OKAMI - Brunswick

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

Staff are great , always fun, great birthday effort as well from the staff for my daughter

Service is good but gets notably slower as the crowd builds. Food is good and the price is excellent. It’s great value for money.

Amasing food, fantastic staff and great resturant. We'll be back.

They were quick to assist and were very polite. The food was wonderful and drinks were great

Great food, lovely staff 😋 😀 👌 😊 👍 😍

Great food and staff amazing thanks and highly recommend and will be returning

Food tasty but Very slow service. Waited too long between each plate. Got food we didn’t even order and not what we ordered.

The service tonight was very slow. We had to ask multiple times for our food. The food itself was fine.

Quite noisy, and too few wait staff, resulting in a 30 minute delay after being seated before the staff were able to take an order. Gave up trying to order a drink which was in stock. Used to be our favourite Okami, but seems to be overly busy now and a bit swamped.

Very slow service, been waiting for more then 40 min for our dishes to arrive

Service poor. The all you can eat model appears to succeed (for them) because they are under staffed and as a result your ability to order is curtailed. In addition, it’s takes too long for food to come out once ordered. For the price, we won’t be back.

First time being there. Better than what we expected. Thanks.
