OSAKA NIKKEI
Osaka Nikkei ranks 2nd in the list of best restaurants in Brickell. Osaka Nikkei treats guests to a multisensory Nikkei culinary experience. For a one-of-a-kind dining experience, the restaurant combines traditional Japanese cooking techniques with Peruvian flavors and ingredients. The dimly lit room transports guests to a Japanese-inspired oasis where they can watch the sushi masters at work.
The menu begins with Ceviches and progresses to Tiraditos & Usuzukuris, Makimono, and Nigiris, followed by Peruvian Izakaya dishes such as Hiyashi Zensai (cold appetizers), Yaki Zenzai (hot appetizers), and finally the entrees — Tokusen (special selections). Hotate Truffle Nigiri - seared white scallop infused with truffle butter and lime; and Tuna Foie, garnished with Maldon salt and caramelized pear - are signature dishes. The Mariscos al Fuego and the Hotate Parma are ideal for those seeking an extra kick.
Osaka's delectable cuisine is meant to be paired with an equally delectable drink. Mr. Osaka, a tart yet fruity rum-based drink with a smoky finish, and the Aka Sour, which transitions from slightly tart to sweet as the chicha morada-infused ice cube melts, are among the cocktails on the menu. The restaurant is closed on Monday but opens at different times for lunch and dinner the other days of the week.
