“ Excellent experience, ambiance, and food. Every course was unique and well thought out. This was my first Omakase experience in Boston and it felt very special! 14 courses but you can opt to add more at the end - they have a list of specials (steak & eggs was wonderful) you can choose from. Intimate spot, only 9 seats so definitely plan ahead! This place is a must try for a special occasion. ”
“ This was a lovely experience celebrating our anniversary. The food was great and met expectations. The sake pairing elevated the meal and was well curated. The chawanmushi was good and I’m not big on them normally. The only odd part (I say odd because we’ve done over 3 dozen omakase and never experienced this) was the owner/ manager talking us through the courses. I’ve only ever heard directly from the chefs. Outside of that it was exactly what you’d expect from an omakase. Can’t remember the particular course but one of them blew us away and opened up every sinus. Must try when in Boston! ”
“ My wife and I came here to celebrate my birthday and we had a truly delightful time at No Relation. Each of the 14-course menu brought a new dimension to our experience with a few standout WOW-level moments. We even ran back a couple of the courses so that we could double dip on our faves. Highly recommend! ”
“ I had an amazing omakase experience at No Relation. The sushi was really fresh and not overly seasoned, so I could enjoy the natural seafood flavors. The two chefs were polite and knowledgeable. ”
“ One of the best dining experiences of my life. It’s very intimate (only 9 diners when we went), plus the hostess and two chefs in a small room. It was quiet but I’m sure with the right mix, people might talk more. We were celebrating our anniversary and kept to ourselves. If you want a memorable omakase experience go here. It was also the most “affordable” I found in the area but there’s lots of additions and courses you could add. ”
“ The best sushi omakase experience in Boston. Every piece was exceptional. It may be bit pricy, but the quality is superior. Highly recommend for anniversary or special occasion. Service and atmosphere are at the highest level. Willing to visit again in near future ”
“ Hands down the best omakase experience I've ever had. From the start, you walk down a flight of stairs into 'Shore Leave', a bar known for its huge rum collection, and No Relation is situated behind a corridor that gives off a speakeasy vibe. 9 seats only so you get to know each person who is dining with you. Chef Kenny who is a master of his craft who guides you along the food journeys and Amanda, the graceful captain that guides you through the drinks available on the extensive sake/wine menu. The teamwork behind this concept gives a professional, yet cozy feeling, elevated by the flavors of each of the courses, all of which will blow you away. If you're ever in Boston, you HAVE to go ”
“ Went to No Relation with my business partner the other night for a little celebration. We both enjoyed the food , and also my favorite part- the sake pairing. Most importantly. Great service and great atmosphere will definitely come back. ”
