Enter this hushed space defined by a blonde wood counter set with a dozen warm wood chairs and it would be natural to assume it's a traditional Japanese restaurant. This Coral Gables spot isn't, however, as Chef Reiji Yoshizawa weaves together his Japanese and Filipino heritage for a highly original omakase. Expect creativity and a bit of showmanship at this intimate space where meals begin with a series of snacks, including an impressive Kumamoto oyster in a "shell" made of dashi. Whimsical, it's also loaded with flavor. Madai and persimmon, sliced and plated to look like a rose, create a vibrant, bold dish. The sushi course includes several highlights, including the binchotan-seared blackthroat sea perch, before rounding out the meal with miso ice cream.
