Okazu Sushi Bar

Tucked just moments from the buzz of Nobby’s Beach, Okazu in Mermaid Waters is quietly carving out a name as a go-to for authentic Japanese comfort food done right. This isn’t just another takeaway spot, it’s a passion project grounded in genuine hospitality, where every dish feels like it’s been made with purpose. The team here leans into tradition while keeping things approachable, creating a space that’s as easy for a quick lunch run as it is for a relaxed, casual dine-in moment.

At its core, Okazu is all about Japanese soul food, the kind that satisfies without overcomplicating things. The menu is stacked with crowd favourites, from perfectly balanced donburi bowls to flavour-packed okonomiyaki and fresh, generously filled sushi rolls. It’s the kind of place where you can grab something wholesome on the go or settle in and savour every bite, knowing you’re getting a taste that stays true to its roots.

Whether you’re a local looking for your new regular spot or just chasing something fresh and flavourful near the coast, Okazu delivers that sweet spot between convenience and authenticity. It’s warm, it’s welcoming, and it’s proof that great Japanese food doesn’t need to shout to stand out, it just needs to be done well.
