Oishi Hibachi Steakhouse

This place is fantastic!!! I try to go back as often as I can! The food. The atmosphere. The chefs. It's a good time. So friendly. And the jokes. I don't like that they do the bit of throwing a small bit of broccoli for someone to catch in their mouth. Wish they still did it with egg. But still one of my favorite places to eat! And the food is fantastic. Haven't had a single bad experience!!!! One of my favorite restaurants in champaign!

I am shocked this place has such great reviews after dining in tonight. My husband and I ordered three sushi rolls, salmon tartare, and a mojito. Mojito was okay at best, the salmon tartare had barely any fish and was mostly avocado, and the rolls were awful. The size of each piece was giant and difficult to eat. The rice was wildly overcooked and mushy, unseasoned. The fish was old and had no flavor. All three rolls had no flavor aside from sauces they were drenched in. The lobster roll was fried and at this point I have to believe it’s to hide the poor quality of the lobster. Service was excellent, but we won’t be back.

The hibachi lunch special is for the people, soup, salad, and a slightly smaller portion size of rice, vegetables and your choice of protein for less than 20 bucks and you can have a show or not.
I've been coming here for years and I have never had a bad meal, service or time. Highly recommend.
Dinner prices for hibachi are more, but you get more food and a show. (FYI)

I wanted to avoid putting this review but I think people should know that this place has roaches I went there with my boyfriend and as we were eating at a booth a roach crawled on the side of the booth next to me I didn’t see it at first but my boyfriend did and I was so disgusted we left, and we told the employees they saw it and said nothing we just left at that point . Be aware !

I HONESTLY THINK ITS A LITTLE PROBLEMATIC TO MAKE PEOPLE WAIT FOR THEIR FULL PARTY TO BE THERE TO BE SEATED (IN TERMS OF BEING SAT IN GENERAL) BUT OUTSIDE OF THAT I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE WAY THEY INTERACT WITH THE CUSTOMERS AS THEY MAKE THE HIBACHI STUFF...

My wife and I always enjoy our visits to Oishi. We always sit on the grill side. The staff is always polite, and is happy to accommodate any meal requests made. The grill show is enjoyable, although it is pretty standard Hibachi type fare.

Parking: Large parking lot next to budding. Easy access to/from Prospect via stoplight nearby.

We went there on Saturday. It was mother daughter outing. Food was good but they put to much ginger salad dressing on both of our salads. It was good dressing but lettuce was swimming in it.
Yes, I would go again, the sushi was good. Service was good.

I’ve been coming here for years, that being said during my last visit to this place I thought I ordered sushi according to the menu. What I got was tempura cooked fish surrounded by ice cold rice. I took two bites paid and got the hell out I will not be returning.
