"Even though it’s on the roof of a shiny new building, Shiso reminds us of hashtagging our way through the Wynwood art walks of the twenty-teens. The indoor-outdoor restaurant has big cement columns tagged with graffiti. It’s fun, loud, and the Japanese menu has a Caribbean influence that feels refreshingly original in a neighborhood where everything is either a taco shop or an Italian restaurant. Stick to the meaty dishes like the short rib or the duck croquettes (and avoid sushi altogether) to get the most out of this place." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino
