Why go
Book 1033 Omakase if you want Milwaukee’s dedicated chef-led sushi counter rather than a casual roll-and-sashimi dinner. The value is in the small-room format, the chef-selected progression, and a beverage program that leans naturally toward sake while leaving room for wine and cocktails.
About 1033 Omakase
1033 Omakase is a fit for diners who specifically want omakase/Japanese dining in Milwaukee and are comfortable with a $130-per-person commitment. The decision is less about choosing from a broad menu and more about committing to an omakase experience shaped by Chef Worawit “Ray” Boonyapituksakul.
The menu information points to a focused omakase format: a Supreme 14-course omakase, a Classic 10-course omakase, a nigiri lineup that includes hamachi, akami, chutoro, otoro and related selections, plus preparations such as black cod, toro and wagyu, and tuna tartare. That makes it a stronger fit for diners who want a structured Japanese meal than for guests looking for a flexible à la carte dinner.
An omakase dinner built for commitment, not casual sushi
The reason to book is the omakase format. The meal centers on a progression from Chef Worawit “Ray” Boonyapituksakul, also known as Chef Ray, with options that include the Supreme 14-course omakase and the Classic 10-course omakase. At $130 per person, the value depends on whether you want that kind of chef-directed Japanese meal.
This is not the best choice for someone who mainly wants to browse a long list of rolls or build a meal course by course. It is better suited to diners who are interested in nigiri, cooked preparations such as black cod, and richer items such as toro and wagyu preparations within an omakase structure.
Plan around the food format, price, and schedule
Information for 1033 Omakase does not establish a specific beverage program, so the booking decision should be based on the food format, price, and schedule rather than on an assumed drinks experience.
The dining framework is omakase/Japanese cuisine, a $130-per-person price, and service hours that run Wednesday through Saturday from 5:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. with limited Tuesday seatings at 5:30 p.m. 6:45 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. for the Classic menu only. The restaurant is closed Monday.
Who should choose it, and who should not
Choose 1033 Omakase for a planned Milwaukee dinner built around a structured omakase experience. It is a less obvious fit for diners who want maximum menu control, a casual à la carte meal, or a lower-cost Japanese dinner. The smart-casual dress code also makes it feel more like a planned reservation than an impromptu stop.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the omakase worth it at 1033 Omakase?
Yes, if you want omakase/Japanese dining and are comfortable at $130 per person. The format makes more sense for diners who want a structured progression than for people who prefer to choose every course. For a looser sushi dinner in Milwaukee, a standard à la carte Japanese spot will give you more control.
What should a first-timer know about 1033 Omakase?
Go in expecting a focused omakase experience at $130 per person, not a build-your-own sushi meal. Tuesday service is limited to 5:30 p.m. 6:45 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. with the Classic menu only, while Wednesday through Saturday runs from 5:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. The restaurant is closed Monday.
Does 1033 Omakase handle dietary restrictions?
Specific dietary-accommodation policies are not established here. If allergies, restrictions, or menu substitutions matter, contact the restaurant before booking so you can decide whether the omakase format works for your needs.
What are alternatives to 1033 Omakase in Milwaukee?
If you want more control, choose an à la carte sushi or Japanese restaurant in Milwaukee instead of a fixed omakase experience. That is the better move for groups with mixed preferences, tighter budgets, or diners who do not want a set progression. 1033 Omakase makes sense when the omakase format itself is the draw; otherwise, a more flexible Japanese spot will be easier to use.
