I can't say how good Morimoto's is since we were only able to eat at their Street Food window (thanks to Hurricane Matthew) but I would have to chose Homecomin' just because I prefer Southern food. The shrimps and grits were some of the best I've had and the hummingbird cake was delicious!
It's the cake and drinks that's drawing me in lol

Morimoto's was just named best restaurant in Orlando. Victoria and Albert's was #2.

I'd do Morimoto Asia - just more special to me.

Been to both - would pick Art Smith (and have - been there twice to Morimoto once.)
Maybe we ordered wrong, but it was basically just very expensive Asian fare to us. No plans to go back anytime soon. Sake flight was interesting.

Both are good, I don't think you would be disappointed in either. My husband prefers Morimoto's, but not by that much, because he likes Asian food more than I do so he doesn't eat it much. I prefer the homestyle cooking of Homecomin' over the Asian food.
If you don't mind doing the walk up windows you could sample cuisine from both. Or you could go to the bars for both and order an appetizer at both.

Now thats a good idea! Maybe sit down @ homecoming and get a couple drinks and apps and have our official meal @ Morimoto

On Scott Joseph's Food Blog. I'm not sure how reputable that is.

Both are great meals. I second @Texas84 Morimoto is a higher end experience, and Homecomin' is more comfort foody. My DW prefers Homecomin', but I think she got suckered in by their drinks as much as anything else.
Don't think Homecomin' has a walk up window anymore. We asked a few weeks ago and were told they stopped the to-go menu in 2017. There is the outside bar, but it's not a to-go window like at Morimoto or Frontera.

Not eaten at Art Smith's place yet, but had his food when he was cooking up here in Tallahasse. Excellent. But not the type of cuisine at Homecoming.
Ate at Morimotos for the first time over MLK holiday. My food was excellent - get the ribs. The kids raved about their ramun duck soup.
But as @Texas84 said, two vastly different cuisines.
