Tried this for dinner Friday night. Just ok. Food pretty tasty, service lacking, can't cook a…read moresteak to requested temperature, not good for a place that claims to be a Japanese Steakhouse. We were seated at our reservation time. I opted to forego the "show" ... being seated at a community table for the chef show. But clearly this is the primary focus of this restaurant. The 5-10 smaller individual 2 and 4-tops are adjacent to the bar. The place was packed, and so noisy I couldn't even hear the other person at my table. But on the flip side, it looked and sounded like the people at the community "show" tables were having a ball. Lots of birthdays and celebrations. Anyway, great menu. Started with a couple inspired cocktails, and moved on to the fish taco's and lamb chop appetizers. Outstanding. Only nit, our server disappeared, and the app plates were left on table when our main courses showed up. We were also never serviced for another round of drinks. For our mains I ordered the Wagyu filet with asparagas and fried rice sides cooked medium. My dining guest ordered the salmon roll and a side of fried rice. My steak came out gray and rare, no sear crust at all. Very disappointing. On the flip side my dining partners portion of fried rice was astoundingly large, and good. Never did see our server again until the check was brought over. We were not even offered the dessert menu other than the small pineapple sherbet that came with my meal. Parking is brutal here. Very crowded area on weekend. Had a long walk to restaurant entrance. Don't think this will be on my repeat list.

I am utterly confused that this location is saying closed.

Food was delicious. Service was even better and I am totally bummed if this is true this was probably the best date I've had in forever honestly, the steak tacos on the appetizer menu were perfection sauce had a little kick sushi was delicious. My husband had a steak with some amazing fried rice. Please tell me this isn't true because Peoria needs this. Honestly, the entire West Valley needs a place like this.

Stand out items to order: the corn appetizer, the yellowtail carpaccio, or the salmon carpaccio, and sashimi on the menu. We have tried almost every appetizer and all of them are good. This place is truly not known well enough for the quality of the food. Finally, the servers are amazing, and there is plenty of parking. For some reason, this place is not often busy, so you don't have to wait forever to eat.

We have beem going to Harumi for quite some time even before the new location which males theor old…read moreone look like a shack in comparison. Harumi has some great seafood flown in every day and I cant say enough about how great their Omakase is which I believe is only offered after 6pm. They have amazing sake bombers and also recommend the Unagi Don bown. Sushi can be pricey but for a great offering of sashimi and nigiri, I cant say it breaks the bank. They also have a wide range of rolls that the kids love as well as a flaming one done table side which is fun to watch. They also have real wasabi for just two dollars more which is well worth it. I also recommend happy hour for cheap damage, squid salad, and aforementioned sake bombers. Really a great option if you are staying downtown but also worth the trip from anywhere in the valley. Service is fantastic and quick, plus they have a bar at the sushi station if you want to see tour meal being made.the new location has very modern ambience and a very upscale feel to it. Waits havent been crazy but I recommend coming early. Also ask for the secret yokozunas flying banana. Well worth it.

The Mackerel was well marinated and not too sour but also a nice fatty flavor. The white tuna, has an extremely subtle flavor but all the Sashimi did not have a fish taste, which is all that I ask for. The grilled shrimp was well seasoned. The oyster is hard to determine. Overall, A great experience, value, and worth the drive if you're craving Sashimi.

Friday Night Dinner with the Fam to KickOff Our Spring Break Adventures!!!…read more This was a good choice. There are many items to choose from on the all-you-can -eat menu. Everything was fresh and tasty. The presentation was excellent, as well. My fav is the Carpaccio and The baked mussels. Yum! After I tapped out, they brought a beautiful tray of oysters for another table that looked amazing. I would try that next time. We also had the Spicy Garlic Edamame, Miso soup, Seaweed Salad, and the Gyoza. Our server was super sweet and very attentive. All the staff work as a team to make sure everyone is happy and getting everything they need. They all help to clear plates and bring new dishes to the table. They have a decent array of drinks and Sakis. The seating has a good size area with booths and tables. They have room to move tables to accommodate for larger parties, which is a bonus. There are tv screens up on the walls with different shows and videos playing. They also have music playing which was nice. It's a fun & casual vibe. They just recently changed ownership and names so that's probably why we got in so quickly on a Friday night. They are making changes to the menu and so there will be more updates coming soon. The parking is right outside and it's a big shared lot so it was easy. The building and windows are dark but at night they have a new neon sign that says" Brave Sushi-all you can eat. " There are two cost options you can pick $35 for all you can eat, except the Nigiri, or $40 to include the Nigiri. They both include ice cream for dessert.

Our server Corey was great (great attitude and was so great) Overall I would come back as it is great for the family but the menu has misprints (says the gyoza was chicken and veggies but it is actually beef) also no bottle still water but only tap water.

Osaka Japanese Steakhouse is one of my favorite teppanyaki spots and always delivers a fun,…read moreenergetic, and memorable dining experience. The atmosphere is welcoming for both regular guests and those celebrating special occasions, and it really stands out as a place where dinner turns into an event. What makes it especially enjoyable is how interactive and festive everything feels. Celebrations--especially birthdays--are taken to another level with music, singing, and even traditional Japanese masks, creating a lively and entertaining environment that everyone gets to be part of. On top of the experience, the food is consistently excellent. Everything is cooked fresh right in front of you, with great flavor and quality across the board. If you're looking for a place that combines great teppanyaki-style dining with a fun, high-energy atmosphere, Osaka Japanese Steakhouse is a top-tier choice.

At 5:58, I was asked if he was even coming (still 2 minutes before our reservation time). My brother walked in at 5:59 -- early for the reservation. The guy looked perturbed.

Facing the bar is the wine cellar, a floor to ceiling long glass presentation of their collection. There is a separate special event room in the back for hosting private dinners with special event reservations. Tonight this room was reserved for Yelp's "Elite All-Stars" and hosted by the Roka-Akar and the wonderful Phoenix Yelp Community Manager (CM) Francheska J, I popped my head in to say hello to her and she was kind enough to give me some merch.
