What is Omakase?

Omakase translates to “the chefs’ hands/I will leave it up to the chef” and is equivalent to a Chef’s Tasting Menu. It’s a fine tradition that gives the chef a creative freedom and the customer a memorable dining experience.

What is your menu like?

Makizushico offers an Edomae style tasting menu, consisting of small plates, a selection of seasonal nigiri, and dessert. Seasonal nigiri takes center stage in our omakase. Our tasting menu offers guests a variety of sushi, requests for additional sushi are welcome. The sushi commonly known around the world today is a combination of fresh raw fish, and cooked rice which is seasoned with vinegar. However, this is only a single variation within many other types of sushi that exist in Japan. This particular type of sushi is a rather modern Japanese cuisine initially created by the Edo (old name for Tokyo) fast food businesses during the 1820’s.

Do you offer a beverage pairing?

Yes, our beverage pairing is comprised of a mix of sake and wine and it costs $60.

How many omakase seats and seating’s do you have per day?

We can accommodate 12 guests per seating. Omakase is served all day. We also serve omakase during our weekend brunches accommodating up to 12 guests per seating. 4 Guests are the largest parties for counter reservations.

***Beverages, Tax, and Tip is NOT included with the Omakase price***

What is your cancellation policy?

To maintain the highest quality, we only prepare for the number of reservations each evening. Cancellations made less than 24 hours before reservation time are subject to a $40 fee per person. A NO SHOW or cancellation the DAY of will be subject to a $80 fee per person. For parties of 5 or more, cancellations made less than 48 hours before reservation time will be subject to a $80 fee per person.

How long does a seating last?

A typical seating will last about 2 hours.

What happens if I arrive late?

Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee the full menu to guests who are more than 15 minutes late. We will do our best to accommodate. But since we have a strict 2-hour window between seating’s it may be difficult to guarantee the full menu. You will still be charged the full amount of the omakase regardless of consuming the full menu.

*** Please keep in mind we only hold the seats for 15 minutes for reservations, any lateness after 30 minutes will be considered a no show and will be charged the no show policy/cancellation policy. No exceptions. Thank you***

Do you accommodate dietary restrictions?

Yes, with certain exceptions. We must be made aware of dietary restrictions at least 48 hours before reservation time, or else they may not be accommodated. Unfortunately certain dietary restrictions, such as requests for no rice, cannot be accommodated. We cannot accommodate vegetarian guests. We can accommodate kosher and gluten free guests, with 48 hours notice. Please be sure to contact us at least 72 hours before your meal to confirm that your dietary needs can be met. Guests with dietary restrictions who have not familiarized themselves with the policies stated above remain subject to our cancellation policy.

Can I wear perfume/cologne?

We ask that guests limit the amount of perfume they wear, so as not to interfere with the experience of other guests. Please be conscious of the amount of perfume or cologne you apply before your meal.
