MINŌ is South Florida's most intimate omakase experience — where Executive Chef JM Canlas (formerly of MILA Omakase Miami) orchestrates evenings that blur the line between dining and cultural immersion. Ten seats at the counter for omakase. An intimate lounge for sake, small plates, and conversation. Open to all guests, with membership available for those who want to make it a regular part of their life.
meet the chef
Chef Jezhiel Mark “JM” Canlas serves as Executive Chef and Culinary Director for MINŌ and Kapow. Before MINŌ, he served as Chef de Cuisine at MILA Omakase in Miami Beach, where he trained under Executive Chef Reiji Yoshizawa and immersed himself in the discipline of Japan's 72 micro-seasons.
At MINŌ's 10-seat counter, he builds each evening's omakase around shun — the precise moment when an ingredient reaches its peak. The menu is never the same twice, because the season never pauses.
'I'm not creating the menu. The season is. My job is to pay attention — and at a 10-seat counter, I get to bring each guest into that conversation.
make it your regular place.
MINŌ welcomes everyone. But for those who want to make it a regular part of their life, membership offers something more — priority reservations, house account convenience, exclusive events, and a community built around shared appreciation for Japanese craft and culture. Your investment returns more than you put in.
