Our 10 Favorite Japanese Restaurants in Miami
"Where else can you dine on Michelin-starred Japanese cuisine right by the ocean?. Azabu Miami Beach serves killer fish (think salmon tataki, miso black cod and spicy tuna crispy rice) with a view of the water. Just make sure to reserve a table on the restaurant’s outdoor patio in advance."
"Don’t let the Ocean Drive location fool you: Azabu Miami is not a tourist trap. It’s actually a South of Fifth gem that deserves your full attention. The restaurant, located inside the Stanton Hotel, is known for its memorable Japanese cuisine that’s both satisfying and inviting."
"The wooden bar and Polynesian inspired rooftop make water a must-visit place to come. Enjoy great nightlife that you usually don’t get in the usual clubs because the soundtrack is fantastic. The stunning ocean view, drinks, and Zen vibes will also let you feel that you are in a spa."
"Nothing like a soft sea breeze, white, pillowy couches and some delicious Peruvian-influenced Japanese cuisine to make us feel like we’re on vacation right here at home. 2341 Collins Ave., Miami Beach; 305-604-6580 or 1hotels.com. View this post on Instagram"
"Watr at the 1 Rooftop Miami is the perfect place to go to dazzle a date or have a memorable evening with friends. You can float 18 stories above the city and enjoy 360-degree views..."
"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."
"Peruvian-Japanese food in Miami. This Nikkei restaurant from the Chang Gang (Papa Fernando Chang, Son Nando and Daughter Valerie) who make the most delicious makis and ceviches in Miami. I'm looking forward a lot for the opening of their new location.". Itame140 NE 39th St #136Miami, United States"

"On the spectrum of $200-per-person omakase dinners and that place nearby that does surprisingly good rolls for under $10, you’ll find Blue Ribbon just about in the middle, tilted slightly towards the fancier side of the scale. They serve high-quality fish and the space fits in well with the art deco-style of the cute little hotel that it’s housed in. Come here to eat any roll with fatty tuna and great fried chicken while nodding your head to censored hip-hop songs."
"The gist: The grunge era is alive and well at this Seattle-style yakitori shop, where grilled meats and ramen combine with a cleaned up ‘90s-era setting for the best casual Asian restaurant in Miami.The food: Buya’s menu takes big inspiration from drizzly-day northwest yakitoris, where the modernized take on authentic Japanese dishes are almost guaranteed to make you over order. Start with the tempura beech mushroom, a deep-fried fungus that’s like a bloomin’ onion minus the bad breath. Move on to the grilled wagyu with shiso chimichurri or the pork belly with fuji apple glaze."
"For casual bites and drinks, look no further than Buya Izakaya + Yakitori. Those not familiar with the izakaya concept should know that these Japanese bars are essentially informal hangouts. Don’t let the laid-back vibes fool you, though: You’re in for some seriously tasty food."
"If you are a history buff or culture buff, then you will love the Art and Culture Center of Hollywood. Here you’ll find many contemporary visual art exhibitions, live stage performances, educational facilities for aspiring local artists, and much more. Just be sure to check their website for listings and seasonal exhibitions that are so good."
"The Center, which is southeast of Young Circle, has a great reputation for presenting übercool contemporary art exhibitions and providing…"
"Situated inside the University of Miami, this long-standing museum is a favorite for UM students and the Coral Gables community. The Lowe is home to a well-rounded collection of art from the Italian Renaissance, Baroque, Greco-Roman, and Spanish Old Masters, among others. The museum also holds a sizeable assortment of Native American, African, and Asian art and antiquities."

"If you don’t mind breakfast at a chain restaurant, we don’t mind including one of the most consistently good options for breakfast in Naples, even if it is a bit pricey. From "million dollar bacon" (again, pricey but oh so yummy) to the vanilla chai, First Watch serves some excellent breakfast choices which include traditional favorites and a wide array of healthy options as well. This award winning Florida based chain of restaurants use only in-season produce for all their preparations."
"Doughnut Break features gourmet doughnuts with a European touch that can be seen in the form of many homemade meringues and specialty creams. Here, those with a sweet tooth can order unique doughnuts like the natillas made with Maria crackers and a touch of cinnamon or the doughnut croissant filled with its famous crema catalana.
