Definitely worth the hunt to find this place. What a nice experience. Really nice atmosphere great soft lighting, music a bit loud, service was excellent. All of our dishes were beautifully plated and were super yummy. Even though the wine list is incredibly small and not very well thought out or put together. I will go back for the food and the service and have a wine free night.

An interesting fusion on Asian & Latin cuisines offering bold, intense and original flavors. My favorite was the Darkened Cod in a Sofrito sauce. The restaurant sits few people making the experience quite personal. Recommended!

If you dine in Miami, you know the difficulties there are when deciding on a place to eat. The many (many) options to choose from. Is it actually good, or is it just overhyped? Are the plates Instagram worthy, but not tastebud worthy? However, once you sift through these questions and the array of restaurants you can reserve a table at, you’ll start to find the gems. The places that do good food, good service, and good vibes. Zitz Sum is one of those places. Not surprising of course, given their bib gourmand status. But it’s another thing to actually try the plates that earned this recognition, which you totally should. To start things off, the ambience in the place was great and our waiter was fantastic. He was super knowledgeable about the menu, filled us in on what dishes are new/seasonal (check out my pic of the menu) and which are mainstays, and gave us his recommendations. Lucky for us, nearly everything we were thinking about ordering was similar to the plates he was ready to suggest. We got the bing bread, steak tartar, wahoo crudo, wonton in brodo, and charred cabbage. The bing bread was served hot and soft and the sweet Florida honey butter it came with was divine. The steak tartar was my favorite dish of the night and I haven’t stopped thinking about it since. The beef was tender and seasoned well, and the ramen egg it sat in was perfectly chewy and salty. This is a steak tartar like you’ve never had before. The wahoo crudo was unique and I was hesitant at first about the thin banana slice its topped with (I’m not a fan of bananas), but I trusted the process and chef and all the flavors really came together and paired well with each other. The wonton in brodo was my second favorite dish of the night. The broth was flavorful and cozy, I was literally sipping it after all the wontons were eaten. And the wontons itself? Soft and packed with tasty chicken. Finally, the charred cabbage. Don’t sleep on this dish! It was more fulfilling and flavorful than you ever thought a cabbage could be, and the char on it gave it a nice punch of heat. At the end of our meal, we talked other Miami spots with our waiter, exchanged restaurant recommendations, and learned about Zitz Sums’ sister izakaya restaurant (called Dojo, which we will definitely be trying). Zitz Sum is subtle, yet glamorous. It makes you remember how special dining in Miami can (and should) be.

We came here for a date night. The service was great and the ambiance of the restaurant was really intimate and quiet. Overall, the food was delicious and we enjoyed it but it wasn’t stellar. For the price point, I expected more. Regardless, it was enjoyable just not sure if memorable. Except the dessert and the winter salad – they were incredible!

Flavors were well balanced and seasonal, and the team was knowledgeable about each course. The tasting menu was well paced, with every dish offering something distinct. As more parties arrived, the ambiance became a bit loud, and the seating could have been more comfortable. That said, the pricing felt fair for the quality and creativity. Overall, a very positive dining experience.

Our server Gabriel was awesome, and the hostess was super friendly and helpful. We did the tasting menu; very fun experience! The bell pepper cocktail is superrrrrr delicious, I’d go back just to have it. The portions were on the smaller side but still very filling and tasty ♡. Had a great experience for our anniversary, the entire service throughout the night was wonderful.

While the service and atmosphere were pleasant and the food was good, it didn’t quite live to our expectations. The beef tartare was definitely our favorite dish.

It is one of my favorite places for food in Coral Gables. It is a small almost hidden awesome place. Everything is so delicious. The Denver steak and the rice are perfect!
