Master Critic Review
Sushi Club
8.3
Owner Oscar Goya opened this family-run specialty coffee shop in 2020 with his daughter and art in mind—the name comes from 'I think she is beautiful,' describing his wife and mother. The 90s anime décor and local art covering every surface create personality that most Brickell cafés sorely lack, and the partnership with Great Circle Coffee means the espresso is properly dialed in. The halal-certified menu brings multicultural flair to creative dishes like the Coral Way salmon avocado toast and Nutty Shakshuka. Service consistently earns praise—staff genuinely makes you feel like family. The vegan burger with gluten-free bun gets specific callouts as exceptional. A genuine hidden find in a neighborhood drowning in corporate concepts.
