About the restaurant

We are a team of young and inspired professionals taking down the walls between kitchen and guests and taking you on a culinary adventure. Immerse yourself in a progressive tasting menu focusing on the simple, yet luxurious, ingredients around the world with deep inspiration from Japanese cuisine.

We challenge the seasons, navigate beyond the limits of time and break with tradition— getting playful with process and tricky with techniques at the intersection of place and possibility.

At Ômo we offer a unique and exclusive experience to only 16 guest at a time. The journey starts in the living room with a welcome drink and snacks, then you are transported into the main counter overlooking the kitchen where you will enjoy all the savory bites in an interactive environment. At the end, you will transition to the pastry parlor to continue your experience with sweet bites and after dinner drinks.

From the appetizers to the main course and dessert, every dish was a masterpiece. Chef Steven Rojas has truly brought a culinary gem to the area. My wife and I gladly make the drive from Lakeland to savor these epic creations. Our only regret? Not discovering this place sooner! Do yourself a favor and indulge in the best food Central Florida has to offer.
