Good food at reasonable prices Have been returning every couple of weeks, the venue is a little small but that adds to the atmosphere, pleasent waiters and food as fresh as any other more expensive Japanese restaurant I have been to highly recommended.

We have been there for the first time and we'll be back! The food and service are outstanding, everything is cooked to order. You won't get easily filled as like in rsl type buffet where all the food is greasy so you get a good deal for your buck. Highly recommending!

All you can eat Japanese at okami is super good value and all fresh delicious dishes! Love their sashimi and sushi platters and the takoyaki are so good!

We were seating quite quickly. A waitress approached us within the first 10 mins. It was clean and the food was good. The only downside is the food took a bit long to come but lovely experience nonetheless :)

Food was very good. Beef carpaccio (tataki) was excellent. Tempura batter was a bit average. Service was okay apart from the fact they forgot a couple of things we had ordered. Will go back again.

Great value and variety. Staff were prompt and polite. Ice creams (except for vanilla) weren't unlimited though. Best to go in larger groups and during less crowded times.

Food was pretty good. Very affordable for an All You Can Eat place, however the servings are quite small compared to other locations and thus I had to constantly keep ordering more dishes. Personally I didn't like the music playlist but that's just my personal preference. Was planning to stay for 30minutes to 1hr but due to small servings and waiting time for dishes to come out we ended up staying for 1hr 30mins to get full. But service was great and staff was very friendly and was not annoyed that I kept calling them to order more. They were very fast and efficient. Overall a great, affordable place to eat!

Great food, great place. The wait staff can sometimes be a bit intimidating and every time I picked up the menu, I felt rushed to make a decision. Despite all this, they were very friendly. Would go back

Don't allow to choose my options as a set. Example, when I order shashimi set, I can't choose I don't want sushi as I can't eat too much rice.

Beautiful food and delightful service. You need to get the hang of the ordering system as you order as much as you want to eat and to start with it is a little hard to know how much you are going to get each time. Very good value for money

Okami is a very clean restaurant with a welcoming atmosphere. The staff were friendly and prompt with clearing the table and easy with requesting additional menu items. It was a very fast service.

Food quality was substandard and definitely not authentic Japanese Cuisine. Majority of the staff did not know how to speak English. Dishes ordered came out within 20 minutes of each other allowing for you to feel full in between meals (certainly a ploy to ensure that clients do not order much food from this buffet). Some meals we ordered didn't even arrive at all.

The buffet all you can eat is not an "All you can eat". It's more like all you can order. Netherless, foods are good, variety of choice, fast, clean

OKAMI is an amazing place....it's the best AYCE sushi that $30 can buy you...The staff was lovely, great service...The range of sushis wasn't huge, but the whole package worth each dollar I paid for...Moreover, the homemade macha & sesame seeds ice cream is an awesome extra!

Okami Footscray was providing good service and nice food! The prices are definitely worthy! highly recommended it! But I heard that not every Okami is as good as this one. So the one in Footscray is the best!

Took a while to be seated but once at the table service was efficient. Food was a bit hit and miss. The hits Good sushi but sashimi lacked variety only salmon. Fresh seeweed salad, excellent beef carpaccio but very bland steak terriaki. Good Saki
