Momi Market is Brickell's standout Japanese food marketplace concept by Michelin-trained Chef Takashi Terashima, who trained for decades under Japanese masters in Amsterdam and Bangkok before arriving in Miami. Japan-sourced fish — including Hokkaido uni, kinmedai, and seasonal scallops — drives a concise menu of don bowls, sashimi, and handmade sushi rolls.

About
Momi Market opened in Brickell in 2022, bringing the culinary vision of Japanese chef Takashi Terashima to South Florida. Terashima began his cooking career in Japan at 16 and went on to work at Michelin-starred Japanese restaurants Yamazato and Sazanka Teppanyaki in Amsterdam, as well as high-end Japanese kitchens in Bangkok, before serving as personal chef to the founder of the AMAN Group. His concept at Momi Market is fashioned after the casual Japanese marketplace model — bright, counter-focused, and ingredient-driven — where customers can experience Michelin-caliber sushi and donburi at accessible price points. Fish is flown directly from Japan, with regular menu appearances of Hokkaido uni, large-eye kinmedai snapper, and Hokkaido scallops. The sake selection is one of the most thoughtfully curated in Brickell.
