I ordered the Yakisoba, and was unimpressed. Maybe I'm biased because I just came back from a trip in the actual Osaka. I had the Yakisoba from a local restaurant, and it was probably one of the best things I've eaten in my life. This Yakisoba was far from authentic, and tasted completely different than I thought it would. It wasn't bad, or inedible (I thought it was somewhat enjoyable), but it was very greasy, and oily. What do I expect though from Richmond? It's really hard to find authentic food from other countries especially more niche cuisines (at least more niche compared to say Mexican, Italian, or Indian) such as Japanese. Overall though the atmosphere, and general area was nice. Plus I don't want to be too harsh considering I hadn't tried anything else there. I guess just work on the Yakisoba. Very greasy, and not super authentic.

Food is good, but the sushi rolls are $4-5 higher than Hiro Sushi if you want take out often. UPDATE (3/16/24 under Jeff): I dinned in for the first time since I usually order out right after work. I went with my mom (BDay), and sister for a nice dinner. The food was great and noise level was not too bad. However, at the end the server made sure to CIRCLE the total for my bill, as if to mention you should tip well since you spent a good amount of money. I tipped decent, but just because you brought me $25-30 plates doesn't make your service that high or higher. You filled my glass twice....
Parking: Easy and plenty.

Definitely need to up their service. We waited for the person to even take out appetizers order for 10 mins, I had to go up the front and ask someone to help us. Such bad service. She was than again chatting with another customer (upper class ppl) it was my daughter and me and yet we were ignore for minutes. Food is not great. Am sorry if ppl think they have great sushi oh man they should reevaluate their taste on sushi. Appetizers was ok salad was ok with about 6 pieces of octopus and cucumber so sweet we didn’t finish it. Sushi was more rice than actually the fish we pick, I mean my 5 yr old even mention it and how it was so salty as well. So no I won’t be back to pay $80 of my money. And not I rather not even have anyone waste their money for that so call sushi

I’ve been meaning to write this for a few months now. I really like Osaka but the chefs need to learn the different levels of cooked steak. I took my wife out for an anniversary dinner and she order a filet “medium” it came out completely raw inside. We aren’t ones to send food back but we did. Again it came out raw but we just dealt with it at that point. She managed to eat what was edible. This is not the first time I’ve had this issue here. I myself ordered a filet a while back “well done” and it came out rare. If I have the choice to choose how I want my steak done I’d like the chefs to cook it appropriately.

Went there for a late lunch during the week. Service was okay, definitely slow to get started. Food was just edible and okay, but not really sushi grade. The tuna they used looked like the kind that has pink dye added. For the location and price point, I would have expected higher quality tuna. The rice was poorly seasoned, if at all. Sushi pieces were huge and hard to eat. Definitely not a one-bite like sushi should be.

Food pretty good. Bartender with giant gauges was super rude. Food all came out at different times, kind of weird but sushi is always good.
First time here! Recommended by several people and so glad my family and I finally went. The Sushi was great and the staff were very kind. Shout out to our waitress Liz R. She was absolutely fantastic—so sweet, attentive, and quick to go out of her way to fix mistake with our order. Osaka management please take the time to recognize her. She is one of the reasons why we definitely will be back.?
