Okazaki is a counter-only sushi restaurant in Dōjima, Kita Ward, Osaka, seating eight guests around a single counter. Chef Okazaki, trained in Japan, serves a 10-course Edomae omakase with an optional sake pairing. The restaurant is Michelin listed and offers both lunch and dinner service, with seatings running about 90 minutes.
The dining room keeps things simple: no private room, smart casual dress, and an English menu for non-Japanese speakers. Lunch omakase runs Monday through Friday from 11:30 to 13:30, while dinner service is available six days a week, with a shorter Saturday sitting from 17:30 to 21:00. The restaurant is closed Sundays.
Pricing sits at ¥22,000 per person for the 10-course menu, placing it in the upscale tier locally. Reservations are made directly through the restaurant's own website, and booking is considered moderately difficult — plan to reserve about a month ahead of your intended date. Cash is not required; card payment is accepted.
Okazaki's location in Kita-Shinchi, one of Osaka's established dining districts, makes it a reasonable stop for those exploring the area's sushi counters. The eight-seat format keeps the room intimate, and the English-friendly menu removes some of the guesswork for visitors unfamiliar with Japanese sushi terminology.
