Loud blaring house music accompanies your hummus at this storefront Mediterranean restaurant/pizza shop. What makes this restaurant so popular (and it’s always busy), is the close proximity to all the expensive hotels and lounges on this northern strip of South Beach, and the fact that it’s nearly always open.

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.
