"There’s nothing new about Hiyakawa. The Japanese restaurant in Wynwood turns five this summer. But to celebrate, they’re doing something new: cosplaying as an izakaya through August 31. There are new dishes on the menu, like hiyayakko tofu, pork gyoza, wagyu tataki, and some of the crispiest chicken karaage we’ve ever had the pleasure of eating. The music is a little louder and the staff get to wear T-shirts, but the special izakaya dishes expose Hiyakawa’s true form as a fancy Japanese restaurant. It’s all exceptional, and we’re a little sad we’ll have to say bye to these dishes in a month." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino, ryan pfeffer, ryan pfeffer, mariana trabanino, ryan pfeffer, mariana trabanino, virginia otazo, virginia otazo, virginia otazo, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino
"Hiyakawa wins the award we just made up for Most Interesting Ceiling In Miami. But beyond the beautiful curved architecture of this upscale place, which makes you feel like you’re eating inside a fancy cave, there are some excellent Japanese dishes and sushi. Try to hit just about every section of the menu when placing an order—especially the sugata-mori appetizer. It's a rotating fish that's presented whole, with delicate strips of sashimi you get to grab right off the fish's belly. You'll spend significant money here no matter how you order, but if budget isn't much of a concern, go for the $180 per person tasting menu." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino
"This stunning Wynwood restaurant is an ode to Japanese cuisine with a variety of a la carte fried dishes, soups, appetizers, seasonal sushi, nigiri, and hand rolls offered by the piece in an architecturally stunning setting." - Olee Fowler
"Not only does Hiyakawa have the greatest ceiling in Miami—a curvy design makes you feel like you’re inside a fancy cave—but it's also making some of the best Japanese food in Miami. Sushi is the main event here and they have a couple of sushi platter options ranging in price from $70 to $120, as well as an excellent omakase for $250 per person. Supplement your sushi with some of the great fried appetizers as well as the sugata-mori: a rotating fish that's presented whole, with delicate strips of sashimi you get to grab right off the fish's belly. After you finish, it's taken back to the kitchen and fried whole, so you can pick the remainder of the crispy skeleton apart like potato chips." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo
"Hiyakawa is a Wynwood sushi spot that wins the award we just made up for “Most Interesting Ceiling In Miami.” But, architecture aside, Hiyakawa is also just a tremendous restaurant. You’re going to spend money here, especially if you want to do the stunningly delicious $250 per person omakase. If you're going a la carte, try to hit just about every section of the menu. The tempura is excellent, and the sugata-mori appetizer is a must-order too. Sushi should be on the table as well. You can order by the piece, but they have a few platter options ranging from about $70 to over $100 that'll make life easier on you." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino
