*Chef*

Omakase means “I’ll leave it to you” (from Japanese “to entrust”). In the classic style of sushi restaurants, the chef will present a series of plates, beginning with the lightest and proceeding to heavier, richer dishes.

When ordering Omakase, expect the chef to be innovative and surprising in the selection of dishes. Menu ordering is available as well. Located inside The Chophouse Restaurant at the Manchebo Beach Resort & Spa, Omakase also features a bar and comfortable seating with a boutique feel and ambiance. Because the sushi bar has limited seating capacity, reservations are required.
