Corvina Seafood Grill Brings a Late-Night Pulse to Boca
Corvina After Dark: Where the Night Bites Back and Boca Learns to Stay Out a Little Longer.
January 10th, 2026
There’s a moment at Corvina when the evening loosens its grip on the clock. Conversations stretch. Music settles into a steady pulse. Plates continue to arrive with intention, but the night begins to unfold on its own terms.
By Friday and Saturday nights, that rhythm takes on a new shape.
At 8 p.m., Corvina Beach Club comes alive, guiding the dining room into late-night territory inspired by coastal destinations where dinner is only the beginning. The influence of St. Tropez and Ibiza is felt not through imitation, but through flow. Guests linger. Tables turn into gathering points. The energy builds naturally rather than all at once.
Live DJs shape the room’s momentum, encouraging movement without overwhelming conversation. Champagne rituals punctuate the night, arriving with sparklers and glowing neon, small celebratory moments that feel earned rather than staged. The atmosphere invites guests to stay present, to let the evening stretch without resistance.
Food remains the anchor.
The Sushi Tower arrives as a shared experience, designed to slow the table down. At its base, the Salmon Sunset Roll layers spicy tuna beneath salmon, avocado, and sriracha, delivering richness with control. Above it, a Chef’s Choice maki roll and clean cuts of sashimi and nigiri, including tuna, salmon, and hamachi, create a progression of flavor and texture. Seaweed salad and pickled ginger provide contrast, offering brief pauses between bites.
Presentation is intentional. As Executive Sous Chef Julian Bernal notes, the visual moment sets the tone before the first taste. Plates are composed to spark anticipation, whether it’s a seafood tower gliding through the room or a dish placed with quiet confidence.
That philosophy carries into the Bar Harbor Roll, built on fresh crab meat layered with avocado and finished with Maine lobster. A light torch brings warmth to the eel sauce and spicy mayo, enhancing depth while keeping the seafood forward.
Beyond the raw bar, the menu widens its reach.
Beef empanadas arrive golden and balanced, filled with Argentinian-style beef, bell peppers, onions, celery, and black olives. An almond romesco adds warmth and nuttiness, grounding the dish without weighing it down. It’s a natural table companion, easy to share, hard to ignore.
The lobster mac and cheese provides a different kind of comfort. Built on a béchamel base and finished with Parmesan and feta, it avoids excess. Each order begins with a full one-pound lobster, broken down and folded directly into the pasta, yielding generous pieces that feel integral to every bite rather than ornamental.
Freshness guides every decision. Seafood is selected by season and quality, often arriving the same day it’s prepared. If something isn’t at its best, it doesn’t make the plate. Late-night service doesn’t alter that standard. According to Bernal, the guest dining near close deserves the same care as the first table of the evening.
Some dishes reflect that discipline more personally.
The octopus, carefully poached and finished with almond romesco, panzanella, and olive oil, demands patience and precision. Too long and it loses structure. Too short and it resists the fork. It’s the dish Bernal points to when asked which bite best represents the kitchen’s approach.
Throughout the room, visual moments continue to shape the experience. Tableside fish displays draw attention. Seafood towers pause conversations. These elements don’t distract from the meal. They reinforce it, turning dining into something remembered rather than rushed.
Corvina Beach Club doesn’t push the night forward. It lets it breathe.
It’s where Boca Raton finds a late-night cadence rooted in food, atmosphere, and connection, leaving guests with the sense that the evening unfolded exactly as it should have.

This 10-seat omakase opening in Miami is about to be one of the hardest reservations to get. Takay on Coral Way combines high-level sushi, intentional design, and a guest experience that feels personal from start to finish.
March 17, 2026
Miami, if you love a beautifully done omakase, this is one to have on your radar.
There is a new omakase concept opening this spring on Coral Way, and it already feels like the kind of place people will be trying to get into early. Takay is an intimate 10-seat experience created by founders Glen Kotlyarski and Yoni Matz, bringing together serious culinary pedigree with a very intentional, guest-focused vision.
Let’s start with the people behind it, because that is really what defines this concept.
Chef Glen Kotlyarski leads the culinary experience, bringing more than 2 decades of fine-dining expertise. His background includes the Jean Georges group and Miami’s Michelin-starred Hidden, and that level of precision and discipline is felt in every course. His approach draws from traditional Edomae sushi techniques, while staying grounded in seasonality and balance.
Alongside him, co-founder Yoni Matz brings a strong hospitality perspective shaped by years of building and operating restaurant concepts. His influence is clear in the overall experience, which is designed to feel warm, welcoming, and engaging rather than overly formal or intimidating.
And you feel that from the moment you arrive.
The space, designed by Japan based architecture firm KTX, is quietly stunning. Guests enter through a Japanese Zen garden, setting a calm and intentional tone before stepping inside. The interior blends traditional Japanese craftsmanship with subtle Miami influence, featuring natural materials, soft lighting, and a sculptural wooden wave installation inspired by The Great Wave off Kanagawa. The entire room is designed to slow you down and bring your attention fully into the experience.
Takay’s omakase follows a classic Edomae style, with two nightly seatings, each centered on a 17- or 20-course progression. Seafood is flown in from Japan and paired with seasonal ingredients from local farms, allowing the menu to evolve continuously.
The experience moves through sashimi, nigiri, and composed dishes, with each course prepared directly in front of guests and thoughtfully explained. It feels interactive, personal, and immersive, making the entire evening feel intentional.
It strikes that rare balance where the experience feels polished and high-level, but still comfortable enough to fully enjoy without overthinking it.
When it opens, Takay will offer a 17-course signature omakase at $225 per person and a 20-course extended omakase at $275. Each seating includes a welcome beverage, with optional sake, champagne, and wine pairings available.
Takay is located at 2296 Coral Way in Miami and will be open Tuesday through Saturday with seatings at 6 pm and 9 pm.
In a city known for large, high-energy dining scenes, Takay introduces something a little more intimate and intentional. It is the kind of place that focuses on the details, and those are usually the ones that stand out the most.
Reservations are expected to be limited. Learn more HERE
