Kissaki Sushi

"Kissaki is a Japanese restaurant originally from New York, although its South Of Fifth location feels right at home in South Beach thanks to a thumping dance music soundtrack, chaotic digital artwork, and a crowd who probably have some sort of bottle service booked for after dinner. You won’t look out of place in club attire here, but you can also come just to eat. Sushi is what Kissaki does best, and it should be the bulk of your order. Start with one of the crudo options and load up on nigiri or sashimi. The quality of the fish is better than most nearby options, and the uni pasta is also a tasty dish that’ll help fill you up if sashimi didn’t do the trick. Just avoid the wagyu sando, which is cooked to a well-done temperature no piece of wagyu should ever suffer. photo credit: Kissaki photo credit: Kissaki photo credit: Kissaki photo credit: Kissaki" - Ryan Pfeffer

"For authentic omakase miles from Japan, look no further than Kissaki. Located on the Bowery with a second outpost on the Upper West Side and a specially curated menu at the Gansevoort Rooftop, the intimate restaurant is ideal for a date night of primo sushi and sake. We recommend the 16-course flight for $150, because why not?"
