I rarely give five star restaurant reviews, but Kabuto has earned this wholeheartedly. This is an authentic omakase experience and worth starving yourself for and doing a few extra miles.
They have two seatings nightly, reservations required, and they won't start service until your whole party is present. They will, of course ask if you have any food allergies.
They start you off with a palate cleanser 2% sake. It's definitely not at all what you're thinking it might be. It has a mellow plum flavor and is served on ice. It's a great way to start the meal.
I was thrilled with the diversity of the fish we were served. It was a visual feast as well as a cornucopia of flavors. There were things I had never heard of, and some very familiar things.
This is a very intimate spot. Best enjoyed with close friends or as a date night spot. This is definitely not a party people disco joint.
I'm looking forward to to a return trip to this sweet spot!
