Umamii x Sumibiyaki Arashi: An Elevated Yakitori Omakase
Only 12 seats available.
Join us on Saturday, August 15 for an intimate, one-night-only dining experience at Sumibiyaki Arashi, one of Vancouver’s most celebrated and difficult-to-book restaurants.
Sumibiyaki Arashi has quickly become one of Canada’s most acclaimed restaurants, earning one Michelin Star, ranking No. 17 on Canada’s 100 Best Restaurants 2026, and placing No. 8 on Air Canada’s Best New Restaurants 2025.
For this special Around the Table experience, Chef Pete Ho and his team are creating an elevated version of their yakitori-focused omakase.
This experience is not available when booking directly with the restaurant.
The evening will feature more courses, premium ingredients, seasonal seafood, bold vegetable dishes, unexpected flavours and textures, and curated wine and sake pairings.
With only 12 seats available, we expect this dinner to sell out quickly. Don’t sleep on this one.
