“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.“
“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.“
“Delicious Pad Thai! I ordered shrimp pad Thai and there were very few shrimp but could have been a mistake. The flavor is great. Crab rangoons were alright! Pretty sweet. Overall I'm excited to try more items from here. Reasonable prices for big portions and the inside is a good vibe.“
“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.“
“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.“
“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!“
“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 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.“
“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.“
“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.“
“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.“
“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.“
