Zuma

For over a decade, Zuma has been the spot for top notch izakaya-style dining in Miami. It's where you go to impress a date, celebrate, or simply treat yourself with flavorful Japanese cuisine. Chef Rainer Becker's Miami location (because yes, there's a Zuma in nearly every happening city from NYC to Rome to Dubai and beyond) offers ambiance, waterfront views, and an unbeatable menu featuring everything from grilled shishito peppers and fried softshell crab for starters, to an array of robata seafood, beef, and vegetable dishes, to signature plates like black cod marinated in saikyo miso wrapped in hoba leaf. And don't leave without asking to see the extensive sake list–"you probably won't get another opportunity to try this many varieties in town.
