Japanese food is worth a try here. Food delivery is an important advantage of this restaurant. Most guests recommend trying good sushi platter, tofu and beef teriyaki. Tasty sesame ice cream and perfectly cooked green tea ice cream will impress you at the first bite. Most likely, you'll come back to Okami later to try delicious iced green tea.

The pleasant waitstaff works hard, stays positive and makes this place great. But google users haven't given this place a high rating.

My family and I attend the restaurant on Easter Sunday 4th April. Whilst the complaint is not about the food as such. I have called and spoken to Perry on numerous times namely on 5, 8,13,14 and 20/4 regarding a bag that was left behind inadvertently, in it were Easter presents. I was told there was to be a cctv check then was told it was erased..... I believe that having to ring that number of times and be told in the last conversation that I should sent a complaint is terrible. I think you will agree when someone takes something that is not theirs it is a theft no matter how big or small. I now expect a reply as soon as possible, I am happy to be contacted and Perry knows my details. Thank you

Okami Japanese Restaurant, Doncaster EastVisit Update 20/10/2022Another great evening / night out with friends. We ignore some of the negative comments posted recently and determine to have a good time. Well, I can't fault the staff and management.The staff that serves us remind us of penalty if more than 200 gm food waste policy. I find it acceptable as food wastage is ethically wrong and selfish._____________Visit Update 7/7/2021The first session was fully booked, and we have two tables for the second session. There are still plenty of seats left.There is a price increase and some items are not available, and new ones added.We thoroughly enjoy our dinner, and the two young staff who serve well very well.__________________________________Last Visited on 11/11/2020After lockdown restriction is relaxed, a group of friends and I chose to have our first dinner at this all-you-can-eat Japanese "buffet". My wife and I have introduced a number of friends to this place, and on this occasion is of no exception.The porch at the front entrance is a bit run down, with one of the wooden rail rotted and broken.We selected a large variety of dishes, and everyone enjoyed the freshness, taste and flavour of the food.I have decided to improve the rating from 4 stars to 5 stars this time.Well done._________________________________________________Okami Japanese Restaurant, Doncaster EastReviewed on 20/11/2019Great place to have a group of friends who enjoy Japanese food. Plenty of carparking space at rear of restaurant.Unlike a formal Japanese restaurant, which may cost an arm and a leg, the price is very reasonable for all-you-can-eat.It is best to go with a group, so that you can try more variety of dishes.I am a bit partial about the squid, which tends to be rubbery to eat.Please to refer to my previous reviews about the restaurant____________________________________________Boy, oh boy, the restaurant sign lost the "O", and we thought we went to the wrong restaurant. The sign is erected close to Anderson Creek Road, and it is visible at night from the road.Okami Doncaster East belongs the Okami chain, and is an all you can eat Japanese restaurant. Some serves are small, and some are big enough for at least 4. Dinners can order any dish once or numerous times except certain ice cream.We booked the 5 pm seating, and there is plenty of carparking space. The restaurant was not completely full even we finished our dinner.It has an oriental interior deco, not completely Japanese, and dinners do sit on chairs. Some Japanese restaurants in Japan do have arrangement for the clients to sit in squatting position on the a mat.These are a fantastic array of dishes; colourful as well as delicious. The only disappointing one was the miso soup. In the menu , the picture distinctly describe the soup has tofu and seaweed. Even with a microscope, I doubt I could detect the tofu and seaweed, and did ask the waitress to convey the message to the chef. The replacement bowl of soup was just the same.There are many deep fried dishes, the Japanese salad is good to give it a try. The fried Wagyu beef "cube", and raw slices are tender, and juicy.I was a bit partial about the squid. It would be nice if it was tenderised slightly. The prawns were fresh but not raw, and "sweet" to taste.The Wasabi for the Sushi is pretty hot and "potent" and help to clear any nasal blockage in winter.It is desirable if you go with a group of friends, because you can try more variety of dishes.Our friends from the US were more than impressed with the Japanese dine out.
