What You'll Get
If humans are mostly made of water, and fish traditionally inhabit water, fish should naturally occur in the human body. Fix this gap in nature’s logic with today’s Groupon: for $15, you get $30 worth of sushi, sake, and more at Kone in Miami Beach. Within a modern, upscale environment, Kone whips up a multiplicity of inventive, Japanese-Brazilian fusion dishes. Self-conscious connoisseurs can feast on Sushi Kones, savory hand rolls that are designed to be easily eaten without cumbersome chopsticks or implanted finger sequins ($5 and up). For patrons who prefer seafood by the piece, Kone also offers traditional sushi rolls ($6.50 and up), specialty house rolls, knives for cutting, and fresh, mouthmelting sashimi ($5 and up). Round out meals with shrimp and vegetable tempura ($6.50), seaweed salad ($3.75), and fried baby octopus ($5), or treat sweet teeth to filled dessert waffle cones ($5 and up).

About Kone Sushi
Kone Sushi specializes in sushi hand rolls known in Japan as temaki—te, which means hand, and maki, which means roll. These tiny wonders rely on a strong Brazilian influence, and contrary to traditional sushi principles and intense protesting from old-school fishermen, they are crafted in a cone shape. Though Kone Sushi has more than 60 temaki recipes in salmon and tuna, patrons can modify rolls or create their own to specifications for pairing with a wide array of appetizers, salads, sashimi, and traditional-style house rolls.
Located in South Beach less than 1,000 feet from the Atlantic Ocean, Kone Sushi's modern dining room harbors a black-and-white color scheme, with glints of red in chairs and wall segments. In a separate lounge area, diners can also sip on Sakerinha, the sake version of Brazil's most popular liquor drink, or dish on a brazilian waffle treat called brigadeiro, made per tradition with chocolate and fresh fruit.
