Miami's sushi landscape has a new addition, or rather, an expansion by a familiar name. Omakai, a local sushi favorite, has cast its net wider with the opening of its sixth location in Doral, signaling yet another milestone of growth for the brand. The Doral outpost celebrated its inauguration with a ribbon-cutting ceremony today, at 6 p.m., reported Miami New Times. The event marked another leap into Omakai's ambitious mission to saturate Miami’s neighborhoods with its revered sushi culture.
Barely four months after a nod of approval from viral TikToker Keith Lee came, Omakai has witnessed a remarkable growth spurt. According to a post from their official Instagram account, the chain preempted its latest grand opening with a soft launch, welcoming guests starting from last Saturday through yesterday at 12 p.m. each day. The new additions to their fleet include four Omakai sushi spots scattered around Wynwood, Coconut Grove, Aventura, and the latest in Doral, as well as two hand roll bars occupying brick and mortar in Brickell and downtown Miami. The quick expansion, the soft opening during which admission was granted to all Miami sushi enthusiasts eager for a pre-opening preview, has managed to stir a wave of excitement through word of mouth and online buzz.
Omakai's Doral chapter is now open for reservations, offering patrons a chance to sample its menu amidst a fresh vibe. Before visitors set foot into the space bedecked with hopes of an exhilarating dining experience, they were prompted to secure a spot through online reservations. It's a tactful move by the restaurateurs to manage the expected throng, indicating their continual adaptive strategies for crowd control and patron satisfaction, as detailed by a social media missive on Omakai Sushi's Instagram.
