We dined at Sushi Sho Rexley for a special occasion, with expectations aligned to the stated price of approximately $198 per person before tax and service. Based solely on my personal experience, the evening did not align with what I associate with a high-end omakase restaurant. Upon arrival, there was a noticeable scent to me, and the overall setting felt informal and temporary rather than refined. Music played from a small portable speaker, and several visible items in the dining area gave me the impression of a non-permanent setup. During service, refills such as ginger were brought from basic plastic containers, which, to me, felt inconsistent with the premium positioning of the meal. When the nigiri course began, the fish appeared to be pre-sliced and assembled quickly rather than prepared and presented at the counter. For me personally, this reduced the sense of craftsmanship I typically expect in this format. From a flavor perspective, the dishes felt mild and uniform. Personally, none stood out in a way that justified the cost. The pacing felt fast, with little sense of a structured progression. The final bill for two guests, including one simple glass of wine, was approximately $440 before gratuity. Based on my experience and personal expectations, the value did not align with the price. This review reflects only my personal impressions and dining experience.
This was so lovely. My husband was super late because there was some kind of event in downtown St. Pete. So I would tell anyone who's trying to come here to figure out parking beforehand. But the staff was so polite and completely understanding - they even reserved the two dishes he missed so he could enjoy them afterwards, and the food (and sake pairing) was out of this world. Definitely an amazing experience and if my wallet allows it, I would love to go back!
Had very good dinner! We loved it. Very fresh fish, properly handled and served. Lots of flavor yet very simple. I would come back. Similar to traditional Omakase in Japan
Absolutely incredible experience! It's so good you will continue to think about it for hours after you go home. I went home, sat on the couch and wished I was still there while I was watching TV. Few restaurants have ever had that impact one me. Definitely a Michelin worthy experience. The only downside is that I don't think I will ever enjoy "typical" sushi nearly as much as I used to since the bar is now set so high.
Best sushi in Florida! My husband and I have had sushi in Japan and various states in the USA. We have found a lot of great locations. This is by far our favorite in the USA. The fish is not only fresh but meticulously crafted and served. We go 1-2 times per year and the experience is never quite the same, but always incredible. The communication barrier with some of the staff can be a slight challenge, but mostly the entire staff is friendly and helpful and, most importantly, very passionate about their work (art!). Yes, it’s expensive, but you get what you pay for :) thank you, Rexley and team, for being the culinary highlight of our year for each of last ~5 years! We will continue coming back to experience the amazing sushi you create!
