Kissaki

Japanese | South Beach
What makes Kissaki, the New York City export, so beloved in South Beach? First and foremost, it’s their unwavering commitment to honoring and sharing Japanese traditions this side of the Pacific. Kissaki stays true to Miami vibes at its South of Fifth locale with a chic lounge setting, dim lighting, and hushed dance music, where epicures can promptly indulge in unrivaled kaiseki cuisine. Mindful sourcing, seasonality, and quality are the pillars of the restaurant’s success, and compromise simply isn’t in their vocabulary. This is made possible by Kissaki’s own Fishery and Wildlife License, ensuring that everything from uni to caviar and most of the fish is flown in directly from Japan, while the rest is responsibly caught off the US shores. The South Beach location allows diners to indulge in a la carte menu items as well as friendly priced omakase. On the menu, find specialties like the toro sundae made with melt-in-your-mouth tuna tartare, egg yolk, and osetra caviar; A5 wagyu crispy rice topped with osetra caviar and truffle; or the umami-packed uni pasta topped with the creamiest Hokkaido uni. Then there’s the signature nigiri and sushi flights featuring fish so fresh, you can taste the ocean. To round off the experience, Kissaki offers a selection of unique sake like the Soto Junmai Daiginjo, noted for its herbaceous essence with hints of wild strawberry, honeysuckle, and anise. All in all, it’s an experience you’ll be narrating with delight for days to come.
