#9 Best Intimate Counter
Hamamoto Reviews
Last updated August 12, 2026 · By BestThingReview
About Hamamoto
Hamamoto at 58 Tras Street is one of Singapore's most intimate omakase counters, earning 117 Google reviews at 4.9 stars. The relatively lower review count compared to nearby Tras Street neighbours reflects the small seating capacity rather than any deficit in quality; in fact, the restricted diner count is precisely what makes Hamamoto exceptional. With only a handful of seats per service, the chef-to-diner ratio is among the highest on this list, resulting in a deeply personal experience where the chef can tailor pacing, portion, and explanation to each individual at the counter. The menu follows a Japanese multi-course sushi progression with imported seasonal fish, and the Tras Street location makes it straightforward to visit alongside Ki Su or other nearby counters for a dining tour of the neighbourhood. For guests who find larger counter settings impersonal, Hamamoto is the most intimate premium omakase experience in Singapore.

"There were only six of us at the counter and the chef addressed each person by name throughout the meal. The seasonal tuna progression was the most educational and delicious omakase experience I have had in Singapore."
