This Michelin-star Korean steakhouse from New York is opening soon in Miami
Getting a reservation at New York’s Cote, a Michelin-star Korean steakhouse, is not an easy task.
Now, lovers of luxury steak can try their luck in Miami.
The creation of hospitality entrepreneur Simon Kim, Cote is opening its first location outside New York next month in the Design District. The 5,892-square-foot restaurant will seat 100 and specialize in prime cuts that it ages in an in-house, a dry-aging room that also acts as a design element.
Cote is the only Korean steakhouse in the world to earn a coveted Michelin star, so it’s no surprise the focus is on the beef. Specialties include American Wagyu with a Beef Marbling Score of 10 or above (trust us — this is good). You can choose between dry-aged New York strips or ribeyes or the Japanese A5 Wagyu from Miyazaki Prefecture.
Diners can also choose from two different tasting experiences: The Butcher’s Feast, four selections of the chef’s favorite cuts, or, for the true aficionado, a 10-course Steak Omakase experience.

Simon Kim is ready for South Florida to experience his restaurant.
