Our 10 Favorite Japanese Restaurants in Miami
"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. Savor exquisite Japanese fare and superb sushi from a hidden sushi counter while enjoying classic cocktails, whiskey and sake from Bar Azabu. Open for dinnerDress code: Smart CasualPhone: +1 786-276-0520"
"Bars Lounges Allapattah. Watr owns its stunning view of the ocean with a Peruvian-Japanese menu and a bar decked in reclaimed wood. The soundtrack is more akin to breaking waves than the usual club bangers you hear in these parts."
"Watr at the 1 Hotel Rooftop is our sky-high restaurant that floats over the sea with Peruvian-influenced Japanese cuisine. Stay connected by following @The1Rooftop."
"According to 10 Best, the best seafood restaurant in Fort Lauderdale is 3030 Ocean. This restaurant is within the Marriott Harbor Beach Resort and Spa, but it is open to the public. The menu in this fine dining establishment changes regularly to reflect seasonal availability and to make the best of organic produce."
"3030 Ocean, established in 2015, is a chic, oceanfront dinner bistro that serves unbelievable Modern American Seafood. Treat yourself to exquisitely prepared dishes like Hogfish Ceviche, Sautéed Florida Flounder, or Hickory Rubbed Palmetto Creek Pork Chop. Don’t miss their classic succotash."
"This Japanese-Peruvian restaurant first got its start inside the former St. Roch Market in 2018, but has since grown into a new larger space that’s all its own in the across the way in the Miami Design District’s Palm Court. Led by a brother, sister, and father team lovingly referred to a the “Chang Gang,” Itamae combines their Peruvian heritage with Japanese classics. Think a curated selection of specialty maki and vegan rolls, sashimi, rice bowls, alongside tiradito and ceviches, using ingredients like leche de tigre, fresh fish, and local produce."

"This tiny, classic dining room in Pinecrest feels like you’re in actual Japan, and we don’t mean fast-paced and sophisticated Tokyo. If you were to get on a train from Kyoto to a remote village half an hour away and stumble upon a small restaurant amongst hills and green fields, this would absolutely remind you of Sakura. This shopping center restaurant is easy to miss, but you’ll be glad you found it."
"Editor’s Note: Sushi by Bou is currently closed for the summer for renovations. Check back on their Instagram during the fall for updates on reopening. There are many different kinds of South Beach, but if you’re looking for the version that’s wearing a neon pink suit and driving a yellow Lamborghini down Ocean Drive, make a reservation at Sushi By Bou."
"An entirely outdoor restaurant nestled amidst the nature of Coconut Grove's Peacock Park, Glass & Vine is the perfect place to relax and unwind. Serving a range of contemporary American dishes across brunch, lunch and dinner (each dish prepared using locally-sourced ingredients), there's something to suit every taste at this patio in the park. Described as an 'intimate secret garden by the sea,' Glass & Vine evokes an enchanted forest vibe by night, with its sparkling fairy lights and swirling tree branches — ideal for romantic dates and evenings with friends alike."
"If a picnic in the park sounds sweet, a night out at Glass and Vine could be the next best thing. Adjacent to Coconut Grove’s Peacock Park, the open-air eatery serves a selection of snacks and entrees ranging from watermelon salad to glazed pork belly. Notable cocktails include the Maduro mai tai, Bay View Spritz, and two variations of frosé."
"Everyone knows Chopped Champion, Giorgio Rapicavoli’s, brunch game is on point (hello, Captain Crunch Pancakes via Eating House) and there’s no exception when it comes to brunch at Glass & Vine. The Coquito French Toast is made with coconut milk, cinnamon, and vanilla-maple — and once it’s finished there is really no need for dessert."
"For more than 100 years, this legendary South Beach restaurant has been the definitive place to feast on massive crustaceans served family-style. Pro tip: No meal here is complete without a slice of key lime pie. Now doing delivery and take-out."
"I had the French toast and fried chicken and it truly will feed 2 people. I took a star away because the &..."
"HistoryMiami doesn't sound like the name of a historical museum, which is exactly what organizers and board members had in mind. The less-bulky name signified a new direction for what was previously called the Historical Museum of Southern Florida. Today, the museum, which actually began as a historical association in 1940 (George Merrick and Marjory Stoneman Douglas were members) continues to offer the exhibits that were developed throughout the previous decades, along with new ones."
"South Florida – a land of escaped slaves, guerrilla Native Americans, gangsters, land grabbers, pirates, tourists, drug dealers and alligators – has a special history, and it takes a special kind of museum to... Top ChoiceMuseum in Downtown Miami"

"4 out of 5 stars Restaurants Overtown. By day, this 30,000-square foot riverside station makes for the perfect family-friendly afternoon outing. With a carnival-like atmosphere, little ones will get a kick out of lawn games such as cornhole and ping pong, along with the live acts featured weekly."
"A riverfront drinking joint with a dock full of food trucks, The Wharf features samplings from Miami hot spots like Garcia’s Seafood Grille & Fish Market, Mojo Donuts & Fried Chicken, and Lung Yai Thai Tapas. Paired with lazy furniture and a water view, a jaunt at The Wharf is a happy hour dream. View this post on Instagram"
