Do you take reservations?

Is there parking, and is it easy?
Parking and seating are noticeably easier here than at our sister restaurant, Wa Dining Okan, which is why many regulars choose this location near Convoy.
What is kamameshi, and where can I get it in San Diego?
Kamameshi is a Japanese rice dish cooked and served in a traditional pot with toppings. It is one of our signature specialties, prepared in about 20 minutes and priced around $15.
What is the difference between an izakaya and a sushi restaurant?
An izakaya is a casual Japanese spot built around shared small plates and drinks, while a sushi restaurant focuses mainly on sushi. Okan Diner offers both styles, with sushi, ramen, udon, and yakitori on one menu.
Can I get takeout or delivery?
