About Okami Japanese Restaurant

Skip the lukewarm buffet trays—Okami serves made-to-order Japanese dishes straight to your table for an easy, flat per-person price. Tap the app and keep the continuous plates rolling across a two-hour sitting. Regulars pack the lively Beach Street dining room for family birthdays and group feasts, passing around platters of freshly sliced sashimi, pan-fried gyoza, and crisp vegetable tempura. Just order with intention—surcharges apply if plate waste tops 200g—before cooling off with scoops of matcha ice cream.

  • Made-to-order banquet: Dishes are prepared fresh to order via digital table ordering rather than sitting out under buffet warmers.
  • Paced two-hour sittings: Tables run on two-hour dining sittings designed for an unhurried, steady progression of dishes.
  • Mindful waste policy: Per-person pricing includes continuous rounds of sushi, tempura, and mains, with a policy for leftovers over 200g.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the all-you-can-eat ordering system work?

Okami operates an all-you-can-eat banquet model where freshly prepared dishes are ordered via a digital QR code app straight to your table rather than served from a buffet counter. Portion sizes are designed smaller so you can sample and reorder across courses. Be mindful when ordering, as an extra fee may be charged for food wastage exceeding 200g.

Do I need to book a table in advance?

Booking in advance is strongly recommended. The venue is compact, heavily booked, and operates in structured seating sessions that regularly reach capacity, meaning walk-ins or last-minute phone calls may face long waits or turned-away tables.

When is the restaurant open and does it offer lunch?

Yes, table reservations are available and can be made in advance. Dinner is served Monday and Wednesday through Sunday starting from 5:00 PM or 5:30 PM, with Sunday also offering a midday lunch sitting from 12:00 PM to 2:30 PM. The restaurant is closed on Tuesdays.
