Signature entrées like Corvina Seafood and Filet Mignon with risotto round out the menu for a well-balanced dining experience.
Beyond its food, Bonsai Sushi’s commitment to community is central to its mission. The brand has maintained a strong connection to its Hispanic roots while embracing the multicultural fabric of Miami.
