Okinii, Japanese restaurant in Düsseldorf, Germany.
Okinii is a Japanese restaurant in Düsseldorf where guests order multiple dishes from a broad menu during a set dining period. The selection covers sushi, sashimi, warm dishes, and desserts, giving a wide range of Japanese cooking styles at one table.
Okinii opened in Germany as one of the first places to bring a timed Japanese ordering format to the country. The concept then spread to other German cities, making this style of Japanese dining more familiar to a wider audience.
The menu draws from everyday Japanese cooking traditions, with dishes like sushi, gyoza, and ramen that people in Japan eat regularly. Ordering several small dishes to share at the table follows a habit common across many parts of Japan.
The restaurant works with fixed time slots during which you place your orders, so arriving on time at the start of your slot gives you the most flexibility. Going with a group makes it easier to try more dishes and share across the table.
Unlike typical all-you-can-eat places, Okinii sets a cap on the number of dishes each guest can order during a visit. This limit is there to keep preparation quality consistent and to reduce food waste across the table.
