OKAMI Pennant Hills

Went on opening night so keep that in mind. Seems crazy that they don’t stagger the start times of the second sitting. It means you have a full restaurant of people queuing up and all seated at the same time. This then means the wait staff are run off their feet taking orders and it feels like they will never get to your table. But when they finally do, the food does come out relatively quickly. The staff were absolutely pumped and working so hard. The mayhem did mean that we had to ask for a wine glass about 4 times before we finally got one. The food - good value for money when you consider it’s “all you can eat” for ~ $36 however the quality and taste of the food was on par with average food court Japanese. Salmon Sashimi and beef dishes were good. Tempura tasted greasy as did the fried chicken, and the assorted sushi all tasted the same and the rice wasn’t particularly good. Such a shame as I was looking forward to adding another local Japanese to my list.
