Dine Like a True VIP at Sushi by Bou Wynwood

The restaurant has over 20 locations in the U.S.

Sushi by Bou is not your typical sushi restaurant. It’s an exclusive experience where only a select few who have been able to secure a reservation find themselves in a secret dining wonderland. Located on the third floor of Arlo Wywnood’s Higher Ground, the restaurant is one that mixes in elegance, pop culture and a secretive vibe that just works to create a unique type of environment where you do not only feel welcome, but also like you are part of an elite group invited to a private dinner party.

While Sushi by Bou is a timed experience meant to be immersive, the omakase does not rush you out.  And that’s a plus, and one that sets the restaurant apart. It shows their passion for true hospitality and for their craft.

While there, you are greeted warmly as they offer you a spot at the bar or the welcome lounge full of plush and comfortable seating. It does not feel like just a restaurant; it feels like an intimate speakeasy-inspired space where you can make new friends and chat intimately with other dining guests and the chefs that hand-select and prepare fresh sushi for you to enjoy.

While my friend and I were there, we felt like part of the family, like we were dining with loved ones or meeting new people in a small and inviting space meant for not only having some yummy food but also experimenting with new flavors.

The décor of the restaurant adds perfectly to the experience. When you walk in, you’ll feel like you have been transported to an art space where ’90s hip-hop reigns. It’s a lot of fun to be surrounded by it, and it adds to the experience and makes you feel like you are in quite the funky gallery.

Featuring abstract graffiti and portraits of hip-hop icons like The Notorious B.I.G., the restaurant’s dim lighting that still illuminates the art beautifully and fancy velvet furnishings in deep black, bright white and crimson colors, makes you feel like true VIP invited to a private party.

The Sushi by Bou chefs don’t play when it comes to their craft. They are passionate about the menu for guests and only use the freshest locally and globally sourced fish.

They are also gracious and happy to greet a crowd at their small communal-style table, one that’s passionate about food and explain each bite to each visitor and are happy to answer questions as they take us on a true dining journey. Expect delicious twists all around when it comes to the food and the amazing flavors all united in one.

Diners can select from two signature experiences: a 12-course menu for $65, or a 17-course journey for $125. We also recommend starting your night with selection of handmade cocktails, imported sake and some delicious and rare Japanese whiskeys. The knowledgeable bar staff will be happy to recommend something that fits your tastes and cravings that evening.

The NYC-based hospitality group simplevenue, Sushi By Bou proved to us that they are a unique and fun omakase experience, and the Wynwood location is a welcome addition to a restaurant that delights diners at over 20 nationwide locations.

So, make sure to visit. You will not regret this special night and magical dining experience meant to be enjoyed.

BIOGRAPHY

Drew Limsky joined Lifestyle Media Group in August 2020 as Editor-in-Chief of South Florida Business & Wealth. His first issue of SFBW, October 2020, heralded a reimagined structure, with new content categories and a slew of fresh visual themes. “As sort of a cross between Forbes and Robb Report, with a dash of GQ and Vogue,” Limsky says, “SFBW reflects South Florida’s increasingly sophisticated and dynamic business and cultural landscape.”

Limsky, an avid traveler, swimmer and film buff who holds a law degree and Ph.D. from New York University, likes to say, “I’m a doctor, but I can’t operate—except on your brand.” He wrote his dissertation on the nonfiction work of Joan Didion. Prior to that, Limsky received his B.A. in English, summa cum laude, from Emory University and earned his M.A. in literature at American University in connection with a Masters Scholar Award fellowship.

Limsky came to SFBW at the apex of a storied career in journalism and publishing that includes six previous lead editorial roles, including for some of the world’s best-known brands. He served as global editor-in-chief of Lexus magazine, founding editor-in-chief of custom lifestyle magazines for Cadillac and Holland America Line, and was the founding editor-in-chief of Modern Luxury Interiors South Florida. He also was the executive editor for B2B magazines for Acura and Honda Financial Services, and he served as travel editor for Conde Nast. Magazines under Limsky’s editorship have garnered more than 75 industry awards.

He has also written for many of the country’s top newspapers and magazines, including The New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Miami Herald, Boston Globe, USA Today, Worth, Robb Report, Afar, Time Out New York, National Geographic Traveler, Men’s Journal, Ritz-Carlton, Elite Traveler, Florida Design, Metropolis and Architectural Digest Mexico. His other clients have included Four Seasons, Acqualina Resort & Residences, Yahoo!, American Airlines, Wynn, Douglas Elliman and Corcoran. As an adjunct assistant professor, Limsky has taught journalism, film and creative writing at the City University of New York, Pace University, American University and other colleges.
