Kichi Omakase sits on S 12th Street in Philadelphia's Gayborhood, serving Edomae-style sushi from a counter-only setup. The restaurant falls into the luxury price tier, consistent with its focus on a single, chef-directed tasting format rather than an à la carte menu.

Service runs seven nights a week starting at 5pm. On Fridays and Saturdays the kitchen stays open until 11pm; the rest of the week it closes at 10pm. There's no walk-in ordering system or online booking page listed — reservations are taken by phone at (215) 359-6099, which is the only confirmed way to secure a seat.

The restaurant maintains a presence on Instagram rather than a traditional website, where updates on availability or menu changes are most likely to appear. No chef name, exact seat count, or set pricing has been published, so those details are worth confirming directly when calling to book.

Given the counter-only format typical of Edomae sushi spots, seating is expected to be limited, and advance reservations are advisable, particularly for weekend dinner service when hours extend later into the night.
