Omakase Singapore 2026: 7 Best Counters From $68, and Why Lunch Costs Half of Dinner

Omakase has a reputation for being the most expensive way to eat in Singapore, and the reputation is built almost entirely on dinner prices. The cheapest full omakase on this list is $68++ at lunch, and two different counters charge it: Sushi Yujo's Ai at Amara Hotel and Sushi Jin's Kawa at Shaw Centre, the Les Amis Group counter that flies fish in from Toyosu three times a week. Sit at either of those same counters after 6pm and the cheapest menu on the board is $148++ and $168++ respectively, so the room, the chef and the fish stay the same while the bill roughly doubles. That pattern holds all the way up: Fat Cow runs its Shiki Omakase at $88++ for lunch and $98++ at dinner, Ki-sho opens at $168++ on a weekday lunch against $280++ in the evening, IYASAKA by Hashida at Raffles Sentosa charges $200++ at lunch and starts at $450++ at dinner, and two-Michelin-starred Shoukouwa at One Fullerton runs $380++ at lunch and $680++ for its EN dinner set. The one live discount we could verify is at DOMO in Fairmont Singapore, which is publishing a 1-for-1 Kiwami Omakase, five courses at $220 for two. Every price below was read off each restaurant's own website, menu PDF or promotions page in September 2026, and all of them are quoted ++, meaning before 10% service charge and 9% GST.

Omakase in Singapore starts a lot lower than its reputation suggests, and the same counter usually charges two very different prices depending on what time you sit down.

> Quick view: cheapest full omakase is $68++ at lunch, at both Sushi Yujo and Sushi Jin. The cheapest dinner menu at those same two counters is $148++ and $168++. Only one live discount: DOMO's 1-for-1 Kiwami at $220 for two.

Sushi Yujo: the $68 lunch that is the cheapest full omakase in Singapore, with five rungs above it

A 13-seat counter plus private rooms on the second floor of Amara Hotel in Tanjong Pagar, open since 2022 and run by Singaporean chef Desmond Fong, who builds the menus around aburi sushi and cooked courses rather than a straight Edomae progression. Lunch is where the value sits: the omakase ladder starts at Ai $68, then Rikai $98, En $148, Shinrai $198 and Shinsetsu $198, and there is a separate lunch set from $48 if you just want the wagyu don. Dinner is omakase only, six selections: Sapoto $148 and En $148 for smaller appetites or a sushi-led meal, Hogo $198 and Chusei $198 in the middle, and the two signature menus where Chef Fong's seasonal creations appear, Yujo $288 and Shinzoku $348. The $68 to $148 step between the cheapest lunch and the cheapest dinner is the widest value gap on this page in percentage terms at the entry level, and $68++ works out at $81.53 once 10% service charge and 9% GST are added. Seafood is flown in four times a week from Toyosu Market. Open daily, 12pm to 3pm (last order 2.30pm) and 6.30pm to 10.30pm (last order 9.30pm), at 165 Tanjong Pagar Road, Amara Hotel #02-26. Best for: a first omakase, and anyone who wants to try the format without committing three figures.

Sushi Jin: the same $68 lunch, but with Les Amis Group and three Toyosu deliveries a week behind it

The Les Amis Group's sushi counter, now at Shaw Centre on Scotts Road, and the strongest sourcing story at this price: its own menu states high quality ingredients flown in three times a week from Tokyo's Toyosu market. Lunch is two menus, Kawa at $68 (appetiser, chawanmushi, 6pc sushi, makimono, soup, dessert) and Umi at $98, which swaps in a carpaccio, takes the sushi to 8pc and adds a tamago and a don. Dinner steps up hard: Hana at $168 (two appetisers, carpaccio, sashimi, a hot dish, 4pc sushi, awabi, another 4pc sushi, hand roll, tamago, soup, dessert) and Tsuki at $228, which trades the hot dish for shabu shabu and adds a third appetiser and more sushi. Above both sits the Chef's Menu, Yuki, at $288 and above, with aburi ootoro and awabi. So the counter that costs $68 at noon costs $168 at 7pm for the cheapest menu on the board, the steepest ratio on this page. Open daily, lunch 11.30am to 3pm (last order 2pm) and dinner 6pm to 10pm (last order 9pm), at 1 Scotts Road, Shaw Centre #03-07. Best for: the best-supplied $68 lunch in town, and anyone who wants a group name they recognise behind the counter.

Fat Cow: $88 at lunch, $98 at dinner, the smallest lunch-to-dinner gap of any counter here

Fat Cow is better known as a wagyu steakhouse, but its Shiki Omakase is the reason to put it on an omakase list: $88 per person at lunch (12pm and 1.30pm seatings), $98 at dinner (6pm and 8pm), and an Enhanced version at $118 with premium seasonal highlights. That $10 lunch-to-dinner gap is the whole point. Everywhere else on this page the evening costs 50% to 125% more; here it costs 11% more, so if weekday lunch is impossible for you, this is the counter that does not punish you for it. The current Summer Edition menu has been running since 22 June 2026 and moves through the season's fish, from suzuki to kanpachi, and a curated four-glass sake pairing is published at $62. If you came for the beef instead, the Wagyu Omakase runs $178 and $238 (the refreshed $238 menu features Akune Gold Wagyu from Kagoshima) and there is a Wagyu Sushi Omakase at $148, Monday to Thursday, 12pm lunch only. Prior reservations are required for all of them. Open Sunday to Thursday 12pm to 3pm and 6pm to 10.30pm, Friday and Saturday to 11pm, last order 9.45pm daily, at 1 Orchard Boulevard, Camden Medical Centre #01-01/02, a short walk from Orchard Boulevard station on the Thomson-East Coast Line. Best for: an evening omakase that does not cost evening money.

DOMO: the only live 1-for-1 omakase we could verify, five courses at $220 for two

A modern Japanese robatayaki and omakase room at Fairmont Singapore, led by Chef Rose Ang, formerly executive chef at Nobu Hospitality across Europe. DOMO is the only restaurant on this page publishing an actual discount on its omakase: a 1-for-1 Kiwami Omakase, described on its own promotions page as a five-course chef-curated menu at $220, which puts it at about $110 a head before service charge and GST, or roughly $131.89 nett each. Two more offers sit alongside it. The weekend 1-for-1 runs every Saturday and Sunday on selected lunch sets (Miso Chicken and Chirashi Taco $59, Wagyu Beef Hamburg and Sashimi $69, Premium Sashimi Moriawase $88, all served with DOMO salad, prawn chawanmushi, rice, miso soup and fruit) and on selected a la carte dishes at both lunch and dinner, including Sashimi Deluxe $58, Toro Tataki $48 and a whole Boston lobster at $130. And the Early Bird Happy Hour is a four-course dinner set at $49, Monday to Friday 6pm to 8pm and weekends from 5.30pm, with optional upgrades to crispy halibut (+$14) or grilled beef tenderloin (+$25). None of the three carries a published end date, and the 1-for-1 terms are not spelled out beyond the headline, so confirm the exact cover count when you book. Not valid on public holiday eves, public holidays or special occasions. Lunch 11.30am to 3pm daily; dinner 6pm to 10pm on weekdays, from 5.30pm at weekends, at 252 North Bridge Road #03-00. Best for: the cheapest way to put two people through an omakase this month.

Ki-sho: kappo rather than sushi, and a weekday lunch at $168 against $280 at dinner

A black-and-white bungalow at 29 Scotts Road serving kappo, which its own menu translates literally as to cut and cook: a multi-course progression with the elegance of kaiseki but cooked in front of you at the counter, so you are not eating twenty pieces of nigiri in a row. The restaurant serves one exclusively curated Chef Kappo Omakase, and the pricing is unusually simple. Lunch is Sou at $168 or Yui at $280. Dinner is Yui at $280 or Shin at $360. All menus change seasonally. Sou at $168 is the interesting number: it is the cheapest way to eat a proper kappo counter meal in Singapore, and it comes in $112 below the cheapest evening seat in the same room. The catch is availability, because lunch runs Monday to Friday only, 12pm to 3pm, and is closed on Saturdays and public holidays; dinner is Monday to Saturday, 6.30pm to 11pm, and the restaurant is closed on Sundays. Parking is on site, dress code smart casual, and sandals, flip-flops and singlets are discouraged. Best for: someone who has done a few sushi omakase and wants the cooked, seasonal version instead.

IYASAKA by Hashida: Chef Hashida's counter at Raffles Sentosa, $200 at lunch and from $450 at dinner

Chef Kenjiro Hashida moved his Singapore restaurant to Raffles Sentosa and renamed it IYASAKA, after the cheer heard at Japanese festive gatherings, and the whole room is chef's counter seats only. Lunch is where it is approachable: Tachibana at $200 runs starter, chawanmushi, sashimi, sushi, soup and dessert, and Yamato is $320; a bespoke Omakase is available by enquiry with the team rather than at a listed price. Dinner is a single Omakase from $450. Menu prices may vary during the festive period, and the restaurant asks that all guests in one reservation take the same menu. The booking terms are firmer than anywhere else here: a credit card hold is required, and a no-show or a cancellation inside 72 hours is charged at $200+ for lunch and $300+ for dinner. Seafood and soy run through the menus, so flag dietary restrictions when you book. Open Tuesdays 6.30pm to 10pm, Wednesday to Saturday 11.30am to 2.30pm and 6.30pm to 10pm, closed Sundays and Mondays, at 4 Bukit Manis Road, Raffles Sentosa. Dress code smart casual. Best for: a proper occasion, where the room and the island are part of what you are paying for.

Shoukouwa: two Michelin stars at One Fullerton, and a $380 lunch that is $300 below its own dinner

The most decorated counter on this list, in a small room on the second floor of One Fullerton looking out over Marina Bay, and the only one here whose menus arrive as four named sets rather than a ladder of tiers. Lunch is Miyabi at S$380, described on its own menu as the graceful and refined option for a more genteel appetite, and Hana at S$520, the robust menu built for Japanese food aficionados. Dinner repeats Hana at S$520 and adds EN at S$680, which inserts a chef's special course before the cooked dishes. Every set runs appetisers, cooked dishes, nigiri sushi, miso soup and dessert. All prices are subject to 10% service charge and prevailing government taxes, so Miyabi settles at $455.62 and EN at $815.32. The saving to note is internal: taking lunch instead of dinner at the same restaurant is $300 a head at the top, and $140 a head if you compare the two cheapest seats. There is a separate sake list that runs from $130 for a Hakurakusei Tokubetsu Junmai to four figures for Juyondai, so the drinks decision can double the bill on its own. 1 Fullerton Road, #02-02A One Fullerton. Best for: the two-star meal, taken at noon, which is the only way it is nearly sensible.

What the lunch-to-dinner gap actually costs you

Every restaurant on this list sells the same thing twice. The chef is the same, the counter is the same, and the fish came off the same delivery. What changes between noon and evening is the number of courses, the grade of a handful of ingredients, and the price, and the price changes by far more than the other two.

Read down the comparison table and the pattern is hard to miss. Sushi Jin charges $68++ for Kawa at lunch and $168++ for Hana at dinner, so the evening costs 2.5 times the afternoon at the same address. Sushi Yujo opens at $68++ and its cheapest dinner menu is $148++. Ki-sho's weekday lunch Sou is $168++ against $280++ for the cheapest evening menu. IYASAKA by Hashida charges $200++ for Tachibana at lunch and starts at $450++ at dinner. Shoukouwa runs $380++ at lunch and $680++ for EN in the evening.

The one counter that barely moves is Fat Cow, where the Shiki Omakase is $88++ at lunch and $98++ at dinner. A $10 gap is unusual enough to be the reason to pick it if your evening is the only slot you have.

Every price here is quoted ++, and that is not a rounding error

Not one restaurant on this page publishes a nett price. Everything is "subject to service charge and prevailing government taxes", which in Singapore means 10% service charge first, then 9% GST on the new total. That multiplies the menu price by 1.199, so:

  • $68++ becomes $81.53
  • $88++ becomes $105.51
  • $98++ becomes $117.50
  • $168++ becomes $201.43
  • $200++ becomes $239.80
  • $380++ becomes $455.62
  • $680++ becomes $815.32

On a two-person dinner at Shoukouwa that surcharge alone is $270.64, which is more than an entire lunch for two at Sushi Jin.

About the promotions on this page

We looked for dated discounts across all seven restaurants and found exactly one that is published as a discount: DOMO's 1-for-1 Kiwami Omakase, a five-course chef-curated menu listed at $220, alongside a weekend 1-for-1 on selected lunch sets ($59 Miso Chicken and Chirashi Taco, $69 Wagyu Beef Hamburg and Sashimi, $88 Premium Sashimi Moriawase) and a $49 four-course Early Bird dinner set. None of those carries an end date on DOMO's own promotions page, so treat them as running until the page changes, and confirm at booking.

Everything else on this list is standing pricing rather than a promotion. That is normal for omakase: these counters seat between 8 and 16 people a sitting, so they discount by opening a cheaper lunch menu rather than by cutting the price of the evening one. The lunch menu is the discount.

How to choose

  • You want the cheapest real omakase experience. Sushi Yujo's Ai at $68++, or Sushi Jin's Kawa at the same price. Sushi Jin is the safer bet on fish sourcing (Toyosu three times a week, Les Amis Group behind it); Sushi Yujo gives you more rungs to climb, with five lunch tiers up to $198.
  • You want a sushi counter and the evening is your only slot. Fat Cow at $98++, because the lunch-dinner gap is only $10. Its Wagyu Sushi Omakase at $148++ is Monday to Thursday lunch only.
  • You want something other than nigiri after nigiri. Ki-sho is kappo rather than sushi, so the menu is a cooked multi-course progression, and DOMO is robatayaki-led. Both read very differently from a traditional Edomae counter.
  • It is an occasion and the budget is open. IYASAKA by Hashida at Raffles Sentosa for the room and Chef Kenjiro Hashida's cooking, or Shoukouwa at One Fullerton for the two Michelin stars.

Book early, and read the cancellation terms

Counters this small hold your credit card details, and at least one of them says exactly what it will charge. IYASAKA by Hashida takes a card hold and charges $200+ for lunch or $300+ for dinner on a no-show or a cancellation inside 72 hours, and seats only at the chef's counter. Ki-sho closes on Sundays and does not serve lunch on Saturdays or public holidays. Wakuda at Marina Bay Sands, which we could not card here because it publishes no logo of its own, runs its Sushi Experience in a separate omakase room from $128++ per person, 13 to 17 courses, Thursday to Sunday only with a 8.30pm last seating, if you want one more option in that price band.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does omakase cost in Singapore in 2026?

The published floor for a full omakase is $68++ at lunch, and two counters charge exactly that: Sushi Yujo's Ai menu at Amara Hotel and Sushi Jin's Kawa at Shaw Centre. Every price in this category is quoted ++, meaning before 10% service charge and 9% GST, so $68++ is $81.53 on the card. From there lunch prices run $88++ at Fat Cow, $168++ at Ki-sho, $200++ at IYASAKA by Hashida and $380++ at two-Michelin-starred Shoukouwa. Dinner is a different market: the cheapest evening menus are $98++ at Fat Cow, $148++ at Sushi Yujo, $168++ at Sushi Jin, $280++ at Ki-sho, from $450++ at IYASAKA and $520++ at Shoukouwa, topping out at $680++ for Shoukouwa's EN set. DOMO at Fairmont Singapore is the outlier because it is running a 1-for-1 Kiwami Omakase at $220 for two, about $131.89 a head nett. All figures were read off each restaurant's own site or menu PDF in September 2026.

Is lunch omakase actually cheaper than dinner, or just smaller?

It is both, and the discount is larger than the reduction in food. Sushi Jin's Kawa lunch at $68 runs appetiser, chawanmushi, 6pc sushi, makimono, soup and dessert; its cheapest dinner, Hana at $168, adds a second appetiser, carpaccio, sashimi, a hot dish, abalone, a hand roll and another 4pc of sushi. That is meaningfully more food, but not 2.5 times more food, which is what the price says. Sushi Yujo goes $68 to $148, Ki-sho $168 to $280, IYASAKA $200 to from $450, and Shoukouwa $380 to $520. The single exception is Fat Cow, where the same Shiki Omakase costs $88 at lunch and $98 at dinner, an 11% step. If your goal is to eat at a particular counter for the least money, book lunch. If your goal is the fullest version of the chef's menu, that only exists in the evening at most of these restaurants.

What does ++ mean, and what will I actually pay?

Every restaurant on this page quotes prices as ++ or as subject to service charge and prevailing government taxes. In Singapore that means 10% service charge is added first, then 9% GST is charged on the new subtotal, so the menu price is multiplied by 1.199. A $68++ lunch is $81.53. A $98++ dinner is $117.50. A $168++ menu is $201.43, a $200++ menu is $239.80, a $380++ menu is $455.62 and a $680++ menu is $815.32. On a dinner for two at Shoukouwa's EN menu, the service charge and GST alone come to $270.64. Drinks are charged the same way and are not included in any omakase price here, so a sake pairing such as Fat Cow's published $62++ for four glasses adds $74.34.

Which omakase in Singapore has a promotion right now?

One, and it is at DOMO in Fairmont Singapore. Its promotions page is currently publishing a 1-for-1 Kiwami Omakase, a five-course chef-curated menu at $220, plus a weekend 1-for-1 on selected lunch sets ($59, $69 and $88) and selected a la carte dishes, and an Early Bird Happy Hour four-course dinner set at $49, Monday to Friday 6pm to 8pm and weekends from 5.30pm. None of those carries a published end date, and the offers exclude public holiday eves, public holidays and special occasions. Everywhere else on this list, the cheaper lunch menu is the discount: these counters seat roughly 8 to 16 people a sitting and do not cut their evening prices. If you see a discounted omakase advertised on a deal aggregator, check it against the restaurant's own site before you book, because several of the counters here changed name, address or menu structure during 2026.

Do I need to book ahead, and what happens if I cancel?

Yes, and at some counters the cancellation terms are published in full. IYASAKA by Hashida at Raffles Sentosa takes a credit card hold to secure the reservation and charges $200+ for lunch or $300+ for dinner on a no-show or a cancellation within 72 hours; the restaurant is counter seating only and asks that everyone in the same booking takes the same menu. Fat Cow states that prior reservations are required for all three of its omakase menus, and its Wagyu Sushi Omakase at $148 runs on Monday to Thursday lunch only. Ki-sho is closed on Sundays and serves no lunch on Saturdays or public holidays. Sushi Yujo takes bookings by phone or through Chope. If you have a seafood or soy allergy, say so at the point of booking rather than on arrival, because these menus are fixed and the kitchen buys for the exact number of covers.
