We were looking for someplace to eat on Easter. I've been craving Asian/ sushi and got it met here. I got the unagi bento box. I love unagi and this did not disappoint. It came with miso soup, unagi over rice, a pot sticker, veggie tempura, a shrimp tempura and edamame I was full at the end of the meal. My husband got the special cluck cluck bowl, which had spicy chili chicken, chicken fried rice and miso soup, he also got a taro bubble tea. The chicken was very flavorful with a mild heat to it. We were very satisfied with our meal choice, one of the top two meals over our weekend away. read more

The servers DO NOT get tips. The owners take all of the tips! This is misleading. When I tip, I expect it to go to the server, not the owners who I do not even see during my dining experience. The food is good but the shady business practices are not worth it for me. As someone who works as a server at a different restaurant, I'm honestly appalled and feel so bad for the servers! read more

Went here for a quick lunch and was pleasantly surprised to find a Korean restaurant that also serves sushi. Authentic and delicious. The dolsot bibimbap came out hot and sizzling. Everything prepared was authentic and delicious and their sunny side up egg was perfectly cooked. I also tried an appetizer that was crispy and well flavored. The Nikojume tempura was better than expected with a crispy outer coating revealing mushroom, cream cheese and crab salad with a drizzle of eel sauce. Savory, crunchy and sweet. Well worth the $8. My meal came to $26 plus tip. Pricy for lunch, but still pleased with my meal. Definitely check out Oppa if you're in the area for take out or dine in. It has cute decoration, casual dining and the service was the right amount of attentive. My water was never empty and my check was brought at the right time and settled quickly so I could return to work. Kamsamnida! read more

Oppa has been on our list of Korean restaurants to try. It is actually a sushi restaurant with some Korean dishes on the menu. We came in during lunch time and it was not too busy. It is definitely a mom and pop type feel - the servers were also the ones preparing the food, from what I could tell. Since it was not too busy, we were greeted promptly and our food came out pretty quick. We tried the appetizer - Nikojume Tempura. It was deep fried mushrooms stuffed with spicy crab salad, cream cheese, and eel sauce. It was a heavy dish and very rich in flavors. I liked it but it was very filling before the main dish. We tried some Korean dishes - Bulgogi and Japchae. Both were very good with generous portions. Sadly, they do not do banchan (shared small dishes that come with most Korean meals). We truly enjoyed our dining experience at Oppa. They have ample parking. The restaurant is very clean. Staff was friendly and attentive. I would not say it's the best Korean food in Grand Rapids but it was still worthy of 4 stars. We will definitely try to come back and try some of their sushi rolls! read more

I'd heard about Oppa Sushi & Korean before but don't really get up to Alpine that often. Nate and I were in the area recently and decided to stop in for a light lunch. We were welcomed right away when we walked in. The menu includes quite a bit of sushi and a handful of Korean dishes. I love Korean food and make it often at home, so I'm always excited to try Korean food at restaurants. I wish they had even more Korean options, but we were happy to order their tteokbokki (Korean rice cakes) and hoe dup bap (a rice bowl with mixed greens and raw fish). We also got a spicy scallop roll to try some of their sushi. The hoe dup bap came with a cup of miso soup that was hot and very salty. It warmed me up on the chilly winter day. The tteokbokki was a nice portion with plenty of sauce. It's not a super spicy dish but it does have a bit of a kick to it. The tteokbokki were perfectly chewy and delicious. The hoe dup bap was my favorite - the fish was very fresh and so tasty, and I liked the sauce that you can drizzle on and mix it up. It felt like a healthy, delicious option, and it was a generous portion. I'd definitely order this again. Unfortunately the spicy scallop roll fell short for me - the rice was a bit hard, but the chopped scallops themselves were tasty. This is a roll I don't see often but it's one of my favorites. I'm really glad we finally got to try Oppa Sushi & Korean and would come back to try other items and definitely get the hoe dup bap again, as it's not a dish I've seen often at places around town. read more

This was some of the best sushi I have had. They put little unique touches in even the most predictable rolls. The service was fast but not rushed. It was a great experience while we were visiting Michigan. Just make sure you get the right address, our gos sent us to another location down the road where there was a sign, but no restaurant. read more

Excellent food and quick service. The house salad with their real ginger dressing was delicious. I enjoyed the dolsot bibimbop. High quality ingredients and service. read more

The food is always amazing, the owners are incredibly nice, and it's a nice place to either dine in or take out. This restaurant has become my "go to" place. You really should give it a try. I'll not spend my money at any restaurant that isn't locally owned. read more

I ordered Soondubu /seafood And there was only 1 piece of mussel and 2 tiny pieces of octopus. It was 95% tofu and veggies. So I ask the lady ( might be the owner) Is this normal? The answer is... "if you don't like it then don't order it. No one ever complained." Aka fuck off. Great way to run the business. And yup never ever coming back 17$ wasted read more

The food was spectacular and as we are plant-based we ordered all vegan options. The owners were exceptionally accommodating. The dumplings steamed were phenomenal as were all tofu dishes including a tofu fried rice (not on menu) that they prepared for us. The vegetable sushi rolls were beautiful and fresh. Absolutely delicious and we will be regulars! I'll include photos next time - the meal was savored. read more

Really nice little Sushi Korean place in North Grand Rapids area. Lots of love and care put into these meals. Jammed on Wednesday Night. Randomly. I tried the Spicy Pork Bulgogi. Spicy yes. Huge. Could have fed two to three. At least two people. This is their key stone menu item. Wow. I also got the Crunch Munch Roll. Shrimp tempura, crab salad, with spicy shrimp topper and sweet and spicy sauce plus tempura crunchies. So perfect. I will say it was spicy. Not wimpy spicy. Just right. Salad with homemade ginger dressing came with Bulgogi I would recommend this restaurant as a hidden gem. read more

I have tried this place a couple of times. The sushi is good and the service is fine. It's a great place for lunch.

Only been here once, got tteokbokki, I think a veg sushi roll, and sweet coffee. Anyplace that offers sweet coffee, I will get it and be happy. Roll was decent, but not so memorable compared to the tteokbokki, which I had a great first experience with. (Couldn't finish the whole dish by myself in one sitting, so I took some home) The place had a very cute and comfortable atmosphere, and I would like to go again sometime and try some of their other food options. read more

The service & food quality is always amazing, definitely a hidden gem in the Grand Rapids area. The hometown "mom & pop" type vibes is just one reason why I've been coming back to for the past 5+ years.

Food was excellent. Got a steamed shrimp goyoza, kimchi pancake, firefighter sushi roll, salad, miso soup, and bulgogi split between two. Everything tasted great. Seems made from scratch and very solid. I would definitely repeat if I lived in the area. Service was fine, whatever. Floors were sticky, ew. Definitely recommend regardless. read more

We are visiting for a few weeks and have eaten here twice already. The owners are super friendly and their staff are as well. The first time I can I got the TTEOKBOKKI (spicy rice cakes) and the next time I got the sushi crunch burrito.. both were very good and not the spot. Their hot green tea is also very good here. My daughter always gets the same thing (basically a veggie roll with cream cheese) and she said it's really fresh and her favorite anywhere we've been before. They also play music from popular K-dramas which truly makes dining here a delightful experience for us as we try to guess which shows we've heard the songs on. Our visit to Michigan has been impacted so positively by eating here, no doubt we will continue to visit while we are in town. read more

The Korean food is average at best. The flavors miss the mark. The soup doesn't have a real base, just spiciness. They also do not give you any side dishes which is odd for a Korean place. A couple items were also not available. The sushi was alright. The wait is long and service is short and curt. read more

i visited oppa sushi after a long time! i love salmon nigiri and it really hit the spot. i also got the lemonade and it's GOOD. the staff gave me a refill without me asking and i was happily surprised. i just wasn't expecting a refill for whatever reason haha. the new location is much more spacious and has a good amount of seating. read more

The food came out faster than I've ever seen at a sushi restaurant. The quality was high and prices were fair. The Korean bul go go bento box was also delicious and came with a healthy portion of tempura shrimp and vegetables. This is a family run business and they were super friendly. I also loved that before I even sat down (and while I was in the bathroom) they let my 7 year old daughter order $18 of sushi rolls independently. Sushi is her favorite food and she says she wants them to close and relocate to Chicago (so she can be a repeat customer). read more

Saranghae Oppa Sushi & Korean! This local mom 'n pop deserves all the love and support from the community! I have been here a handful of times during the lunch afternoons and it has not disappoint me. Being a Cali girl, my standards for Asian and Korean food are high :) but I evaluate restaurants and businesses in their context. If you are looking for fancy, upscale Korean, this is NOT the joint for ya. However, if you are craving a comforting, familyesque place, Oppa is IT! The exterior is unassuming with two signs indicating it's presence in the plaza construction area. It's the last restaurant located on the strip and as you enter, it's like going into Ajumma's home. The interior and ambiance are simple and homey. There are cute signs around indicating a few of their specials including the crab rangoons and boba! There is probably no more than 15ish tables. It's a straightforward place that focuses on the food while not being unbearably dirty or gross. Crab Rangoon is a MUST ORDER! 6 pieces for $6 is very reasonable, and these aren't your dinky rangoons either. It's filled with considerable amount of cream cheese and imitation crab, comes out piping hot since they make it from scratch in-house! I also LOVE the Soft Shell Crab Roll aka Spider Roll. It's also affordable at $7, best deal in town! The Bento Boxes and Bibimbap are also solid. Lots of foods and I can barely finish it in one sitting. Also tried the Tempura Udon, good hot eat for a cold day but it was mildly too salty for me. There's also other appetizers, burritos, rice dishes, lots of sushi to check out too! Lastly, they offer three boba drinks-- errbody, this ain't a boba tea joint (: I enjoy it as a sweet dessert drink. Boba is chewy mushy, and the drinks are super sweet. If I wanted legit milk tea, I'd go to Ding Tea or Kung Fu Tea. So you already know this lol Service is homely and wonderful again. It's a family-owned shop, and the husband (owner and chef) and wife (front house/server) tag team. Again, they're not a Michelin restaurant nor do they pretend to be. Just be courteous and you'll be just fine! Enjoy this hidden gem, Oppa; I'm excited for more people to discover them as they deserve all the good vibes and support! read more

My husband and I were pretty excited to discover this place since it's not very far from our house, and we love sushi and Korean food. We finally tried it for the first time tonight and were not disappointed! We never knew it was there as it's located in a little strip mall on Alpine that we drive past but have never really looked to see what's there. Now I know, and everyone else should too! We both love sushi, but didn't want to go all out on sushi since there are other places in town we already go to for that. But we were curious enough to order a couple basic rolls. I got a spicy California roll and he got spicy tuna. I'm not sure my California roll was actually spicy, but it was fine for a basic roll. I added some furikake seasoning at home just to give it a little punch. My husband's spicy tuna roll was also good, though the ratio was a little low fish to rice. Good on flavors though! My husband ordered the spicy bulgogi pork as his main dish. It was very spicy! Thankfully it comes with a healthy portion of rice to mix in and tone it down a little. It wasn't horribly overpowering though; the kind of spice that is addicting and you just can't stop eating it! He ate nearly the whole thing before packing the rest up for leftovers. I had the shrimp yakisoba for my main dish. I was quite happy with it! The shrimp did have tails on, which I don't love so I did cut them off. But it was nice to see the shrimp had been deveined. The sauce on the noodles was really nice, and there was a decent amount of vegetables (I like mine super veggie-heavy). I would order this dish again, but would maybe try with chicken or tofu next. Overall we were really happy with our dinner! There are a lot more menu items that we want to try, and I think it's going to take a couple times to figure out what our go-to dishes are. I'm happy to put in the research to figure it out! read more

This is a review for the Korean food (not Japanese side of the menu). I know I shouldn't have had high hopes for the Korean food given that they predominately do Japanese, but I just love it and wanted to see if this place would be an option besides going to Seoul Market cafe... Sundubu jigae is how I personally judge every Korean restaurant. This was seafood sundubu and it came with 2 mussels. That was it for seafood which is pitiful. It also interestingly had caramelized onions and a tomato in it which I've never seen before... overall, not great. My husband's dol sot bibimbap was actually good/on par with most Korean restaurants, so that was a pleasant surprise and the only thing boosting the ratings. Here's the worst part though: despite ordering Korean food, they do not serve banchan!! So you're paying the same prices or more than most Korean restaurants and don't get banchan. My husband's bibimbap came with a salad, but they told me that mine didn't come with the salad despite the menu suggesting it would. Overall, disappointing for Korean food, so just stick to the Japanese food that everyone seems to enjoy! read more

I came here to eat a late lunch/early dinner with my boyfriend on a Sunday. All the staff was wearing a mask, and half the tables for dine in were available, and there were a few other tables filled. Everyone working there was very friendly and helpful, even the chef stopped by each table to check in on how the food was. We ordered the agedashi tofu which came in a deliciously sweet and salty ponzu sauce. For entrees we got two of the specials - Japchae and Tteukguk. Japchae is a stir fry with potato noodles, veggies, and beef, and per the chef is usually eaten at parties. The Tteukguk is a Korean rice cake soup which had potato, beef, veggies, dumplings, which was perfect for the cold fall day! Also learned that this dish is usually made for the New Year. My boyfriend also ordered the Laba roll (shrimp tempura, spicy crab salad, salmon). We finished all the food! (And then had food comas) Meal for two for all the above was around $50. read more

Sushi was fresh, delicious bulgogi beef and tempura vegetables. We really enjoyed our lunch.

Went today and the lady completely ignored my entire order, and acknowledged it when I said it. Was with my sister and she ordered and got hers and I waited for 30 mins and still didn't get my order. Very rude and unfriendly. Food is great, staff not so much. read more

Came here with the wife for dinner the other night - food was pretty good, although some of it was a little expensive. I ordered a California Roll and the wife ordered a Tempura Shrimp Roll, along with Soondubu and Spicy Pork Bulgogi. Miso soup came out with the wife's meal and the broth looked rich. Sushi was good, although it wasn't anything out of the ordinary. Soondubu was pretty good too, although it needed a little less sesame oil. All in all, we'd definitely come back if we're in the area and looking for Korean food. Good service and authentic cooking make for a great experience! P.S. - Family owned, it sounded like the daughter was serving us and the mom was in the back cooking. Also, sodas are "by the can", not fountain. Just something to keep in mind. read more

Oppa! Oppa! Love the name and the meaning behind the restaurant. I've recently began traveling for work to Comstock Park, and drive by this small restaurant everyday. Yesterday for lunch I was able to enjoy a traditional Korean dish called Japchae - it consists of glass noddles, an assortment of vegetables and meat that are delicately marinated in sesame oil. My husband, who's a Korean food enthusiast enjoyed the Oppa sushi roll and the Jjampong spicy seafood noodle soup. All three dishes, though different, were mouth-watering and gave us a small glimpse of the rich cuisine Korea has to offer. There is a small capacity, but that can easily be disregarded as Oppa is full of life and full of flavor! They do take out as well. Despite only being able to stay for a short while, the staff was welcoming and fast with their service. I hope to see Oppa expand and welcome other traditional dishes. read more

I love this place, food is always amazing. Doesn't matter what I get, I'm haven't been disappointed yet. Bulgogi - , Kimchi - , Miso - love in a bowl. I dropped in today specifically for their Kimchi, always nice and strong. Today's batch felt a little extra spicy which, let me tell you, I ain't complainin'! I was greeted with a warm welcome and as soon as I asked for kimchi the man (I didn't catch his name) started towards the back to get my order up. Quickly my order was back with a smile and I was on way. Is a little small so if you intend on dining in get there early, but they do offer carryout order as well. read more
