Our special day was made even more special by a wonderful blend of delectable menu options, thoughtful service and ambiance. The menu presented extensive and adventurous options that as first timers could have been intimidating but with the help of Donavin our delightful server, we selected the perfect seafood salad for the Mrs. and the curated selection of Maki (delicious sushi "tacos") that together made for the perfect share. Add to that a smooth Japanese beer and a surprisingly moderate overcast that made our dinner on the patio the perfect way to celebrate our first meeting 47 years ago. There were so many other tempting menu options that we'll look forward to sampling on our next for sure visit. Hopefully we will have the pleasure of having Donavin as our server even though our observation is that all the young people serving are helpful and gracious . Having read about Oiza in the CVLUX magazine, I can honestly say our experience so grandly exceeded our expectations my wife wants to submit her own review! read more

Having an appreciation for all things Japanese, the O-iza advertisement in the CVLUX caught my eye. Yesterday July 12th, was the 47th anniversary of my husband and I having been introduced. We chose to commemorate it by having dinner at O-iza and what a wonderful choice it was! As soon as we entered the restaurant, we were immersed into the a serene and beautiful environment characteristic of the Japanese culture. The young ladies that greeted us and then ushered us to the patio were lovely and gracious. It was then that we met Donavin who became our adept curator for the evening. He effortlessly, patiently and with insight matched our curiosities and tastes to the perfect menu choices. We quickly realized that we were barely scratching the surface of the delightful selections that the menu has to offer. That means we need to return and continue our exploration. Hopefully, we again will have Donavin to guide us. We would like to thank the entire staff for a most pleasurable evening. Nancy M. Ramentas read more

Donovin was a great waiter! He was very helpful, knowledgeable about the menu, and took the time to explain the different options and help me make great food choices! His fun and positive personality added to the experience, and I felt really well taken care of I love taking myself on solo dinner dates, and this is exactly why I enjoy dining alone sometimes. It gives me the chance to fully soak in the experience without any distractions. The food was absolutely delicious, the Sashimi melts in your mouth, just like butter Also knowing the fish comes directly from Japan made it even more special. I had a wonderful time and really appreciated the great service! read more

This was an Anniversary dinner and we have wanted to try this restaurant. It was definitely an experience! We knew that it would be costly but can still be a surprise when the bill arrives, watch out for the drinks We only ordered what we had seen reviewed and listened to our servers recommendations. There are a few things we plan to go back and try though. Based on his recommendation we tried the scallop temaki and it was delicious but we still really want to try the scallop spoons. Everyone talked about the sushi so we tried the house Iza Sake roll, it was good but honestly didn't blow us away. So many reviews told us to splurge on the Wagu A-5 hot rock lettuce wraps. It was fun to have them cooked in front of us and the meat was buttery, I would say to save your money. Let them cook your fried rice in front of you for the ambiance and you get more for less money. It also has Wagu beef. We also tried the bone marrow and we liked it but I do believe it's an acquired taste. We had two mixed drinks the Hibiscus Shoga, very good, but a bit too sweet. Then the Kohahu Carmel Old Fashioned which was a recommendation and we love old fashions. This was good but way too sweet for us. I do recommend the Kurosawa Nigori. We plan to return to try the spoons and seafood risotto and maybe the lobster temaki. Also recommend going earlier than later. We had an 8pm reservation and the grill was cleaned at 9pm so it was a surprise to have the kitchen closed so early. read more

I want to start this off by saying the service was amazing! Came in for a Saturday lunch and it wasn't too busy. Our server checked in on us right away, suggested great dishes, and even gave us a dessert on the house for our anniversary. The martini was pretty strong, and I liked that it came with a shot of sake. The bone marrow was good, but the salmon spoon really took the show. I think I set my expectations too high for the entrees we got--the sea bass with risotto and uni pasta. They were still tasty, just didn't give that wow factor. Because this is on the pricier side, it's a good place for special occasions, though it's casual enough for just a really good meal. read more

The freshest fish in town, there's no competition. Lin's restaurant group really hit this one out of the park, showcasing their appeal towards fine dining. I took my mom here for mother's day/her birthday and had the best time! Our saturday lunch reservation was everything we hoped it to be. The restaurant ambiance was beautiful and peaceful, it's so elegant you'd forget this was a world sports cafe 20 years ago. Spicy tuna, rainbow roll, shrimp, there's something for everyone. Order everything. Leave no crumb uneaten. I can't wait to go back for another special occasion! read more

Can't get enough! Returned this time to try some new bites. Sat on the patio for the first time. Nice and not too loud. Waiter was sweet and took his time explaining menu items and his recommendations. Temaki's were pricey and would pass on some but was nice to try. Harrell platter a must and bone marrow app was amazing. Cocktail 10/10. We love Oiza! read more

The ultimate date and special occasion spot. Always love the vibes when I walk in. I've been there 4x already (3x for dinner, 1x for lunch), and they never disappoint. The servers start off by pouring water over washcloths to wipe your hands when you get seated. The wagyu sando for lunch was just fine. I'd probably get their sushi obento for variety next time for lunch. For dinner, their Duo Delight is so worth it, which is their chef's choice sushi dinner for 2. Definitely a perfect amount of food with beautiful presentation. Their Kagawa Maki roll was tasty also. The Uni Udon Pasta was good if you want something a bit heavier. Think they were going for an uni carbonara type deal. I think it made its way back to the dinner menu after seeing it only on the lunch menu for some time. If you want to go all out for drinks, the Gyokuru Martini, which is essentially like a matcha martini is sooo yum. The Momo Spritz is also tasty, as well as their sours. Will always be willing to return for a special time or when I just want to treat myself! read more

Best Sushi restaurant I've tried in the Fresno Area. The decor and ambiance make the space feel spacious yet private at the same time. Visited with a group of friends and ordered several items to try. Everything was very good. The only downside was that they had limited drink options and didn't have a full bar. We had reservations so we were seated promptly. read more

Incredible experience! We won a gift card to Oiza and had reservations for 2 for me and my wife. We showed up early and were immediately sat. Our server was so kind and patient with us while we figured out what we wanted. we had peach sake and pear sake and they were so good, I had the old fashioned as well it was incredible so sweet with caramel flavor! The table near us were eating things we ourselves were interested in trying and they encouraged us to order it. The vibes were incredible! read more

Everything about this place was a 10/10 It's a higher end sushi restaurant and you can immediately tell by the ambience and presentation. Bone marrow and sushi were phenomenal.

This was my first time eating here with friends, we had a reservation and were welcomed instantly! It was pretty busy but you know that means the food would be good. It was a beautiful restaurant, and I really appreciated the warm hand towels. They have a big menu, and I was a little confused on what each thing was but thankfully I looked up pictures on their Instagram and we were able to figure out what each item was or get a general idea. The wait staff were helpful and the drinks were great. I ordered a sushi roll and a temaki. I decided to try the fatty tuna with the sea urchin and caviar. It was pretty good! I throughly enjoyed my food, the presentation was great and I will definitely be back to try some of their different items. The bone marrow and table side fried rice definitely caught my eye! read more

Our experience at O-iza just blew me away! We went for my birthday and it is a great place to celebrate a special occasion. Our server did forget the birthday parfait, which was a bit disappointing, but we really enjoyed the food!! We sat on the patio and were quite cold even with the fire heaters. It seems like you have to get lucky with the seating and the proximity to the heaters. For appetizers, we ordered the salmon spoons and DIY handroll set. The salmon spoons were crab wrapped in salmon and were very fun to eat. We also enjoyed the DIY handroll set, especially the salmon and tuna portion. The only downside was that it only came with 3 pieces of nori, which we thought wasn't enough. For our entrees, we ordered the uni carbonara, Kagawa Maki roll and the chirashi bowl. We did not love the uni carbonara and the thought it was lacking in flavor. The chirashi bowl on the other hand was phenomenal, with fresh cuts of fish upon a bed of fluffy rice. The Kagawa Maki roll was also delicious and had a great smoky flavor. We also ordered a yuzu margarita- it was refreshing and shaken very well. Looking forward to our next visit! read more

My husband has never gone here and so we decided to go as a family for dinner. So glad it was not a busy day, with no reservation we did a walk-in and was able to be seated in 5 mins. Because we were a walk-in we were told that we were limited to dine for an hour and 30 mins which is more than enough time. Thanks Leo for accommodating. We were seated and served water right away by Mindee and she was super sweet, I really think she has exceptional customer service. Kelly was our server and was pretty efficient and quick. The order: we got the Wagyu fried rice, which was absolutely delicious. It's buttery, has that charred flavor from the hot pot, great flavor. I think anyone who orders this dish will love it. I got the chirashi which I have had before and of course it was super good. The sushi rice below it was well prepared with some furikake flakes. The sashimi were thick pieces and very fresh. My husband wanted something refreshing and Kelly recommended the snow crab salad and it was perfect. The dressing was nice, sweet and citrus. Will definitely order this again. The ambiance is slightly dimmed and noise is moderated. Overall experience was super pleasant. We got in quick, had great customer service, and delicious food. I also appreciate the oral hygiene products offered in the restroom for their customers. read more

Our experience at Oiza was absolutely amazing. My husband took me out to dinner for my birthday . The restaurant is beautifully decorated; however, this time we chose to eat outside, where they have a patio and tables, comfortable and relaxing spot to eat as well. We both had our favorites, the King Salmon roll and the Hibachi Shrimp plate with steamed rice. For drinks, my husband had an Asahi and as for myself, I was very happy to see they had mocktails. I ended up choosing Hana Martini, which has now become my favorite mocktail. It has green tea, passion fruit, hibiscus, and pineapple flavors and it was such a great drink! For dessert, we ordered the taro tiramisu. It was the first time ever trying the dessert and we loved it. We also got a bonus birthday surprise: a birthday matcha parfait with matcha ice cream, matcha pocki sticks, cake, red bran and Frosted Flakes, beautifully presented. We had the best service! Carlye and Jazmine were so helpful, attentive, and made our experience so memorable. We really appreciated and enjoyed the service they provided. We love this place! 5/5 stars :) read more

So excited to finally try out this restaurant! The decor is beautiful. I was immediately greeted with friendly smiles. You get free edamame for the table which had a great spicy garlic seasoning. Our server, Carrie, was very attentive and gave us updates when our dishes would be out soon. What I tried: Furikake bone marrow (5/5): Amazing. A flavor bomb. The chimichurri cuts through the fattiness of the bone marrow and the pickled onions add a nice kick. The milk bread was perfectly toasted and fluffy on the inside. Definitely try this! Pan seared umi scallops (4/5): The scallops were perfect. The prosciutto salad was the perfect accompaniment and so light and fresh. The saffron risotto, however, was not my favorite. Loved that it was loaded with different mushrooms, but it lacked any flavor. Black sesame hazelnut (10/5): This is what I was looking forward to all night! I loveeee anything black sesame, so I made sure to leave room in my stomach! The presentation is beautiful. The black sesame ice cream was sweet and nutty, exactly what I was hoping for. The chocolate covered hazelnut mousse balanced out well with the black sesame. The peanut crumble and shoyu caramel added some saltiness to the sweet. All the flavors just worked so well together. This is a MUST TRY and I will come again just for this! read more

No bar that you can sit at. During business trips this is crucial for places of this caliber. Great food and service but 3 stars for not pricing according to what you get. You pay alot for presentation and not the food. The pricing is what you would pay at a very very high end place. Chances are you will walk out hungry spending 100$. Come here for a date night but not for dinner. read more

First time visit around 1 PM on a Sunday afternoon, and it was not crowded. . . Somehow in my head, I thought it was in the location of 'Nami' restaurant near Woodward Park, but it is located close by to Target in the Riverpark shopping center near the Regal theater. No Teppanyaki, only menu offerings. There are two patios you can choose from, but only TWO tables 'for two' that are more private (which I would have preferred) rather than dining at the long sections of multiple seating offered. Because of the table set up, (which is VERY close to other diners) you can clearly hear conversations on either side of you. . . even when you don't want to. . . and THEY can hear YOU! That was a big minus for me. I felt too confined. Seating was just too close for comfort. :/ The interior is 'airy', peaceful, and pleasing. Low volume music plays in the background. Service is attentive and cheerful. Rose scented, hot steamy towels are offered (to clean your hands after the complementary edamame appetizer) and is a special touch! Guys. Listen to Aunty, impress your 'Gal-Pal' here. Fancy! (WINK-WINK) ;) Everything we ordered was very flavorful, and they have really nailed the sauces! The Shishito pepper appetizer was delicious and the heat level was just medium, so it didn't blow your head off with fire. I recommend it! My main was the KAISEKI SET. For the choice of protein, I went with the beef as the salmon was 'farm raised' vs wild. We ordered the Black Sesame ice cream, dessert and Matcha dessert. The Matcha ice cream was delicious and more like a gelato. Next time, I will omit the 'whipped cream' on that one, as it reminded me of Cool Whip. FYI; for your birthday, they will give you the Matcha ice cream dessert with a little candle on it to celebrate! You DO have to experience it! :) read more

This place overall was a good experience. Our server and their staff were extremely attentive and we were very happy with how we were treated and where we were sat. Noise level wise even with a full house was moderate. The food though was just ok. The steak although cooked to medium rare had no sear and was more fatty than expected... I forget the name of the shrimp dish we ordered but came with mango and such underneath a friend piece of shrimp. Wasn't a fan of that. Edamame was good. The sake I had ordered had what I could not tell to be some sort particles or something from the dish washer when the bottle was washed or something. Didn't complain about it though. Was just doing my best to be mindful of it and just remove anything I had seen. I'd definitely recommend different bottles in the future maybe it was pieces of that? I'll be going back but probably just for a roll or two. read more

Oops, they did it again! The Lin group should pay me at this point LOL love their restaurants! (Kidding, kind of.) Anywho, this review took me a while to write. I've been here twice now. Why not more? Idk, but that needs to change... but, I'm also poor lol. Anyway, I do wish to go more! Here's why: Beautiful restaurant. Nicely decorated. Clean. Super friendly staff. Great food. Both visits have been a year apart. Each time, it was for my birthday celebration. My first visit: super big group of us. What I thought would be just me and 3 other girlfriends turned into a surprise of about 10 others! I don't get surprised much so it's always nice! My second visit: me and one of my good friends, nice one on one time. I've gotta say, they realllllly impressed me the first time. They did a fantastic job with our big group. I don't remember a single bad moment from that night. The staff was very attentive and checked on us quite often... now that is service that deserves a tip (take notes lazy people). They took our orders promptly and got our food & drinks out to us in no time. I enjoyed my second visit just as much of course-- but it was just much more noticeable when we were a big crowd of how excellent the service was. I'm sorry, I can't remember the roll I ordered the first visit but it was something with salmon on top. Plus, the Salmon Spoons (delish) and a margarita x2. My friends all ordered a variety of things and we all just shared a bite here and there. Second visit, I remember a little better because it was this year... we got the Hamachi Ceviche (very good), the Wagyu Fried Rice (good but not my fave-- loved the presentation), the Fujiyama roll, and the Hi Tuna (both good). For dessert, we got the Black Sesame Hazelnut (wanted to love this but i feel the peanut flavor was a little too strong-- I wanted more black sesame). Again, another great presentation of this though... as they poured the caramel over. Next time, I'm going for the Mango. So, yes... The drinks were yummy and the food was delicious. They even gave me a little birthday treat by the end of dinner, both times, and a cute little gift baggie. The corner they are in hasn't been the luckiest of the lot-- but, as long as they keep up the great service and the food quality-- they'll be just fine. Go! read more

Modern Japanese fusion cuisine. The restaurant itself has a nice ambiance. Service is prompt and professional. The wagyu gyoza and hamachi ceviche were good along with the mango panna cotta.

We came here for a little date night and I would say this place is pretty nice. We had a reservation at 7pm on a Saturday night. We came a little early but they told us they had to wait till the exact time to seat us. I wish they sat us earlier but it's okay. We had to wait a little bit. I would say this place does get busy. There wasn't that many seats to sit for waiting but the decor was clean. We got seated and the service was very attentive and fast. Our waitress, Shouana explained us every dish that we ordered and was very pleasant to talk to. We ordered the uni carbonara pasta, kagawa maki roll, salmon spoon roll and matcha parfait for dessert. I like how they bring out hot towelettes to wipe our hands in the beginning. Bathrooms were very nice too with automatic mouthwash and toothpick dispenser. Overall I would recommend anyone to go here. read more

Parking was easy being in a large plaza and the service was great too. This seems like a pricier joint but the lunch specials are nicely priced. They start you with hand towels and a complimentary edamame appetizer that had a flavorful seasoning - stands out as something I might pay for. We were getting a late lunch so we just shared everything. It was all good except for the ebi carbonara - it was much too rich and salty, too much on the parmesan taste profile. We also got the black sesame dessert and what a treat. I also loved that they explain each component of the dishes to you, including dessert. I don't live in the area but I'd search out this place again if I was passing through. read more

Oiza is the answer every time someone asks where to go for a nice dinner in Fresno. I've taken people here multiple times and it has never once let me down. The sushi is beautiful. Not just visually, it actually tastes as good as it looks which isn't always the case. The rolls are creative without being gimmicky and the fish is fresh. The teppanyaki is fun if you want more of an experience, great for groups or dates. Cocktails are solid too. Not an afterthought like at a lot of sushi spots. They clearly put thought into the drink menu. The space feels upscale but not uncomfortable. Like you can dress up or just come after work and both feel fine. Its $$$ so yeah its a splurge, but for Fresno the quality absolutely justifies it. This is the kind of restaurant that makes you feel like you didn't have to drive to the bay for a good meal. Reservation recommended, it gets busy for a reason. read more

This place gives very high end vibes as soon as you walk in. Beautiful ambiance and soft lighting. They give you warm hand towels to start and the service from there was top notch. Our server checked in consistently but unobtrusively and made sure we had refills before we ever ran out. The food presentation was impeccable, and you can tell it's more than just about the taste, which was also top notch. Everything was flavorful and high quality. They give fairly good size portions. It is a bit pricier, but definitely worth the splurge if you want a special dinner out. I like that while they had a lot of sushi rolls, they did have some other non sushi options as well. Glad I tried this place and looking forward to going back! read more

It's pretty good. Some of the experimental/fusiony stuff falls flat (shishitos with corn and cheese?!) and some thigs are very solid (sunomono with tako and chilled shrimp bodies). But! It's soooooooo expensive. I am a spoiled brat who lives right near Ventura in Studio City, LA. Fine. And it is Fresno (not to be mean), so ok. But some of the regular nigiri were misses too. The proportion of rice to fish is off and the rice is too sweet. Uni is a very delicate flavor and a big shiso leaf just overpowers. Service good, place is pretty. Food very expensive and not up to the price tag. read more

Pros: Customer service from hostess, waiters, and service assistants were top notch. The Hibachi Prime Ribeye and Jumbo Shrimp tasted incredible, and yet somehow the vegetables stole the show! The Dragon Roll was good, though my wife would've liked some crab within the roll to take it to the next level. The hazelnut mousse dessert was worth staying for. Cons: We had gotten to our reservation 2 minutes in advance and had to wait 7 minutes past the reservation time for our table to be ready. The paper towel dispenser in the restroom requires extra effort to dispense. Otherwise, we were very happy with our overall experience. Complimentary Salt Sugar Spiced Edamame. The coating when you bite/squeeze the soybeans out is delicious! read more

I've been here twice, both for birthdays. The first time I wasn't super impressed with the food, My 2nd visit was with my fiancé and he loved it. We both enjoyed the food. He ordered the bone marrow and the Kaiseki sets. I ordered the Yasai Maki and the Hibachi Vegetable and baked tofu (vegetarian friendly items on the menu). It would be wonderful if there were more vegetarian options, but any is better than none! The bone marrow and the Yasai Maki were his favorite! Overall, everything was good and he enjoyed his birthday dinner! I also brought a cake for him and they both kindly placed it in the fridge until we were ready for it. Our server was attentive and super nice! She gave us some wonderful cocktails recommendations too! I wish I could remember her name - she also gave him a birthday treat with a matcha parfait! What a nice surprise. Since his birthday dinner, he has been sharing with others how much he enjoyed our visit. The restaurant interior is beautiful and perfect for a special dinner.

Had lunch here on a lovely Thursday. The day was so nice in fact that we could take advantage of their fairly quiet patio area. Inside was very pretty was well, they've really made it a lot nicer than when it was a burger place, but the weather was just too pleasant to stay inside. Our server, Carlye, was wonderful. She was attentive and had no problem answering any questions. Plus she was fun to talk to. Unfortunately, the food was really mediocre. My spouse enjoyed the ebi carbonara, but I thought it was a weird combination that was way too rich. Sadly, the sushi rolls were really bland and had a weird texture, almost grainy? I'm not sure, but I've never had such unsatisfying sushi before except when I was paying way less. The drinks were ok, but very sweet. Definitely not an old fashioned, which primarily highlights the spirit. These just tasted like brown sugar. Overall, it was a really disappointing meal for how overpriced it is. Kind of a shame, since the atmosphere and service were great. I can't say I understand the high yelp rating this place has, but I might be persuaded to try it again, eventually, on the chance they just had an off day. read more

My husband and I came here for our engagement anniversary. The ambiance inside is so pretty and modern. You definitely have to make reservations before coming. The food was amazing. Considering how much we ate, we did not feel full/ stuffy at all which was a plus for us! The roasted bone marrow soup was hearty and delicious. It was the perfect appetizer before digging into our entrees. The combination of the lamb chops, curry, rice and the Asian pear was perfect. I've never tasted something delicious like that with those combinations before. The scallops were tasty although I didn't really care much for the risotto it came with. The fruit infused tea was very good I'd get it again! My husband and I were very satisfied with our overall experience. 10/10 Recommend read more

I was in Fresno to visit my friend from college and she wanted to take me here for my pre-bday celebration. I let her order her usuals: - A-5 Hot Rock: wagu beef that our waitress cooks on a hot plate, and serves over some Bibb lettuce. We asked for medium well, and it was very tender. With some cucumber kimchi as garnish, they were like a healthy version of tacos. - Furikake Bone Marrow: my friend prepared the shokupan bread (Japanese milk bread) with the nori chimichurri spread, then scrape the bone marrow was seasoned with furikake, and topped with pickled onion. Prob one of my fave dishes. - Hamachi ceviche: I love this Japanese style ceviche which includes hamachi fish, avocado, Asian pear, radish, shallots, jalapeño, and seaweed chips in place of tortilla chips. Very tasty spin in my opinion. - Honey wasabi shrimp: tempura fried shrimp with honey wasabi glaze served over sushi rolls. Very filling and huge shrimps. - Spring mix salad: the black sesame dressing with this salad makes it refreshing! For drinks I got the matcha martini, which is different than the ones I've had in Japan. This one is more on the citrusy side. It had some gold flakes in the drink and rimmed with matcha salt. Since it was my birthday they brought out a complimentary matcha icecream that had red bean, cereal flakes, and green tea pocket sticks. They even brought out a little gift bag with a cute card inside. Overall, the staff was very attentive and the aesthetic of the restaurant is beautiful and upscale. I would highly recommend this restaurant for those who love Japanese food and sushi. Their drinks are also to die for. read more
