Hachi is one of Singapore's longest-running omakase restaurants, and in 2026 it sits at Keppel South Central after a nine-month break away from National Gallery. The headline number people search for is the price: lunch starts from S$168++ and dinner from S$238++ per person, with the top Ryu Omakase reaching S$398++ (as of June 2026, per the restaurant's own menu). The catch most diners miss is the ++. Those two plus signs add roughly 19% to whatever you see, so a S$238++ dinner is closer to S$283 a head before drinks. This guide breaks down every tier, shows the real after-tax cost, and looks at the business behind the brand, because founder Fabian Koh has turned a single counter into a six-concept group.
Hachi runs separate lunch and dinner menus, and the gap between them is wide. Lunch is the entry point for anyone who wants the experience without the dinner premium. The figures below are the published 'from' prices on the restaurant's site as of June 2026; seasonal menus and direct-from-Japan ingredients push the actual quote higher on some days, which is why every tier is quoted as 'from'.
The number you should anchor on is not the menu price. It is the menu price plus the ++. In Singapore, '++' means a 10% service charge and 9% GST stacked on top, so the multiplier is 1.10 x 1.09, or about 1.199. Treat any '++' price as roughly 20% more than it looks. If you want to sanity-check a dinner-for-two against your monthly budget, run it through our personal budget calculator before you book.
| Menu | Service | Menu price | After ++ (approx) | Format |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Shun Omakase | Lunch | from S$168++ | ~S$201 | 7-8 dishes, 60-90 min |
| Shiki Omakase | Lunch | from S$238++ | ~S$285 | 90-100 min |
| Hachi Omakase | Lunch | from S$318++ | ~S$381 | 120 min |
| Omakase Dinner | Dinner | from S$238++ | ~S$285 | 8-9 dishes, 90-120 min |
| Hachi Omakase | Dinner | from S$318++ | ~S$381 | premium tier |
| Ryu Omakase | Dinner | from S$398++ | ~S$477 | top tier |
| Takumi Gozen Bento | Lunch set | from S$108++ | ~S$129 | set lunch, not omakase |
If you are eating at Hachi for the first time, the Shun Omakase lunch at S$168++ is the cheapest way in. After the ++ it lands near S$201 a head, which is steep for a weekday lunch but low for counter omakase in Singapore, where dinner-only rooms routinely start north of S$300 nett. The trade-off is course count and pace: lunch runs 7-8 dishes in 60-90 minutes, while dinner stretches to 8-9 dishes over up to two hours.
The set-lunch options are a different product. The Takumi Gozen bento and the kaisen chirashi-don sit at S$108++ (about S$129 nett) and are plated meals, not the progressive omakase. They are the budget door, but you are not getting the counter experience. If you specifically want omakase, the lunch tiers are the honest comparison.
For dinner, the jump from the S$238++ base to the S$398++ Ryu Omakase is a S$160 menu-price gap that becomes roughly S$192 after the ++. Whether that premium is worth it comes down to ingredient grade on the night, since the kitchen sources seasonally. For context on stretching a dining budget across the month, our guide to the best dining rewards credit cards covers cards that rebate 6-10% on restaurant spend.
Singapore restaurant pricing hides a fifth of your bill in two characters. The 9% GST has applied since 1 January 2024 (it rose from 8%), and most full-service restaurants add a 10% service charge. Both compound, so the order matters: service charge first, then GST on the larger amount.
Work a S$398++ Ryu Omakase through it. Service charge of 10% brings it to S$437.80. GST of 9% on that brings it to S$477.20 a head. Two diners at the top tier, before a single drink, is roughly S$954 nett. That is the figure to compare against your discretionary spend, not the S$796 the menu implies.
Hachi reopened in early 2026 at #01-07 Keppel South Central, 10 Hoe Chiang Road in Tanjong Pagar, seating up to about 40 guests across counter, table, semi-private and private rooms. This followed a nine-month hiatus after the restaurant left National Gallery Singapore. The Keppel South Central site is the sixth location in the brand's history and reportedly sits on a ten-year lease, a long commitment that signals the operator is settling in rather than chasing footfall.
Service hours run Monday to Saturday plus public holidays, lunch 12pm-2:30pm and dinner 6pm-11pm, with Sundays closed except for pre-bookings. Reservations go through +65 6734 9622 or enquiries@fkdunamis.com. Semi-private sections have no minimum spend, while the 12-16 pax private room needs the card guarantee mentioned above.
Hachi is run by Fabian Koh, who started in F&B at 16 and took over the then-10-year-old Hachi in 2009 alongside its founding Japanese chef. From that single counter he built a six-concept group, which is the angle the DollarsAndSense profile centres on. The lineup spans Hachi, The Public Izakaya (opened 2013, with a second outlet in 2014), Hoppy Bar (2015), and two newer concepts in the pipeline, Ryumon and Hachi Azabu.
The operating numbers he shared are useful for anyone weighing an F&B venture. Renovation capex ran roughly S$200-S$250 per square foot, so fitting out the 4,600 sqft National Gallery space cost over S$1 million. He recommends planning leases around recovering that capex in the first three years rather than over-committing. The group posted record revenues in 2021 and 2022, and leaned on multiple OCBC Temporary Bridging Loans through the 2020-2022 COVID period to stay liquid.
There is a personal-finance lesson buried in that capex discipline. Recovering a large fixed cost inside three years is the same logic as not letting a single big purchase blow your runway. If you are saving toward a one-off splurge like a milestone omakase dinner, our savings goal calculator shows how small monthly set-asides get you there without raiding your emergency fund, a habit that matters far more than any single S$477 meal.
As of June 2026, Hachi lunch omakase starts from S$168++ per person and dinner from S$238++, rising to S$398++ for the top Ryu Omakase. After the 10% service charge and 9% GST, those land near S$201, S$285 and S$477 nett respectively.
The ++ means a 10% service charge plus 9% GST, applied in that order. They compound to roughly a 19.9% uplift, so a quick rule is to multiply any ++ price by about 1.20 to estimate your final nett cost per person.
Hachi reopened in early 2026 at #01-07 Keppel South Central, 10 Hoe Chiang Road in Tanjong Pagar, after a nine-month break following its departure from National Gallery Singapore. It seats up to about 40 guests.
Yes for first-timers. The Shun Omakase lunch from S$168++ is the cheapest counter-omakase entry, about S$201 nett, versus a dinner base of S$238++ or roughly S$285 nett. Lunch trades a slightly shorter course count and pace for a meaningfully lower price.
