"Since it debuted in early 2018, the Miami Beach outpost of this Michelin-starred New York City concept by the acclaimed Japanese hospitality group, Plan Do See, has been a hit among both locals and tourists. Their main menu features incredible options like succulent sea scallops from Hokkaido paired with creamy, rich uni, shichimi pepper, shisho, yuzu, and ponzu; Japanese wagyu tataki seared to perfection and drizzled with rich truffle oil; crispy golden lobster tempura served with spicy mayo and bubu rice crackers; and all kinds of delectable robata favorites, like Nagoya-style chicken wings with caramelized spice teriyaki sauce, and bonito BBQ pork belly skewers with bubu arare, chile, and lime.

"When it comes to Japanese restaurants and food, the first thing that pops into most people’s heads is sushi. However, there’s plenty of frying, grilling, steaming, and simmering going on in Japanese kitchens as well!. Think soy-marinated fish fillets, udon, ramen, yakitori, and sukiyaki, teriyaki— the list of distinctive, mouthwatering dishes from the “Land of the Rising Sun” can go on and on!"

"From its days inside the former St. Roch Market, this Japanese-Peruvian restaurant has grown into a larger space all its own in the Miami Design District’s Palm Court. Led by a brother, sister, and father team lovingly referred to as the “Chang Gang,” Itamae is an ode to combining their Peruvian heritage with Japanese classics. Think: a curated selection of maki and rolls, sashimi, and rice bowls served alongside tiraditos and ceviches."
"When I heard Itamae, an excellent Nikkei spot that initially debuted in a Design District food hall, was going to open its own restaurant, I was way too excited. I probably checked their Instagram page on a weekly basis for updates. I even ended up interviewing Nando and Val Chang about the process of opening during a pandemic, which sounded like a planetary-size headache."

"We certainly wouldn’t be mad if Miami got itself a few more solid dim sum options - but until that day comes, you can find us at Tropical Chinese pointing to random plates being pushed through the dining room on carts the size of baby elephants. This Bird Road favorite is where you’ll find Miami’s best dim sum and a roast pork bun we occasionally dream about. Dim sum is served seven days a week until 3:30pm."
"Restaurants Chinese Ludlam / Tropical Park. Family-owned and in business for more than 30 years, Tropical Chinese is the neighborhood favorite for Hong Kong-style Chinese food, and the best dim sum west of the Palmetto. It’s busy most of the day but nothing beats the lunch rush in crowd size and offerings."
"A post shared by Tropical Chinese Restaurant (@tropicalchinesemiami) on Jul 21, 2018 at 9:36pm PDT. Another of the critics’ favorites in Miami is Tropical Chinese Restaurant. The main reason for them to like this place is the excellent flavor and selection of dim sum."

"Restaurants Chinese Midtown. Chef and restaurant owner Richard Hales serves modern, Chinese Sichuan cuisine at this casual but inviting restaurant in Midtown. He sources ingredients locally and isn’t afraid to push the envelope when it comes to proteins, like the gong bao rabbit, and preparations, including handmaking the noodles you’ll inevitably find yourself slurping."
"MidtownWhat you're getting: "K’Dunk"Though most Miamians are as allergic to the words “get there early” as Rick Ross is allergic to broke, that’s about the only way to get one of these fresh-baked babies filled with chocolate, white chocolate, and peanut butter-filled pretzels. The secret’s out and if you go in after the lunch rush there’s no guarantee you’ll get one."
