The staff is friendly and great you right away. The decor is amazing and your can't miss the giant fish tank in the middle of the restaurant.

Now onto the food. I order steamed dumplings, beef with broccoli, which also came with choice of soup, fried rice and egg roll. All the food came out hot and flavorful. I can't wait to go back to this restaurant and enjoy something else off the menu.“

It’s on the level with the trendiest sushi places and izakaya spots in LA, Vegas, Manhattan and San Francisco and we are so glad that it’s right here.

I will definitely be back again.“

“We went here before a show at the Keswick. We arrived early enough We didn't need to wait to be seated. About an hour later that was not the case for people walking in around 630pm. We asked for one of each menus (normal and all you cam eat). We were tossed two normal menus and away the server went to retrieve our waters. My girlfriend ordered all you can eat, and I got General Tso. The main dish for her came out before her appetizers which was strange. Also, it came out separate from my meal. Both meal were very good! As for the food we loved it. Very big portions. Only complaints was my veggies surrounding my main course was not even warm. Would we go back, surely. The food was worth it. Last add in i only gave the atmosphere 2 stars as I was getting bucked like riding a bull the entire meal as the seats transfer every single movement from the couple on the other side.“

“Eaten in and gotten take out from here many times, about once a month or so. Quality is consistent and dependable. The restaurant is often fairly busy, reservations are recommended but it's possible to get a table without them. One of the best restaurants in the area for sure.
There are so many excellent menu options, it's hard to make a bad choice.“

“It was my first time eating at Osaka Hibachi and I was very pleased with both the meal and service.
I ordered the chicken and salmon hibachi and both meats were tender.
The vegetables were cooked perfectly.
The rice was also cooked well.
My only con was the teriyaki/ hibachi sauce was a tad bit salty. Other than that- great experience and you get a lot of food!“

“Love this food! Just tried it when looking for Pad Thai since I struggle to find good pad thai in this area. This one did not disappoint! Plenty of chicken, great sauce flavor, great ratio of meat to veggies to noodles - this will be a go to for me. The mango chicken and pineapple fried rice were also really nicely flavored and tasted light and fresh! I did take out which was quick and easy, so I can't comment on the atmosphere other than everyone seemed nice and the decor seemed like a standard Asian restaurant.“

“This Asian Fusion restaurant is located on Main Street in Manayunk. My first visit here a friend's choice. We were here during the Ice Festival and they had Lion Dancers performing on the hour for the festival and Lunar New Year. Our waitress was very pleasant and understanding with friend who always has a difficult time deciding what to order. So finally he got a shrimp dish with rice along with the seaweed salad which I recommended. We both liked the salad and he liked his shrimp. I ordered a large bowl of wonton soup which was in a huge bowl filled with about 15 wonton noodle wraps filled with deliciously pork. The broth was excellent!! We finished with a chocolate mousse fir desert and left happy satisfied and energetically warm.“

“soooo fresh and delicious.“
