They took forever and forgot few things we order hard to get attention from wait staff to order food
Food good Service was terrible will go back though .
Have been to this restaurant 3 times now. First 2 times were grand, this time wasn't as. Forgot a bunch of our orders, had to re order a few times, service was very slow. What a big gap between ordering.
Great value for money and yummy food...Will come back more😃😃
This was the 3rd time I have been to this restaurant and I will definitely be going back. The staff are friendly and the service is great. If you love Japanese food, I highly recommend this place for a great dinning experience.
lack of flavour deep friend muck not authentic japanese service very good tho
Incredible fresh food! Would highly recommend ! Fantastic table service!
Full house so a little noisy. Food was wonderful although there was some waiting between dishes possibly because of the crowd.
Food was delicious, staff were friendly and efficient. Had an amazing first time and will definitely be back!
Okami is quick, crowded and serve delicious foods. We haven't order all you can eat before so this is our first experience but unfortunately the man looks like impatient and getting intense when he has to explained about the all you can eat rules. It's used to be friendly service but not sure now.
Beautiful food, fantastic service! Great value! Will be back! 😋
Great family friendly dining experience, kids have thoroughly enjoyed themselves which helps us adults enjoy the experience as well
There was only one person taking orders with all the other staff serving the food. Everyone on our table did not get the chance to order the first time as the waiter was too busy and he said he had another table he had to take orders for. It was very hard to order food with only one person taking orders. We had to wait for ages before we could order ice cream for the kids. Food was also bought to our table that we did not order. We were charged for a beer that we did not order however we did not see this until we got home.
Fantastic staff.Wonderful food.Amazing atmosphere, all at a great price.Excellent experience
That food was fairly good but service for me on the night was a bit off as myself and my fellow guests we're ordering food but we're not getting them as quickly as others around us.
We really enjoyed our dining experience and definitely will return and will tell our friends
My wife and I went for our anniversary and were delighted with the whole night. We would definatly reccomrnd it to our family and friends.
Excellent service and food!! Really enjoyed our experience for both adults and children
Everything was fantastic. Great food, great service and all round amazing
Our first visit and it definitely will not be our last. We had a lovely evening with family and staff and food were amazing.
Excellent food and excellent service. Will definitely dine there again
We both had the banquet. Enjoyed tasting different foods. Loved the experience. Was our 4th visit.
I was very happy to find that Okami had a dedicated vegan menu.
This was awesome. Great food. Great service and the dishes came out so fast. Would definitely come back again. Given the amount of people all entering at the same time and ordering at the same time, the service is amazing. Well done!
We found that the wait staff we totally confused with the ordering and where the tables were. We did not get the right food, it was given to the table next to us. We ordered but the food still was taking a long time. As for the head waiter, he was rude and found excuses for all our requests. We asked if we could pay cash and the rest on card, he said no and made us wait in line while he served everyone else. We felt so humiliated, we just wanted to pay!! We won’t unfortunately, be back to the Bendigo restaurant, but will go back to the Geelong one as it was top service and excellent food. The couple that sat next to us, just gave up waiting for some of their meals and were also disappointed. Overall we rate our experience a fail 😠
We loved our 1st dining experience there, we will definitely go back for sure. Staff were very friendly, accommodating to our special needs daughters needs and food was fresh and come out in great timings. added bonus our fussy son ate food he wouldn't normally eat or try!! Look forward to going there again soon. Thanks Nikki

First time . Greeted, seated , ordering explained. Wine glasses arrived, food arrived , plates cleared, smiling faces all round . Definitely heading back soon
My friend and I were visiting Bendigo for the Mary Quant exhibition and decided to try Okami - another friend had recommended their Wantirna restaurant and loved it. The Bendigo Okami is a stylish restaurant, I liked the decor and the black melamine tableware. It's very popular - we arrived at 7.30pm for the 7.45pm sitting, there was a large group of customers outside waiting to enter. Some tables from the 5.30pm sitting were slow to leave and there was a queue waiting to pay, so everyone outside had to be patient, thank goodness it wasn't raining. I was really impressed by the efficiency of the staff, they were so helpful whilst working under a lot of pressure. Our order was taken fairly quickly, the food came out fairly quickly and we enjoyed what we ate. The dishes aren't very big, so I suggest ordering 4-6 dishes for 2 people to start with. It is no problem ordering extra dishes. The restaurant is a little noisy so may not suit those who have trouble hearing. If you have a good appetite , Okami will be excellent value and you can try lots of different dishes - ideal for anyone not familiar with Japanese cuisine.
Amazing food, great service, will be back for sure! Great
The premise was nice and clean but the service was just ok, waited too long to order
Always yummy, would like a dessert option that isn’t ice cream.
Food was absolutely immaculate, the quality was amazing. We will definitely be back! 10/10 to all staff for running such a busy restaurant so smoothly! Good to finally have some good quality Japanese in bendigo!
The food was great, good job Chef. The waiting staff not so much. We order food by a waitress but was told after waiting some time we hadn't ordered by waiter with tablet. It took a long time to order drinks then get the drinks.
We had the best experience here! The staff are very friendly and efficient. The food is great and it is something quite different for Bendigo!
Great food, excellent atmosphere, delicious range of Japanese cuisine in Bendigo
Food was amazing and came out so quickly! Great Value for money 10/10 would recommend a visit, and there's different foods for everyone!
Service was mediocre Food -mmmmm as expected - sashimi fridge cold as was the carpaccio- obviously not made to order Ice cream was the highlight Been there, done that - will not go again
Food and service was amazing. Will definitely be back. Thanks.
