Top Best Sushi Places & Restaurants in Normandy Isle

"We understand the insanity of telling you to go out to dinner just to take a picture of your dessert, but hear us out, because the Raindrop Cake at Azabu Miami Beach is Instagram legend. A glass-like confection made of water with pearl agar, kinako (roasted soybean powder) and Japanese black sugar syrup, it is both bewildering and inspiring. You will see it and immediately understand why it has its own hashtag."

"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."

"This Michelin-starred concept from NYC is split between an elegant dining room, a chic cocktail bar and an 11-seat secluded sushi den inspired by a Tokyo izakaya. In any setting, you’ll sup on some unforgettable fish. We’re big fans of the salmon tataki drizzled in a kelp dashi dressing."

"I think S3 could also be called S5 for Sun, Surf, Sand, and Superb Sushi. In addition to their extensive list of specialty rolls and sashimi, they also have some Southern-inspired fare such as chicken and waffles. Their island-like lounge atmosphere just begs for lazy days relaxing by the fire pit, cocktail in hand, with the sound of the surf rocking an hypnotic melody in the background."

"From the restaurateurs and culinary masterminds behind South Florida hot spots such as YOLO, TRP Taste, Boatyard, Spatch and Rooftop,"

"The scene inside Pubbelly Sushi's buzzing dining room is hip and casual, and there's outdoor seating as well. The perfect order includes the bigeye tuna roll on a crispy, sticky rice cake with truffle oil, the snow crab roll with clarified butter, wagyu beef tartare roll, rock shrimp tempura and shishito peppers. Think of it as deconstructed sushi because the rolls don't resemble anything you've seen before."

"Japanese , Latin ,  Fusion"

"Bars Lounges Allapattah. Watr owns its stunning view of the ocean with a Peruvian-inspired rooftop restaurant and bar decked in reclaimed wood. The soundtrack is more akin to breaking waves than the usual club bangers you hear in these parts."

"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 Hotel Rooftop is our sky-high restaurant that floats over the sea with Peruvian-influenced Japanese cuisine. Stay connected by following @The1Rooftop."

"This fashionable Chinese bistro chain gets high marks with South Dade's trendier diners, who are all about the contemporary interior and eclectic menu. Start off with do-it-yourself lettuce wraps–these babies alone are worth the trip. Afterwards, go any route you like, from Szechwan or Hunan to Cantonese or Shanghai."

"A post shared by Izakaya Restaurant (@izakaya_restaurant) on Oct 17, 2017 at 7:19pm PDT. Su-Shin Izakaya in Coral Gables is one of those “If you know, you know” places. It doesn’t really promote itself, and the place has barely any social media presence; we found out about it through word of mouth."

"Izakayas – Japanese bars serving small plates that tend to go well with drinking – seem to be the latest trend. But Su Shin Izakaya, which opened in 1992, was way ahead of the curve. The lengthy menu ranges from sushi to ramen with lots of stops in between."

"This East Little Havana gem takes visitors through Cuba’s long history with cocktails named after Hemingway and the Hotel Nacional (both icons of the Havana cultural scene) and serves up authentic Cuban food. Café La Trova evokes a bit of nostalgia for pre-Revolutionary Cuba and the live band plays salsa and Latin music that may make it hard for you to stay in your seat!. The decor is low-key with dim lighting, wooden floors, and neutral walls allows you to focus fully on the food and drinks in front of you and the lively music that surrounds you."

"The brainchild of James Beard Award-winning chef, Michelle Bernstein, and cocktail master and cantinero, Julio Cabrera, Cafe La Trova is an ode to Miami’s Cuban culture. Housed in the epicenter of Little Havana, Calle Ocho, it really is two spaces in one. In the front, guests can sip on classic Cuban cocktails that are served by bartenders properly dressed in bow ties and jackets while swaying to live music and dining on dishes like paella croquetas and lechon con chicharrones (mojo marinated pork shoulder, steamed yuca, crispy pork skin)."

"Corn and chicken empanadas, paella croquettes and Cuban sandwiches—Café La Trova serves all the right things during lunch. With James Beard Award–winning chef Michelle Bernstein in charge of the food and acclaimed bartender Julio Cabrera slinging rum cocktails (if it’s that kind of lunch), this Little Havana spot is the midday tropical getaway you never knew you needed. 971 SW Eighth St., Miami; 786-615-4739 or cafelatrova.com"

"DowntownMiami’s largest art museum is as much a showcase of architectural mastery as any other art form, where large rooms, rounded walls, and hanging gardens with more than 54,000 plants give it an aesthetic like no other art museum in the world. The view’s not bad either, where you’ll catch glimpses of Biscayne Bay in between showcases of contemporary art from throughout Latin America and the world. The museum is also home to Verde, which we’ll humbly call the best museum restaurant in America even without its breezy bayside terrace.Know before you go: PAMM is currently only open 2-9 pm on Thursday, and 11 am - 6 pm Friday through Sunday."
