Bento Box with Hot 'n Spicy Pork. It came a generous portion of pork and sauteed onions, rice, 3 fried dumplings, Miso soup, Ginger Salad, and a 1/2 order of California roll. Plenty of food for around $9! I also tried the Korean short ribs, Coconut shrimp, Bonzai roll, and Edamame. So good all the way around... The seating is well thought out. There are different sections, which creates dimension and ambience. Plenty of outdoor seating too, in view of the lake. Ultra-lounge music plays over the sound system. Service was very attentive. Seito is now tied with Amura for my favorite Japanese restaurant in town. Highly recommended!

    I was visiting Orlando and my friend said this was her favorite sushi restaurant in town. You know what? She was right! I wish this place was around when I use to live here. The location is very convenient with lots of parking available for a busy night. I love the interior decor. It's very modern with lots of window seats to enjoy the view. They have patio seating as well, but it was raining when I went. I asked for a booth by the window and the hostess sat me immediately. My friend and I ordered the Fried Kim Chi balls and Beef Negi Maki for starters. The rice balls were crispy and had great flavor.. Just like the Korean style kim chi fried rice. The beef negi maki was satisfactory, but nothing special. The dish is thinly sliced beef wrapped around asparagus and carrots or gobo (I couldn't tell which one it was) and teriyaki sauce. The pieces were a bit too big for one bite, slightly tough to bite into. We also ordered unagi and salmon along with the Godzilla and Wahooo roll. The rolls were fatastic!! I like my rolls spicy and crispy. We also had two happy hour drinks, $4 each. Overall, the food tasted great, the service was quick and attentive. Our bill came out to $64 before tip and it was well worth it. I'll come here again when I visit Orlando!

    One word: Torchamaki. I've been saying for quite some time now that Seito is my favorite sushi restaurant in town. It's not overly authentic, but I like my sushi to be, well, fun. I have no problem experimenting with new sauces or even *gasp* fruit on/in my rolls. So if you're a sushi snob, you might want to stop reading. The last time I was at the Seito in Baldwin Park, I had a great honor bestowed upon me. It was over the holidays, and my brother and sister (visiting from Houston) and I stopped by for a quick dinner. We were seated in the newly expanded portion of the restaurant, and then were told by our server that we were the first customers to eat the booth we were occupying! So, this entry is long overdue. My favorite roll is the Torchamaki. The roll is filled with a spicy crawfish salad and topped with a thin slice of white fish, which is then "torched". If you're close enough to the sushi bar, you will know when this roll is just about done: you can literally smell the fish blackening. This roll is so rich in flavors that personally I can only eat two or three pieces. It's best balanced out with a light roll! A light alternative is the Kani Su roll. It has it's own uniqueness: crab (or should I say, Krab?) wrapped in thinly sliced cucumber with a light sunomono sauce (similar to a light vinaigrette). This roll is almost like a palate cleanser. For those of us who don't enjoy ginger. My other favorites are the Popeye roll: fresh spinach, shrimp and crab wrapped in rice paper and served with an eel sauce as well as the Sweetheart roll: coconut shrimp, mango, cream cheese, apricot glaze and eel sauce (it literally tastes like the beach!). I've been to other Seito locations in town, but Baldwin is my favorite. The restaurant is comfortable and hip with a big city feel. I've made a pretty important decision in my current "Good Luck Chuck" status: I will never take a first date to Seito ever again. Or anyone I haven't been dating for more than two months, for that matter. I'm done with gazing into a stranger's eyes and seeing them light up as they taste the Torchamaki for the first time. Seriously, this roll is so good that deserves a bit more respect!

    I ended up here by accident, but I'm glad I did. I was in Baldwin Park early Monday afternoon and was suddenly starving. After careful evaluation, consisting of finding the only parking spot in Baldwin Park, I wandered into SS. Uh oh. Looks chic and modern. I went in and tried to peek at the menu, keeping my weight on my back foot so I could quickly escape. Too late, and before I knew it, I was politely seated and given a menu. Hey, this is not that expensive for a classy joint! I like sushi, most of it, but I can never remember what I don't like. They had Bento boxes, which I generally love, for the variety and volume. Most were only $10 with a few at $12. I chose the shortribs. All the boxes come with (I think) a bowl of miso soup, crispy salad, a few California rolls, and three delicately fried pot-stickers. Everything was very good. The shortribs were sweet-tasty and tender and the portion was generous. I think I would have preferred a little more flavor complexity than just the sweetness. Most importantly, I had the nicest and most gorgeous waitress, Nicole. She's the one that looks like a ballet star.

    Hands down, my favorite spot for sushi in Orlando. My 60+ yr old parents love the sushi here... that's saying something. The happy hour is really good, the drink specials keep growing. Tonight I had a $5 pineapple mojito, it was very tasty. Not too sweet, and just the right amount of mint. Some of my favorite rolls... The voodoo\ torchimaki (crawfish with or without blow torched white fish on top) The sunset (lemon and salmon..yum!) The kani su (krab wrapped in cucumber!) The sweetheart (coconut shrimp!) If sushi isn't in your playlist, there are still some really good options. The udon noodle bowl and tempura chicken are also delicious. Love you, Seito!

    This is one of my favorite sushi restaurants. The sushi is very fresh and the rolls are delish. A few of my favorites are the Godzilla Roll, Sweetheart Roll, and always the Rainbow Roll. I love that they offer the option for brown rice. If you are in the mood for an entree, the Ahi tuna dinner is delicious. The Kahlua cake dessert is sinfully decadent. The decor and ambiance are chic and trendy. They have a wonderful wine selection as well.

    Even with low expectations, this place continues to disappoint me. I think the location is great, if you like the Baldwin Park type of thing. However, the food is comparable to Publix sushi. The maki rolls are small and unappetizing. The bento boxes are mediocre at best. The Korean Chirashi was okay, but for $19, lack of flavor cannot be replaced with a giant fishbowl size servings. Seito cannot compete with the likes of Fuji on Lee Rd and Amura.

  • Sierra A.

    WOW! I am so disappointed with the changes that have occurred recently at seito. The menu has been reduced to practically nothing. They got rid of their only roll that had yellowtail, the Polly, and their full eel rolls like the dragon skin. So now your choices are pretty much shrimp or shrimp? I used to rotate between here and Nagoya in Winter Springs for the great variety of rolls each sushi restaurant offered, looks like I may just have to stick to Nagoya now...please bring back the old menu seito.

    Seito is a nice sushi spot in the heard of Baldwin Park. I stopped in today to check out their lunch menu. Given the location and the stylish decor, I was quite surprised that the two of us ate for just over $20. The fish was fresh and tasty. I have seen some reviews that state how busy this place is, but that certainly wasn't the case today. I don't know if it was an off day, or if lunch is usually a slow time for them but it was fairly empty today. I will certainly come back for lunch and I look forward to checking out the dinner menu on a future trip as well.

    Gave it another couple of chances - ordering ahead seems to be the key. The last couple of times I've had lunch here, we've been served quickly and been able to get the check quickly as well. We order in time to have it ready when we arrive, and it works swimmingly. My new favorite is the Tuna 3-way - tuna nigiri, spicy tuna roll, and tuna tataki hit the spot, and all the right tastebuds. I also confess to enjoying the voodoo roll, but I think that's because I miss everything-crawfish from New Orleans menus.

    I've been to Seito Sushi in Baldwin Park several times, and have never been disappointed in the food. The atmosphere is upscale, modern and beautiful. While it definitely is the kind of place for a special event kind of meal, you don't have to be dressed up to go there. In other words, it's great food and great atmosphere, without a snobby attitude. My favorite roll, hands-down, is the Torchimaki. It's a roll that includes crawfish, asparagus, whitefish and spicy mayo, but what makes it different is that the top of the roll is torched so it has a grilled flavor. Hard to describe, but incredibly delicious. A server recommended it, and I will be forever grateful to her. I would also recommend the kobe beef and tuna carpaccio appetizers. The kobe isn't always on the menu, but they've always had it when we requested it. Cocktails aren't cheap but they're strong. The service is mostly good, and like another Yelper pointed out, it seems like the busier it is, the better the service. I've also eaten at the Winter Park Village location, and while the food was good, the atmosphere there isn't nearly as nice as Baldwin Park. My other complaint about that location is that they have been known to clean while there are diners present, and nobody wants to smell ammonia and cleaning products while eating. Baldwin Park Seito Sushi is some of the best sushi in Orlando, and definitely one with a great atmosphere.

    This is my fav sushi place in Orlando & today I have discovered their lunch bento boxes. Ive never ever had a bad experience here. Food is always phenomenal & service is always good. Prices seem worth it, to me. I never knew they had a lunch menu, but it is now my new fav lunch spot! I love meals that include variety & that is def what I got in this bento box: veggie tempura (or meats if you prefer) a side of rice, best miso soup ever, a Ginger salad, a California roll & yummy beef dumplings! All for $8. Um, yeahhh! I'm not a vegetarian but their veggie tempura is my fav meal of all. I tried their winterpark location & it doesn't come close to Baldwin. Baldwin: best of the best. Winterpark: worst of the worst. Hard to believe their the same chain. A bonsai martini tops off the experience :)

    This is one of my favorite sushi places and I am especially fond of this location. The décor is more updated than that of Winter Park Village and the restaurant layout is much better as well. My favorites are the insanity and spicy volcano roll. The sushi is always very fresh, flavorful and overall yummy. When I come, I almost always have the sushi but have dined with others that tried the teriyaki and were very happy with their meal.

    This is one of those really weird one's to review. Several reviewers wrote: "Hands down, my favorite spot for sushi in Orlando." -- so, we were keen to try it. No doubt, their vast selection of traditional and special rolls are pretty phenomenal. The fish was fresh and beautifully textured. The Saigon roll was something completely different, and I'd highly recommend it. Overall, we were really very happy with the sushi, and I should preface that by saying, we eat a LOT of sushi in different places, so it's not lightly that I say this is a great place for fresh fish served in some pretty interesting and innovative ways. The sake selection is the best I've seen in a while. We had the unfiltered Snow Maiden from Kyoto, which was great. Even the decor and ambience was nice for a fairly large restaurant. Tastefully done, modern, and loud but still possible to have a conversation. ...but the service, oh my the service! Our server Ayu was extremely over-tasked and as a result it took us 20 minutes just to get her attention to order, never mind actually waiting for the food. Maybe I've lived in Asia too long and actually expect some sense of hospitality, respect and servitude. But not here, everything took forever and was delivered to the table in a jumble. When they had no milk for coffee there was no apology of any sort just a shrug. Am I being too harsh? I don't think so. It could have been a fantastic night with fantastic food, instead we walked away thinking what a shame it was they didn't take the trouble to serve their customers with the same care they serve their fish.

    I LOVE this place. They have a vast menu of Speciality Rolls and a pretty nice wine selection. I couldnt ask for more. The Chicken Yakisoba was really tasty. If you want a Roll, the T.N.T Crunch Roll was wonderful. Actually, I havent had a Roll I disliked there yet!

    Gotta say that their new addition (bar & more tables) is awesome!! Jason is doing an amazing job of running this place... every time I go they are PACKED! I LOVE it!! My favorite go-to sushi place! Easy, convenient, nice people, comfy, and always yummy! Also, I had dessert here for the first time last night... Chocolate Kahlua Cake with ice cream... Yuummm! The cake was warm and the ice cream tasted homemade! Still love the Polly Roll! So glad I tried it! I've always been a little weary of sushi rolls that have jalapenos, but it is SO tasty! And I usually get my trusty Ultimate Spicy Tuna Roll, as well. And yummm hot sake!

    Holy crap! I looked down into the huge bowl that awaited for me below: a generous mixture of fresh romaine lettuce and salad leaves, luscious morsels of sashimi: tuna, salmon, white octopus, yellowtail and more, orange masago fish eggs sprinkled on top a bed of sushi rice. The Spicy Korean Chirashi bowl had just been whisked to my table and positioned in front of me as if challenging me to defeat it. The bowl was gigantic, a traditionally Japanese dish with a Korean spicy red pepper paste sauce to mix with on the side. The spicy korean chirashi bowl melded two of my favorite cuisines together into a delectable and scrumptious dinner masterpiece. I was glad that my friends chose Seito's Sushi at Baldwin Park for tonight's occasion. for more on this review please check out my blog tastychomps.blogspot.com…

    There aren't very many good restaurants that serves sushi or bento boxes for lunch but I have to say, Seito Sushi def. takes the prize. It's a great place to enjoy great food and be with good friends and family in a beautifully decorated environment. I always meet my mom here for lunch when she comes into town and afterwards we go walk around Baldwin Park. It's awesome! I recommend the lemon semifreddo for dessert; it's to die for!

    After posting my earlier review, I received a really nice note from the owner pointing out that he offers more traditional nigri sushi and sashimi. I definitely plan to return and try his items from that part of the menu. This is a very popular place in BP, and it's great that he offers what many of his customers want.

    Every time I've been here it's been better than the previous time. I'd say the service is no longer an issue, the signature rolls are pretty good, and I've never had an issue with the freshness of the fish as I have with Shari. The BBQ calamari is pretty good. It's really just normal calamari with sweet BBQ sauce, but I'm not complaining.

    The Voodoo roll rocks here! I don't get out here often, but I ALWAYS want that spicy crawfish as it is quite delicious. I love that this is a homegrown chain and I have generally had great service on every visit. I've been to this one and the one in Winter Park and both had fresh & tasty food and I felt very welcome. The only thing is that the rolls are kind of small -- at least the more reasonably-priced ones. I don't like to spend a lot on lunch, so I generally leave a bit hungry. But presentation is always spot on!

  • Jenn V.

    Yummy-- pretty standard stuff here. All of the usual rolls and they have LOTS of creative house rolls. Atmosphere is really nice. Lunch is a steal-- bento box with chicken teryaki, salad, miso soup, 3 gyoza and 1/2 a california roll for like $8 or $9. Awesome. We also had a tempura california and a soft shell crab roll and they were fabulous. The one thing I was a little disappointed about was the 1/2 california roll in the bento box. The pieces were small and the rice fell right off of them upon 'pick up'. Oh well-- it was still a good deal. I don't have a comparison for the Orlando area since it's the first place we've tried since moving here, but I will definitely go back.

    Was here for business this past week and a new co-worker offered to take the newbies out for sushi. This place is terrific. The food maybe a little slow coming out to you. However the sushi was fresh and they had some really interesting roll combinations. I heartily encourage all to try the Mexican roll. I was surprised how little wasabi they give you. It was fine. I'm just used to the Northeast where they punish you with wasabi helpings. I would surely come here again.

  • Dany C.

    I ordered the Spicy Volcano Roll & Beauty & Beast roll. They were both flavorful in both presentation and taste. The waiter was friendly and wait time wasn't long. The atmosphere is very trendy and upscale. Price isn't too bad for the amount of food you get and compared to other sushi establishments. This restaurant will appeal to crowds or those looking for a romantic setting as well. They also have outdoor seating for those wanting to enjoy the weather.

    I took a friend here last weekend and it was pretty OK. I have to admit, not my favorite sushi place I have ever been to, but it wasn't bad. We had tempura to start and that was really good. Then I got sushi and he got a plate of meat. His was really good. My sushi was definitely very fresh. All in all I would go again, but it's not my number one.

    Next to be reviewed on the Sushi list...Seito Sushi. Like many sushi places in town, Seito has the classic rolls and dishes with their own spin on things here and there. I've only dined here a few times, each time reluctant to branch outside of my usual order...rainbow and spider rolls with a few orders of salmon and white tuna sashimi. However, I will say that what I have tried was delicious and well done. Among their other dishes, the chicken and vegetable tempura platters are good choices. The batter is nice and crunchy with very little grease and the portions are enormous, enough to take home for seconds and thirds, depending on how hungry you are of course. The atmosphere is very relaxed, with little noise other than people talking around you and soft music playing in the background. This is a good place to go for a date, night on the town or with a group of friend. You can choose to sit inside at a booth, table or at one of the tables outside. I would recommend going for a table because the booths are not the most comfortable I've experienced and the table part does leave much room between you and the back of the seat. My server has always been efficient, friendly and good about keeping everyone happy. Prices are not cheap, which is typical of most sushi restaurants. However, their lunch specials are great and as long as you keep track of what you order the bill shouldn't be too bad. If you go with a group, I recommend that everyone order one or two rolls and share with the whole table that way you can all try something different. Variety adds spice to life. Overall, I don't frequent this place often because it's not close to my house, but it's not a bad place to venture off to every now and again.

  • Heide E.

    I always have a great experience at any location that Seito has. The sushi is fresh and made to order and the selection of sushi and variety is abundant. I really enjoy the Baldwin Park location and it is closest to my house. I really wish Baldwin park would have additional stores and boutiques to offer while walking around after sushi. This little neighborhood is clean and well manicured but it reminds me of a posh ghost town.

  • Tomstrocity S.

    They skimp on the ingredients and the presentation is lacking. I ordered a lobster roll, it's common to find sushi restaurants that serve their crab rolls with fake crab, but lobster! really fake lobster. What a shame. I can't imagine that crushed seafood in the shape of lobster would cost anymore than that of a crab roll, so I don't understand the justification for an increase in price. It's an expensive restaurant that doesn't provide the ingredients or the serve to justify it.

  • Bruce D.

    Must get the Bento box for lunch (every day) Love the sashimi, I get the chefs choice, and never have been disappointed. I promise you will like this place. My friends all love the Dragon rolls. Try it and yell at me if it is bad, but that will never happen.

  • Amy G.

    I've been quite a few times and always enjoy it. I want to branch out and try some of the meals instead of just getting sushi. I like the sweet potato tempura, sunset, lava, and torchimaki rolls. Just had the lychee & pomengrantini and thought it was good but had a slight taste of cough syrup to it. After the first sip I forgot about the cough syrup taste. If you have a dog you can sit outside, most of it is in the shade.

    THE place to go for sushi. We are in Baldwin Park, so it is also incredibly convenient. The waitstaff is fabulous... we go in maybe once a month, but the waiter last week simply walked up to us, smiled and said: "The Benton Lane?" Nice that he remembered. The sushi is great and comes out incredibly fast. If you want to take it easy, order your wine or cocktail and wait to order the food.... it's that fast. The ambiance is great... very contemporary, relaxed, and intimate. They have seating outdoors, as well, and it's great on a mild night to watch all the people on the avenue. Also a great place to watch some of the parades that Baldwin Park puts on, including the "Vespa" ride and especially the Christmas parade. BTW, the sushi "bar" is a great place to sit also, to watch the sushi chefs up close.

  • Nora H.

    I prefer this Seito location above the others in Central Florida (quiet off of the main street). Lunch on the patio is a standard must each month for us, plus it's easy on the wallet. The service is attentive, never annoying. I enjoy the seaweed salad with conch and a bulgogi beef bento box. Order a separate sushi side however (i.e. spicy tuna), as your california rolls in the bento leave you wondering what the hell happened.

    The food is not bad actually, but it's way too pricy (but reasonable in that area). Not a real traditional Japanese style, but the server and decoration are very fashion and neat. if you just want a light meal or talk to someone in business, this is not a bad choice.

    We are fans. This location is much better than the one in the Winter Park Village. It's bigger, it has a better layout, and has nicer furniture and decor. The overall ambiance is great and it's fun for everyone whether you are on a date or with a group. Seito Sushi has four locations in all and their website is organized nicely with details and menus for each. We'll have to try the other two locations in Celebration and Sandlake. FYI, the only location that is on Open Table and that takes reservations at all is the Sandlake location. We were the first ones of our group to show up so we hung out by the bar and had a drink. They have a pretty good happy hour that lasts until 7:00PM. It's a full bar with decent wine and beer to choose from. When our group finally got there, seven in all, we still had to wait about 20 minutes but it wasn't too bad. We just had another round of drinks and caught up with our friends while we waited. The food was good. Edamame, miso soup, spicy lobster roll, and the sunset roll were all really good. The summer of love roll was the only disappointing thing we ordered. The service was slow but expected because of the size of our group and it was a Friday night. All in all, Seito Sushi is good and we recommend trying it if you haven't.

    Awesome sushi in a hip atmosphere. Service has always been excellent and closely supervised so your sushi is perfect. We always ask for a new wine suggestion and as my husband loves wine - he has not been disappointed in their choices. The spicy selections are blended nicely w/o being hot or uncomfortable to eat. We love this restaurant - take a walk around baldwin park and stop at Seito's - you won't be disappointed!

    I'm in love with their sushi here. I have yet to try anything but their sushi, but judging from what other's plates look like I will definitely try something different next time. Y'all know from my previous reviews that I'm really big on environment and ambiance, and both locations I've visited (Baldwin Park & Turkey Lake) are both beautiful. They lose one star, however, as it takes FOREVER to get the food. We waited for close to an hour tonight just to get about 5 different rolls. Unacceptable, considering dinner for three was over $60.

    One of my favorites in Orlando! The sushi is great as are the bento boxes! I always have a hard time deciding. The lunch specials are fantastic! Great value. I truly love this place...the only criticism I have is that some of the servers could use some improvement. Overall they are satisfactory to good, but some could definitely be more attentive and customer service oriented.

    This fantastic review is based on today's lunch visit with my mom and her bf. However, Mom and I have eaten here at this branch of the local mini-chain (there are two others in addition to this one) Seito like, oh, about 20 times so I feel that all in all my review is pretty right-on. Anyhow, this time was about 1pm on a Monday (I tried to tell mom that you shouldn't eat seafood on Mondays as there's no fishing on Sunday, but I got the blank look from her and the annoyed "It'll be fine" from her better half). There are 5 tables outside - all were empty. From the looks of it, there were 3-4 tables inside with diners. - 1 Star - Inattentiveness to cleanliness. The table next to us was un-bused for over 20 minutes. Ick. The soy sauce bottle we were brought had a cilantro leaf adhered to the outside. Like - it had adhered when it was damp and now was dry and was REALLY glued on there. Like decoupage. But with less magazine clippings and more... herbs. - 1 Star - The waiter seemed like a nice guy so I feel bad slagging off on him, but really it was completely way too complex to order (um, he couldn't understand our orders, even though they were from the lunch menu, which only has about 9 choices and then bento boxes which are about, oh, 5) from him as we had to point and explain... A bit maddening. But then he brought... The wrong stuff. Sigh. Nice, but not all that on top of it. + 1 Star - Value. I think that most restaurants are overpriced in Orlando. Coming from LA, where salaries are higher, I am baffled that the prices in the land of Mickey are about the same as the land of LaLa. So to find a place where you can get a pretty nice meal for $10 is great! We had a steak teriyaki bento box, a California combo and a Deluxe sushi combo, plus a side Moyashi salad for $37 + tip (lunch includes one drink per person - a $2 value, more or less) + 1 Star - The sushi is very fresh and of good quality. I appreciate that the slices of sashimi were nice and thick - not the scrawny slices that often come up for lunch deals. My sashimi deluxe had some of the nicer fresh snapper I have had in a while. Three slices per fish - I think that they were: salmon, tuna, white tuna, snapper, and... a couple others. I ate them with alacrity. They were darn good. +1 Star - Free refills on soda! Okay, so maybe I secretly have a craving for Taco Bell and the freebies at the soda fountain, but I always feel that charging for what costs pretty much nada to the establishment is a rip. So it was nice that the waiter brought a pitcher to refill our sodas was... coolio. + 1/ -1 Star - At this particular location, parking is free and on the street. Which is great alot of the time as most of the time it's easy to come by. But then again some times (not this particular time mind you, so my neutral review...) it can be a nightmare to find a spot. Totally random. All in all, Seito is one of those "hey I want sushi" "oh, let's not drive far" "yeah, let's go that local place" "ok but I'm not showering or getting all fancy to go" "ok" "okay" places. Not a go-far-out-of-the-way places, but always dependable and pretty tasty. I have never had anything but a solid, if unimpressive experience here. And today was just like... every other day.

  • Holly L.

    Seito in Baldwin Park is my favorite for sushi in Orlando. The sushi is always fresh, the portions are generous and the infused saki is just what I want to go with my meal. Try the lychee infused saki. The TNT and Popeye rolls are my fall back when I can't make up my mind, but most of the selections I've tried were well prepared and presented. The service can be just a little slow when they are busy, but not so much that it makes the experience unpleasant. It's one of the best places in town to enjoy a nice meal outside as well.

    took my daughter and her roommates here on a friday night. it a great place to go if you like sushi and dont want to do the chain restaurant thing. it was crowded and we had to wait about 5 minutes or so. there are lots of tables, two with the floor lowered so you climb in..not sure the name of these...and a sushi bar. lots of room for lots of people. they also have outdoor seating which wasnt being used because of the cold. service was okay. you order by filling out a sheet and the rolls etc all come on one big platter for the table. my daughter said the seaweed salad was tasty. the vegetarian asparagus roll was said to be good as well. i had the tempura shrimp roll which rocked but i had to ask for more eel sauce. i didnt taste any or see much on the roll itself. we drank water and didnt have dessert.

    It is not often that I update a review for places and even more rare for me to then update a second time. I was very disappointed after recent menu changes (specifically lunch menu) which prompted my first updated review for one of my favorite spots. As you can tell from the review I was very disappointed and a after being a regular for lunches stopped frequenting the local eatery. I was reached out to by a manager who was very friendly and understood my concerns (it is nice to know that they keep an eye on the online opinions of the establishment) and so I started going here again mainly for dinner (because lets be honest this sushi is the best I have had in Orlando YUM). Today I stopped by for lunch and I was so pleased to see that they have updated the lunch menu to be more similar to the menu I loved in the past. They have several lunch specials which include miso soup, ginger salad, and an entree of your choice for $9 as well as sushi specials all reasonably priced. Today we had the bulgogi and shrimp curry along with our all time favorite ultimate spicy tuna roll (pretty spicy so be warned but delicious). Both meals were served fast and fresh and were very tasty. I am so happy to say that I will frequent this place for lunch again! Yay! :)

    No matter what, overtime we dine at Seito, we have a great experience. We like to sit at the bar, and the staff is always excellent. We never have to wait for a drink and they are always happy and full of knowledge of menu items. The atmosphere is very pretty and it's casual but fancy at the same time. We always bring out of town guests to Seito as well. Consistent great service and fresh, tasty, AWESOME food brings us back every time! :)

    Hands down the best restaurant in Baldwin Park. As far as the best Sushi in town, I feel like it's neck and neck with Amura but Seito has the edge for being in BP, and I want to support my hood - this place rocks! The ambiance is great, there are great saki offerings. Their happy hour is great - truly some of the best martinis I've had in Orlando...on to the food. Sushi is why I go here but they do have other offerings as well.... There is not one Sushi roll I've had here that I don't like. I was sad they took off the "Winter Park Village" Roll from the menu - but if you ask, they will make it for you! My husband and I try to go here at least once every couple of months not only for the amazing food, but to support the local business. One other thing to add, the music they pipe in is incredible!! I need to find where they get their music from.

    I wish I could remember all the rolls we had! Besides being visually stunning, they were all delicious. From spicy to sweet, we had rolls to please everyone at out table. The two that stood out the most were the Distinguished Gentleman and the Beauty and the Beast. We also ordered their take on Poutine, but I think it could've used some more gravy. Service was excellent! Would definitely come back if I'm back in town.

The sushi here is fresh and all of the rolls are amazing! Go to the Baldwin Park location and get the: -Beef Gyoza -Tuna Tataki -Kodiak Roll -The Distinguished Gentleman Roll Also, the place is gorgeous and very modern chic inside. Decor is beautiful. The ambiance is great for a date night and even a small group of friends.

    I love this place and have for years but just had to give a shout out to their new bar bites menu available only at the bar during happy hour. We got the salmon poke which had a hint of grapefruit flavor and these awesome fried rice paper chips to scoop up the salmon, so fun to eat! Very inventive, creative and delicious affordable snack to help us drink faster :) thanks seito for coming out with this delightful addition. Also our service was amazing as usual, don't know his name at the bar but he was attentive and entertaining as well. If you haven't been do yourself a favor and check out the new menu, chef knows what he is doing!

    The lunch menu has been completely overhauled - three words: house-made ramen! Three different ramen options are available, all with fresh noodles and complex, divine broths. Gone are the pedestrian, generic tempuras and bento boxes of the past - the new lunch menu is novel and creative. And delicious! I absolutely love the Shoyu Ramen option, with amazing grilled chicken thigh meat, a perfectly soft-poached egg, and a savory, rich broth. I can't wait to try all three. Also delicious was the cucumber salad (featuring sea beans), the boa-buns, and the dumplings. The dumplings and buns apparently change daily, and were very good on my last visit.

    I met some friends here for Happy Hour at the bar. While I did try any of the drinks, they seemed to have a good selection of beers and martinis. The happy hour food was unfortunately not for me. 3 of the 4 items were spicy (and I don't do spice). So I decided to just order off the regular menu. I started with the clear broth soup. This was one of the best ones I've ever had! There were tiny crumbles of tempura in it that just added a crunch--so so good. I could easily have had a second bowl. I also ordered the shrimp tempura roll and the lobster crunch roll. The shrimp roll was just okay for me. There was something in there that tasted weird to me--something I'm not used to being in shrimp tempura rolls but I'm not sure what. The lobster crunch roll was amazing! I would definitely order it again. I'm not sure what I was expecting it to look like, but it wasn't this. It almost looked like strings of crabmeat. But it was definitely lobster. And the crunch with it just made it so good!

    I really love the ambience of this restaurant. The food here is always consistent and fresh. I am always looking for a place to have sushi for lunch. Seito sushi is one of my go to's for lunch with the girls. The restaurant is really tiny. They have a very reasonable price lunch menu including $9 lunches. I usually just order what I'm craving so it can be about $40 for my lunch.

    I can't say that I am sushi connoisseur, but I think Seito is really good with top notch service, too. The Miso soup came out first, and it was unlike any I ever had. This one had a lot of character taking on a smokey flavor. The Seaweed Salad was good but nothing special. For my meal, I had the Bul Go Gi (beef) dinner which was also very good. The Bul Go Gi came out as tender, coarsely sliced beef cooked with onions. It had a delicious flavor also taking on a smokey quality. Sushis are very creative with many of them containing avocado and quite a few spicy ones. All came with an explosion of flavors. We had the Corona Roll, the Mango Tango and the TNT Roll. Service was attentive and helpful without being overbearing. There are quite a few craft beers on the menu including a few local (Florida) ones. Quite a few people were drinking wine, so I assume the selection is also good. If you like sushi or would rather have just a Japanese style meal, give Seito a try!

    Everything I get here is beyond amazing. The sushi and meats are the freshest and local. I usually order the bulgogi dish with a couple sushi rolls on the side. The entrees are hot and delicious. Although the dress code seems to be more upscale, people can always order food to go or sit outside and enjoy passing pedestrians and beautiful sunny weather. I highly recommend this to everyone that is searching for top notch meals and a friendly atmosphere.

    I wish this place would stop changing all of the good menu items! Or at least when someone orders something warn them it's different. The beef negimaki used to be our FAVORITE appetizer, but now it's totally different and tastes awful! There is no longer a crunch to it, just mush. Please change the beef negimaki back to the previous recipe. We used to come here twice a week (live walking distance within the neighborhood), but now only come once a month and have been seeking out other local sushi restaurants. Every single one of my favorite rolls is gone, and when I ask if they can still make them I'm told no. Also, they will not make any substitutions. I asked for no shellfish on the sashimi platter (at dinner, not lunch) and was told they could not accommodate that. Seriously? This has never been a problem before?! On a positive note, the wine and drink menu is fantastic and service has always been great. This place used to be 5 stars and one of our favorite "go to" restaurants. Hopefully they will listen to all of the complaints about the new menu and changes, if this happens we will definitely start coming back more often again.

    Seito has a new menu for lunch and dinner. They have emphasized their stronger dishes and they have done away with some of the less commonly ordered items. I think the focused, smaller menus for lunch and dinner are better than the one large menu they used to have. With fewer items on the menu they can focus on achieving a higher quality dish with fresh ingredients and artful presentation. I like the ramen choices at lunch- thought the noodles were very good. Seito is by far the best restaurant in Baldwin Park- a great place to meet friends for drinks and a bite :)

    I've been to Seito at least 5 times. It is hands down my favorite sushi restaurant. I'll tell you why: 1. The sushi. Each roll is carefully constructed, distinct and consistently delicious. The "Distinguished Gentleman" is a must have. Other mentionables are their mexican inspired roll and the "Sweet heart", but you can't really go wrong it seems. 2. The ambience. I don't know who designed the interior of this place but they deserve an award. It is so modern and chic yet warm and inviting, zen, artful and asian with clean lines and relaxing natural colors. As a major plus the music they play is always on point. Softly in the background you will hear a blend of relevant and and hip sounds from indie to dance. 3. The Service: Polite intelligent service has been consistent. Knowledgeable wait staff always timely and attentive. One weekend we came 2 days in a row and contemplated going twice in a day.

    This was our "go to" lunch and occasional dinner spot for many years now. We'd always take family and friends here due to the great menu and atmosphere. Stopped by there today for lunch only to find out the bento boxes along with other items are no longer available on the newly revised lunch menu. That was unfortunate as we wound up leaving to find another place for lunch. I'm afraid until some of the items are brought back we will no longer be patronizing this establishment. Such a shame as we really enjoyed dining there.

    This was the first time I've eaten at Seito. I had heard mixed reviews over the last few years, but decided to give it a shot. It was meh. The service was incredibly slow. It wasn't very busy at all. We ordered two rolls - the Ichiban and Sunset rolls first. When the waiter finally came back we ordered a Seito roll. The first two arrived fairly quickly. I liked the Ichiban as long as I dipped it in the spicy mayo and eel sauce. The Sunset was fairly bland but too spicy for me at the same time. My boyfriend liked that one though with the ponzu sauce. We sat for a while before our last roll showed up. It was a cucumber wrap doused in vinegar which I was not expecting. The inside bits were good but I disliked the cucumber wrap. It took way too long to get our check. Overall it was just meh. Some of the food was good but I didn't like the majority.

    Family and I would come here at least once a month to enjoy the beautiful surroundings and delicious food. I also loved introducing it to friends when they visited. Today I came with my mother for a special one on one lunch and was surprised at how empty the restaurant was. I chalked it up to people travelling for the holiday, but realized it was likely due to the extensive changes to the lunch menu. No more bento boxes and a very limited offering of sushi. We ended up leavin g without ordering anything. The news has sent Shockwave through our family. Anyone have a recommendation for a good japanese restaurant?

    I went to Seito Sushi for a quick bite at the bar during happy hour. First, the staff was awesome! They were ready for suggestions and were very attentive. Because it was happy hour, I ordered a pomegranate martini which was delicious. i ordered the calamari which comes with the most YUMMMMMYYY BBQ sauce and dressing! Seriously! I almost licked my plate! For entrees you really can't go wrong with sushi-DUH! I tried the distinguished gentleman roll. What can I say, I'm a sucker for aioli. Other rolls that hit the spot for me is their TNT Crunch and Kodiak. (If you go to the location in Dr. Phillips try the Yellow Fever- my favorite roll from ANY sushi place I've tried!) Note that each location has a different menu. Overall, Dr. Phillip's location is larger and has more variety.

    This restaurant has a great atmosphere and very friendly staff members. My review includes a rating of 2 because of the menu. All menu items (besides salads and soups) have meat or meat products. It's rather upsetting that it's 2015 and people who create menus still don't include vegan/vegetarian options (there was 1, but it was very bland and I could not even have the sauce). The Chef and waiter were VERY accommodating, but whoever created the menu for this restaurant chain needs to be more open minded and realize that to please all palettes, one may want to consider 86ing the meat products.

    I have been a regular at this restaurant for a couple of years now. Have loved their sushi grand and other dishes. Today we went and learned that they removed the sushi grand from their menu as well as their fried cheesecake, a family favorite. Apparently they have a new executive chef. I hope they don't get too far away from what made them great which is simple, fresh and delicious Japanese food. As an ex-NYer, I've been to the Nobu restaurants and sometimes they end up being too specialized.

    I am not normally wanting sushi being a vegan. But this place could make me want too. Several types of sushi that fit my diet and everything my friends ordered they raved about all night. If you are fortunate enough to have Natalie as your waitress/server you are guaranteed to have a 5 star dining experience.

    A reliable good choice. I have been here for lunch on business meetings and the service is always prompt and very good! There is enough variety on the menu to Please anyone. I've also been here countless times with friends in both small and large groups. Great cocktails and accommodating to large parties and diets. Great ambiance for a swanky night out or casual dining with children.

    Good ambiance and a much nicer sushi place compared to most but sushi itself is mediocre and the price isn't justified. There are better ones for cheaper but it's a fun location.

    The lunch menu has been redesigned to appear as more a la carte than the previous version. The net effect is pricing out the locals working and studying in the area. Gone is the Sushi Combination for example. Sure was a good restaurant.

    Amazing sushi from people that know what they're doing! I went with a group of friends, who had been there before and know one of the sushi chefs. He basically asked us what we like (and don't like), and he proceeded to make us rolls based on our likes. I tried 6-7 different types of rolls and every single one of them was better than the previous roll. From the decor (very classy) to the staff (very professional) to the food (very impressive), I can't speak highly enough of this place! For anyone that is looking for serious sushi, THIS is the place to go in Orlando!

    Love the food here! My favorites are the bento boxes and the Kodiak sushi roll. Service is friendly and welcoming but slow at times (it is generally pretty busy, so I cant complain too much) The reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is because my mother was given a visibly dirty fork and plate. This is probably an isolated incident because it seems very clean otherwise, however, it was a turn off for us that day.

    Finally checked this place out for Happy Hour after hearing so many rave reviews about. They have a small menu of items(about 4) and cocktails on the Happy Hour Menu that runs from 5p-7p during the week (not sure about weekends). My girlfriends and I sat at the bar and placed our orders. I had the berrytini which was ok and definitely had a berry taste but almost in a cough medicine sort of way. Not sure I would order it again. Had one of the HH rolls which was a spicy tuna roll of some sort that was fried (didn't get the name and it's not on the online menu) and the lobster roll which was off the regular menu. I like spicy foods so I enjoyed the spicy tuna roll. To me, the lobster roll was sorta bland. They were huge rolls and generous with the lobster but more than enough for 1 person. Thankfully my friends helped me finish them as I think it's a major sin to waste such good food. My friend ordered the spicy chicken wings off the HH menu. Those were super yum. I would definitely get those again. Service was good for the most part. Only minor issue was that one of my friends placed an order to go for her husband and it took forever even after we finished eating. She finally had to flag down a waiter to ask about it. While it was a fun time and the food was tasty, I'm not sure my husband would be down for the expensive rolls and swanky setting. We will probably stick to our hole in the wall place in Winter Park.

    It had been a very long time since I had been to Seito's. This would be back when it was located in Winter Park. It was great then and I daresay that it's better now. They have great happy hour specials on drinks. This was my first time trying Ichiban Kirin, and they have it on tap, frosty, cold, delicious! They have a couple of food items as part of the happy hour specials but you have to sit at the bar where the seats are set up in a row in order to get it on it. It would be good if they extended it to anywhere you sit but that's just me. My friend ordered the Lobster crunch roll and it was a mixture of sweet, salty, crunchy just dancing in your mouth; amazing. I was of course hung up on the garlic lime edamame. What the heck do they put on those things? I was sucking the life out of those tasty green pods and I'm normally not that big into edamame in general but the seasoning took it to a whole new level! I also got to try the California B roll which comes with masago. They make excellent Sushi here, and I'm sure the other food is just as excellent judging from the smells wafting towards our table from the kitchen. Come during happy hour to get in on the good deals.
