The new Sushi Saint keeps the playful energy fans expect while expanding the menu and drink offerings.<\/p>\n<p>The Winter Park location sits between Soseki and the newly opened Perla\u2019s Pizza. Guests can expect hand rolls crafted to order, creative small plates and a curated sake and cocktail list designed to complement the seafood-centric menu.<\/p>\n<p>Reservations are now live as the restaurant settles into its new home.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.orlandoweekly.com\/orlando\/NewsletterSignup\/Page\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"
