The Kinsen Omakase Experience
$210 per guest until June 15, 2026. Our new price of $235 per guest will begin on June 15, 2026. No mandatory service charge.
As a gesture of gratitude to our many returning guests, we have decided to postpone our planned price increase for one additional month. It is our way of honoring your continued support and sharing our appreciation with those who have returned to dine with us time and again.
Highlight of our sister restaurants:
Kinsen — Profound, creative, and deeply technical. Rooted in comprehensive Edomae methods — curing, marination, and aging — elevated with select modern techniques such as precise dry aging. We are confident to call our style authentic Japanese Edomae sushi.
Ren — Minimalist, thoughtful, and perfectly harmonious. Ren seamlessly weaves the elegance of traditional Kaiseki together with Edomae sushi, resulting in a balanced and well-rounded omakase.
Iki — A modern high end fusion omakase made for everyone. Ingredients and methods without boundaries (unlike serious Edomae sushi) — where diverse tastes meet refined craftsmanship in a relaxed, enjoyable setting.

Dietary Restrictions
This is an omakase presented in the strictest form. The menu is curated as a progression and cannot be altered to accommodate requests such as no seafood, no fish, or extensive shellfish allergies. While we may consider minor accommodations for certain sensitivities with advance notice, flexibility is limited, and substitutions cannot be guaranteed. Our commitment is to serve authentic Edomae sushi at the highest level of integrity.
