MILA Omakase Hosts Three-Night Chef Collaboration with Two-Michelin-Starred EVVAI Chef Luiz Filipe Souza

MILA Omakase, Miami Beach’s most intimate and design-forward omakase experience by Riviera Dining Group, and part of the globally recognized MILA brand — recently ranked the highest-grossing independent restaurant in the United States by Restaurant Business — welcomes Luiz Filipe Souza, the two-Michelin-starred chef behind EVVAI, for an exclusive three-night chef collaboration, taking place February 19-21. The dinners mark MILA Omakase’s first collaboration of 2026, launching the brand’s Chef Winter Series, with additional collaborations to be announced.

Consistently ranked among Latin America’s 50 Best Restaurants and The World’s 50 Best Restaurants, EVVAI has earned international acclaim for Chef Souza’s authorial cuisine, a deeply researched dialogue between Brazilian ingredients and Italian culinary heritage. Chef Souza previously represented Brazil at the Bocuse d’Or in Lyon and currently serves as President of Bocuse d’Or Brazil, further cementing his role as one of the country’s most influential culinary voices.

For this limited Miami appearance, Chef Souza will work alongside the MILA Omakase culinary team to co-create a bespoke tasting menu that unites Souza’s Brazilian–Italian perspective with MILA Omakase’s refined, precision-driven omakase format. Together, the chefs share a commitment to technique, cultural storytelling, and seasonality, brought to life through a tightly curated omakase experience.

With only ten seats per seating and two nightly seatings, the collaboration offers an exceptionally rare opportunity to experience one of Brazil’s most influential chefs in an intimate, counter-only setting.
