Ichikawa runs one of Milan's few dedicated omakase counters, seating only eight guests per evening at the bar where chef Haruo Ichikawa prepares a six-course tasting menu plus dessert. The approach is Edomae sushi built around seasonal ingredients, with dishes such as otoro (tuna belly) and Japanese wagyu appearing on the counter menu.
Haruo Ichikawa holds a Michelin star, awarded in 2015, and carries the title of Japanese Cuisine Goodwill Ambassador, a certification issued by Japan's ministry overseeing fisheries and agriculture. He leads a team of Japanese chefs at the restaurant, which is also listed in the Michelin guide.
Beyond the counter, the dining room offers an à la carte menu alongside a separate five-course tasting menu plus dessert, covering sashimi selections and cooked dishes like wagyu udon. The restaurant is closed Mondays and Sundays, open for dinner Tuesday through Friday, and for both lunch and dinner on Saturday.
The restaurant sits on Via Lazzaro Papi in Milan and falls into the luxury price tier. Reservations are taken by phone, and given the eight-seat limit on the omakase counter, booking ahead is advisable. The address, phone number, and official website are listed for direct contact.
