Brixton Village Market is home to an authentic and mouthwatering Osaka-style okonomiyaki restaurant with a fantastic atmosphere. I highly recommend it!

The food was good but also we don’t know what Japanese food is meant to taste like tbh ( i would’ve added chili but ig that might be controversial ahaha). The waitress was sweet! And we were very warm so can’t complain! 💪

Decent okonomiyaki place, quick service sat on some small tables in the indoor market. The okonomiyaki wasn't the best I've ever had but was decent and flavourful

Curry udon tasted like a stock cube, service was slow, the outdoor seating freezing & we were told we couldn't sit inside despite empty seating. Staff kept trying to clear our one glass of wine when it still had wine in it, by the time I left my wine had had two different sets of fingers in it trying to take the glass. Very underwhelming!

The beef and kimchi teppanyaki was ok but basically a plate of beansprouts. The okonomiyaki was good, the prawn onigiri was quite funny cause it had a prawn on top and just rice inside. Overpriced for the quality of food served.

Good food and reasonable price. The staff are friendly and courteous, but the service was incredibly slow this evening. We waited for a long time for the order to be taken and about 30 minutes for drinks to be delivered. Food was also slow. It was quite busy, but not enough that the four people serving were that busy? We waited 20 minutes for the bull too!

There was a short line when I got there but they were clearing tables fairly quickly. The okonomiyaki are authentic, just like the ones I had in Japan. Their menu looks really good and has a wide variety. I was tempted to order five things. The prices are reasonable. 11 pounds for an okonomiyaki. The staff was really friendly as well.

The area near the entrance to Brixton Village is a bit suspicious, but once you step into the Village, you'll find yourself in a lively multinational world✨You can enjoy the flavors of various countries at affordable prices. I received ``fried favorite meat and kimchi'' and raw 🍺. I was able to enjoy the taste of Japan for the first time in a while. Is it the manager of Okan? The ``mom'' who seemed to be doing her best was giving encouragement to the young waiters. Highly recommended. I will drop by again.

The food was average, we had okonomiyaki and a noodle dish as our mains. The bill came to £60 for 2 mains, 2 non alcoholic drinks and 1 starter which seemed overpriced for what we got and the dingy look of the seating as well as the sticky and overused menus. However the service cannot be faulted and was brilliant.

Staff were lovely but I am a vegetarian of many years and ordered a vegetarian okonomiyaki (indicated both on menu and on my bill at vegetarian) and it was tasty but halfway through eating I noticed a very fishy taste. It had been served with a fish topping. I pointed this out to the waiter who apologised. I was still charged the full amount plus service charge which I thought was quite unfair as I left with a bad taste and feeling a bit queasy

Really wanted to like this place. Was left a long time without service trying to flag down servers attention. 70+ mins to get just our mains so we asked for the bill at the same time as desert which was the smallest slice of cheesecake for 6 felt a bit like robbery. The mains were nice though very sweet. I went for the okonomiyaki pork noodle and the pork was some bacon on the bottom, which also felt like a trick. If it’s bacon..maybe just write bacon. Atmosphere was nice and the servers and manager were very sweet and understanding when we relayed our experience though didn’t go so far as to offer any alleviances.

The food was excellent, the service quick, and they were very responsive to food allergies. Highly recommended and we will definitely come back. A meal for three was around 40 pounds, extremely good value. Bathrooms were very clean as well for those who value such things.
