IYO Omakase occupies a single counter for seven guests in Piazza Alvar Aalto, within Milan's Portanuova district. The restaurant offers one fixed menu built around Edomae-style sushi, the older and stricter of Japan's sushi traditions, prepared at the counter in front of diners.
The space shares its entrance with the adjoining IYO Kaiseki restaurant but operates as its own intimate room, seating only seven at a time. There is no table seating; every guest sits at the counter, which is the point of the format — watching the sushi master work through each course.
Dinner service runs Wednesday through Sunday from 19:00 to 23:30. Lunch is offered on Saturdays and Sundays only, from 13:00 to 14:30. The restaurant is closed Mondays and Tuesdays, and there is no lunch service on weekdays.
IYO Omakase sits at the Luxury end of the price scale, consistent with its small-format, single-menu model. Specific pricing isn't listed here; confirm current menu cost directly with the restaurant when booking. Reservations can be made by phone at 02 2506 2828 or through the restaurant's website, iyo-omakase.com. Given the seven-seat capacity, booking ahead is advisable, particularly for weekend lunch or dinner slots.
