About this place
At o・mo・ya, lunch is a chance to choose the kind of course you fancy: something light and vegetable-led, or a menu with wagyu at its heart. The listed “Light Lunch Course with a Focus on Vegetables” costs 3,500 yen. It starts with a small welcome dish and an assortment of vegetables, followed by conger eel braised in red wine, the soup of the day, pan-fried fish and roasted Chami pork fillet, then dessert and coffee. The seasonal lunch recommendation follows the same format for 4,500 yen, with the option to replace the pork fillet with a dish featuring selected wagyu. It is a good fit for diners who want to enjoy vegetables while still having a meat dish as their main course.
Diners who have tried the lunch course have singled out the vegetable assortment and cauliflower potage. Another visitor ordered duck and foie gras pâté with the wagyu course, and enjoyed comparing the flavours with salt and fig jam. Other comments praise the presentation of the fish course and dessert, making this a lunch to savour at an unhurried pace. A lunch course featuring wagyu and comprising 8 dishes is also listed.
Dinner options range from a seasonal course with an assortment of vegetables, appetisers, soup and fish, followed by meat, dessert and coffee, to a course with wagyu as the main event. As at lunch, diners can choose what they would like at the centre of the meal. The listed wine selection includes 3 sparkling wines, along with 6 whites and 6 reds. There is room to find a pairing for the food, and the non-alcoholic options include red and white grape juices made from grapes used for winemaking.
Some diners have enjoyed the machiya atmosphere and a quiet meal; one visitor also mentioned looking out over the courtyard from a semi-private room. Private rooms are available, and reservations are recommended for both lunch and dinner. If you have a particular course or dining time in mind, it may be worth booking ahead.
