I’m a big sushi fan and love to try out Japanese cuisine around the world. This is the best omakase sushi you can get in Boston. The restaurant is tiny so make sure you reserve a seat at least a few weeks in advance. I would love to give a 5 star but unfortunately there are some down points. It was a 5 out of 5 the first time we visit, but the score has going down after. First of all, they don’t really change the menu, so you end up having a fixed setting each time. Which takes out the whole surprise of the Omakase experience. Secondly, the quality of the sushi rice varies. Sometimes it was amazing and sometimes was pretty bad rice felt apart when picking the sushi up. Besides that, this restaurant is really really good and I highly recommend to everyone who loves sushi. The fish was always with great quality and the chief was super friendly and skillful. My personal favorite is the sommeliers. They are extremely knowledgeable with sake!
HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE OMG It was my first Omakase in my life and it was fantastic. The chefs were very friendly telling us the ingredients and their seasonal menu. I loved how they interact with customers and prepare each piece. I could feel how people in this area love food.
I had my first omakase experience at No Relation. The entire experience is very intimate and an enjoyable journey. The chefs naturally deliver a symphony of flavors in single bites which I can highly recommend. Alexi, who takes care of drinks, is an absolute pleasure and an expert on what is served. Overall I highly recommend this high quality experience to anyone it speaks to!
Definitely love it! The food and services match the price, and 14 courses can totally fill me up. I always thought I hate Akami, but the one I tried here really change my mind.Dine in: Yes
Phenomenal. The courses were diverse and the treatment of each piece let the fish shine while still incorporating a mix of traditional and more unusual flavors. The langoustine an a la carte option was a surprise and a true delight. I appreciated the attention to smaller details, such as when the chef noticed I ate left-handed and presented the sushi accordingly. No Relation stands out not just in Boston, but against the multitude of omakase options in nearby NYC as well. NYC prices seem to be going sky-high while quality declines and a majority of restaurants coalesce around identical menus. In comparison, No Relation was an exceptional meal that was very reasonably priced. A must-visit if you're in the area!
As soon as we sat down, my partner and I looked at each other and commented on how awkwardly low the seats are. So low that you have to make extra effort when reaching for the sushi. Staff were very friendly. Nice ambience, nice background music. However The sushi was just okay. Not worth the price tag.
This is our 1st time dine at this restaurant, we were worried we might not be full but we were. We enjoyed most of sushi except mackerel I always find it has strong fishy taste. The white sturgeon would better without caviar. It over power the rest of dish. Overall it was pleasant experience.
Incredible sushi experience and service by the chefs and staff. The fish selections were wonderful and well put together, each piece bringing something new and different to the table. The sake selections for the pairing are also a great addition to the meal. Great place to go for a special event! Or if you just love great omakase sushi.
A cool spot for Boston standards as a small Japanese inspired room at the back of a tiki bar. Excellent quality fish and rice, and a very knowledgeable somm. The music was a bit quiet and because of that it was a very intimate experience, only things missing were a wow factor in the food and experience, this was a traditional sushi dinner with high quality ingredients. The only unique dish was a Boston inspired miso soup to complete the meal, but it left you wanting more.
Great experience and fantastic sushi at the No relation Omakase. The chefs were very friendly explaining the ingredients and their seasonal menu with us. I loved how you could add on to the experience at the end with special rolls and A5 wagyu.
