Okaju Japanese Grill

Okuju Restaurant was recommended by the Sales Manager at JW Marriott Hotel Kuala Lumpur for our APAC leadership dinner, and it turned out to be an excellent choice. I had the pleasure of working closely with Restaurant Manager Reyvi, who was incredibly patient, attentive, and accommodating throughout the planning process. Reyvi worked closely with the chef to help customize our dinner menu for one of our delegates who required a vegetarian and gluten-free meal, ensuring everyone’s dietary needs were thoughtfully considered. Her professionalism, responsiveness, and attention to detail made the planning process seamless and stress-free. The food was delicious, the service was impeccable, and all of our leaders thoroughly enjoyed the dining experience. What made the evening even more special was the thoughtful surprise from Reyvi and her team, they prepared a personalized welcome slide to welcome our APAC leadership team in their private room which made us feel truly welcomed and valued. A heartfelt thank you to Reyvi, the chef, and the entire Okuju team for your exceptional hospitality and for going the extra mile to make our leadership dinner such a memorable experience. I highly recommend Okuju to anyone looking for outstanding cuisine, impeccable service, and a team that genuinely cares about creating a wonderful dining experience.

Fukamushi Green Tea (rm15). Garicilin Cocktail (rm58); let it sit for abit before drinking, let the ice melt, so it does not taste too strong. Surume Ika Squid with Garlic Butter Tosazu (rm52); sauce leaned more towarda tangy than garlic buttery. squid was pretty smol and personally i would have preferred the skin to be removed for cleaner texture. Air Dried Whole Seabass with Chili Butter (rm86); seabass is fresh, sauce didnt quite click with me at first, but grew on me slightly after a few more tries. I would prefer it to be slightly spicier. Unagi Sushi (rm30); really good. Shake Sushi (rm25); asked for it to be fully cook but came still kinda rawish. I prefer sitting at the bar, it has more space and setting is nicer. Service is good.

Had a wonderful dining experience at Okaju. The ambience is elegant, comfortable, and creates a great setting for a relaxing meal. What stood out the most was the attentive and professional service from the staff, who made us feel welcomed and well taken care of throughout the evening. Their attention to detail really enhanced the overall experience. Combined with the lovely atmosphere, it made for a truly enjoyable visit. Looking forward to coming back again!

We visited to celebrate my partner’s birthday and were warmly welcomed by a team that was consistently polite and attentive. Each dish was presented with care, accompanied by clear and thoughtful explanations. The atmosphere was calm and inviting, making the entire experience feel relaxed and special. The food was excellent—we especially loved the sake soufflé. Considering both the quality and the aesthetic, the pricing felt very reasonable. A special mention goes to Keyvi, whose warm smile and genuinely friendly manner elevated the experience with truly exceptional service. As a lovely touch, they also offered us a complimentary Polaroid photo as a keepsake of the occasion.

Had a wonderful experience here! I planned to celebrate my loved one’s birthday, and it turned out to be a great choice. The staff, especially Serena, was very sweet and attentive — she even arranged a little surprise for us without me asking, which made the night extra special. The food was amazing, the ambience was great, and the service was excellent. The staff also helped us take a Polaroid photo and gave it to us as a souvenir. Such a thoughtful touch. Highly recommended!
