Temakase Sushi Bar From NYC's East Village To Open In South Florida At Atlantic Village In Hallandale Beach

The popular Japanese handroll sushi bar which made waves with its first location in New York’s trendy East Village will open their first brick-and-mortar location in South Florida after hosting a successful pop-up experience at the Sagamore Hotel in Miami Beach. Temakase will join the dynamic roster of restaurant tenants at the mixed-use Hallandale Beach lifestyle plaza, Atlantic Village. Atlantic Village is being developed by the Mexico City-based Group Eco. Temakase is part of Atlantic Village’s third phase, set for completion by the end of 2021.

“We are thrilled to welcome Temakase to the compelling retail and restaurant mix at Atlantic Village,” Grupo Eco Real Estate Developer Daniel Chaberman said. “Our goal was to bring unique and fun restaurant and retail options to the area, and we are excited to see it all coming together.”

Founded by restauranters Anthony Shnayderman and Liron Michaeli, Temakase offers an authentic omakase experience with a more affordable price tag. Omakase is a Japanese term that roughly translates to “I’ll leave it up to you,” meaning the chef curates the menu with a variety of handroll tasting options. In addition to the chef’s choice menus, customers also have the option of choosing from an à la carte menu.

“Temakase offers the experience of getting to sit in front of a chef who will custom create a meal for you using the freshest ingredients,” Shnayderman said. “After seeing how well our concept was received at the Sagamore, we wanted a permanent South Florida location and Atlantic Village checked all the boxes.”

Located at 601, 701 and 801 N. Federal Hwy., Atlantic Village is bringing a wide variety of restaurants to its diverse retail lineup that also includes service-oriented retail, entertainment, office and medical tenants.

The first phase is fully opened and features many food-and-beverage tenants including: Crudos Fusion Art, Doggi’s Arepa Bar, Dr. Limon Ceviche Bar, Juice Mafia and The Blues Burgers. Phase two restaurant tenants include Holi Vegan Kitchen, Crema Gourmet, Gelato-Go, Jaffa Israel Kitchen and Wine Bar and La Piazzetta.

The development is located at 1000 E Hallandale Beach Blvd. Hallandale Beach and is estimated to be completed in 2025.

Oasis Hallandale will combine a live, work, and play lifestyle and community with boating, the nearby beaches, Gulfstream Park, the Hollywood Beach Boardwalk, Aventura Mall, Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, and the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport all in one prime location.

“We are thrilled to play such a significant role in the growth of the city by delivering such a beautifully-designed core development to Hallandale Beach,” said developer Giuseppe Iadisernia, founder of Hallandale Oasis 2019 LLC, who purchased the 10-acre site in 2015. Iadisernia recently revealed new designs for the mixed-use concept to showcase the commercial and residential vision of the project. “This concept will elevate the city’s social spaces and offerings for residents and visitors alike.”

The residential portion will be made up of 500 multifamily units in two 25-story residential towers. Residences will range from 1-3 bedrooms and 891-1,843 square feet and will be equipped with floor-to-ceiling windows, walk-in closets, imported Italian cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and balconies with glass railings. Residents will be able to enjoy luxury-level amenities that will fit any needs, such as a golf simulator, indoor and outdoor movie theatres, a fitness and wellness center, a yoga lawn, a ping-pong room, a mini soccer field, storage, a barbecue and fire pit areas and pet park, a splash-pad for children, poolside cabanas and 24-hour lobby attendants.

Oasis Hallandale will have five buildings dedicated to commercial spaces, with 59,219 square feet of retail and restaurant space, 34,691 square feet of office space, and 1,486 parking spaces. Lush, green urban parks will decorate the area throughout, making it a perfect location for public gatherings.

“The interest from the community has been tremendous,” said Norma Campos, Sales Director of Oasis Realty company, the in-hour real estate firm that is exclusively handling all sales. “This project is delivering an iconic centerpiece for this beautiful destination, offering the walkability and convenience that people are looking for while remaining close to the beach.”

Oasis Hallandale’s state-of-the-art spaces are attracting many eager tenants. Sales were launched for the first two buildings of the commercial phase, with 60% of spaces already under reservation. The sales launch for the entire project is scheduled to follow later this year.
