(Miami Beach, FL) – Restaurateurs Jonas and Alexandra Millán and Chef Partner

Sunny Oh of Juvia Miami Beach and Bonito St. Barth are thrilled to announce the

opening of Sushi Garage. The 100-seat, 4,000 square foot restaurant is located on

the newly dubbed “Restaurant Row” of the locals-friendly and foodie-centric Sunset

Harbour neighborhood. Now open to the public, the restaurant honors Japanese

culinary philosophy by utilizing the freshest and finest ingredients, with bold and

innovative takes on traditional classics.

“Building upon the success of Juvia, we have been looking to create a local driven

true Japanese concept in a neighborhood environment. With Sushi Garage we hope

to enhance the dining scene in Miami with our approachable concept,” says Jonas.

“Sunset Harbour is at the epicenter of Miami’s evolution of dining and restaurants,”

says Millan. “We’re trying to keep it simple and provide locals and smart tourists a

casual restaurant in an exciting ‘environment.’”

Helming the kitchen is Partner Chef Sunny Oh, who also oversees the kitchen at

Juvia. Prior to joining the Milláns, he was executive chef of Nobu Restaurant on

South Beach for more than a decade. Joining Oh at Sushi Garage is award-winning

corporate pastry Chef Gregory Gourreau, who has worked extensively in both

France and The United States alongside iconic toques including Alain Ducasse and

Francois Payard. SushiGarage offers a number of hot & cold appetizers such as

Kampachi Yuzu – Cilantro Salt Tiradito and Chicken Shrimp Gyoza. Main entrées

include items like Miso Maple Seabass and Sliced Tenderloin Teriyaki along with a

number of unique nigiris ranging from Truffle Shitake Nigiri to the delectable

Hamachi Chili Tosazu. Refreshing libations, crafted by Bonito St. Barth’s award-
winning mixologist Jerome Hurtado, perfectly pair with Chef Sunny’s delectable

menu.

Sushi Garage was designed by Alejandro Barrios, who won The James Beard

Foundation Design Award for it’s sister property Juvia in 2013. Beyond the garage

door entrance of what was once an auto body and paint shop, Alberto Cavalieri Koi

fish sculptures dangle from the ceiling and handcrafted tiles dress the floor. With

natural wood finishes and tranquil green tones, Sushi Garage embodies a crisp

aesthetic enhanced by fresh ginger and herbs growing throughout the restaurant.

Keeping it simple and Japanese to its core, Sushi Garage also pays homage to its

neighborhood, which was once a bustling warehouse district that has fast become

one of the most desirable neighborhoods in Miami Beach. The Japanese restaurant

also plans to incorporate a lifestyle retail component in the near future, allowing

patrons to take away a piece of Sushi Garage with them.

Sushi Garage is located at 1784 West Ave. serving dinner seven days a
