Best Asian Food Restaurants in Miami

"Set up in a modern penthouse with views of Miami Beach, Juvia is the local’s go-to when it comes to rooftop restaurants. The menu matches the avant-garde décor—offering an eclectic mix of French, Japanese, and Peruvian meals varying from tuna poke to duck confit. Decorated in a lovely lilac and white motif underneath the starry-night sky, this outdoor restaurant checks all the boxes so that you can focus on sealing the deal."

"Another great spot that you will find in lincoln road is Juvia, where you can enjoy the breathtaking views of south beach. Unfortunately, with the sky-high views, the price of food and drinks is also high. But, if you genuinely want to enjoy the vacations right then, you must come to juvia."

"Within a year of its debut, this modern Asian small plates concept had earned national recognitition. It should not have been a surprise. Founded by two Zuma veterans, the Wynwood spot is so hot, it can take months to score a reservation between 7 and 9 p.m."

"Kyu has been dazzling locals and food critics alike with its creative Asian-inspired dishes, most of which are cooked over the open flames of a wood-fired grill. Try the Florida red snapper, beef tenderloin and a... Seafood in Downtown Miami"

"When you want to treat yourself to a nice meal, hit up KYU in Wynwood for amazing Japanese food. The swanky vibe will lure you in and the steamed buns will have you never wanting to leave."

"A Michelin-starred concept from New York City, Sushi Azabu offers sushi in several different areas, but sushi lovers should check out "The Den," a hidden sushi counter behind the kitchen. The 11-seat bar, which requires reservations, offers omakase-style dining with seafood flown in from Japan. If you prefer to dine at home, Azabu has launched Bubusan, a delivery-only offshoot that delivers omakase boxes of sushi (including a vegan offering) in exquisite packaging."

"You’d never guess this super authentic Japanese restaurant would be inside a hotel, but lo and behold, Azabu is located in the Marriott Stanton South Beach not too far from Ocean Drive. It feels worlds away, though. Dimly lit, quiet and beautifully understated, Azabu has a Michelin-starred sister location in Tribeca which inspired its Tokyo comfort food concept."

"Experience the spirit of Omatenashi, the essence of Japanese hospitality at Azabu Restaurant Miami Beach.

"Any place that features pork as the star of its menu has a place in the heart of The New Tropic’s meat lovers. This gastropub serves up mouth watering, Asian-inspired dishes and its craft beer and wine menu will have the hipster in you itching to post an Insta against the exposed brick walls. Plates are small so take a big group and share all the little things (or hit up Pubbelly Sushi right next door for a second course)."

"Run by Sergio Navarro and Jose Mendin – a James Beard Award nominee – Pubbelly Noodle Bar caters to pork lovers. At this Bayshore hotspot, bao buns are jammed with suckling pig, dumplings swell with pork belly and slabs of barbecue pork float in bowls of ramen. The space is polished and modern, filled with conversation and music."

"Satisfy those sushi cravings with Pubbelly Sushi’s creative rolls. Order up its popular butter krab roll or sashimi platters and get 10 percent off your order using code PUBBELLYLOVE. Plus, save the receipt and get a bartender’s choice cocktail when it reopens."

"In the Midtown Miami mall, Sakaya Kitchen offers creative fast-food takes on traditional Korean dishes. Don’t let counter service deter you; it’s a quick and easy way to order hassle-free before staking out a table. There are plenty of sharing options here, like house-made Dae-ji spicy pork croquetas and Bao steamed buns."

"In business since 1991 and located at the rear of the hotel lobby, overlooking the Sealine Marina, this elegant Chinese establishment has earned a solid reputation for its attentive tableside service, white tablecoth-and-fresh-flower decor, and consistently excellent Hong Kong-style Cantonese cuisine. On one side, you have a view of the sunken kitchen sealed by a glass wall, where you can watch the expert chefs whip up masterful concoctions. On the other side of the open, airy dining room, you get sprawling views of Biscayne Bay and the Venetian Isles."

"Restaurants Chinese Omni. This nondescript, banquet hall-style restaurant does Chinese food for Americans, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing if exotic cuisine isn’t your thing. Don’t miss Tony Chan’s Peking duck and its fried fish drizzled with the chef’s special sweet-and-sour sauce."

"Internationally renowned Chinese Restaurant in Miami, FL located inside the Doubletree Grand Hotel lobby, next to Biscayne Bay and the Sea Isles Marina"

"Specializing in cuisine from Liguria, Riviera Focacceria Italiana is famous for its incredible — you guessed it — focaccia with cheese. But their heavenly bread isn’t the only star on the menu; you’ll also love their amazing selection of seafood dishes, like pan-seared red snapper in a white wine sauce, grilled branzino with sauteed artichokes, and seared tuna filet prepared Ligurian-style over pureed chickpeas, with capers, tomatoes, pine nuts, parsley, and Taggiasca olives gremolata. Details: Riviera Focacceria Italiana is located at 3252 NE Buena Vista Blvd, Suite 110, Miami."

"Let the flavors of the Italian coast delight your senses when you dine at Riviera Focacceria Italiana. This restaurant focuses on the unique cuisine of the northwest Italian region of Liguria, a place with a rich culture and mouthwatering tastes. All their dishes are prepared using fresh local ingredients plus authentic Italian products imported weekly, including Stracchino cheese for their famous Focaccia con il Formaggio."

"A post shared by Riviera Focacceria Restaurant (@rivierafocacceriamiami). You’ve heard of love at first sight, but what about love at first bite?. That’s what you’ll find at Riviera Foccaceria once you and your date dig into their focaccia con formaggio."

"Restaurants Ice cream parlors Design District. Pastry chef Soraya Caraccioli-Kilgore’s playful dessert spot sells vibrant unicorn cakes, rich chocolate bark and soft-serve in unexpected flavors. Her ice cream, in varieties such as matcha and berry rhubarb, is already pretty special yet she always finds a way to kick it up a notch with add-ons like edible glitter, gold leaf, gold dust, cotton candy and fancy sprinkles—and we’re all the more grateful for it."

"Soraya Kilgore — best known as the pastry chef at restaurants like Brava and Alter — is the woman behind this palace of sweets in Miami's Design District. MadLab Creamery isn't just about the ice cream, however. This spot also entices young and old to create their own sweet-treat work of art via more than 30 toppings, including edible glitter, tufts of pink cotton candy, golden-sheet sprinkles, even a macaroon or two."

"This place has occupied its tiny little storefront on Sunset Drive for decades. Their milkshakes are so thick you can barely get them through a straw, and their chocolate malt shake is as classic as it gets. No fancy machines, no exotic flavors, just some of the best classic ice cream around, with generous scoops."

"This family owned ice cream shop is just off Sunset and has the best ice cream in Miami. Bold statement, I know, but I speak the truth. And, they don’t just stop at ice cream, their cookie cups happen to be the greatest of all time."

"A South Dade mainstay, this ever-popular ice cream stand has been serving homemade ice cream, cookies, and other sweets to the crowds for close to 30 years. Order online for in-store pick up."

"Restaurants Bakeries Design District. Miami’s late-night purveyor of gooey, made-to-order, donut-sized cookies is holding strong as one of the city’s best dessert delivery. It used to be that only FIU college students and people living nearby had access to these dank treats but thanks to a second store in the Miami Design District, nearly everyone can get their hands on these."

"It’s business as usual at both locations with the entire menu available. Keeping it trendy, Night Owl will also feature specials like cookies inspired by Tiger King along with a Wake ‘n Bacon cookie, a chocolate chip cookie topped with creamy dulce de leche and dipped in candied bacon.

"It’s a flavorful explosion of guava, Maria cookies (crunchy tea biscuits), white chocolate chips and a cream cheese frosting—and when we say it’ll keep you full for hours, we mean it. 10534 SW Eighth St.; 786-360-5011 or nightowlcookieco.com. Courtesy of My Ceviche"
