"Omakase" is commonly found in high-end Japanese restaurants, where diners ask a chef to recommend selected and seasonal specialties, not only limited to Japan cuisine, but also at prices that are not necessarily expensive.
notion image
The allure of Omakase dining stems from the expectation of the chef's creativity, admiring their mastery in the open kitchen and tasting the freshest ingredients. Tokyo chefs value this culture and incorporate it into a variety of cuisines, whether it's French, Italy or yakiniku.

If you're on a budget and still want to enjoy a meal, we recommend these great chef courses in Tokyo for 10,000 yen, which are definitely worth the money!

🤗 RAMA

Rama topped the list of Tokyo's Best Restaurants thanks to Chef Aoki's elegant, rustic and delicious cuisine.

A spring-to-summer transition speciality is frozen Gnocchi with mackerel and sour raspberry vinegar.
