Inside Scoop

  • Reservations are extremely difficult to get; plan months in advance and be ready to book right when they open.
  • The omakase menu is predominantly chicken, so be prepared for a chicken-centric experience.
  • The dining experience is a 2-3 hour procession of dishes, so settle in and enjoy the pace.
  • While the food is consistently praised, some guests have noted issues with perceived favoritism in service or portioning.
  • The menu doesn't rotate frequently, so repeat visits might offer a similar selection of dishes.
