The third in a block-square eatery empire run by Nemo/Big Pink’s owners, this beyond-sushi bar is, simply, a class act. And the sushi is equally cutting edge. Try a spicy lobster roll with avocado, salmon caviar, tender shiso leaves, and the hot/sweet counterpoint of jalapeño and mango; a California roll upgraded with delicately sweet, fresh […]
Sushi in Miami New Times
Showing 67 - 88 of 110When non-Japanese restaurants, most commonly Thai joints, tack on sushi bars for purely commercial reasons, the sushi is generally either pretty lowest-common-denominator or pretty silly: a pedestrian selection of fish and lots of rolls featuring cream cheese. But not at Siam River. Though the Thai dishes are as good as anywhere else in town, the […]
The cuisine at this spry little 30-seater, a spin-off of Mr. Yum on Calle Ocho, is informed by Japan (sushi, sashimi, edamame); Thailand (tom yum goong and tom ka kai soups, curries, noodles, stir-fries); and Peru (ceviches, tiraditos). There are sixty-plus items to choose from, although a third are sushi-related rolls and such. Going from […]
Once upon a time, the food options at your local bowling alley were stale nachos, school-style pizza, and maybe a dehydrated burger or two. But that is far from the case at Splitsville, located next to the movie box office on the second floor of the Shops at Sunset Place. In fact, the bowling alley […]
Not just a sushi joint, this bustling lunch-and-dinner spot in downtown Coral Gables offers daily specials – scribbled in Kanji and English on blackboards that run the length of the east wall – depending on what’s fresh. A treasure on the regular menu is the spicy kimuchi ramen, a fiery interpretation of traditional noodle soup, […]
Sugarcane exudes the big-city allure of a longtime landmark oyster bar and grill. The menu is divided into three categories: the raw bar, the Japanese robata grill, and some 20 small plates of globally inspired snacks. Raw bar items include blackboard selections of seasonal oysters, shrimp cocktail, king crab legs, several crudos, and a limited […]
Follow the hostess through the tall black gates of Villa Casa Casuarina on Ocean Drive, into the courtyard, then upstairs to a pair of heavy wooden doors. Behind them: a dark space with a wooden vaulted ceiling crisscrossed by intricately inlaid beams. This is Italian designer Gianni Versace’s former suite, converted into a Japanese speakeasy […]
Sushi Chef’s plain façade and restaurant-in-the-middle-of-a-Japanese-market interior give no indication it serves perhaps the most extensive selection of Japanese dishes around. The encyclopedic menu lists more than 200 dishes, from all manner of sushi to tempura, rice and noodle bowls, salads, and entrées. Fish is generally high-quality – though two pieces of questionably fresh toro […]
Located inside a little Japanese market (that’s nearly impossible to see from the road), this place has a Japanese-trained veteran sushi chef who turns out a limited selection of what insiders consider among Miami’s top sushi. Some is extremely hard-to-find traditional Japanese stuff, like the Battera — Osaka-style sushi, for which rice is loaded into […]
In 2018, Erika, the daughter and right hand of beloved sushi master Michio Kushi, opened her own tiny sushi spot just down the road from her dad’s old haunt, Sushi Deli, in North Bay Village – and she brought many of her late father’s classics with her. Don’t be misled by the diminutive space – […]
Husband and wife Jonas and Alexandra Millan like to joke they were forced to open Sushi Garage so they’d have a place to eat Japanese food in Miami Beach that’s neither too expensive nor too experimental. Searching for a simple California roll? Sushi Garage does the staple justice. They offer both mock crab and king […]
