"The sister restaurant to D.C.’s two-Michelin-starred tasting counter Jônt is clearly aiming for best restaurant designation. Each of chef Ryan Ratino’s 20-plus courses in Ômo’s $375, top-tiered “The Jaunt” menu, astound with creativity, technique and ingredients, be it foie-pineapple brioche donuts served in the “Living Room,” or wild Hokkaido uni in a corn chawanmushi with soy milk kombu served in the “Savory Counter,” or black sesame kakigori with mango yuzu in the “Pastry Parlor.” Those not into a three-hour excursion into French-Japanese cusine can opt for the $195 “The Journey” tasting menu, presenting 10 equally impressive bites. Wine pairings can add anywhere from $140 to $595 to the already extravagant affair." - Faiyaz Kara
