"The Den is located inside South Beach’s Azabu, in a private room covered in neat rows of sleek wood. There are two options to choose from here: a 16-course meal for $185 per person, and a 22-course meal for $300. We’d go with the 16-course. Not every plate here is an emotional firework, but there will be enough of the necessary flavor lightning bolts to justify the cheaper option—impossibly tender otoro, dabs of fresh wasabi placed neatly underneath thin strips of flounder, a pine straw smoked salmon nigiri that has a perfect whisper of campfire flavor. It’s all constructed with perfectly vinegary sushi rice." - ryan pfeffer
