Absolutely amazing evening with Chef chris and others… the dining EXPERIENCE was amazing at every juncture and inherently flawless. We will be back !
If you haven't done an omakase-style sushi tasting, this is a great introduction, especially at the very accessible price point. The course wasn't quite the same tier as the absolute best omakase I've had in Tokyo, Seattle, and DC, but the prominent places in those cities are easily double or triple the cost compared to here. This is a tremendous value for what you're getting.
Chris and Kazu are friendly and interactive and are engaged in their craft. The overall setting is small and simple - a handful of seats at a sushi counter. Seating is limited; plan on making reservations well in advance or hope for the best to get an open spot from a cancellation.
$60/person for omakase which is available on fridays -sundays. SO WORTH IT. Its not just good food but also an experience. I genuinely felt like i went on trip! They are really skilled with their preparation skill and each piece was so different and made very well in terms of rice:sushi ratio. We also got the drunken whale sake ($34). The chefs are so humble and have great personalities. Very easy to talk to and you can tell that they love what they do. They prepared our food and explained each dish to us. It was intimate as only 7 people were seated for omakase. Hands down - best sushi in charleston.
