    Tuna was the main craving of the evening.
    Matt G.

    Osaka sushi is a new restaurant in Whitehouse that replaces the hibachi restaurant that previously occupied the venue. The space itself looks to be redone and is much nicer than I remember it being previously. Though knowing the restaurant is supposed to be Japanese and hearing exclusively Chinese music playing for ambiance, did throw into question the authenticity. The service itself was good and the sushi was arranged and presented in a well-decorated display on the plate. The quality of the sushi itself, I would call above average. It certainly hits the spot if you're craving sushi. Though, if you're not into raw fish, you'll find the selection is a bit more sparse. The staple hibachi dishes are here (which again throws into question it's Japanese authenticity) and some lighter fare like negamaki. However, my wife was less than satisfied with those options. Ultimately, this is a great option for sushi if you're local to the area, but I wouldn't say it's worth going out of your way to seek out. Though, comparitively to the AYCE options nearby (as far as Somerville), it's certainly superior.

    Updating my review. -1 star due to lack of decent service. Came here for dinner. Stood in front of the front desk waiting to be acknowledged for about 15-20 minutes. Lady was on the phone so I didn't say anything, thinking she will acknowledge us and tell us the wait time once she's off the phone, but when got off the phone, she not only didn't acknowledge us, she just walked away. When she came back, still nothing - didn't even look at us. We were in front of the front desk! Multiple servers also kept passing us by and didn't even pause to check if someone already spoke with us. I would recommend the workers of the establishment to acknowledge your customers. Even if you are busy, it does not take long to say 'welcome, it will just be a few minutes until we get a table ready'. I'm only dropping 1 star because food was still good.

    Sushi was delicious! Presented beautifully. Did not feel rushed, server was pleasant and attentive. Clean and beautiful inside.

    Spicy Tuna Roll and firecracker roll

    I did not enjoy my meal. I found the sushi to be lack luster and even with a simple roll such as spicy tuna, the flavors could have been better.

    More than sushi! I usually get the kitchen prepared hibachi. It's really good. The meat is always tender and tasty. Add a side of the best fried rice around. The vegetables are delicious, as is the soup and salad with their terrific ginger dressing. This place is not the former restaurant and owner, so don't be fooled by what it used to be. I skip the not so good Chinese restaurants in the area and come here. So much better. Give them a try, I think you'll like it! I can't comment on the sushi, not my thing. Service and ambiance is always good.

    Sushi and sashimi special for two.
    david c.

    Great service and the sushi was delicious. The sushi and sashimi platter for two was bountiful. See the attached picture.

    They didn't clean the shrimp so unfortunately there was poop in my dinner tonight. Sushi place that doesn't prepare their seafood correctly isn't just nasty but unsafe.

    Avocado Roll and Spicy Tuna Roll

    Great. Osaka is a fresh take on Japanese cuisine that differs slightly from the previous restaurant that was in this space, "Yi En". The hibachi room has been completely sealed off, and they're heavily focused on sushi, hence, "Osaka Sushi". Bathrooms- 10/10 Food- 9.5/10 Service- 10/10 Attentive waitresses, great sushi, good noodles.

Menu was limited for events which is fine, our party leader pre-ordered for all tables. I don't eat sushi / shellfish so unfortunately I can't comment on that part of the meal. We had chicken lettuce wraps, spring rolls & calamari for apps (sorry forgot to take pix). For hot items we had shrimp fried rice, Thai basil shrimp, sesame chicken & pepper beef (allegedly made with filet mignon). Main comments are on the chicken & beef. Sesame chicken was hit or miss with tender or very chewy. Same for lettuce wraps. Beef was cooked well done (which is a shame if it was filet) & also had chewy pieces. Flavor was good however. Sushi eaters seemed to enjoy that but both shrimp dishes weren't finished. Other main comment is we had booths on one side, wooden chairs on the other at our tables. I sat in a chair which became very uncomfortable after a short time. Bummer as the place itself is modern & inviting. Finally, service for our party was good, didn't see any issues.

What you wont find - tikka masalas, daals, vindaloos, kormas, naans and the like. What you WILL find is a much more expansive fusion menu with dishes you may not have seen elsewhere. Plenty of parking as this is in a newer strip mall. Lots of seating and quick service- our server was great at suggesting options as well. Baby Corn Pepper Fry- This was good, was hoping it was a dry dish as all the other corn dishes indicated sauce and this one didnt- but still was coated in a sauce. Corn was a little on the softer side but packed flavor. Schezwan Paneer (using their spelling) - Slightly crisp triangles of paneer that packed a punch with spice Gobi Manchurian Dry- while ours mistakenly came out with gravy they were quick to correct it. Hot and crispy with a flavorful sauce but by now all the flavor profiles were blending. Chili Hakka Noodles - I loved the smokiness but by now couldn't handle the spice. Wife's fav. Everything is spice forward- which tends to blur the flavor profiles after a bit. Still the servings are such that it's best to order a few diff things for everyone to try. White rice is optional and may help soothe some of the kick

    Just to note, I ordered from Uber Eats, so can't speak on service or vibe. We got the Hakka chili…read morenoodles (mild) (2/5), plain Hakka noodles (4.5/5), dragon chicken (4/5), Hakka chili chicken (1/5), and Hakka rice (1/5). I'm desi and used to spice, but this was honestly inedible. Whole chopped chilies everywhere and the heat was so intense you couldn't even taste the flavors in the food. The only decent thing was the dragon chicken, which probably would've been good in person, but it was soggy by the time it got to us. Overall, hard miss sadly.

But it is also tasty, has online ordering that you can do before the commute, and gets the basics right. The service is also friendly and unforced. The general manager, Mason, noticed that my mother and I had not ordered drinks, so he presented us with water cups once we motioned towards the dine-in tables. They are happy to take orders verbally, but there's also a kiosk for punching in your order. (I always prefer verbal; my job has enough apps in it for a day!)

The food was a bit pricey for the portion. Next time I'll try it as dine-in to see if there is any difference. Overall it was ok, will try again.
