Obi Restaurant

4 Hein De Vries - 8 months ago

The smattering of Japanese paraphernalia doesn't necessarily scream "This is a Japanese restaurant!" But the authentic Japanese flavours certainly do.

(And, besides, nothing cures the lingering remnants of last night's hangover quite as effectively as a large bowl of quality Ramen.)

The sushi portions leaving the kitchen were lush, and we will certainly make our way to Obi to sample the other offerings.

Maybe it's because we arrived at 8:45. Near the closing time (in fact, our friends have ordered us in advance) the waiter's attitude is very poor and there is no service at all. We have ramen. The noodles are not elastic and the soup is salty. It can be said that it is not worth the price at all. The conclusion is that the cost is expensive, the service attitude is poor, and the decoration is average!

Obi is my favourite Japanese restaurant in Cape Town. There are other great sushi places in CT , but Obi has a freshness difficult to find anywhere else. The location is also the closest to a restaurant in Tokyo, very minimal, just great food.

The environment is on standard, nice to experience authentic Japanese food.

Taste of Sushi rice is a bit too lite, hardly to taste any “vinegar” flavour.(personal viewpoint)
Ingredients is fresh.

Hope to see more deliciousness in the future.

Very vibey. A bit noisy when full. The owner is super friendly. Food was unbelievably fast - not sure how they do it! Fish quality is amazing as is the finished sushi product. Thoroughly enjoyed. Waitress wasn't particularly knowledgeable or very efficient and left us half way through and we ended up with another lady who seemed to take us over (without any communication. Not sure if this is normal but it was a bit weird).
I really enjoyed the coconut Panna cotta with match green tea ice cream. So light, refreshing and strangely tasty!

Definitely worth a visit! Japanese vibes. Great service from staff. Come for the pork ramen or fresh sushi.

Good Japanese restaurant with a large selection of Sushi dishes, especially Inside Out Rolls. Prices are reasonable. The restaurant is minimalistic and very clean. Staff are friendly and efficient.
