My Omakase Experience at Omakase SF – Omakase Review!
February 25, 2023/Comments Off on My Omakase Experience at Omakase SF – Omakase Review!
I love an amazing omakase and I’d enjoy one every day if I had the financial means to do so. There’s a restaurant in San Francisco that has Omakase (Michelin Star!) that’s literally called Omakase – located 665 TOWNSEND ST, SAN FRANCISCO, CA 94103.
How I Came About Omakase SF
It’s one of the first results on Yelp when searching for Omakase around the area. My brother loves the finer foods in life and he got a promotion at work and decided to give Omakase a try and he treated me to this wonderful Omakase experience!
Reservations and How Things Work
Reservations are made and you prepay for the meal. They also add a 20% charge and another 6% or something (health mandate?) charge as well so everything really adds up, especially if a person is over $200. At the restaurant, you get to order your drinks or go with the sake / drink pairing. The meal is prepaid so you’ll just pay for any extras at the restaurant after your meal. The menu is pre-set and you enjoy whatever the chef has for that night. Now, get ready for a photo heavy post with captions that describes my omakase review / experience!
Nigiri Time!
The above dishes were pretty good, and afterwards comes with 12 nirigi which we were so excited about! Some kinds we’ve had at other places and others are new to us. YAY!!!
12 Pieces Nirigi Thoughts
That was definitely the highlight of the meal and why most people come to Omakase I believe. I was so impressed with the monkfish liver and was surprised I enjoyed it as much as I did. There were a couple disappointing pieces, but that’s more of me not enjoying those types of fish. The flavors were great all around and the rice was amazing too. Extremely consistent.
Overall Omakase Experience @ Omakase SF
Ahh my omakase review… pretty good! I definitely had a great time here. We had owner Chef Jackson make and serve us so that was a great honor. There was another chef on the other end that seemed to talk a lot more so that would have been cool too, but perhaps the customers he was assigned to asked a lot of questions. We enjoyed the food and some new stuff here. The consistency here really amazed me. So lucky to have tried Omakase @ Omakase!
