MeditterAsian Magic at MILA
As an A-List hot spot, MILA’s menu is renowned all over the state. Located in the nucleus of Miami Beach where the lights are bright, and the personalities are vibrant. MILA embodies the essence of a seductive and lively dining experience. The restaurant design showcases a fusion of simplistic Japanese interiors and cyclidic design sculptures with greenery throughout the space. As a multi-concept restaurant, MILA offers an experience for every mood, from award-winning Omakase Sushi in an enclosed space to a laid-back lounge setting for the perfect Miami nightcap and group gatherings. Plus, an exclusive members-only area for bespoke events, MILA has it all.
MILA introduces a delectable fusion of Japanese and Mediterranean flavours, carefully curated by 26-time Michelin-awarded Chef Michaël Michaelidis and Corporate Chef Joshua Walls. The truly magical menu is a homage to umami-rich Japanese influences and the zesty Mediterranean flavours. In true Izakaya style, guests are encouraged to indulge in multiple small plates, from tapas and raw bar selections to earth and water dishes and delicate sushi offerings.
Here are your Mila must-try dishes:
- Begin with the Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice smoked chilli sauce, kizami wasabi and shiso. Pair it with the lightly Fried Eggplant Zucchini Chips, served alongside a shiso-infused tzatziki.
- Next, the tender Shawarma Wagyu Gyoza, with fragrant shichimi ponzu – it’s a melt-in-your-mouth delight.
- From the Earth menu, choose the Spicy Chipotle Lamb Chops which offer a bold, smoky kick, perfectly balanced by the cool, creamy shiso yoghurt.
- For an irresistible side, don’t miss MILA’s Crispy Brussels Sprouts, glazed in a sweet honey-soy sauce.
And just when you think satisfaction has peaked, dessert awaits:
- Fan favourite – the Exotic Vacherin, a stunning combination of passionfruit mango coulis and vanilla cream, is literally and figuratively a showstopper.
- For the chocolate connoisseurs, the Molten Chocolate Lava Cake with miso ice cream is otherworldly, a party of sweetness in the mouth.
Once you’ve experienced MILA, you’ll find yourself counting down the days until your next visit.
