I'm tasked with building a site for a japanese steakhouse - been looking everywhere trying to find matches that are not commercial. Even the one's that are commercial come close, but not exact. Anyone recognize this font?

Freak  Suggested by Lancon 

Thanks for the quick reply. Much appreciated - I think I also found a pretty darn close match here: Bart Bold font

You´re most welcome.
I think the font you told us is a rip-off of Freak

As Bart is a Bay Animation (RIP, now Arts&Letters) font it is a rip-off. By definition. But not of the Freak, as Freak is 2006 and Bart is 1994, but of Bamboo - Image Club Graphics 1992.

Thanks Kat
