Brickell Switches: Sushi Maki Takes Over Momi Gyoza Space; Miami Smoker’s Pop-Up Takes Over Maki Space

Lots of changes have made their way to the Brickell area. First up in Sushi Maki’s big move.... to the other side of the street, where it will be taking over the former Momi Gyoza space at 1036 South Miami Avenue. This will make the restaurant double in size, according to a press release. It’ll be a mash up of fast casual and regular sit-down dining, where guests will order at a counter then take a seat to be served on by a waiter. With the new space comes new menu items too like sushi "burritos" and the trendy shaved ice cream. [EaterWire]
