Great food and service was good considering the amount of diners on the night
Had a lovely time, enjoyed the food very much and the staff were wonderful! Thank you.
Amazing service and food as always, will be back soon 🍱🍣 🍣
a nice experience and we will be back with thanks
The food was shocking. I ended up throwing up after as the chicken wasn’t cooked properly neither was the steak. Went home after and laid in bed with killer stomach pain until I ended up throwing up.
Usually great but this time ordering and delivery of food was very slow we actually had to grab a waiter to order and a couple of our teenagers were still hungry when we left
Perfect as always good food, good service loved it. Z
Good as always never have an issue love coming here for a night of good food
Always good food but would love for them to put tune on the sushi platter when it’s in the pictures I know it’s expensive but that’s what I go for and not to get and then they said u have to ask or only for big table is disappointing and sounds like a location roll not a OKAMI franchise rule otherwise good food and service and will come again
Great food as always great service only thing is tables are getting closer and closer together :/ had to put my water , bag and menus on the floor cause couldn’t fit more then 1 plate on tiny table
Had an excellent night out would highly recommend will return
really good experience at Okamis pakenham and really good service by Rock. will be attending again.
Our family dined at OKAMI Pakenham on Saturday night. The atmosphere and decor was nice however that is where it ended. The service was extremely poor for a restaurant that was not busy. Upon seating we waited 15 minutes to be served by a waitress. We had to ask a waitress who walked by to serve us. We explained to the waitress that since it was our first time we were not familiar with the ordering process. The waitress did not explain the order process appropriately or that you could order individual portions . The waitress took the order for our food and we waited a further 20 minutes for any food to arrive. The food quality was not great. The chicken bites were dry and cold, the beef was like cardboard and the octopus bites were covered in a soup that made the dish inedible. We had to send the octopus bites back. Other dishes tried including the teriyaki skewers and fried rice lacked any seasoning. The spring rolls were akin to the frozen ones you can buy in the supermarket. The sushi however was excellent and the only redeeming quality. We believe the concept of the restaurant has potential however the quality of food is sub standard for Japanese ( it feels mass produced and lacks any authenticity) however the service is the real letdown. The wait staff were inefficient, abrupt and lacked customer service skills. There was no continuity of our waiter ( we had 4 different wait staff in 2 hours) and as a result some of the food that we ordered did not arrive or food was served that we did not order. Although it is a buffet and you pay a fixed price, there is a 10 per cent surcharge for every 200 grams of food left on the plate. This could unfairly punish diners who don’t like some of the dishes or where portion sizes have been incorrectly put through by the wait staff ( as was our case).
Love okamis Always good food and lots of it Will always suggest for a good time and fill up your tummy
Great night with good food clean and responsible staff service
Great food and friendly staff. Will definitely be back again.
it's very good value for money, all you can eat! though i would love more times that it is open, instead of just two time slots a night
The food and service was amazing. I highly recommend here
Amazing food as always Will definitely be back again soon
We are regulars at the Pakenham location and have always had great food and great service. Thank you
Great place to eat, enjoy the atmosphere and food also that’s BYO
We think the food quality has dropped since our last visit, food was not hot as it should be. A little disappointed to be honest. Service was okay.
Perfect food every time and on time. Loved the quality and the portion size. Just right
Food was great but some food items came out slower then others but overall it was great
Ok, except all dishes a bit too salty and getting thirsty easily
Service and food was amazing. Booking in was easy. Plenty of room for a pusher. Highly recommended.
Fantastic services and cosy atmosphere. Definitely come back if I have a chance.
Some of the staff weren’t very friendly and sounded annoyed with us requesting to order more or for having to take the plates (we didn’t ask).
Very good food and the staff taking orders quickly only thing is they squished the tables so close together I heard next table also say how close do they want the tables I even had to just my bag menu and water on the floor cause there was no room for more then 2 small dishes on the table
Awesome food and great service. Wonderful value for money! Definitely be back!
Service was slow. Food was great and consistent with previous visits.
Food is always great. Service is good too. Pakenham is my favourite one
Awesome food, as always. I have tried three of these restaurants at different locations and I cannot complain.
Great service & atmosphere 👏 will definitely come back again
Love love love the food always good as expected. Especially the Green tea ice cream
Great food, great atmosphere will be back for more soon
a great dining experience, a good place for celebrating with family and friends
perfect as always! love coming here for birthdays an special occasions
Will be going to the here again when there is more bookings
Good food and service will go again once tables become available
Best service and speed we’ve had to date. Unfortunately the food quality didn’t match this time. Vegan options were perfect but the dishes for our meat eaters had poor cuts of meat and they’re other dishes didn’t meet the flavour and quality we’ve had on every other visit.
Best restaurant ever. Lovely variety of food and great customer service.
Great Place to go for a dinner out! Never disappoints!
Across the board…Okami is a winner! Great place, great atmosphere, great service and great food!
Great Food! Great for a casual dinner out with family & friends!!
Always good service, quick and polite. Food has always been amazing!
Catch up with Friends & Family, this is the perfect place with it being great food at an affordable price.
Food is really yummy. Just wish they had blinds down or aircon on to count hotter weather and the sun
Fast service tonight and good food like always. One of our family favourites
We love Okami….The food is delicious & so much variety. The staff are wonderful! Fast service with a smile. 10/10
