First time having Omakase, and the service was incredible! Everyone was so positive and lovely and the chef was extremely excited and you could tell he loved his work. The food was delicious and beautifully made. I’m no expert since it was my first Omakase but I’m told that their price is very reasonable for what you get.

We came for an anniversary and it was an great experience. We did the tasting menu ($98 for 10 pieces of sushi, each one better than the last). We also really liked the waygu sushi. Incredible attention to detail and really attentive service from Tomo (the chef) and the rest of the staff. Would strongly recommend

Completely blew us away!! I’ve been a few times before but the most recent visit was definitely amazing. All the fish was prepared to perfection and the fish was so fresh. Love the 2 options of uni available. The anago took us by surprised and it was amazing! The dessert was also a hitter. Loved that it wasn’t too sweet. Definitely one of our go to sushi places now!

I’ll start off by saying the chef was very knowledgeable and it was a great experience to sit right upfront and have the tasting menu. The dish was well thought out with the order of sushi that you eat.

Masterful Omakase from Wako with excellent cuts of fish, helpful and attentive servers, and dishes that were very small yet piqued my curiosity. But was it worth it? I’ll let you be the judge. For three people, the total ended up being ~$500 and we were only allowed to be in the restaurant for 1 hour.

AMAZING!!! I read about their history online, and had to check it out. Traveling solo, I wanted a cool bar to sit, and no doubt some awesome Sushi sounded fun. Lemme tell you something – THIS PLACE IS FRIGGIN AWESOME!!!! The chefs tasting was a MANDATORY! In addition, I got 2 other items and both were equally as delicate, fine, and sophisticated as the rest. Some bubbles and some hot Sake made for a perfect night!

Food was phenomenal. Fish was fresh, some were buttery and melted in your mouth, and others were complimented well with the included toppings. Just an overall very thorough experience with the tasting menu. However, the service was subpar off the bat. I had higher expectations given the restaurant’s reputation, but the hostess/ server was quite rude. We were sat next to the door which was left open “for ventilation” but the wind was unbearably cold. When I asked if the door could be shut slightly I was told to “just wear a jacket”. I even requested to switch tables as an alternative but it was refused as well. Very disappointing to say the least given how wonderful the food was. Bottom line: There’s more to a culinary experience than just the food.

Came for the $95 sushi tasting menu and was not disappointed. The fish quality was superb and melted in your mouth. Our sushi chef was excellent at his job and presented the dishes beautifully. Servers were attentive and treated us well.

Amazing food, authentic and at the same time creative flavors and technique. Totally worth the start. The only reason why I gave Wako 4 stars is the cleanliness of the bathroom. Some may say that I’m being too picky but IMO when it comes to fine dining with a Michelin star badge it’s fair to expect high standards throughout the experience and that part wasn’t. The food was definitely up to the standard, it was hands down amazing.
