Omakase Ichi

"Echoing the reviews so far, this is a first rate experience for anyone who wants to try an affordable Omakase on SI. Yes, for Omakase $100-115 (cant really recall exact amount) it is affordable. Its an experience unlike anything else on the island. 16 playful, vibrant and mostly superb courses utilizing expensive ingredients but mostly letting the main ingredients shine.

"There is no need to travel to Brooklyn or Manhattan if I craved for sushi no more !! I love how the place is designed very modern colored but yet also has the traditional sushi bar set up. Reservations are needed because they do a whole sushi bar presentation, so everyone must arrive at the same time. Sushi was great, fresh, and yummy. My favorite is uni and the wauyu piece. The service is exceptional. You'll feel welcome once you walk in. Waitress Annie definitely knows their drink menu well on how to pair with the sushi. Me and my girls enjoy it so much here! Will definitely come back for more!"

"My husband and I visited Omakase Ichi a few weekends ago to celebrate his birthday, and every aspect of the evening was absolutely perfect. From the moment we walked in, we were impressed by the warm and inviting atmosphere. The highlight of our evening was the incredible 17-course omakase menu. The fish was incredibly fresh and buttery, and the attention to detail in the plating was extraordinary. Each dish was thoughtfully presented on unique, hand-selected serving dishes, adorned with colorful flowers and garnishes that added an artistic touch. There wasn't a single course that didn't delight our taste buds, but a few notable favorites were the Monkfish liver, the crunchy tuna tartar, and the seared Wagyu topped with the creamiest uni I've ever tasted. Each bite was a flavor explosion, leaving us eager for the next course. What truly set the experience apart was the highly personal touch. The chef's dedication to perfection was evident in every dish, and the special treatment for my husband's birthday made the evening even more memorable. The staff went above and beyond to ensure we had a fantastic time. If you're looking for an exceptional dining experience with extraordinary food and impeccable service, I highly recommend Omakase Ichi. It's a culinary adventure you won't want to miss!"

"Dining at Omakase Ichi was exceptional. The minimalist decor and intimate sushi bar created a serene atmosphere. The service was impeccable, with attentive staff and an engaging chef. The sake pairings perfectly complemented each course. Highly recommend for an unforgettable dining experience."

"Wow, I cannot give enough praise to this establishment. Starting with the very first impressions, I was blown away! Omakase is already a very niche experience for Staten Island. Pair it with the speakeasy feel that boasts eclectic, modern Japanese atmosphere and it gives you an experience that takes you outside of your home city. The selection of cocktails and sake was great and the staff is very knowledgeable in regard to recommendations/pairings. The chef is an absolute genius! The 17 course menu was top tier. About 80% of the ingredients come from Japan, so everything is fresh and beautifully hand crafted by chef. We will be back!"
