Description

Located at the Rosewood Miramar, AMA Sushi is straight out of Japan. The name is a nod to the famed female divers and the space resembles a typical Japanese house with a moody nautical appeal (think dark wood walls with lantern-like light fixtures and a scalloped sushi bar). Then there is the edomae-style sushi from Chef Kentaro Ikuta, available a la carte or as an omakase. It's worth going all in on the omakase to sample the chef's artistry, which begins with a trinity of bites from soba noodles and fried eggplant to sesame tofu. A seared scallop with wasabi vinaigrette paves the way for nigiri, with standouts including rich New Zealand king salmon and kamasu, a Japanese barracuda finished with a red chili paste. Black sesame cheesecake is a solid finish.
