Delicious food, great service, chill vibe. Always a fun time!
Awesome food and drinks - great value for money. Noisy customers with screaming kids were the only downside... might be worth visiting at a different time (or just hoping for better luck) next time!
Always a great feed for the family. Fresh, variety and quick service. Affordable Japanese dining option.
Beautiful food & great service but unfortunately quite busy and noisey
Not the highest quality food but great for all you can eat.
Always awesome keep it up that’s why we come back
This was probably the worst visit. I think it may be due the Valentine’s Day bookings. Food was warm at best. Service was extra slow. When I asked what else was due to come out as I didn’t want to over order the staff told me they had no idea. They did have heart shaped cup cakes as a token gift, which was nice.
Very cold - freezing air conditioning. Courses arrive very randomly and kept waiting far too long. Need double the staff. Drinks confusing - hard to tell what is alcohol and what not. Desserts disappointing. Staff friendly, but overwhelmed and need more servers. Food okay - but not hot, for above reasons. Staff
We waited 40 minutes without any food being served. The restaurant was severely understaffed.
Caught up with some friends. Austin’s great. Love the service. Food was fast and served hot.
Been here many times, hit and miss with food temperatures. Overall good food for the price.
Food was average this visit, was a little disappointed, service was slow due to crowd I guess
Food was great and value for money. Would go again
Good food, bad + unwelcoming service and terribly long wait times.
We booked online but chose the wrong sitting and the staff were very helpful to change this for us over the phone. The food was lovely overall, however there was a bit of wait time on some food. The table next to us seemed fine though. To be honest, for us it's a little expensive for a 13 yr old to pay Adult price particularly when the child doesn't each much. You also have to be very concious about the servings. It's not the most comfy setting, however we can't really fault the food, and it is good there is not much wastage.
We are still waiting for our order?!?!? Worst service - so slow And the attitude when we asked about missing dishes ordered over an hour prior Take a leaf from greensborough store - you order from the app at your table - much more reliable and efficient.
We visit Okami restaurants often, and feel that standards are beginning to slip On this occasion: - Miso soup was barely warm - Shumai were barely warm - Chicken katsu was cold and returned to kitchen - No ginger was provided on the Sashimi Platter (which wouldn’t normally be a problem if not for the lack of staff to place an order) - Not all food was delivered - Lack of staff to place an order (except for one female staff member who was excellent)
I enjoy this place, but book early so you don’t miss out. It’s always busy.
Great restaurant all round . Will keep going back there.
The food was so good. It's a very noisy restaurant. Music should be turned off its very distracting. We ordered the last 3 dishes before the time cut off. They did not arrive. In total we had 6 dishes missing. Didnt arrive. We had no explanation. I have been to the Geelong one before and no issues. This was my 4 family members 1st time so disappointed
Service very slow waited 30 minutes and were ignored before going to counter to ask if we could order food and drinks. Finally someone came
Food was excellent however super busy and very noisy on a Friday night hard to have a conversation
Your staff members were professional, friendly and prompt. Your dishes were excellent, tasty and delicious. We have no complaints.
Service seemed to be purposely slowed down. Servings were smaller despite price rise to $43. Tables were getting served 1 tiny plate at a time which was ridiculous for our table of 6 people. Staff were not friendly at all.
Everything amazing delicious, Thank you so much for the amazing service
Excellent food and staff were friendly. the food came out quickly so no time was wasted. Great selection of Japanese food. Great place for families and kids(also has kids options). Highly recommended.
Great service & great food! Will definitely return for another booking!
The service is always pleasing, and the environment is excellent. I am happy to come again.
We managed to go on a Wednesday night when they have All You can Eat” for a set price. Super great food and will return.
Excellent! Will go back next time i am in Melbourne
The staff are not friendly and everytime you order something they look annoyed especially one lady. Thd tables are too small so the plates were on top of each other. For an all you can eat tables ars pretty small. Restaurant is small. Tables are too close together so there is no privacy. Did not like atmosphere felt on edge and uncomfortable.
It’s been a great time. We enjoyed the food and lovely service
Great food, great service and great value for money! Would definitely return when in Melbourne next!
Sushi/sashimi was fresh, well presented and the rice was good: nutty and well textured. Fried dishes were oily and heavily sauced - not the delicate flavours I was expecting. Beef dishes likewise over sauced (thick, syruppy) Agadashi tofu good. Lightly fried and in a refreshing ginger sauce with the right amount of benito. If I were to go back I would opt for the sashimi and sushi and give the fried foods a miss. Be prepared to wait for the sashimi platter.. it was the first thing we ordered but waited at least half an hour for it. Prawn gyoza and agadashi tofu arrived beforehand. Dessert ice cream ok.
Food fantastic really enjoyed the evening 🤩thank you staff friendly
Friendly staff, fresh and tasty food. Service can be a little slow during busy times.
the food is nice. The staff are awesome! Thank you
Very bland food,no flavor whatsoever, we ordered porc that tasted like chicken, dry boiled vegetables limp and no taste, fried rice dry, we chose a la carte hoping for a better choice . Very noisy restaurant, waiter barely spoke english, dreadful experience, very sub standard. Not happy at all,
The atmosphere was great. Our food came out really quick. The food itself was fantastic, enjoyed it immensely. Such a great idea, as well as enjoying the food we love the experience. Sharing and getting to taste a number of dishes.
the food was fantastic and came quickly. the staff were friendly and very attentive.
Owaishi kata, every thing very good, easy to order easy to eat
Great food great service. Will be back soon Thank you
Clean, friendly staff, quick service. Atmosphere could be improved. Amenities near kitchen...
Everything we had was really good. Good environment. Will come back again.
Great fresh food and wonderful team. The wait time for food is a little long though, especially for a bottled beer. But worth it overall
Staff was superb & amazing! Very responsive and also helped me set up a little birthday surprise (music and candle on an ice cream) for my husband during our dinner. BIG THANKS to the OKAMI staff in Brunswick!!! Excellent service and great food as always
The staff were great but ordering experience was messy we missed out on dishes and got others. Self service iPads would be great or at codes
Last sitting on a Monday evening. The staff were still friendly and helpful. The food was tasty - wide variety of options. Great value relaxed dining.
Great service and the food came quickly. I will definitely recommend.
Nice place. Will be great if an additional waiter helps customers
