About
Tucked inside the five-star Hotel Okura in Amsterdam-Zuid, Sazanka ranks among the most celebrated teppanyaki restaurants in the Netherlands. The drama of skilled tableside cooking on a searing iron griddle, paired with a razor-sharp dining room team, turns every sitting into a memorable occasion.
Chef Kazuki Onodera leads the kitchen with a focus on precision and technique that has earned Sazanka a Gault&Millau score of 14.5/20. More than 420 Google reviewers back that verdict with a near-perfect 4.8 rating, and the restaurant also features in the Lekker Top 500 for 2026.
Maître Thuy Vo and head sommelier Yathin Giridharan ensure that the service matches the spectacle at the grill — knowledgeable, attentive, and seamlessly composed. The restaurant is open Tuesday through Saturday, evenings only, and reservations are strongly recommended.
