Plan your omakase at Kasen
Chef-led sushi omakase at Kasen’s ten-seat counter. Kim Chu serves sashimi, warm-shari sushi and original cooked washoku in a calm room with personal hospitality. Guests entrust the fifteen-course meal to the chef; there is no fixed menu.
Getting a table
Reserve before your trip.
Choose your dining date and arrival time in Ho Chi Minh City local time (UTC+7). Request online, by WhatsApp or email; Kasen must confirm availability.
Your hotel concierge, assistant or group organiser can use the form’s “Booking on behalf of someone else?” section. Add the guest’s name and phone number.
The meal
The meal at Kasen.
Fish preparation, warm shari, sauces and service come together across the meal. Guests return over the years for the chef-led counter, cooking and welcome.
Kim Chu’s approach draws on Hiko Sushi in Los Angeles. Explore aged halibut, truffles and Kasen’s sawara preparation, otoro with Beluga sturgeon eggs and sea urchin, and A5 Miyazaki beef with Kasen’s own sauce.
Every sake and wine has a personal connection to the chef. See the sake and wine list. The meal takes about 1–1.5 hours; explore the omakase experience and reserve directly with Kasen.
Kasen accepts cash, cards and bank transfer, and has on-site parking for cars and motorbikes.
For a birthday, anniversary or graduation or life milestone during your trip, tell the team the occasion and party size. Special arrangements require confirmation.
