OMAKASE

Birmingham’s first authentic Omakase counter experience.


Chef-led tasting at the counter · Fixed sessions · Limited seating

At Gaijin, Omakase is not simply a menu. It is a conversation between chef and guest. Derived from the Japanese phrase meaning “I leave it to you”, Omakase places your trust entirely in the hands of our chef. Each course is selected, prepared, and served in the moment,  guided by seasonality, produce quality, and instinct.

This is not dining in a rush. This is dining with intention.

Seated at our bar, you will experience a progression of carefully curated courses, from delicate starters, to precise cuts of sashimi, composed nigiri, all presented directly by the chef who prepares them.
 

Every detail matters: the temperature of the rice · the balance of acidity · the cut of the fish · the order of each course.
 

Our Omakase changes regularly. It reflects what is best that day, not what is printed on paper. We ask guests to arrive on time; if you are more than 15 minutes late, you may miss certain dishes. Please come with an open mind. Please come with trust.

Because Omakase is not just about eating. It is about surrendering control and discovering something you may not have chosen yourself.
