Yaki Yaki Miwa: Reviews & Ratings
The staff here were very hospitable and the server was extra helpful as it was our first time there. The food came out quickly and we enjoyed the experience of using the hot plate to warm the food. The quality of the food was good. This seems like a great place to hangout with friends, grab a drink, and listen to some good music. I would come again if I lived in town.
Great dinner tonight. We couldn't find Okonomiyaki in Tokyo at lunch time so we had to come home and find some authentic Osaka Okonomiyaki. Awesome food and unbelievable service! We didn't eat all of this but we had front row seats to chef's preparations so I got a good variety of pictures. Everything looks so delicious! #yakiyakimiwa #okonomiyaki
Ate a late night dinner after a basketball game. Excellent food. Order the skirt steak and it was excellently seasoned. Also ate the okonomiyaki, dashimaki tamago, garlic clam, and all excellent.
Tonight was our first time trying this restaurant off of King St. We've passed by this restaurant many times but never knew what their menu consisted of until just recently when I was craving Okonomiyaki. There aren't too many places that make this locally, and our go-to place in Waikiki closed down. So off to Yelp we went in search or suggestions. That's when Yaki Yaki Miwa popped up. Tonight's review is on service. As we walked in, the hostess asked if we had reservations. We replied that we did not. Mind you, two booths were occupied but the counter chairs and two additional long tables were empty. She replied that she had prior reservations for the empty chairs, but the main chef motioned her to the side. He informed her it would be ok for us to sit at the counter, nearest the teppanyaki cooktop. She then stated we could sit here so long as we would be finished by 6:45pm. It was a little before 5:30 so we said sure, we could make that deadline. And away we went to sampling their food. I would like to say thank you to the head chef that made an accommodation for us this evening. Another couple came in around 6:30 and was turned away and they had to make reservations....for next week. This place is extremely popular. So tip of the day, make reservations ahead of time so you won't be disappointed. BTW, the Okonomiyaki was delicious and so was the Kim Chee. We also had the Mixed Fried Noodles, but sadly I forgot to take a pic of it.
