“We went there for a birthday and ordered 2 combo platters (hot and raw). It was a lot of food, and was cut fresh so there was a little wait, but it was worth it. Fresh, melt in your mouth sushi. It was different types of salmon combination which was exactly what we were looking for. The wait staff was very nice.“
“The best Shabu in San Jose and located in the perfect part of San Jose in Japantown, we love coming here to eat Shabu, it is so delicious. I highly recommend it *****five stars the owner Richard treat’s us great with so much hospitality, we just feel so welcomed and will continue to frequent his establishment.“
“Got fried chicken gyoza, drunken noodle, teriyaki chicken rice bowl. Dumplings were decent, sauce nice and flavorful, and stuck well. Drunken noodles had no business having a double spicy next to it on the menu but were otherwise fine. Admittedly, I may have skimmed the menu and missed that all of the veg would be steamed on the rice bowl, but that made me wish for more flavor tbh. The ramen egg was decently cooked and well seasoned, but since it was not in hot broth, it was still fridge cold.Service was fine. Waters were kept full and food came out in a timely manner.Avoid if you have sensory issues, as their music was too loud and their forks and spoons were GIANT and weirdly balanced. At least they didn't have the big lights on.“
“the food is always amazing they'll cook just about whatever you ask for at Costco but you really get what you pay for here. I've taken a handful of people here who would probably say the same thing! not to mention the staff is super friendly and if they're not too busy they'll hold a conversation with you.“
“My husband and I go here often. Very affordable and everything is made fantastically. They're very accommodating as we have a small child, but they're always friendly and kind. Will definitely be back and we look forward to making this place a regular of ours.Update:It's been 8 years and this place still goes strong. They have been a regular favorite and even though we moved away, we still make the trip back just for Nobo's. They're worth it.Kid-friendliness: I've been taking my 8 year old to this place since before he was even 1. He's always been accommodated and treated well. He loves the tuna sushi roll and miso soup.“
“Pretty much the best around. Always a great time there. For as crazy busy as the place is, the service is SPOT ON. Super polite staff, place is clean, food is tremendous and it's a very social type atmosphere. I drive over 30 mins to go out to eat there. Worth every penny.“
“Sushi was delicious, reasonably priced, and had a wonderful texture. I was very satisfied with all the house rolls that I tasted, and I could have easily had an entree-sized portion of duck horishi buns appetizer. Was my first experience and this place is very deserving of its good reviews.“
“This is easily the best poke place I've ever been to. The consistent quality of all of the ingredients is extremely impressive. At first I thought to was a fluke "they must have just got some fresh salmon, there's no way it can be this good every time". Somehow it's really that good every time. Even the cilantro is fantastic the avocado, the sushi rice. I wish I lived closer I would probably be here every other week.“
“The food was very profound, the service and staff were very attentative to everyone and there was a nice crowd of people there enjoying their time.Parking: There is an abundant amount of parking spaces all around the establishment, it would be hard to not find parking!Kid-friendliness: There’s no hazards to worry about as a child and as an adult!Wheelchair accessibility: There’s a wheelchair ramp, and no interiors stairs except for the function room.“
“This place has good food! You can get a combination plate and choose your own appetizers. There was good ambience in there. I ordered for pick up but I saw some patrons dining in. Looks like a pretty chill place. Quiet vibes! Pleasant atmosphere! Fast and friendly service!“
“I've been hearing about this place for years but I've never been.If you're not an Asian food fanatic like I am, it's honestly probably a pretty good place to go. The food isn't too weird and the spice is pretty moderate.Personally, I tried the sushi and a cooked dish and neither will happen again.The server did lots of Japanese-ish things that didn't really make sense but I've been there. It might be fun if you're not super into it.“
“Went here 2/29 for the first time, Wendy and Kait were absolutely amazing, attentive, kind and quick! The food was hot, fresh and had amazing presentation! Drinks were fantastic and the pricing is beyond reasonable! We will be back ASAP! HIGHLY RECOMMEND both their Chinese food and Japanese food, sushi, egg rolls and lo mein were incredible! Back here now on 3/6 for more sushi, drinks and food! The staff is amazing! The food is amazing and we are definitely going to be regular customers! Congratulations on the new staple of the town! This place is awesome and right on the water!!!“
“I go here regularly and the food, drink, and service are consistently very good. The hibachi selections are excellent - you can order them whether you sit at a hibachi cooktop or a regular table. The drinks are delicious and reasonably priced. They have a fair amount of turnover with their servers, but they all seem to do a great job.“
“This place has Fun Décor right when you walk in! There isn't a ton of seats, so it may not be the spot to go on a Friday or Saturday night. We only went for hot saki and sushi. And I have to say their bruins roll might be my new favorite. The server was super nice and helpful with helping me choose a few extra things. The prices are good for the quality you get, maybe even cheaper than most places that your use to. I'll definitely be back to this little tucked away hidden gem.Parking: More than enough parking close to the door“
“My book club meets at Shanghai Osaka frequently for our discussion. There is a large function room in the back which accommodates our group which can sometimes be more than 25 people. We are separated from the other patrons so we do not disturb them. The service has always been spectacular considering the size of our group. I usually get some kind of Lo Mein. The portion is generous in size & always comes out hot. Since there is only bottled beer, I usually treat myself to a MaiTai-yum-one is enough! The restaurant is tucked away in a corner with other businesses. There is plenty of parking.“
“The food always reflects the price, and I have never had a bad meal here. The workers are very kind and they make some fantastic sushi. It is typically quiet inside, which is the kind of environment I like to dine in. The special rolls, especially the mango tango, Nashua, and TNT, are my favorites.Parking: There is street parking, but it is sometimes full. There are public parking lots nearby luckily, as long as you don't mind walking a couple blocks!“
“Wonderful staff! Our chef was entertaining and skillful. Food was perfectly cooked. The atmosphere is fun and friendly.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free meal was prepared separately in the kitchen and brought out when everyone else was being served. Thank you!“
“Just WOW! Its a beautiful space. The Koi pond at the entrance could be spruced up a little and wires and pips hidden. But everything else was just great. Service was amazing, friendly, able to joke with you. Very good. Food was good. I would expect better maki at a place like this, but it was still good. I would highly recommend.“
“We loved the place, the food was delicious, the portion sizes were very generous, the prices were on the lower side compared to other towns closer to Boston. The owner even us the dish for free (they had chicken something (nuggets, or skewers) special, and they wanted us to try it, and it was very delicious. We were visiting Lowell cotton museum on a snowy January Sunday, thus we wanted to eat inside. We were the only ones inside, but there were so many people coming in to pick up their orders, so I figured we made the right choice for lunch, this place must be popular among locals. Next time we are in Lowell again, we'll make sure to come back Osawa!“
