Okonomiyaki: Whatever you want, grilled. The 'whatever ' are things you 'll like.

I had accidentally stumbled upon this place while walking to a different restaurant and to be honest I am glad I walked in. It is definitely a place to check out! I love Japanese food, and the Okonomiyaki (Japanese pancake) here is so delicious. Every bite was full of flavor. I'm also obsessed with their spicy miso it is so full of umami. The ambience inside is great, along with their customer service. Definitely try out their Ube Lemonade OH! and don't forget dessert. You cannot miss out … – show

Delicious yakisoba and okonomiyaki dishes! We also enjoyed a few of their highballs which were delicious. The food was well priced but the cocktails were a bit expensive. It was nice to be able to watch the kitchen staff cooking everyone's meals while we waited — the restaurant provides a very fun and interesting atmosphere.

If you want to experience great hospitality, food with incredible taste and presentation, please dine at Gaijin. We also met Chef Paul Virant which was a pleasure by itself. We feasted on Okonomiyaki with the dancing bonito as topping. It was wonderful. Next time, I look forward to the one with shrimp. The atmosphere was lively and the service was top notch. We will go back, no doubt.

I booked the chef table a month early but the female manager wouldn't allow us to sit because it's reserved for groups of four. Very rude and unprofessional. Other than that, the service was slow, and the food was so-so.
