Had lunch here. Everything was delicious and very fresh. The service was wonderful. Highly recommend the miso soup, it’s a cut above the rest & super flavorful. Tastes homemade. I also enjoyed the sushi and roll lunch combo (see photo) All of that delicious fresh sushi, dumplings & soup for 15. My friend had lunch portion of chicken teriyaki, it was also a large portion. I also really enjoyed the coconut water. Highly recommend!

Very good food and service in a casual setting. The sushi was some of the best I've had since being in Japan.

We come to Punta Gorda 8-10 weekends a year and eat out each time we visit. Amimoto has been our FAVORITE Asian restaurant in the area. The food is delicious and beautifully presented, even when ordered for takeout. And the restaurant has a wonderful atmosphere when dining in. Thai, Asian, Sushi... it's ALL DELICIOUS!!!

My wife and I eat here twice a week and bring friends when possible. It is always excellent and as others have said, presentation is excellent, service is kind and attentive, and food quality consistently fresh and tasty...especially the sushi offerings. I always eat sushi however my wife does not care for fish however there are many non-fish dishes that she loves.
