Ozeki Japanese

My friends and I love this place! Friendly and fast service even when it’s busy. Their sushi is great and always fresh. As a sushi lover this is always my go-to restaurant

Came on a Friday and it was super busy with big groups. Staff were very friendly. Food was reasonably priced. The vegetable gyoza were nice but not traditional in the way they were cooked and the filling. The agedashi tofu was yummy! The tofu set was very generous but there was barely any teriyaki sauce and the tofu wasn’t cooked like I’ve seen in other Japanese places with a crispy outer layer and a soft middle. It was cooked similar to a Thai restaurant? The miso was good! <br/ <br/ Would go back, the fact that it’s BYO is a definite plus.

Excellent!  Gourmet Japanese at its best!<br/ <br/ The food at Ozeki is superb.  Always fresh and prepared<br/ with caring attention to detail.  Each dish is lovingly created and absolutely delicious.<br/ The presentation in bento boxes and Japanese artistic crockery<br/ looks great too!  Check out the pictures on the Ozeki Facebook page and the Ozeki website.  I had the bento box with teriaki vegetables, agadashi tofu<br/ and assorted tempura along with rice, miso soup and a green<br/ garden salad dressed with a tasty vinagarette.  The menu is huge and includes the whole range of sashimi, sushi and delectable appetizers like dumplings, edamame, skewers and fritters.<br/ If you're unsure what to order, the friendly staff are always willing to make suggestions for a wonderful selection.<br/ Ozeki is vegetarian and vegan friendly.  They will make sure to cater for your personal dietary needs. It is family owned and the cozy warm atmosphere reflects this. The chairs are comfortable and the tables are made from feel at home wood.<br/ This place is without doubt, the absolute go to Japanese restaurant in Wellington.<br/ The staff really care and treat every guest with respect and personal attention.

The thing I like about this place is that they are pretty close to hitting the mark with Japanese food (tempura was pretty close to anything I got in Japan) and the Kastudon was not bad either but the thing I like about this place is that they were super fast in bringing the food and you always get a lot of it. I will return no problem.

My fave restaurant in Wellington. The atmosphere is great. Family owned and very friendly service The food is great too : Highly recommend.
