Oki Japan is very tasty and at a great price. We were there before the circus, which was on the lot and had a nice meal. It is located inside the Lakewood Center Mall.The place is small and does a lot of to go and delivery. There are some nice places to sit and the mall area right out front as a lot of seating.We had shrimp tempura and rice which was great and some sushi. The sushi was good, not great. We will have something else next time. Their beef bento box was really good and their vegetables are steamed nicely and they are super tasty. Their chicken teriyaki is excellent.The place is clean and the service is really nice and they are fast. Have fun.

I have been going here for a couple years but I had an experience in which the Terriyaki sauce was super salty and mention it to the owner and took the feedback in a negative way. I really enjoy the food but I had a bad experience which the sauce was super salty when it usually is more on the sweet side. Definitely a hit or miss in my opinion.

The food is very good! I enjoy a chicken plate with noodles. The service is hit or miss. When they are in a good mood the service is overall
The issue is not the flavor or the quality of the food but the lack of friendliness and speed of service. I have been to several joint similar to this one (there is one in Cerritos mall for example).. and the service in this one is sloooowwwwww..You got to have your top selling plate ready to serve and not cook to order. This is a mall fast food not a gourmet sit down restuarant.

Chicken dried out and hard, barely edible. It was sitting in the corner of the grill, not made fresh. I would not recommend.

My fiance and I love Oki Japan and come by whenever we have enough money to swing it. The beef udon, gyoza, and shrimp tempura are our favorites.

Not a fan, I tried the shrimp tempura bento with fried rice... Flavor it's all wrong. The fried rice looks and taste like Mexican red rice, the shrimp were small and over cooked, crunchy and burnt, nothing Japanese nor Asian flavor about this meal. For that price and flavor it's not worth it. I will not be back, ever.

This is a long overdue review...I forgot to do it when I was there a month ago, lol. It was not a planned trip, never been to this mall before, but had to pick up something from a store there, so we stopped in their food court for lunch. Odd little mall, felt like it was trapped in time, in the 80's or 90's! The food court wasn't like other food courts either. Everything was like an individual store/restaurant/fast food joint. Walked in to this and decided on a couple bento plates, Teriyaki chicken and shrimp tempura. I didn't have high expectations since it was the mall. It actually surprised us...wasn't bad at all! I actually thought food tasted better than Panda Express!! Ok, the vegetables were a little bland. But the shrimp tempura was very crispy and not overly greasy. The California roll was actually fairly fresh, and Egg rolls were light and crispy as well. I didn't care for the packaged sauces though... For a mall joint, it wasn't too bad. Staff were somewhat friendly and helpful to customers, and it was kept pretty clean. Don't expect high end quality, but for a quick lunch, the portions were generous and tasted decent!
