    The service was friendly and professional. The food was well presented and we had some really nice entrees. The outstanding dish is the crab meat croquettes and the okonomomiyaki skewers. Worth visiting and we will be back again.

    Tasty food but small serves, overpriced. Dessert banana fritter $21.50- came with honey, tho menu said Maple Syrup and the berries listed in menu were not there. Without a discount, OKAMI Japanese offers more for less

    Their food quality is great. The restaurant itself is spacious, and the music is not too loud. The food served quickly, and the taste is good.

    Staff are not professional enough when taking order. When I requested and explained I can’t take spicy mayo initially staff doesn’t advice me on my other dishes also contain spicy mayo. The look of actual food didn’t match with their own ordering menu. Overall very disappointed

    It would be better if the restaurant did not advise customers to order at the table via third-party app which charged us full price upon ordering. Though the restaurant promised that a refund would be processed with the fork festival discount, the trouble is unnecessary.

    This was a very good meal. Everything was extremely fresh, very tasty and hot. We were very very impressed and will definitely come to this restaurant again. I feel that the pricing with the Fork app made it good value. however at the full price would be a little overpriced. Overall I will definitely book this restaurant again and Wise where beautiful Service beautiful meal & very fresh

    Was a lovely dinner, although it was only really made worth it with the 50% discount (minus 10% weekend surcharge) from the fork. Although the service was wonderful and the food was tasty and good quality I wouldn’t pay full price for it.

    Service is good. No complaint to their waitress. Food taste is too heavy or too sweet for the pot. The food portion is so little even for a $140 meal without drink. We need to buy extra food elsewhere.

    The food was great! More attention is required to the wine list. We were facing the back of the restaurant which didn’t have the nicest aspect but the rest of the restaurant was nice. The staff were attentive but also let you have privacy and weren’t in your face.

    Food portions are fair but the raindrop cake is so small and tasteless. Plenty of room to improve for the food taste.
