Kakurega Omakase - Kakurega Omakase

Great food, great atmosphere and great chef (and staff)! If you like authentic locally sourced Japanese food with a little Mexican twist - visiting here is a must when in the puerto escondido area. We had an amazing experience!

Went there on a day trip with the bike just to explore the area. All very private and not much you can see or do without staying in one of the places. Decided to at least sit down in the restaurant for a drink..it was just the 2 of us in there. We ordered these non alcoholic fancy juices/mocktails that on the menu were $120 each. Didn't taste amazing or anything and when we got the bill, it was $400 total. The explanation we got from the guy serving us was a bit unclear. He was talking something about the paper menu not being updated and the new price in the system being $200 and that they ran out of paper for the menu and the receipt machine? I mean, they could have told us before. When I tried to pay with card he repeated that it's the same paper issue.. I would not buy a small juice if I knew it was 10USD. Wish I would have stood up and left without paying..ridiculous

We had a fantastic night here! We were so welcomed from the moment we walked in the door and it was a truly unique experience. Chef keisuke is a master and takes you on a journey of culinary delight with every dish somehow topping the next. It is worth every cent for such a unique and heart felt experience. Cannot recommend this place enough. Make sure you prepay and make a reservation in advance with Escondido hotel. Enjoy!

Very enjoyable meal in amazing setting. Real deal sushi master from Kyoto using local ingredients. A nice community atmosphere and you have the opportunity to chat with other guests when the alcohol starts flowing if you so choose. Would not a miss a meal here if you are in the area.

Such an epic experience… highly recommended. This was my choice to celebrate my 40th Birthday and I have no regrets!!!

Sensational food. Unique experience. Worth trying to get a table if you can (feel bad for folks who had a bad experience). The chef was very chatty and warm.

We love adventuring in food! The restaurant itself is unique and a lovely elevated open air concept with large beams, traditional japanese stone footings and thatched roof. Its really cool if you're into architecture. Eight of us had a delicious dining experience. Each bite was like tiny explosions of flavors in your mouth. They source as much in season local ingredients as possible. Chef creates the unique 8 course menu. Each dish arrives at the same time for each quest on beatiful raku dishes hand made in Oaxaca. The drive through farm land, along the large lagoon was a nice sight. We drove down a fairly long flat dirt road, a gated community of exclusive hotels and homes nestled into a natural terrain along the beach. Staff were friendly and greeted us kindly and on top of their game. Sushi Master was friendly and spoke with us quite a bit. We asked alot of questions about everything. Open air means YOU must be prepared for the elements, including an occasional bug. The reservation was a small challenge but we were persistent and managed. It was worth every penny and every bite. If you're looking for a typical sushi restaurant then this isn't your place. Viva!

I visited Kakurega Omakase last October. Didn’t know I could write a review being this magical spot in such a remote place. But here I go. This is one of those really special culinary experiences worth sharing. If visiting Puerto Escondido, this place is a MUST! Enjoying the sunset while watching the owner and staff create incredibly delicate and exquisite dishes is quite spectacular. The setting is poetry itself. The simple yet sophisticated atmosphere will captivate you from the moment you start climbing the stairs to the main area. You will agree this place exceeds any expectations. Thank you Yellow Monkey, will definitely visit again when in Oaxaca! ??
