June 01, 2024

What Is Omakase?

Omakase is a Japanese phrase that means "I’ll leave it to you." 
In omakase-style dining, the customer leaves everything to the chef to enjoy the best ingredients of the day and the chef's recommendations.
The charm of omakase is that a different menu is served each time, providing the guest with discoveries and surprises.

Let's look at some of Tokyo's popular sushi restaurants offering an omakase menu.
