Ajiya Okonomiyaki Restaurant

We arrived 5 minutes before the restaurant opened at noon last Tuesday and were the first to be seated. The restaurant does not take reservations. There are 3 booth seats for groups of 3-4 customers, and the rest is seating around the counter. I personally prefer to sit at the counter to observe how the Okonomiyaki are freshly made. Riza was the chef on Tuesday. She was very friendly and made sure that our orders of both Okonomiyaki (tako, crabmeat and shiitake mushroom; and cheese, tobiko and shiitake mushroom) reflected our dietary requirements. The okonomiyaki were filled with generous amounts of cabbage and red ginger. The toppings were less generous but at S$19 and S$19.50 they were as expected. The okonomiyaki was crispy and remained hot on the counter. The okonomiyaki sauce and the mayonnaise were tasty and complemented the cabbage fillings. The Yuzu fizz was refreshing. The restaurant fills up quickly and a little patience is required as the freshly made okonomiyaki can't be rushed. The staff were all very friendly and helpful despite the crowds.

Absolutely delicious! Ajiya Okonomiyaki Restaurant serves the best okonomiyaki in Singapore in my opinion. The okonomiyaki is freshly prepared, flavourful and cooked perfectly, with generous portions and great ingredients. Cozy atmosphere and friendly service too. Definitely a place we will keep coming back to. Highly recommended!

Interactive dining experience where you get to cook your own okonomiyaki right at the table. The food tasted good overall and it was quite fun playing around with the cooking process, especially if you’re dining with friends or family. $19++ The garlic fried rice $9++was loosely cooked and tasted decent, though it felt slightly underwhelming as it did not seem freshly prepared on the spot. It appeared to be pre-cooked beforehand and only reheated through stir-frying before serving. Beef tongue $15.9++ was tender, but the sesame sauce did not really complement the dish well and slightly overpowered the natural flavour of the meat. Service manpower was surprisingly huge for such a small shop, with around 10 staff members around during the visit, so service was generally prompt and attentive. Take note that they only seat customers when the full party has arrived, so do plan your timing properly if meeting in groups. Parking may also be slightly inconvenient as there are only a few lots available outside the restaurant.

relatively well priced , food was good

Arrived when it was not peak there were many seats, however we waited a very long time for our mains. They may have forgotten our order as another table got their order before us when they arrived after us. All our sides were gone before the mains came. Service staff were on the ball to refill tea and serve drinks but the kitchen was really slow. It became slower as the crowd started to build. There is now also a minimum charge which can be easily reached because food prices have gone up across the board. Food portions are not large.

Came on Sunday 12pm, waited for the restaurant to open. Not very easily accessible, have to walk from the nearest bus stop Service was okay, managed to sit at the front table, with the food cooked infront of us. Okonomiyaki size is about 6 inch, loaded with cabbage ($18 each) Can choose 3 toppings of choice including seafood, poultry and vegetables I feel that the okonomiyaki is not cooked till crispy type, they set a timer for each side, serve right on the dot. Inside was slightly mushy(?) may get abit jelak if u are eating the whole by yourself. Can add unlimited bonito flakes, so feel free to request! The fried rice was very oily…. The bottom of the bowl was coated with oil. It was full of wokhei though but really too oily. The torched scallops were delicious, but I would say for this four piece, it’s kind of not worth it. Hot sake was smooth and nice Would I come again? Maybe not… it was a good experience tho

Ajiya stands out among Singapore’s handful of okonomiyaki restaurants. The scallop mentaiko impresses with fragrant sauce and fresh seafood. Their signature Ajiya combo—which we opted for a selection of octopus, bacon, and onion topped with mayo and chili flakes and Otafuku sauce—delivers soft, fluffy, flavorful perfection served piping hot straight from the grill. Owner Ivy’s warm hospitality elevated our experience as she enthusiastically shared details about their dishes, as it was our first visit. For an authentic okonomiyaki experience with exceptional service, Ajiya is a must-visit destination.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Great ambient, great food. For a person who loves okonomiyaki this is a perfect place to have authentic okonomiyaki.
