Sabi Omakase Oslo

We visited this very nice restaurant months ago for a special business event. So, with the company paying for the dinner, it wasn't too expensive. The food was around EUR 310 and the wine/sake pairings were EUR 150-250 per person. The venue, the décor, the service, the food and the drinks were almost perfect. The tasting menu - seafood, fish and meat - is very fresh, prepared in a style that is natural in taste and high in nutritional value. The food is prepared in front of the guests. About 10 people attend the dinner, which lasts several hours. The door is locked after entry, so as not to disturb casual passers-by. P.S. There is only one thing we strongly dislike about this restaurant, and about the whole of Norway! That is when people kill and eat the beautiful and globally protected marine mammal Whales. Personally, I will never taste even a small piece of Whale or Dolphin for ethical ecological reasons. Recommended to visit. Robertas V.P. CEO, BANQUEINVEST*com

This experience was nothing short of incredible from start to finish. I dined solo and was a bit anxious about how it might go being such a small room and intimate atmosphere. From the start they welcomed me and what I appreciated most was that they sat me right in the middle so I would not feel left out. It was quite the opposite as by the end of the night i had had a 3 hour conversation with all guests but especially the couple to my right- we even found we knew mutual people! The chef Airis Zapa, with Lithuanian roots, created a warm and inviting atmosphere but also showed great skill and seriousness in his passion for sushi. The food itself was absolutely incredible. The fish to meat to sweet progression was the best I have ever had- not a single detail was missed. The chef explained each ingredient’s origin and allowed space for questions and comments throughout the evening. I would definitely say this meal was one of the best of my life, and certainly the best omakase I have had. I would 1000% recommend to anyone, and may find myself booking a flight back to Oslo just to enjoy this again.

The best omakase experience I’ve had in recent years. If I lived in Oslo, I would frequent this place once a month. Everything, from the welcoming reception, drink pairing recommendations from Maizo, best quality seafood, to the interesting conversations with chef Airis. Experience is intimate, fun och frikking delicious. I loved this place so much I booked it asap for my birthday. I only selected a few photos because I didn’t wanna ruin the surprise for anyone. Thank you team and see you in January!

What an amazing experience and so far the best sushi I’ve ever tasted! All the different types of fish and cuts you’ll taste during the menu is unbelievable. I really enjoyed the evening at Omakase and to experience Vladimir’s passion for the work and how skilled he is. It’s clearly to see it’s a former world champion in sushi. I specially liked the fat belly tuna and the reindeer. This is a must try experience in Oslo if you love sushi.

Amazing restaurant from start to finish. One of the best meals ive had in all of Europe. The selection of wines for this tasting menu was amazing, the food as fresh as can be and prepared by two amazing chef's right before your eyes. Remarkable how much the quality and freshness can effect the final product in taste. Every bite was a treat, nothing wasted and all in a modern, clean and beautiful atmosphere with extremely attentive and thoughtful service. A must if you are in the area!!

Likeable, straightforward, approachable, attentive. We were allowed to follow Airis Zapa's craft yesterday. His hands prepare the small works of art very elegantly. Watching the chef is already a pleasure. We particularly liked the fact that he asked each guest for their personal opinion after the menu. Thank you to the whole team! In the service an equally elegant and friendly lady. Each course was an increase. The wines were very well matched to the food. Our senses, especially the taste buds, were overwhelmed. The use of salts and spices and smoke were perfectly coordinated at all times. The texture of rice, fish and meat is terrific. The refreshing sorbet was like a small avalanche that rolled over the tongue. We would have liked to keep the eel and the lamb in our mouths forever. You didn't want to swallow it because it tasted so great. The Wagyu with White Truffle was a sensory explosion and the highlight of the evening. Indescribable what food can trigger. It got me into ecstasy. I would have liked to freeze this moment. We will never forget this experience. We have great respect for the discipline and passion that this work of art must demand. Thank you for your efforts and that we were allowed to be part of dining in such an exclusive setting. It was worth every euro. Thanks! We apologize again for our delay. We didn't mean to be rude. We had orientation problems. What we were not aware of, however, was that the meal for all participants started at the same time. We recommend that you explicitly inform your guests of this when booking.

Amazing sushi prepared by world champion Vladimir Pak. He is a true artist bringing everything to perfection. Quality ingredients, freshness, great combinations, everything prepared in front of you. Good selection of wine as well

Incredibly sushi experience. Loved that everything was explained about every ingredients and wine. Loved it.
