You must try this low-key Japanese restaurant at SM Mega. The food is very delicious and super worth it.
🥰🥰
Around 7 tables open for dine in this GCQ.
Limited menu. Mostly no fish available, which was kind of disappointing since those were my favorites. Been craving that'a why haha.
Unagi maki is okay. Flavors are good, but I can imagine some people not enjoying it given its' price point.
Best sushi/maki in Manila is OOMA's !!
Once a month, I dine in their Megamall branch with family or friends and order Crowd Favorites. My personal faves are ebi tempura maki and truffled steak aburi maki. The bara chirashi don bowl is a bit pricey but worth it considering the flavor and generous serving 🖤
The best sushi in the metro!!!
Took some time for us to be seated despite them having a lot of room and seats to offer, they could have been understaffed but I wouldnt t be certain.

One of my go-to Japanese restos! I’m always craving for their food!
I highly recommend the ff.: Tori Udon, Hanger Steak, Salmon Skin Aburi Maki, Ebi Tempura (I love their Alige sauce!)
They have unlimited Japanese rice (though they won’t tell you this) and tea (smells and tastes at first like coffee)
This is my second time here in Ooma and as usual, it didn't disappoint! Aside from the exceptional food, serving was fast, servers are soo nice, place was clean and neat. Would always go back here for the experience!
Thank you Mariz for assisting us! :)
Great service from Baron! Fantastic food as always!
Esa took good care of our group. Sulit din kasi busog at masarap.
Service is awesome (shout out to our amazing server, Marlon) and they delivered the food immediately. Food was DELICIOUS of course!!! Definitely gonna come back 💖💖
food and service was excellent!
Marjon took good care of us 👌
Ebi tempura was worth the price! Marjon was a great server. He checked on us often and made sure we were satisfied with our dine-in.
As always! Food is awesome and service is excellent! Kudos to the staff and sir Gilbert of ooma megamall! Thanks Gilbert!
First time trying Ooma after always seeing it in its Greenhills branch. I got a bit overwhelmed with their menu because there’s a lot to look at. But nevertheless, really nice design and layout.
I initially just wanted to try their new curry bowls because I’m a huge fan of curry. So i ordered their Pork Katsu Curry and California Taco Maki on the side. The curry was so good! When they asked me for my feedback, they offered if I wanted more curry (for free!). I also requested for a fork since I wasn’t too used to just using a spoon with their dishes (which seems to be a staple setup for them). As for the taco maki, they adviced me to brush soy sauce on the maki, and eat it by hand. Ooma doesn’t seem to use Japanese short grain rice (sticky rice) but I let it pass since their food was good.
Service was on time. Tables have hangers to place your bags. Staff is warm and friendly. And very attentive when I needed water. Also offered hot tea. Thanks for my attentive server, Anderson, for making my first dine-in experience in Ooma eventful.
I was pretty hyped about getting into a Japanese restaurant I have never tried before. I ordered a hanger steak, chirasi don, sushi set, gyudon, katsudon and oyakudon. If it’s your first visit, I recommend the sushi set. From the sushi set, I like the aburi maki the best because of its unique texture. Nonetheless, all of the sushi in the set was so good that it melts in your mouth. Don’t forget to add wasabi for additional spike. 10/10
I give the hanger steak a 8/10. The mushroom tastes so good with the beef. I prefer that the beef to be more tender. I thought they’d cook it medium rare as shown in the menu but they served a well done steak.
For the charasidon, it feels like I’m buying a big sushi in a round big bowl. It’s not for individual meal because the taste doesn’t really vary as you eat it, hence making you want to stop eating it. I couldn’t taste the difference of the salmon from tuna, squid and other seafood inside the bowl. Maybe they should place slightly bigger slices and fresher set of ingredients. It didn’t go with a sauce and still had to ask for one. I would rate that experience as 7/10. The dish was not worth the money.
For the gyudon, I would give it a 7/10. At first I really liked everything until I got the same flavor over and over again which was a sweet taste. I didn’t like that reoccurring taste. Maybe it’s just my preference. It could’ve been more salty.
For the other meals, I really couldn’t judge myself since I wasn’t able to taste them. But my companion did not finish their bowl and it’s telling of how good the food is.
Overall, I would still go back to this place and buy the sushi set and other dishes that are more worth it. But it definitely wouldn’t be my go to! And I hope they could do something about my criticisms. More power Ooma!

Overall, the food we ordered are very good and tasty. Cant complain. The only thing is the Teriyaki Chicken, though perfect in taste the quality of the chicken meat isnt very satisfying, because its like the size of a bacon strip and 80% of it is breading, i hope they will improve the meat serving especially it really taste good already.
Sidney, our server, was over the top excellent in service. Good job in handling your servers, Ooma!👍
Ooma is always a favorite go-to when I’m craving for Japanese food! The unique makis and the well-executed familiar Japanese dishes make this place one of the best Japanese restaurants out there. Aside from that, service is also good and they are very attentive.
We ordered the ebi tempura maki, hanger steak, and tempura. The maki was our absolute favorite! The aligue mayo was so rich and the ebi was cooked just right. We’d come back for that any day.
The hanger steak was really good too! It was cooked to our liking and the mash was really flavorful. The flavors of the steak, mash, and mushrooms all blended well together. If there’s one thing to comment about, it would be the serving of the steak. The amount of mushrooms was waaay more than the amount of steak we got.
I’m very picky with my tempura and I tend to get ‘umay’ after a few bites or pieces. But this tempura made me want to eat the whole thing! It had a light, crispy batter and the shrimp was so big. The sauces on the side were really good too.
Overall, I’d always go to Ooma whenever I’m craving for my Japanese fix because of how reliable and good their dishes are. Definitely going to try more of their menu!
Esa and everyone else gave us a Hotel grade kind of service; eating bara chirashi is like putting the whole country of Japan together with their culture and history inside your mouth. 😍👍🏼
MJ was really accommodating and nice! We loved the food and the staff. Authentic Japanese food!!

Service was good. Will definitely come back!
We ordered the Kani Salad, Uni Udon & Crowd Favorite Mixer. Good food!
Thanks to our server, Anderson for being attentive to our needs.
Food was so good but the service was exceptional. Thank you Anderson and Rochelle!
Great service by Anderson and Yanna!
Great food and smiling, friendly staff is always a good mix. Thank you for the experience! Will definitely come back.
Other than the great food, we loved the service. Look for Mac when you visit 👍
food as good as usual, with great staff especially Sidney, very attentive and "maasikaso".
but if I were to critique, I think 20-25 minutes is too long a wait for food considering that other branches serve the same order in sometimes less than 10 minutes.
but overall, food was still great ad usual and would visit again. hopefully with faster cook time.
Good food. Shorter lines now. New menu. The unagi and ebi tempura are our favorites. Kid friendly place. Great service Sidney. Coming back again.
Wonderful experience here at Ooma Megamall! Thank you to Anderson, Mac and Gilbert for making our first dining experience awesome!
Ordered Salmon Skin Maki, Gyudon, and Cheese Katsu Curry Don. 5/5!
Great food and ambiance and chez is very friendly and accomodating. Thumbs up for her 🤙🏻
We will definitely come back for another round! Highly recommended 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
My girlfriend likes to rate all the ebi tempuras she's tried across the metro and instantly decided that this was the best ever haha. Amazing food, surprsingly generous servings, and great service. Also, thank you Anderson for being on top of things haha.
Marjon was very attentive and helpful, and the food was great! Will definitely be back!
Yummy food and good service!
Our server, Anderson, was accommodating and cheerful. But I’m sad about the duck and foie aburi maki being phased out :( it was the best thing on the menu, imo. Still love the place tho!
Didn't expect that the hospitality of the retaurant would be that great. Very accommodating servers and Supervisor Mariz. The foods are excellent.

Great food and service as always!
The food and service was great thanks to esa.
Excellent food and service! The gyudon is super good, as well as the hanger steak. Would definitely go back! Service is great as well & the people are so nice!
What I really love about Ooma, kaya binabalik balikan ko talaga, is yung edi tempura and hanger steak nila. Plus very accommodating yung crew nila lalo na si Chez.
We loved the new curry and the waiter (Gene) he’s very accommodating. Our overall experience was very nice. We’d definitely go back
Esa, our server is so accommodating. A big five for her amazing service. Her love and passion for work exude in her service to ours. Truly, a phenomenal service to look forward again in our next visit. Good job for having Esa as part of your team.
Our server Esa was very attentive and friendly. The service was good. The staff were very patient with us. Overall, a great dining experience
Thanks a lot to Anderson who assist and serve our food!
Try their new chicken karaage. I also like the pork katsudon, the sweet and savory sauce is fantastic.
Awesome food and service, john is helpful and friendly. I will recommend this restaurant to my friends.
My bestfriend and I ate here for dinner after attending to a personal matter. The food was great. I've been here a few times and have been happy with the experience each time. Today, my bestfriend and I enjoyed both the crowd favorites plate of maki and a dish that is along the lines of cheese katsu curry don. We weren't able to take a photo of the crowd favorites because we started eating immediately. Our favorites from that platter are the Truffled Steak Aburi and the Salmon Skin Aburi Maki
The service was also wonderful. We were attended to promptly and our drinks were always refilled. Staff also checked up on us once in a while to see if we were enjoying our food. The bill arrived after a long wait, but otherwise it was a pleasant experience.
Went there at about 2pm for our late lunch. Good time to avoid the crowd. Place is clean. And the waiter that accomodated us smiled a lot. I like that feeling that they are happy with their work. Its a big plus. Food is great. Everything we ordered is delicious. But i loved the most is the Uni Udon. I have a weakness for good noodles. Hehehe. Highly recommended.

The food was great and unique. One of the lead staff members Mac constantly checked on us in case we needed anything. Superb customer service!
LOVE THEIR NEWEST ADDITION TO THEIR DESSERT MENU!!! MOCHI MATCHA CHEESECAKE!!!!! 😭 Perfect combo!! ❤️❤️
Maybe just add a little more sauce as well as spiciness on the dish. The waiters are very courteous and are always willing to serve us with water or hot tea.
Loved the food, and they have a generous serving! Thanks to kuya Anderson and ate Yana for their outstanding service. :-)
I want to commend Baron and Mac for giving us the excellent dining experience. Baron is so nice, Mac is always smiling. The staffs exceeded our expectation.
