Ubud Guide
Omakase in Ubud is a chef's-counter dinner served one course at a time, where the kitchen sets the menu. Kumo, the fusion omakase and steak counter at Riviera Boutique Hotel on Jalan Raya Pengosekan, serves this format in central Ubud, with dinner seatings from 5pm to 10pm daily.
Omakase means leaving the choice to the chef. Instead of ordering from a menu, you are served a sequence of courses the kitchen has chosen and paced, usually from the counter so you see each course prepared. It works best when you tell the team about allergies or foods you avoid before service begins.
A fusion omakase keeps the course-by-course, chef-led structure of a Japanese omakase but draws on ingredients and techniques from beyond the traditional canon. At Kumo that means a Japanese, fusion and steakhouse range across the sequence, so a counter dinner can move from lighter opening courses toward a steak course.
Kumo at Riviera Boutique Hotel serves fusion omakase and steak from a chef's counter on Jalan Raya Pengosekan in central Ubud. Dinner runs from 5pm to 10pm daily. Because it sits inside the hotel, it is an easy option for guests and a bookable dinner for anyone in the central belt near the Monkey Forest.
Book ahead, since counter seats are limited. Arrive on time so the sequence stays on pace for everyone at the counter. Share any dietary restrictions when you book, not mid-service. Come hungry but unhurried; the format is meant to unfold over the evening rather than rush.
The same site keeps a spa and massage room and a cafe and coffee lounge, so a dinner at Kumo can sit alongside a spa appointment earlier in the day or coffee the next morning without leaving the grounds.
