Where To Find The Best Sushi In FL 2020: Daily Meal

MIAMI, FL — Sushi is so much more than a California spring roll. The food writers at The Daily Meal website say more restaurants offer the delicate, flavorful Japanese treat. To give the deserving eateries recognition, the site recently posted its list of the Best Sushi Restaurant in Every State.

"Unless you’re partaking in an all-you-can-eat buffet, raw fish is typically reserved for special occasions, especially if you’re gunning for the upper-crust experience — omakase, in which high-end sushi is presented in an elegant succession. In the decades since its debut on American shores in the 1960s, the sushi scene has come a long way," the website wrote.

The foodie site's selection for Best Sushi Restaurant in Florida is NAOE at 661 Brickell Key Drive in Miami.

To find the best sushi restaurant in every state, the Daily Meal editors looked at Japanese restaurants that specialize in sushi and are highly rated by local publications, on user-generated review sites and in pre-existing regional and local rankings. The website then graded them on qualities including freshness and sourcing of fish, variety of offerings, ambiance and level of local and national renown.

Here's what The Daily Meal says of NAOE Miami:

"NAOE in Miami, Florida, is one of the most exclusive restaurants in the country — it serves just 16 people per night. Each night, chef Kevin Cory crafts an omakase meal for $220 per person prior to tax and tip. The menu is complex and ever-changing, though past rotations have seen a tasting of uni nigiri, steamed cobia with shimeji mushroom and grated yamaimo, slow-simmered pork jowl with parsnip mustard and more."
