My dad was once a gourmet chef; he and I love to eat well, and we ended up at Osaka on a late rainy night. We were treated like royalty. Everyone was kind, helpful, sweet, and patient. The food was one of the best meals my dad and I have had in years. Though it was closing time, they patiently let us enjoy and finish our meal. The food was flavorful, artfully presented, generous in its portions, and delicious. The whole experience was a delight.

I’ve gone here for the last 20 years for my birthday, and I have never been disappointed. I’ve lived here my whole life and still believe the sushi, food and service is the best in town beating Sake, Kampai and other comparable options. It has seen less traffic over the last few years which makes me sad, but it is by far the best! I will ALWAYS pick Osaka!

I did not realize how nice of a place this was! We came with a party of 8 and none of us left disappointed or hungry. The food was very good. I will definitely be returning.
One thing that I really enjoyed was that the hibachi meals came out in courses (with a salad and fried rice). The pacing of the courses was spot on, which points to the staff being attentive to how fast our table was eating.
The service was fantastic from beginning to...
