I don't recall the last time I gave a 1 star review, but here it goes. The moment we were seated at the hibachi table I could smell it. The bathroom! A combination of urine and disinfectant cleaner. Like an alley outside a club or the NY subway. I should have walked out right there. I mean big red flag right? Let's get to the drinks and food. My Mango Martini wasn't a Mango Martini. No idea what it was, but it was bitter and unbalanced. The mushroom soup was bland and the salad, consisting of too big lettuce leaves, was soaked in ginger dressing. The hibachi show was lackluster. The fried rice was over salted, the chicken and shrimp was soaked in some sort of bland teriyaki sauce. The veggies were nearly cooked. We were served just the yum yum sauce and had to ask for ginger sauce. The ginger sauce was either chunky or watery. Our server was attentive. It was the worst hibachi meal I've ever had. So next time I enter a restaurant and I can smell the bathroom I'm leaving because whatever happens next can't be good. read more

3.5 Stars. I ordered sushi from here! It's expensive for sure (miso soup, 3 types of sashimi and a small veggie roll was around $45) but the quality is decent and it's a nice healthy dinner. I loved the escolar, eel, and mackerel sashimi. Can't speak for the interior but the food was prepared in a very timely manner. read more

Mosaka Hibachi - $45 of sushi takeout (without added fees) - Sushi Bars Near Me - Marlborough, Massachusetts

We ordered several sushi rolls for takeout along with a few appetizers. The good: fish quality and quantity. The bad: flavor. Despite the promising ingredients, the flavor just fell flat leaving the experience underwhelming and forgettable. read more

Mosaka Hibachi - Sushi rolls ft. mosaka monster & king, black friday, millenium, and shrimp nigiri - Sushi Bars Near Me - Marlborough, Massachusetts

Few food experiences offer the fun and hype of a well done hibachi. Mosaka delivered! Several colleagues and I came on a Monday evening, of all nights. That was of little consequence. The staff were excited to serve and the Chef aimed to please. It felt like the adage, what you do in practice shows in the game. Straight bulletproof! Consider this an all star practice, before the weekend crowds. The seafood was fresh. I had it in both soup and sushi form. Delicious! All the food was cooked to near perfection. The Chef fired up the grill and went to town. He was slinging fire, pieces of vegetable and saki. A master at his craft! The overall atmosphere is exactly what you'd expect at a hibachi joint. Highest recommendation. Bon appetite! read more

I rarely write reviews, but this restaurant came recommended, and it hugely disappointed us. I am a long-time hibachi fan, going back almost 30 years. When we entered and were seated, we noticed an extremely strong, pungent smell, reminiscent of a veterinary clinic, that never quite went away for the whole evening. This is on whomever is managing the establishment; it is not clean, and the smell was overwhelming. Our server was otherwise attentive to our table, and that is the only highlight I can share. My appetizer, a sashimi, lacked in presentation and freshness. The green was not shiso, and the shredded vegetable was not daikon. I'm OK when one is missing/substituted, but not both. And it's a red flag for me when the cuts are separated by slices of lemon. Together, these are signs of failure to execute, but not on the part of the preparer. They were instructed and guided. The cooking experience was off. The hibachi chef ran through the usual motions, but aside from being tossed raw zucchini and sprayed cold sake (which he pronounced "sack-eee" like he's accommodating a gaggle of unsophisticated, provincial 'murican's), we experienced very little in flair, and the chef failed to stack or properly ignite a proper onion volcano. Hibachi is expensive. In addition to the spectacle of the show, it needs to be prepared in a manner that appeals to the palate, if only marginally. Our proteins and vegetables were under-seasoned, except for the fried rice, which was extremely salty. And we were only served yum yum sauce. What on earth is yum yum sauce? Where did the Chinese mustard sauce go? I had to request ginger sauce, which was unable to overcome the lack of seasoning in the dishes, and was fundamentally incompatible with the beef. Overall, such a negative experience that I had to write about it. read more

The sushi is great and so are all the staff here! After a long day of traveling I stopped in here to grab a quick bite and it absolutely hit the spot. I started with salmon, tuna, and eel sushi and it was excellent. A great way to start the meal and then I finished it off with a soft shell crab and spicy tuna roll that was insanely good. I wish my stomach was bigger cause I didn't want to stop eating. I came in an hour before closing time on a Saturday night and it seemed fairly empty, which is surprising for how good this place is. Next time I'm in town, I'll be sure to stop back in again! read more

Poor service and tiny portions, not great for groups Rating: The food here is fairly average, nothing spectacular and certainly not worth the headache we dealt with. We brought a group of tweens, and the portion sizes were disappointing. The starters in particular were tiny (honestly, only good for feeding the birds), which made it difficult to satisfy a larger group. The real issue, however, was the service. Our waitress was incredibly rude and completely lacked professionalism. She messed up my order by bringing a salad instead of the miso soup I asked for. When I pointed it out, she was unapologetic, even claiming I had already eaten a salad with soup just because there were extra salads on the table that we hadn't even touched. After I insisted that I still wanted the soup I actually ordered, she finally brought it out and smashed the bowl down on the table with one hand. When I told her I didn't appreciate the attitude, she dismissively snapped that the "soup was hot" as an excuse. Between the mediocre food and the hostile service, I wouldn't recommend this spot if you're looking for a pleasant dining experience. [Update] Service was almost non-existent, yet they added a mandatory gratuity of around $54 for our group of 11. The fee that was never disclosed to us beforehand. Under Massachusetts law, these fees must be transparently shared before ordering. We were happy to pay for the food, but forcing a high-service fee for 'service' that was nearly non-existent, objectively poor and undisclosed is unacceptable. read more

Michael was our server and was absolutely fantastic and attentive. He came at the exact times we needed him. He even offered my little one a Japanese soda that wasn't on our radar! And it was SO cute to watch him crack open the fizzy cube that went in. That ALONE started our night off right! This was our 6 year old daughter's first time at a hibachi and she was BEYOND involved in the whole show. OH! And, this little picky eater of a girl, LOVED her food. I enjoyed that they had a kid menu that was reasonably priced and over-portioned. The chef definitely did his thing. Great, entertaining show and he was super mindful to not scare my daughter with his fire skills (or burn off my fake lashes, lol). They asked about allergies, preferences, done-ness, etc. and were super thorough about our requests. This family absolutely recommends. Terrific show. Great food. Superb service (and STRONG Scorpion Bowls). Make sure you tip well! And leave a bit for the hibachi chef too. They are the shining stars of the outfit! One last thing! My kiddo requested I write "100 Stars on Yelp.com, Momma!" read more

This place is tucked in the Apex Center. Super modern multi colored lighting with hibachi and sushi available. When walked in I could hear the excitement from the hibachi. Servers were nice and food came out quick and tasted fresh. I ordered the rainbow roll and a fried shrimp appetizer. I was very happy with the freshness and flavor. Will be back on my next work trip! read more

I really enjoyed the food options service at the bar was lovely I would have liked to have had Teppanyaki but it wasn't available at the time I was there and I was just by myself read more

We waited for nearly 45 minutes with reservations but the staff & cook were very friendly. The cook wasn't careful putting food on the plates, so some of the food ended up in my drink & table, for the $$$ he should have been more careful. Also I thought it was inappropriate for the cook to pressure us for a tip & the restaurant to require a tip with the bill. Double dipping on the tip was greedy. Nonetheless the food was good, but the place was a little too loud for me. read more

Sushi was tasty. Definitely not worth the price though. $10+ for a simple roll with only 6 pieces. After door dash fees it was about $37, before $26. This meal was not filling at all. It was delicious sushi but not nearly enough for the cost. When I order these rolls elsewhere I usually get 8 pieces for at max $8.75 for the roll. read more

I would give y'all 6 stars if I could! This is our go to local sushi restaurant!! we usually order for pickup but we occasionally sit down and eat at a table. we get the same server almost every time and shes great! answers all my questions and makes sure we have everything we need! The dining room is really cool, but I hope we can try to sit outside soon! I see a patio with tables but the weather always sucks here. if you're hungry & enjoy the cuisine, definitely try Mosaka because the food comes out super fast. We always start with the pan fried gyozas and we KEEP the gyoza sauce to put on the rest of our food (its so good) the spicy salmon or tuna roll is my go to. the shrimp tempura roll is my other favorite, but when im with my boyfriend (who can't eat shrimp) we get the sweet potato tempura roll & its also SO good. and the delicious roll is just as it states! i always get the Mongolian Mai Tai and try a new drink after our first round of sushi. Recently tried "The Awakening" martini, which is their chocolate espresso martini. I liked it & will probably get it again next time! also wanted to add that anywhere I have ever picked up food from has always messed up at least one part of my order but that NEVER happens here. I've been ordering here since it opened & they always provide me with my extra gyoza sauce, and separate the shrimp rolls from my boyfriend's rolls. Thank you guys so much! update: we went back and got our usual, definitely also recommend the sweetheart roll!! read more

Has a decent experience here. I ordered the salmon hibachi dinner which came with two lovely sized pieces of salmon. My only complaint is that the salmon was a bit over cooked. Our server was friendly and attentive. We went on a Wednesday night which it wasn't that crowded. We were seated with another couple. We were in and out, no excessive long time waited to be served. read more

Mosaka Hibachi - Hibachi salmon - Sushi Bars Near Me - Marlborough, Massachusetts

This place has gone through different owners, changes and so this is a new review. Place is still well decorated and fancy, and the food is really good. I have my favorite (I'm so partial to FENG in Hudson), but I can't complain about how good the sushi was. I am a fan of "popcorn shrimp" and the presentation is cute in a martini glass, but hard to navigate, and deceiving with all the greens they put underneath - you think there is more, but ALAS! you get to the greens below and you feel lost in translation, yearning for more of the hot, crispy and delicious lil buggers. They have some interesting rolls that are really good, the Y2K with the yellowtail and tempura shrimp is actually 2 rolls in one, so for $16 (give or take) you get about 8 slices instead of 4. And if you double my fried shrimp, I'm your friend... Topped with spicy yellowtail mixture. Really good. Good food, good service. Excellent? No, but it can be. read more

The food was good. Service was awful. We went there after playing at Apex, nearby. 4 adults and 3 kids. We had drinks and all ate and the bill was at $300. One of our kids is a picky eater so we asked for a half avocado with a spoon for him. The charge for that was $6. We often ask for that for him and never has a restaurant charged us such an absurd price. Food also took over an hour to come out and it was not busy as the place was not even half full. The orders were all mixed up where rolls were delivered on one plate for people at opposite ends of table. We asked for them to please plate separately due to allergies (shrimp) but they didn't. Seems like they don't want return business. Just price gauging. read more

Mosaka is one of those chain restaurants that knows they have you. The food is good with a selection of both hibachi, teriyaki, and sushi on the menu. The service was pretty terrible though the server friendly. I had to ask for water twice which I never received, and had to ask to order as she forgot to take the from 6 people at our table of 20. I appreciate that a table for 20 is annoying and she was trying but none of the food came out together. The atmosphere is typical hibachi though would have been much more fun had we sat at a hibachi table. Our kids sat together and had an absolute blast. read more

Terrible decision to celebrate my son's birthday there. We went on Saturday night at 6:30 which I made a reservation for and said numerous time it was for a birthday. We got there and had to wait :30 minutes. When we finally got to our table they rushed us along and practically pushed us out. No show, no vegetables to catch in the mouth, nada. The food was fine. I was really dissatisfied and disappointed with our experience. read more

Maybe it was an off night, but this was not a good experience tonight. The service was terrible: waited forever for drinks; dinner (hibachi) demonstration before apps arrived; sushi alternative served at differing times and not timely; served meat to a vegetarian. Not good. The filet and chicken were tough and the shrimps were overcooked. There are plenty of other places to choose from in the area, so choose a different one! read more

Right next to the Embassy Suites. Nice folks. Good sushi. Skip the miso soup. It's probably better for those interested in the Hibachi performance. read more

The service was quick and attentive. My sons each tried a Japanese soda with the glass marble, which we didn't know how to open . The did Hibachi and were sat with another party. The chef was entertaining and great with the kids. We had shrimp, chicken, and steak with hibachi dinner. Definitely recommend the scallion pancakes. The dipping sauce was so good. Also, my 10 year old inhaled the 2 sushi rolls he ordered. Can't wait to go back. Will probably sit in restaurant area next time as we've done the hibachi show. Would definitely add this to your list of must dos in Marlborough read more

Very pleasant experience, friendly staff, good food . Can't say anything else other than I'd recommend

Went yesterday on the early side to beat the crowds. First of all the service was terrible, our waitress had no idea what was on the menu and was very unfriendly. the dining room only had two tables full of people. We ordered the chicken satay, which was just cut up chicken thigh meat and the peanut sauce was not edible, the garlic broccoli was a mushy mess with no taste. The Tom Yam soup was mediocre at best, we also ordered two sushi rolls that we couldn't even finish. It was definitely not at all a great meal and was expensive. We left there hungry and grossed out. That being said, we will not be going back. read more

This is our first time back since it used to be Okami. A much better experience this time around. We went on a Monday and didn't wait at all. They had multiple chefs available for the hibachi unlike okami where you had to wait for a very long time even with a reservation. Food was delicious and the chef was very fun! We went for my sons birthday and he had a great time. They sang him a song at the end and played it over the speaker and he got a free sundae and a fun Mario keychain! They also brought dum dum lollipops out for both my kid which made my daughter so happy since it wasn't her birthday and she still got something. Definitely worth giving it a shot as it's not the same as okami was. read more

I normally don't leave reviews unless I'm really impressed or really disappointed. Tonight it was the latter. I get that Hibachi's are reluctant to open a grill for a single. However, traveling alone I frequently am single and have numerous times waited for other parties to arrive and have been seated with them. No problem. I offered to wait tonight as well. Not so at Mosaka. The greeter immediately stated they don't serve singles. She then asked the manager, who mumbled a few words, checked about 3 times at a table that had JUST been seated, with several open seats, finally pulling out a menu while asking if I knew what I wanted. I said I wanted hibachi. She never offered for me to see the menu so after a few seconds I said if it's too much trouble I'll go elsewhere. I'd give zero stars if I could. I'm sure the food is good, however don't waste your time if you're dining alone. read more
