Omakase sushi catering experience with premium nigiri presented course by course by a NYC sushi chef

The Art of Omakase, at Your Table

Omakase — "I'll leave it up to you" — is the pinnacle of the Japanese dining tradition. It's an act of trust between diner and chef, where the itamae selects the finest ingredients of the day and crafts a progressive tasting menu that builds in flavor, texture, and complexity. Each course is a surprise. Each piece is a masterwork. The experience is intimate, unhurried, and deeply personal.

Our omakase catering brings this exquisite tradition out of the restaurant and into your world. Whether you're hosting a dinner party in your Manhattan apartment, celebrating an anniversary at a private venue in Brooklyn, or treating your most valued clients to an unforgettable evening, our chef arrives with the day's finest selections — sourced that morning from the Fulton Fish Market and premium Japanese importers — and creates a once-in-a-lifetime dining experience in your own space.

  • Multi-course tasting menu — Typically 10-18 courses, progressing from delicate sashimi through rich, umami-forward pieces, ending with a signature dessert course

Omakase Experience Tiers

We offer three tiers of omakase catering, each designed for different levels of indulgence:

  • Essential Omakase (10 courses) — A refined tasting journey featuring premium nigiri, sashimi, and two specialty courses. An accessible introduction to the omakase format
  • Signature Omakase (14 courses) — Our most popular tier. Includes rare seasonal fish, a sashimi progression, specialty sushi, and a dessert course. The full omakase experience
  • Grand Omakase (18 courses) — The ultimate indulgence. Features the rarest seasonal ingredients — aged otoro, live uni, A5 wagyu tataki, and chef's special creations. An extraordinary evening

Each tier can be customized further with add-ons such as truffle-accented courses, foie gras nigiri, or a handcrafted chirashi finale. We also accommodate dietary restrictions while preserving the integrity and progression of the tasting experience.

Intimate by Design

Omakase is inherently intimate, and we preserve that quality at every scale:

  • Private dinner for 2 — The most romantic culinary experience available. Perfect for proposals, anniversaries, and special date nights
  • Small group (4-8 guests) — Ideal for dinner parties and close celebrations. The chef interacts directly with each guest
  • Intimate gathering (10-20 guests) — A seated, multi-course experience with a single chef or chef pair, maintaining the personal touch
  • Larger events (20-50+ guests) — We adapt the format with multiple omakase stations, allowing each group of guests to enjoy the full experience

We bring a portable sushi counter or use your dining table — whichever creates the best atmosphere. Our chef works cleanly, quietly, and engagingly, making the preparation itself part of the entertainment.
