We are in your hands, Chef.
Tetsuya Wakuda, one of the world’s leading Japanese chefs, is opening Wakuda, his first restaurant in the U.S., on June 25 in The Venetian. Omakase dining, in which multiple courses are created according to the chef’s preference, artistry, available ingredients and seasonality, will be a signature offering at Wakuda.
Omakase dishes, often a single bite of resplendent flavor, are prepared on the spot by the chef. Typically, there is no written menu. Part of the pleasure of omakase is surrending to surprise. At Wakuda, only 10 seats will be devoted to omakase dining.
The restaurant also will serve an à la carte menu that blends traditional and modern Japanese cooking.
