Kawa Omakase occupies a quiet corner of Preston Hollow at 5940 Royal Ln in Dallas. The name, Japanese for "river," points to the pacing of the meal: a steady, seasonal procession of courses that moves from one dish to the next without pause, built around edomae sushi technique.
Owner-chef Bit "Sunny" Ko oversees both the omakase and a companion hand roll program. Signature dishes include Hokkaido uni over warm sushi rice, bluefin toro with freshly grated wasabi, and A5 wagyu torched and finished with yuzu kosho. The hand rolls lean toward simpler pairings, such as snow crab with shiso or scallop with lemon zest, wrapped in crisp nori.
Service runs most days with both a midday and evening sitting: 11:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. and 5:00 to 10:00 p.m. Monday through Saturday, with Sunday limited to dinner from 5:00 to 9:00 p.m. The restaurant sits in the Upscale price tier and takes reservations through OpenTable. Groups larger than six are asked to call the restaurant directly rather than book online.
The room is designed to keep attention on the counter work rather than on décor, with a sake display referenced as part of the layout. Diners looking for a focused, chef-led sushi meal with both lunch and dinner options in North Dallas will find the format straightforward: reserve online, choose a sitting, and let the chef set the pace.
