Wako continues to impress. It is like eating omakase in Japan (and I say this having dined here 48 hours after flying from Tokyo).
Incredible Michelin star experience from front to back. Sushi was the best I ever had and the omakase course was beautiful and filling. Staff was friendly and kind. Truly an unprecedented experience I will return to
Excellent omakase dinner, great sushi and the pacing was on point!
