    We went for the 14-course omakase and everything was wonderful. Impeccable service, very attentive staff and a special atmosphere. The experience is well worth it!

    I’ve had Omakase in many parts of the world. This was an extraordinary experience on par with some of the best authentic Japanese. Diego is truly an artist not just a chef. Incredible and extraordinary flavors.

    An overall amazing experience. I’ve had the good fortune to enjoy many fine restaurants in my 57 years and Kuu was the breakout best. Everthing, quality of meal, presentation, ambiance, atmosphere, was perfect. Just magical. JMR
