"Also in the portfolio is Monkitail in Hollywood, Florida, another example of the group’s Japanese ventures." - Tierney Plumb

"Opened by the Schulson Collective outside Philadelphia, this concept launched in Hollywood, Florida as part of the group’s regional expansion." - Sarah Maiellano

"Chef and restaurateur Michael Schulson’s Japanese restaurant in the Diplomat Beach Resort offers a unique twist on the classic pina colada. The Monki’s Fist is made with sake, coconut, lime, and pineapple. Pair it with edamame dumplings or dive into the Chef’s Tasting Menu for a full experience." - Alona Martinez

"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


"Monkitail in Florida is also part of the Schulson Collective." - Rachel Vigoda
