Great omakase experience! The chefs are so engaging and knowledgeable about the fish. I love that the toppings weren’t overpowering the flavor of the fish and everything tasted so fresh. I got to try different types of fish I don’t usually see at other omakases like isaki. This place is great for celebrations, high recommend to bring your friends or family to surprise them with a birthday song and house sake shot at the end. Truly a great value omakase.

The fish are very fresh! Uni is sweat. Also, Yuze Peach is taste very good! Is not listed in the menu, but chief recommend us. Tower of Power (Toro, scallop, uni) is very satisfying. Last, miso black cod is amazingly delicious with black truffle on the top.

Just finished eating and already planning my second visit 🤤 Had to recommend this place to everyone! 💰89 for 14 courses is honestly such a steal. Left feeling ridiculously satisfied. ✨Loved that the chef personally introduced the fresh ingredients of the day before we started. The menu changes seasonally too — apparently it’s almost the end of octopus season, so definitely get it while you can! 🍣The course lineup was stacked: scallop, wagyu, uni, caviar, foie gras… literally all the good stuff. And the hand rolls at the end completely stole the show — we ordered two extra. 🔥Wagyu + scallop + uni An insane combination. One bite almost didn’t fit in my mouth 😂 🔥Unagi + foie gras Lightly torched on top, rich and buttery in the best way possible. 🧑‍🍳The chef also made the whole experience so fun and welcoming. He explained every dish and patiently answered all our sake questions even though we didn’t end up drinking because of work the next day. Amazing food and amazing hospitality

Had such a great experience at Zen Sushi Omakase. The entire 14-course omakase was paced perfectly, and you can really tell the chef adjusts the timing based on each table, which made the experience feel relaxed and thoughtful instead of rushed. The progression of the meal was super well balanced. It started with lighter white fish like flounder and sea bream, then gradually moved into richer cuts like striped jack, isaki, and salmon before going full luxury mode with uni, caviar, wagyu, foie gras, otoro, and black truffle. One of the most memorable bites was their layered wagyu + scallop + foie gras piece. Every layer added something different — rich wagyu fat, sweet scallop, then the creamy foie gras at the end. Definitely one of those “wow” bites you keep thinking about after dinner. The wagyu toast with monkfish liver and caviar was also incredible. Crispy toast soaked with wagyu fat, creamy ankimo spread, and salty caviar on top created such a rich but balanced bite. It felt like a really fun NYC-style fusion omakase moment. Another highlight was the lightly torched otoro with black truffle. The tuna completely melted in my mouth and the truffle aroma slowly opened up as y

What an amazing deal for such high-quality omakase! You will get 14 dishes for just $89. It’s a well-balanced menu with 2 appetizers, 10 delicious nigiri, one super sushi from chef and a handroll. All fish is shipped from Japan and it was incredibly fresh. One fish isaki I have never tried before, it’s a premium white fish - absolute perfection. Great sake list to choose from at affordable price as well. I also got a surprise bday gift from chef! Very nice touch. Highly recommend to check out this amazing place!
