An exclusive counter
Eight seats, facing the open kitchen. That number is the point of the place, not a limitation of it.
Omakase runs on ingredients bought in small quantities and used the same week. A large dining room forces a kitchen to buy what keeps, in volumes that guarantee it sells — which rules out most of what makes a counter worth sitting at. Keeping the room small is what lets the chef buy the best of a small catch rather than a lot of something ordinary.
Behind the counter is a handful of private tables for guests who would rather eat à la carte, or talk without an audience. Service runs straight through, so nobody is moved on mid-course to clear the seat.
How the evening runs
You tell us first
Allergies, dislikes, anything you would rather not be served. Say it at booking and again at the counter, before the first course.
The chef decides
No menu arrives. The sequence is built from what came in this week and adjusted as the meal goes on.
One piece at a time
Sushi is handed straight across, not plated. Eat it right away — the rice is still warm and the nori is still crisp.
You know the price
Most omakase counters hand over a bill with one number at the end. Ours is fixed before you sit. Only upgrades change it.
The conversation is part of it
Sitting at a counter and saying nothing for two hours is a waste of the seat. Our chef speaks English and Japanese, and would rather be asked.
What came in this week. Why the kinmedai has been held back a few more days. Which piece he would put last if it were up to him. Whether the thing you just ate is meant to taste like that — it usually is, but ask anyway.
If you are new to omakase, say so. It changes how the meal is paced and how much gets explained along the way.
Before you book
- Service
One continuous dinner service, 18:00 – 01:00. Closed every Thursday.
- How long it takes
Allow around two hours for an omakase course. À la carte is quicker, and can be paced to whatever you need.
- Group size
The counter suits one to four. Larger groups are better at the tables — tell us the number and we will suggest the seating.
- Children
Welcome at the tables. The counter is a long, quiet, two-hour sequence, which is a lot to ask of a small child.
- Drinks
We serve alcohol throughout opening hours, so the bar works as a place to sit for a drink without eating a full course.
- Notice
Omakase and the snow crab rice need at least one day. À la carte can be ordered on arrival, subject to seats.
