Sushi Oribe is an authentic Edomae omakase restaurant in Kuala Lumpur, just five minutes' walk from Pavilion KL. Since 2014, Master Chef Naoya Kawasaki has hand-crafted each course at the counter, blending strict Edomae tradition with seasonal sensibility. If you're looking for a refined omakase experience in KL — celebrating a special occasion, hosting a business dinner, or simply discovering authentic Japanese craft — Sushi Oribe offers intimate counter seating for twelve, with two private rooms available.
Rather than ordering from a menu, you place your meal in the chef's hands — and the chef selects and prepares each course based on the freshest seasonal ingredients of the day.
At Sushi Oribe, Chef Naoya Kawasaki personally crafts your omakase at the counter, explaining each piece as it is served. It is sushi as a conversation: unhurried, seasonal, and deeply personal.
Our omakase unfolds at a twelve-seat counter, where every guest has a direct view of Chef Nao at work.

Authentic Edomae sushi begins with the fish. At Sushi Oribe, premium seasonal neta is sourced with care — including air-flown selections from Japan's renowned Toyosu Market — so each piece reflects the very best of the season.
From silver-skinned hikarimono like kohada to lean akami and rich, marbled cuts, Chef Nao applies traditional Edomae techniques — curing, marinating, and ageing — to draw out the natural character of every ingredient.
Paired with red-vinegar shari and hand-brushed nikiri, this is sushi crafted the way it was meant to be: seasonal, precise, and deeply considered
