In August, 2022, I broke the news that Silvers Omakase would be coming to 224 Helena Avenue in the Funk Zone, the former home of Seven Bar & Kitchen. Reader Steve C. says that the sushi restaurant, helmed by chef Lennon Silvers Lee, has opened. Silvers Omakase is Chef Lennon Silvers Lee’s long-awaited signature restaurant, offering a Japanese tasting menu. “Not only is Silvers Omakase a place where he can work with like-minded partners who share a common drive for excellency, but a space to showcase the work of master craftsmen, farmers, fishmongers, potters, glassblowers, sake brewers, wine makers and countless others,” says their website silversomakase.com. “Just as we have a duty to serve our guests, we also believe we have the responsibility to showcase the work of those who devote their lives to making a restaurant like Silvers Omakase possible.” Reservations are required and the cost of dining is $185 per guest. A $25 deposit per guest which will be taken and applied to your bill after dining. They do not accommodate gluten-free, vegetarian, or vegan options at this time. The eatery is open Tuesday – Saturday.
