Cuban entrepreneurs Rasiel Reyes, Ángel Sánchez, and Carlos Cruz will open Yamashiro Miami on October 29th, a new luxury dining space that aims to become a benchmark for haute Japanese cuisine in South Florida. Inspired by the iconic Japanese palace in Hollywood opened in 1914, the restaurant will combine tradition and modernity in an exclusive culinary experience.
“Proud to present our new project,” Reyes wrote on his social media account. Instagram, where he described the venture as a “legacy” built with effort and perseverance.
The businessman recalled his beginnings in the United States almost twenty years ago, when he arrived "with empty pockets, but with great riches in our minds," emphasizing that this new achievement is the result of years of work in the entertainment and hospitality world.
Yamashiro Miami's culinary offering will be led by Executive Chef Gustavo Montes and renowned chef Charbel Hayek, who designed a menu that combines traditional Japanese techniques with premium ingredients.
Highlights include katsu sando, Japanese fried chicken, lobster in miso beurre blanc, black garlic Chilean sea bass, and cuts of Japanese and American wagyu, such as wagyu tomahawk with bone marrow teriyaki and artisanal pickles.
The restaurant's architectural design will also be one of its biggest attractions.
The space combines the elegance of contemporary Japanese aesthetics with the tropical charm of Miami: vaulted wooden ceilings, interior gardens, warm lamps, and thoughtful nighttime lighting create a sophisticated and welcoming atmosphere.
The outdoor terrace and indoor areas were designed to offer a visual experience as exquisite as its culinary offering.
Yamashiro Miami follows the previous success of Factoría de Azúcar, another restaurant promoted by the same business group, which has generated great acceptance in the city's culinary scene since its opening.
With this new opening, Cuban entrepreneurs seek to consolidate their presence in Miami's competitive culinary scene.
