Sushi Omakase by Walt

Originally from a German–Lithuanian family and born in Venezuela, sushi shokunin Walter Sidoravicius has worked across the world — including a formative year in Tokyo — before settling in Ibiza two years ago. I first met him during that period, when restaurants were closed and he was preparing high-end sushi boxes from home, already showing remarkable precision.

Today, Walter is the chef-owner of Omakase by Walt, an eight-seat Edo-mae counter in Ibiza’s old town. Behind the wooden bar, he serves a traditional omakase that highlights the exceptional fish and crustaceans found in Spain and around the island, handled with clarity, discipline and a deep respect for technique.
