The portions were good, taste, & price was all on point. Ana, behind the counter, was very informative on the toppings and add ons. Will definitely be back 👌🏽“

My only complaint is that when my glucose level dropped very low, I asked for a cup so I could get some ice and drink something to raise my sugar. Unfortunately, I never received the cup. As someone living with diabetes, this was not only disappointing but also concerning, since timely support in those moments is very important. I truly hope this can be improved for the safety and care of future guests.”“

“Food was great I highly recommend going for sushi“

“Great service and great food. Place always is clean. Good portions of food.“

“An all you can eat experience. I went in for lunch with a friend and we both enjoyed the food. She had a hibachi bowl with plenty of fixings that she thoroughly enjoyed. I ate all the cooked sushi options I could since I’m pregnant. The ordering system was very simple via tablet straight to the table. Korean bbq was yummy and appetizers were good as well. Looking forward to visiting again to enjoy more of the raw options.“

“Sexy jalapeño my favorite! If you haven’t tried…… try it!!!“

“What is it about astronaut-types who love sushi? This might be a generalization but Osaka is a NASA haunt. I’m pretty sure this sushi restaurant’s bread-and-butter is due in part to the fact they are literally across the street from NASA and know how to serve delicious sushi with decades of veteran expertise.

Osaka Japanese Restaurant offers tasty and reliable dishes. And has for many years. It does not have a fusion menu or flashy decor. It does has traditional Japanese fare that you will enjoy and likely come back for.

The sushi bar, itself, is small. I’ve sat at it a few times, over the years, and found it a friendly and comfortable place to dine alone. The service in the large dining area is usually austere and efficient. I’ve only ever seen one waiter work the entire restaurant at night and he does it well.

When we dined here, recently, I was in a Japanese comfort food mood. So, this review is devoid of any raw seafood reflections. There are many, many options outside of sushi to choose from at Osaka.

I was relieved to know that our dishes came with miso soup and a ginger dressing salad, as should be normal at full-service Japanese restaurants. The dressing was so good that I sipped most all it after the salad was gone. I lost all of my dignity and sipped it like soup.

I ordered a Bento Box. The Bento Boxes are impressive, here, because of their variety and portion size. We enjoyed Bento Box “B,” with salmon teriyaki, 6 California rolls, shrimp and vegetable tempura, gyoza dumplings and white rice.

I wouldn’t dare ask for a California roll substitution because I’m guessing everyone else does and classically Bento Boxes are not ‘make your own’. But I abhor the painted-red faux crabmeat in California rolls which one finds at many restaurants and markets. Not these rolls, at Osaka, however! I actually more-than-liked their California rolls and Ican honestly say I do not usually eat them without removing the meat. Not here. This is really saying a lot about their food quality, here. I didn’t ask but I think they actually use real crab meat instead of the pollock or otherwise fish blend that 95% of places use in California rolls. When you’re in the state of Maryland eating California rolls, faux crab meat is heresy.

The salmon teriyaki in the Bento Box B was a tastey surprise! It was super-fresh, perfectly seared and not overcooked. The shrimp tempura were average/fine. The vegetable tempura was even better: asparagus, eggplant and a yam. I think the fried coating could have been lighter and airier but it was not too thick.

The gyoza dumplings were a definite stand-out: were these homemade?! They must have been because they were expertly seasoned, delightfully herby and aromatic. Must get more gyoza!

Entree #2 was pork katsu called Ton Katsu. The pork was good but I much prefer their chicken katsu. The person I was sharing these dishes with preferred pork. It was good and well-seasoned. The ton katsu sauce was complex and the umami was definitely there. It was thick, smoky and dark. Not at all sweet. We also requested the sweeter teriyaki sauce on the side and I ended up using equal parts of each.

The second standout at Osaka was the cabbage side dish which came with the pork ton katsu entree. This was a lovely and unique presentation of thinly-sliced cabbage along with other flavors. I don’t know if they also offer this as an appetizer but I really liked it. I also added some ginger dressing to it and tasted even better.

All in all Osaka Japanese Restaurant in Greenbelt is maybe overlooked and should never be because their sushi and entrees are at least reliably classic and good, if not delicious and - at times - even surprising.“

“Cool concept it’s like +6 kitchens in 1. They offer a lot of different promos on social media. From Alana pizza, I ordered the burrata and the bacon pesto pizza. The burrata was really fresh and I enjoyed the pesto pizza. From Di Fara pizza, I ordered the pepperoni, sausage and meatball pizza. Not sure if it was dough or the pizza was undercooked, but I wish there was more of a crisp to the crust. I found myself chewing longer than expected.

Location was really clean and ordering via the app was easy. There’s plenty of street parking around the shopping center. Prices are high for the area. I would definitely be back to try some of the other restaurants.“

“Nothing less than phenomenal. Everything was hot, everything was fresh, and everything tasted amazing. Will definitely be coming back whenever in the area. Fairly priced as well...can't beat that.“

“This is a great place to shop as a vegan. They have so many vegan products. They have so many delicious vegan options at their food bar too. I love how you can get a healthy vegan meal at a relatively decent price when on the go. They also have lots of vegan options in thier bakery like vegan muffins, scones, donuts, turnovers, and cookies. This is one of my favorite places to grab a quick meal.“

“Never been here all 4 years, but found it a couple weeks ago and I can’t get enough. Love the lunch deal it comes with two rolls and a soup which is the perfect amount of the food. The fish taste very fresh and the portions are great for the price. Highly recommend.“

“There is always someone cleaning the tables and the environment is SO clean and comfortable. Especially the service too, they are so nice and patient with customers. AND the FOOD, it is so DELICIOUS, the portion is really good, they also give out extra sauces without charging extra 😋😋“

“Aside from the service being extremely slow and always having to flag down our waitress, I have no complaints. The Wonton soup was superb. The flavor of the broth was chefs kiss. I wanted to try this place after seeing a viral video of their hand rolled sushi. My bff and I both tried the super crunchy roll but requested it be hand rolled. It was sooo good, omg. I’ll definitely be back.“

“Dining in is a great experience with friendly staff and a relaxing mostly quiet atmosphere. The chicken, steak, sushi, noodles vegetables everything is great. If you get just take out that's great too. I always get the orange chicken (which i cant find a place that has better Orange chicken) with fried rice vegetables, Wong tong soup and chow mein. Never had anything I didn't like and my wife loves them too. The hibachi style chicken and steak are great and the shrimp is cooked perfectly with the tails trimmed off. Sushi is prepared carefully and just everything ive had off the menu has been delicious and the servings for the price are great.“

“Been 7 months since I went here to get very good Chinese food, and not messing up order like lee deli which is close now. The food was excellent in my opinion and staff very polite and funny. Plus chef can cook really good, mostly tried chicken specials, good seasoning and texture, appetizers, Chinese food, great for feeding a family of four or more which is great. Also do not forget to show your coupon before you order they honor it.“

“Me and my group of friends always come here to eat whenever we hangout.This spot is always our top go to place to go whenever we’re hungry and bored.The sushi here is amazing, especially the chicken teryaki rolls.The workers are so nice to us , and the place is overall amazing.However , I don’t really recommend online ordering.Sometimes the sushi will get smushed, it’s better to just order in person.But this place is honestly the best im genuinely impressed , the place is so quiet and calm whenever you enter its a great place to just chill.Me and my friends love it here!“
