We ordered edamame and shumai. It's a busy place so expect to wait a bit for food. However, the appetizers were great. We ordered a bunch of sushi rolls. Yes, "Dirty old man" is as good as advertised. I also had some nigiri. Nice portion sizes. We didn't finish all the sushi. My son decided to order the chicken fingers. They were pretty bad. I tried a bite. First it's not white meat chicken. Not sure what it was. We told the waitress and she took it away and didn't charge us. We appreciated that. I told my son that you can't expect Canes/Dave's level chicken fingers at a sushi place!

However, the experience inside is anything but. The staff were so welcoming and genuinely seemed happy that our part of was there. Our group of 8 sat around a hibachi table. We were pretty quickly welcomed, and our drink orders were taken. Soon after our food orders were taken and the show started (about 20 to 25 minutes after our reservation time). The staff was great to check and double check regarding accommodations for allergies. We started with Japanese clear soup and salad with ginger dressing. Our hibachi chef was so personable and fun. We thoroughly enjoyed his cooking style, jokes, and the food he prepared for us. We received very generous portions of food and many of us walked away with leftovers. I am excited to return. Every part of this experience was great.

We didn't come here for AYCE, we saw the sign for Oishi and that drew us in. Tucked away, I mean tucked away in the corner, off a shopping plaza on Milwaukee, the prospect for delicious sushi brought us here. My companion ordered a few specialty maki, another one ordered ramen, and I ordered a few pieces of Saba and a roll. There were a few tables chowing on the $30 AYCE sushi lunch. If that's what you like, go for it. My companion pronounced her sushi "Oishi," and the other said their ramen was just ok, rather bland. My Saba was delicious. The only thing that brought down our visit was the TV, practically in front of our faces that was broadcasting a person we didn't want to see. Oishi Sushi is Oishi.

Quickly seated for party of four and placed drink order right out of the gate. Good selection of cocktails, Japanese beers and sake to choose from. Hefty list of appetizers and always enjoy a good gyoza and calamari! The salmon bento was calling my name and it was a perfect blend of fresh veggies and perfectly cooked salmon to enjoy with a side of rice. It is a cozy casual vibe with an upbeat feel here and great for anything from solo to group dining. Excellent service from the attentive snd friendly staff both quickly bussing table, drink service and even ensuring our parties "not the best with chopsticks" novice users with aided ones. Great place to enjoy exciting fresh food and drinks among friends!

Our 21-month old granddaughter was along so we had to be a bit circumspect in our choice. But my wife and I both like Japanese fare and our granddaughter, whose Mom is Korean, gets a lot of that type of food at home. The location of this place is in a strip plaza tucked away in a non-descript commercial area. It was not too difficult to locate with GPS. The interior was well-kept and made a good impression on entry. Located in a single storefront slot, it was not too surprising that it was narrow in layout. It could probably be described as cozy. We were seated right away and our server attended to us quickly. She did an exceptional job taking care of us during our visit. The food was delivered promptly and was ready to eat with no problems. We started with the Asparagus Beef Maki, which was excellent. Served in a soy-based sauce, it was very tasty. For entrees, we tried a Bento Box (Box C) and a Dinner combo (Combo C). Both featured tempura and sushi. We both gave thumbs-up to these. We were able to feed our granddaughter from our portions amd have some to take home as well. With food, drinks, tax and tip, our total was $76. At roughly $38 per person (cheaper on a per-person basis really, since we fed a toddler as well), this was a good deal. We will definitely go back when we are in the area.
