Unique, authentic and unforgettable experience
/ August 2025

Our experience at Omakase was truly unforgettable. The chef's expertise and kindness shone through in every dish, carefully crafted to meet our needs and delight our senses. The waitress's warm smile and attentive service made us feel like family. From the freshness of the fish to the presentation of each dish, every detail was meticulously considered. The chef's passion for sushi was evident in every bite, and his stories added a personal touch to the meal. This Omakase is a culinary gem.

Absolutely amazing experience! Warmly welcomed with hot towels and drinks, the 30+ years of the chef’s expertise shone through every dish. The servers were attentive, friendly, and helpful with translations. Every bite was fantastic, and the farewell wave made us feel special. A true highlight of the trip! Huge thanks to the team and chef for their hospitality. Highly recommend and can’t wait to return!
