    The food was absolutely delicious, and the atmosphere is beautiful. Overall, we had a very enjoyable experience. The service was good, although perhaps a little slow at times. A bit more attention to clearing empty plates from the table would make the experience even better. Also, a smile from the manager is always appreciated! 😊 That said, these are only small details. The food was excellent, the setting was lovely, and we truly enjoyed our evening. We will definitely be back!

    Wonderful date nite in south beach! Our server was attentive but also let us have space to enjoy each other’s company. The food was paced beautifully and we weren’t rushed. The food was refined and fresh, and the bartender made us the most delicious yuzu mocktails. We tried the Miami spice menu, and out of all the ones we’ve tried over the years this one reigned supreme. My husband upgraded to the sushi/sashimi plate and he said it’s the freshest he’s ever had. I enjoyed the cabbage salad and miso salmon. I even ate the mushrooms (and I usually loathe mushrooms). Wonderful night and I can’t wait to return again soon! Also I wanted to add that our flight was quite delayed, and upon calling the restaurant was very accommodating with our late arrival. Little things like that mean so much. Our business felt truly appreciated.

    Hey Gina, Thank you so much for dining with us! It's wonderful to hear that the Miami Spice menu stood out to you and that you found the sushi and miso salmon to be exceptional. We are glad we could accommodate your late arrival and hope to see you again very soon! Thank You, The Azabu Miami Beach Team
