Top Best Sushi Places & Restaurants in Leisure City

"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."

"Restaurants Japanese South of Fifth. Azabu is for the discerning diner. The one who prefers their fish be flown straight from Japan and likes rice cooked in specialty equipment calibrated to the Miami heat and humidity."

"Did not expect the interior to resemble the lobby of a Courtyard Inn, so we asked to sit outside which made up for the lack of ambiance."

"This sushi comes from the award-winning Pubbelly boys, so guests can expect a menu of classic sushi dishes with their signature twist. Items like tuna pizza, bigeye tuna rolls, and miso bread pudding fill the menu, while the can’t-miss crab roll served with yuzu butter is as delicious as it is Instagram-worthy."

"The Pubbelly, located on South Miami Avenue, strives to put a fresh spin on sushi at their foray into Japanese cuisine. Jose Mendin, chef and co-owner, introduces unexpected ingred..."

"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."

"The rooftop pool and lounge at the 1 Hotel South Beach is definitely the finest of its kind in Miami Beach, offering ocean views and a zen atmosphere. A photo posted by jenniferlevant (@jlevant) on Jul 14, 2016 at 10:32am PDT"

"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..."

"The ideal place to hang out with friends, Pubbelly is known for its rustic pub scene, generous beer list and an Asian-fusion menu loaded with small and large plates designed to share."

"You can try many things on the menu if you are with a group of people because they are pretty small plates."

"The best thing about dining at Sugarcane is that you can try as many tapas-style dishes as you want, and always order more. At least that’s how Sugarcane hopes you’ll approach the menu, which includes everything from the now-ubiquitous small plates of edamame and shishito peppers to the kind of dishes you’ll only find here, like bone marrow with veal cheek marmalade, and duck and waffle with a crispy bird leg and mustard maple syrup. The restaurant has gained such a strong following over the years (there is an outpost in Las Vegas), that it’s also achieved that very distinct level of fame where even the most casual foodies have heard of it."

"The large indoor/outdoor restaurant is always lively with the sounds of people enjoying cocktails and oysters. The menu, by chef Timon Balloo, is diverse and global: small plates, meat, and vegetables from a Japanese robata grill, raw bar items, and sushi. Among the dozen or so robata items, chicken yakitori is a favorite — soft, plump pieces of breast meat interspersed with snippets of thick, almost-leek-like Tokyo scallions, all lightly charred and glazed with a slightly sweet, mirin/soy-based tare sauce."

"Sugar Cane Raw Bar Grill is a garden of gastronomic delights. It is run by a renowned chef who has worked with famous faces, such as Emeril. Guests can enjoy meals such as sushi rolls, tapas, salads, oysters and other shellfish, and food prepared on the robata grill."

"In the heart of the Design District is KAIDO, a twist on a Japanese restaurant that shines for its plating. For food that's both beautiful and delicious, this is a great spot, sinc. Environment: prod-sc Request ID: 609bce20-26bb-4c3e-a5f3-66d1ae0e7df0 Machine Name: cdfdb214dcca"

"In terms of truly impressive interiors, KOMODO is by far one of the most intriguing, eclectic and romantic restaurants in Miami. Sprawling, sexy, and filled with enough unique decor to force you to peel your eyes away from your partner, this is the ultimate date-night restaurant. They’ve even got a cosy little bird’s nest you can request to dine in, which, to be honest, is going to create a romantic evening you’ll never forget."

"Restaurants Chinese Brickell. David Grutman’s upscale Asian restaurant is crawling with celebrities at any given moment, which is partly why he can charge the big bucks for Peking duck, wagyu beef dumplings and Chilean seabass skewers. If it’s a party you want, the scene-y spot delivers in terms of flavor and quality."

"When it comes to fast horse racing or fast games, Miami offers a few hot spots: Gulfstream Park, Hialeah Park Racing & Casino, Miccosukee Resort & Gaming and Magic City Casino. At Gulfstream Park and The Village at Gulfstream Park, thoroughbred horse racing, fine shopping and nightlife come together. You may see the next Kentucky Derby winner racing here. At historic Hialeah Park Racing & Casino, see the famous pink flamingos, catch a horse race or check out their state-of-the-art casino."

"The numbers flash with astonishing speed, and you've got ten boards to cover. The smoke in the room, as thick as alligators in the nearby canals, is getting in your eyes, making it difficult to see, and the hour drags on. You're simply too worn out to concentrate."

"Here the long-storied legacy of the nation’s indigenous peoples has culminated in…slots. Lots of slots, and comatose gamblers pouring quarters into them. Still the Miccosukee and Seminole are cashing in on this..."

"Inventive French cuisine with one of the city’s premier wine lists Pound for pound this French spot hidden in the Cadet hotel might be the most romantic restaurant in Miami. The name is dead-on accurate as the tiny 40-seater gives the feel of eating in someone’s Paris apartment, complete with unique art on the walls and decorative china. Though you might find yourselves sitting close to other couples, somehow you still feel like you’re the only people there, dining on stuff like short ribs marinated in burgundy wine, or steamed squab and foie gras wrapped in savoy cabbage."

"In the lobby of the Cadet hotel, there is a 30-seater restaurant, where chefs with a Michelin star are preparing wonderful dishes under the watchful eye of restaurateurs seeking to create an authentic French dinner. You will find impeccable service, innovative cuisine and a well-designed wine list. In an intimate setting, guests of Pied à Terre feel like participants in an important culinary event."

"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."

"The spectacular addition to the iconic Eden Roc Hotel, now known as the Nobu Eden Roc Hotel Miami Beach, features an extraordinary spa that focuses on taking each guest on a sensory journey, focusing on the mind, body and spirit. The 22,000 square-foot oceanfront facility is a full-service spa equipped with 18 treatment rooms, a custom scrub bar, cold plunges, sauna & steam rooms, a hydrotherapy circuit, a relaxation salon, VIP cabanas and a state-of-the art gym. The experience is heightened to a truly holistic experience with the incorporation of new ESPA treatments, Nobu-inspired stretching rituals and the purity of Natura Bissé skincare products, that all curate the ultimate restorative experience."

"Splurge on an oceanfront view room at Eden Roc, a historical wonder that blends nostalgic glamour with plush modern comforts. Unwind at a cabana at one of their three sumptious pools, or enjoy resort activities like jet skiing and nature trails. You don’t even need to be a guest to slip into luxury at their world class spa, a serene playground offering massages, facials and other spoil-you-silly services."

"Glamour oozes from every corner of this classic Miami Beach resort on Collins Avenue. There are three pools with plenty of cabanas for posing, a sprawling spa, striking lobby bar with jaw-dropping chandelier and the in-demand Malibu Farm waterfront restaurant. Well-heeled locals also flock to dine at the hotel’s outpost of Nobu, famed for its delicate Japanese dishes and the best sushi in town."

"Tierra Santa Healing House Photo: Courtesy Faena Miami Beach. Though the name translates to “holy ground healing house,” you don’t have to be a soul-meets-body yogi to appreciate the experience at Faena Miami Beach’s 22,000-square-foot Tierra Santa Healing House spa. In fact, there are just as many beauty and skincare offerings as there are “healing arts.” The spa has partnered with both all-natural cult-favorite Naturopathica (cleansing facials are standouts) and French heritage brand Biologique Recherche (try the micro-needling treatment) to give its treatments a science-backed kick."
