About the restaurant

Sun, surf, sushi at Sushi Bichi, celebrating the culinary coastlines of the world’s most vibrant cultures in a beautiful, tropical Miami Beach location adjacent to the ocean in a serene, lush outdoor setting.

Executive Chef Byron Alabado and Executive Sushi Chef Shoyo Iida craft meticulous sushi, fire-cooked street skewers, inventive small plates and large entrees, plus fresh raw bar, ceviches & tiraditos that echo the authenticity of Japan, The Philippines, Mexico, Peru, Brazil, Israel and The West Indies.

A 360 degree bar features fresh handcrafted Bichi cocktails, premium Japanese sake, wonderful wines and Champagnes, and an international beer selection. Guests are greeted by a ceremonial Japanese torii gate - after passing through, the ordinary world is left behind, symbolically marking the transition from the mundane to the sacred.

We are an outdoor Restaurant. Sushi Bichi reservation bookings are subject to weather conditions. Most of the restaurant is not under cover.

I heard good things and had high expectations. It was good to an extent but disappointing overall. The food was ok. The advertized seafood was not available. Very popular and hence there is an alloted time to dine (2 hours) then you must leave. That was disappointing as you get so caught up with the beautiful music.
