Built around an intimate and highly personalized dining experience between diners and the sushi chef, Michelin-starred and 2022 Eater award winner Mujo is a splurge-worthy destination for omakase. Led by chef J. Trent Harris, who trained under master sushi chefs at Michelin-star establishments Sushi Ginza Onodera and Shuko in New York and Tokyo, this 15-seat omakase restaurant offers Edomae-style sushi. A meal here begins with cocktails at the small bar reserved for guests of the restaurant. Then, during dinner, Harris and his team present exquisite courses of nigiri, beautiful dishes like hakurei turnip tartlets, and nods to other Japanese culinary traditions, including tamagoyaki (Japanese shrimp and egg cake similar to an omelet) and konacha green tea served with dessert. Insider tip: Look for Mujo’s new Japanese supper club, Koshu, opening soon.
