O Ya, Boston

O Ya is a modern Japanese-inspired restaurant. Chef Tim and Nancy Cushman, owners of o ya, have been blown away by the hospitality of Japan, as well as the freshness, quality, and diversity of Japanese food and sake.

Tim Cushman, the chef-owner, is offering a $250 weekly omakase menu that includes nigiri, sashimi, and cooked dishes. In addition to the large premium sake and wine range, beverage pairings are provided. Every little luxury provided by chef Tim Cushman was as exquisite as it was exotic, from needlefish sashimi served with the deep-fried head and backbone to tomalley aioli-topped lobster-caviar nigiri. Omakase at O Ya costs roughly $285 for 17-20 dishes, but when you taste striped horse mackerel in leche de tigre or the famous foie gras with chocolate-balsamic kabayaki and raisin-cocoa pulp, the bill will fade in comparison to the wonderful memories being made.
