About Okami Japanese Restaurant

Score endless rounds of freshly prepared Japanese fare—crisp chicken karaage, sushi platters, and beef carpaccio—served fast to your table for a set price. Niddrie regulars know the drill: book ahead for the structured two-hour sitting, bring a serious appetite, and order in steady waves via QR code. Plates arrive within minutes, from steaming agedashi tofu to crunchy prawn tempura. Just order with intent, as the kitchen levies a modest surcharge on leftover plates over 200 grams. Cap the feed with fish-shaped green tea taiyaki and scoops of black sesame ice cream.

  • Two-Hour Feast Sittings: Unlimited table-ordered sushi, sashimi, and hot staples served during allocated two-hour dinner sittings for a fixed per-person price.
  • Rapid Table Service: QR-code orders land on the table within minutes, keeping plates coming without lag.
  • Mindful Ordering Policy: A clear waste surcharge on excess uneaten food keeps portion orders intentional.
