Makoto-san's Omakase Pop-up@The Steak Library Lomita

Omakase Comeback. Makoto-san finally owns the chef's counter again for the first time since his & our last one at Wadatsumi Beverly Hills on February 25, 2023. We loved the price point and fresh quality seafood at Wadatsumi. We were the first ones trying his Omakase as his returning customers from Wadatsumi. Happy to revisit the taste of Wadatsumi again. We missed the Paper Shabu Shabu. Makoto-san always treats us like VIP. He has nice attention to detail, and even greeted meet w/ Demon Slayer background piano music. We had the whole restaurant to ourselves. It was a lot of food for lunch, so we ended up taking some of them home. It'd be nice to have dinner option too. Pop-up Omakase $250 per person. By appointment in advance and for lunch only.
