Sushi by Bou Returns to Miami with a Hidden Omakase Experience in Wynwood
Miami’s vibrant Wynwood district is set to welcome an exciting addition to its eclectic food scene with the opening of Sushi by Bou on September 19, 2024. Known for its timed omakase dining, this unique sushi experience returns to the city, bringing its luxury roots from the iconic Versace Mansion to a hidden speakeasy inside the Arlo Wynwood hotel.
Tucked away in Higher Ground, a revamped third-floor cocktail lounge, the new speakeasy embodies Wynwood’s mix of artistic expression and culinary excellence. The decor pays homage to ’90s hip-hop culture, with abstract graffiti and portraits of musical legends like The Notorious B.I.G. adorning the walls. Velvet furnishings, dim lighting, and crimson curtains add to the exclusive ambiance, making it the perfect setting for an intimate omakase experience.
Omakase with a Modern Twist
At Sushi by Bou, diners can choose between a 12-piece omakase ($65) or a more indulgent 17-piece selection ($125). Each course highlights premium ingredients, including locally sourced and globally imported seafood like botan ebi (spotted prawn), o-toro (fatty tuna), and the restaurant’s signature Wagyuni — a surf-and-turf combination featuring wagyu beef and uni. Alongside the sushi, guests can enjoy a curated selection of craft cocktails, rare Japanese whiskeys, and imported sake, making for a complete sensory experience.
The Wynwood Factor: Art, Culture, and Cuisine
The decision to open Sushi by Bou in Wynwood is a nod to the neighborhood’s growing reputation as a hub for cutting-edge cuisine and urban art. Wynwood, known for its colorful murals and galleries, has transformed into one of Miami’s most sought-after neighborhoods, attracting residents, artists, and foodies alike. As more high-end dining concepts like Sushi by Bou take root here, the neighborhood continues to evolve, solidifying its place as a cultural and culinary destination.
For potential investors or those looking to immerse themselves in this dynamic area, Wynwood’s growth offers not only an artistic experience but also strong real estate opportunities. New developments, luxury residences, and boutique hotels are popping up, adding value to the neighborhood while maintaining its distinctive charm.
