Bazaar Mar

Located in the SLS Brickell Hotel & Residences in downtown Miami, Bazaar Mar specializes in the bounty of the ocean, with a seasonal emphasis on items sourced from Miami and the Caribbean. As its name implies — mar is Spanish for "sea" — the restaurant offers everything from executive chef José Andrés' take on "sea snacks" such as ceviche and tiradito to whole fish prepared almost any way you can imagine. But the real gem here is the raw bar, where guests can select from a number of sashimi and crudo selections that vary based on what's in season. It's not uncommon to find offerings such as greater amberjack from the Cantabrian Sea alongside local rainbow runner or yellow jack, as well as rare finds such as ora king salmon belly, Japanese hamachi, and kampachi from Hawaii. Ask for Andrés' favorite raw bar dish: geoduck served with the skirt and the siphon, braised with soy and aromatics to create a briny sauce.
