Takeout may not typically be associated with elevated eats, but the pandemic has redefined all the rules of dining. Some South Florida restaurants, like Azabu, LPM Restaurant & Bar, Fiola, Macchialina, and La Mar have created takeout and delivery options that will make you feel as fancy as if you were dining onsite — shoes and pants optional. Order one of these luxe packages to go and make it a bougie night in.
The Den at Azabu
The Den, Azabu’s exclusive omakase experience, recently debuted a luxurious omakase takeout box. The box features a selection of nigiri, seasonal sashimi, cold dishes, and wagyu and uni bara chirashi, all hand-selected by Chef Yasu Tanaka. Priced at $120, the presentation is as beautiful as the contents are delicious. In addition to the omakase takeout option, you can also order all your favorite Azabu items to go as well, like signature rolls, appetizers, and entrees.
Details: Azabu is located at 161 Ocean Dr, Miami Beach. For more information, call (786) 276-0520.

Fiola
Fiola Miami was one of the first spots in the city to step up its takeout game, and you can still enjoy white-glove curbside pickup and elevated delivery options. Browse a selection of fully prepared dinners, or opt for meals you can assemble at home, like pasta kits, locally sourced farm baskets, and a now-iconic seafood bucket. And don’t forget to pair your meal with a bottle of wine, your favorite beer, batched drinks, and even DIY cocktail kits. It all comes packaged beautifully.
