Gekkō is a japanese-inspired steakhouse and lounge from the minds of groot hospitality’s david grutman and the recording artist bad bunny.

Located in miami’s thriving brickell neighborhood, gekkō immerses patrons in a fusion of elevated steakhouse surroundings with the modernity–and precision–of japanese cuisine. Signature dishes include premium steak cuts, jaw-dropping sushi inventions, and delicious seafood appetizers. A bespoke cocktail program, an extensive wine list and bottle service offerings complement the menu.

Gekkō’s aesthetic is lush, luxe and jewel-toned. With design accents like custom wallpaper, dark and rich palettes and hints of soft golden light, the restaurant transports visitors to an intimate, rare nocturnal world. As it happens, the word “Gekkō” itself translates from Japanese to English as “moonlight.”

    Food was delicious and the service stupendous. Highly recommend the wagyu steak and definitely remember to leave room for the lava cake!

    I won’t go back. The hostess wanted to seat us in a hallway next to the servers work station where extra tables had been placed. We asked for a different table and we were given one only to be moved back to the hallway 15 minutes into our service. I should have left right then. Ruined the whole experience. And regardless of where one was seated the tables are all on top of one another with no room in between. And the food was only okay - nothing David Grutman should be proud of.

    My reservation was at 10.30pm but they were able to give us our table at 12:00pm. It was a nice place but they cannot control the reservations according to their hours.

    Everything was perfect and amazing except for the cocktails. Tried 4 different ones off their signature cocktail menu and all of them were terrible. The food and service were beyond though, so we’ll definitely be back regardless! But will probably stick to beer.

    I love trying nice “fancy” or “expensive” restaurants sometimes the food is not all that, sometimes the service is mid, it’s just the name or the looks… this is the first time I can say the food was worth every penny, everything was delicious and the service was on point, quick, attentive but not annoying, very respectful, only thing I would change is the hostess, they treat you like they’re better than you cause they work there 😅 but that’s most places in Miami. Everything else is to die for🥰
