Background
About Jara Sushi Omakase
The Story
Jara Sushi Omakase opened in August 2024 on a quiet stretch of Carrer de Pàdua in el Putxet i el Farró, a residential pocket north of Sant Gervasi. The restaurant is run by two brothers, Jonathan Alexander Jara Gonzalez at the sushi counter and Robby Jara in the dining room. Ten seats face the chef, and the format pairs a chef-led omakase progression with a full à la carte carta driven by each morning's fish selection.
The Cuisine
The kitchen runs two formats side by side. The ten-seat counter serves a chef-led omakase progression at €95 per guest, with the day's fish setting the sequence. The à la carte carta spans starters, sashimi by the piece, uramaki including a Wagyu A5 roll, maki and futomaki, classic and special nigiri (otoro, Wagyu A5, super salmon with fresh truffle), and desserts such as yuzu crema catalana and artisan mochi by Takashi Ochiai. A curated Japanese sake list and a wine list across Spain, France, Italy, Germany and Chile run alongside.
The Team
Jara is run by two brothers. Jonathan Alexander Jara Gonzalez (Instagram @jara_chef_) leads the sushi counter, plating each piece in front of the ten guests. His brother Robby (@robby_jara) manages the dining room. The restaurant has hosted collaborations with sommelier François Chartier and Riedel glassware since opening.

Experience
Jara Sushi Omakase Dining Experience
Intimate, counter-style dining where the chef works in front of you. Quiet conversation, no music dominance. The omakase format means you're committing to the chef's sequence; diners describe an unrushed, sequential meal driven by what the fish supplier brought that day.
