Otaki Japanese Steakhouse Jacksonville

Food and service was fair, nothing exciting. Believe Wasabi gives more for your money and food is better.

Love this restaurant; I've been going for years ♥

Good food and people

Recommended dishes: Hibachi Vegetables, Steak

This is one of our favorite restaurants for celebrating birthdays, Our 7-year old grandson asked to have his birthday there, again. And it was excellent. The service was top-notch, the atmosphere was pleasant, and our chef put on a great show. The food was perfect. I highly recommend the scallops, and fried rice. We'll be returning for upcoming birthdays.

Decided to try a different place. Normally go to Wasabi but quality has gone down. Only thing I actually liked was dynamite roll and veggies. Had shrimp and scallops. Husband had filet. Will never go back. Total disappointment in taste of food. Would go back to wasabi before ever going here. Plus totally overpriced. $34 for 5 small overcooked shrimp and five scallops. Served noodles which I don’t want noodles with my dinner. Do not recommend. Very small portions of veggies and fried rice was totally ruined with some kind of very sweet sauce.

Hibachi shrimp and chicken were very good. It was entertaining having the chef cook in front of us.

We go here often (first time on a holiday), and it was good until it wasn't. We (family of 4)were seated at a hibachi table. We were made to wait until someone could fill up the other side of the table this was about 45 minutes. It was no big deal because we ordered appetizers. Our cook came and cooked our food, and then not even a minute after he walked away with his cart the cleanup crew came with To go boxes. Imagine just getting ready to finally enjoy your food (because you wait for all your food to cook during the performance) and some comes shoving a Styrofoam takeout box in your face at a full table. There is no where to put your takeout box. It forces you to pack your food up and rush you out of the establishment. In addition to that their cleanup team actively cleans with that dirty towel right by your food as your packing it up. It will be a long time before I ever return there if ever. It's very unsatisfying and made us feel like we were being rushed out. It made me lose my entire appetite to have clean up crew and the waitress push us out. We didn't even get a chance to enjoy our food. I spent over $250 for our family to eat and we had to do it at home. Definitely not an experience worth paying for. If you plan to sit with you family on father's day, this is not the place to go. The crazy part is, it wasn't busy at all. Very disappointing experience.

This was definitely the best food we’ve ever had at a Japanese Steakhouse! The service was great as well!

Great place for Hibachi eating. They also have seating not at the hibachi tables. The service is always great. The chefs are always friendly and create a great atmosphere. Nice portion size...we always go home with food. I would suggest making a reservation for the hibachi tables so you don't have to wait.

Very nasty for the price and it had a awful smell. We took the leftover over and warmed it up we couldn't eat it because the smell was so bad. Very very disappointing

Great place. Great service! Awesome food!!
