"Not worth the hype and the price, at all. Not a real Omakase experience, you are brought out your dishes independently from the others in the restaurant. No communication with the chef. Plates were a bit boring, a bunch of similar sashimi cuts with different condiments on top. I would definitely recommend No Relations if you are looking for a true Omakase experience in Boston."

O ya restaurant in Boston is a unique place that leaves an unforgettable impression. One of the main reasons is the highest quality of dishes and their impeccable execution. The chef and his team create true culinary masterpieces, combining traditional Japanese techniques with modern trends. The restaurant’s interior is stylish and cozy, creating the perfect atmosphere for dinner. The staff is always attentive and professional, which adds even more enjoyment to the visit. One of o ya’s main advantages is its tasting menu, which allows guests to try a variety of dishes and enjoy rich flavors. Each dish is carefully thought out and prepared using only fresh and high-quality ingredients. Howeve...
This is the third time we've visited O ya. It used to serve very fresh fish with minimal saucing, but now the dishes are heavily sauced—some are too salty or the flavors overpower the taste of the fish. I am disappointed to notice the decline in flavor quality; it would be much better with less sauce and more authentic fish flavor. There were also repeated fish dishes, which were not enjoyable to eat (ex. salmon came up 3 times). Wagyu was too oily, again with heavy saucing. The dessert wine was unnecessary; I don't think it contributed to the meal's wholesomeness. Something with a citrus or refreshing tea flavor would probably work better. I wouldn't want to come back based on the lack of f...
The food was amazing. Some of the best I've ever had. The service wasn't. The waitress put her bare hand on the top of an open bottle of champagne. Yuk. She also continued to completely fill glasses with wine without asking. Maybe I don't want more... I also found the wine advice was terrible. We asked for a dry sparkling wine. What they brought was somewhere between a sec and demi-sec and certainly wasn't a brut. It is also very loud. There doesn't seem to be any acoustic panelling or noise reduction of any kind. Even the waiters were yelling as they announced the dishes they brought. My advice: bring noise reducing headphones and set up a conference call with the people you're eating with....
Our experience was outstanding! Beautiful interior, with the choice to sit at the sushi bar or at a table (we took the sushi bar to be near the action). Each dish ranged from excellent to exquisite. The ability to customize the menu per dietary restrictions/preferences was something that we have not seen before, by nature of omekase being a chef curated dinner , but it really added to our enjoyment so we could be sure each course would be something we love. Also Hillary provided fantastic service Friendly, fun, and very knowledgeable on the food and the beverage pairings.
