The 12 Best Restaurants in Gainesville, Florida | Eater Miami

"Another vision brought to life by Gator graduates, Dragonfly Sushi and Sake Co. has popularized Japanese cuisine in Gainesville for over two decades. Owners Hiro Leung and Song Kim aimed to expand access to Japanese food in a town they felt lacked it. The shareable menu items consistently bring in a large crowd, becoming a popular restaurant for date nights and celebrations. Begin the meal with buttered edamame and fried, peach-glazed krab wontons, followed by a specialty roll loaded with toppings not found in sushi bars nearby for $10 to $17, such as the Doralzuela roll with chimichurri steak and the Cobra Kai roll with garlic pesto and berry balsamic."
