First Omakase Dinner in Ubud: Choosing Your Seat at Kumo

At Kumo Fusion Omakase in Ubud, choose whether to reserve one of four chef-counter seats and which tasting length you prefer. The chef then chooses the courses within that format. Guests who want to choose their main course can ask for a table and the separate steak-house menu.

Omakase means leaving the course choices to the chef. Kumo's counter seats four guests at a time. A counter reservation is therefore a specific request, not a generic dinner booking. The restaurant is inside Riviera Boutique Hotel on Jalan Raya Pengosekan.

Kumo's restaurant page lists 30 seats in the dining room and two evening sittings. Ask which sitting has the counter seats you want when you reserve.

Kumo lists four omakase lengths: First Encounter at four moments, The Journey at eight, The Chef's Selection at eleven, and The Kumo Experience at fifteen. A longer sequence gives the kitchen more room to shape the meal; it does not turn the courses into individual selections from a fixed list.

For a first visit, decide how much of the evening you want to spend at the counter. Confirm the current menu and price when reserving, because the restaurant page is the live source for those details.

Kumo also has a steak-house menu at tables. The menu includes a seasonal appetizer, soup of the day and vegetables, then lets you choose a protein, carbohydrate and sauce. The site lists beef, seafood and lamb options. This format gives you a choice over the main plate while the kitchen sets other parts of the meal.

If you are dining with someone who wants a choice, discuss the counter and table formats before booking. An omakase counter seat and a steak-house table are different reservations.

Give the date, number of guests, preferred sitting, counter or table, and the tasting length if you want omakase. Mention any dietary restrictions when you inquire so the restaurant can tell you what it can accommodate.

The Kumo restaurant page directs reservations through WhatsApp and carries the current menu. Riviera guests can walk to dinner in the same building, and outside visitors can reserve too. If the four-seat counter is the reason for your visit, ask for it explicitly.

Common questions

Is a Kumo omakase counter booking the same as a table booking?

No. The four-seat chef counter is for omakase tasting sequences. At the tables, guests can choose from Kumo's separate steak-house menu. Specify which experience you want when reserving.

  • Do you know that feeling when Christmas is coming and your mum has been in the kitchen all day cooking something special for you? Thatโ€™s honestly how we felt at Kumo. You can feel how much love goes into the food. Every dish feels personal, thoughtful and made with so much care. The whole evening felt very intimate and special. Not like just going to a restaurant, but like someone really wanted to make you happy with every course. We absolutely loved the experience. The food, the atmosphere and especially the feeling behind it. Thank you Kumo for such a beautiful evening and see you soon.
