The Best Sushi in Miami

From a two-seating Brickell Key tasting to a cluster of Michelin-starred Wynwood omakase counters — where to eat the best sushi in Miami.

By Dim Hour · Updated 2026-06-25 · 6 verified picks

Miami has quietly become one of the country's best sushi cities, and Shingo in Coral Gables — a Michelin-starred Edomae counter — is one of several rooms making the case. The picks below span an intimate Brickell Key tasting, a run of Michelin-starred Wynwood omakase counters, and the izakaya that draws the crowds, each one scored and verified by Dim Hour.

A note on style: most of these are omakase counters serving Edomae sushi — aged, lightly cured fish over warm rice at the chef's pace — with a couple of izakaya for a looser night. Seats are limited and release ahead on Tock or direct booking; reserve early.
