14 Outstanding South Florida Japanese Restaurants That Go Beyond Sushi | Eater Miami

"Part of South Florida’s “Philly Invasion,” this modern take on a traditional izakaya is chef Michael Schulson’s addition to the newly revamped Diplomat Resort in Hollywood. The resort can be seen as Broward’s version of the Fontainebleau and carries the laid-back vibes that Miami’s northern neighbor is known for while still being elegant. The menu at Monkitail is diverse and features classic robatayaki, as well as Schulson’s more unique fusion creations. The edamame and truffle dumplings in sake-infused dashi are a must-have." - Carlos Olaechea
