Gyoza
Debbie W.

We really enjoyed our experience at Yamafuji! First off - don't let the exterior appearance sway you to think twice - because we almost did. The outside needs help and these reviews helped convince us to give it a chance so let this one be another one of those! We were seated far from others in the restaurant which was great to avoid conversations that overlap. The music was at a nice level so you didn't need to yell to talk to people at your table. This is thoughtful of the restaurant staff and I appreciate it! I think our waiters name was Scott. He was a tall, calm soft spoken man who made us feel welcomed and relaxed. Many times at a restaurant it's a quick order and eat experience. Scott, if that's his name, was anything but that. He helped work through the long sushi roll list with us and overall just did a fantastic job. Now for the food - overall amazinggg. The pork gyoza was crispy and huge! My miso soup wasn't what I expected so I wouldn't get that again. But the sushi rolls themselves were great. A little smaller than we are used to back home but still filling. My absolutely favorite was the crunchy California roll (minus the eel sauce). I mean - writing this review and seeing the picture of the roll is making my mouth water it was that good. 10/10 recommend their sush, dining in and enjoying the company you visit with!

Yama Ra myun (Spicy Korean Ramen)

Didn't know this place was here in good ole Fromt Royal. Clean place, music at a good level for conversation. Our server was alone today so she didnt come to check on us while we were eating... this is only a bummer because I ordered the spicy Korean Ramen and oh boy was this spicy. The Ramen was sooo good. My husband ordered the white tuna roll and spicy tuna tempura roll. He loved every bite. The only real downer was the lack of ability to request water and the salad that came with the ramen which was pedestrian. We still plan to come back and try some other items.

Tonkotsu Ramen was subpar. Get the sushi instead.

Quick Tip: Stick with sushi and do takeout/delivery. Sushi is their strength. Tonight I sampled several nigiri, the soft shell crab hand roll, and two flavors of mochi ice cream. The fatty tuna was fantastic and stood out from the rest. Inari is an old favorite that Yamafuji does well, and the bluefin tuna's texture was juuuuuust right. Thought the blue crab was dull; not what I expected. And the surf clam was new for me - a thick, chewy delight. Handroll was good but probably tastes better when dining in (as all fried items do), and the ice cream was meh (neither mango nor red bean tastes like mango or red bean). All in all, this is my go-to for sushi but nothing more - and that's a-okay with me!

Food quality is great and if I lived a little closer i would visit this location more often…read more Service is great, and I love the new location. The interior design is much nicer at the new location.

First of all we couldn't find the restaurant. They have moved down the street to the other side of…read morethe street from a store front location to what looks to be a two story house. The sign was so small you couldn't read it from the road. We had a reservation but they seemed surprised to see us and not ready for a party of 7. However, they quickly recovered and seated us in a back room all to ourselves, which was nice, however, it was one of those 90 degree days and I didn't feel any AC. The furniture was a little hodgepodge and the chairs seemed like something from an old conference room rather than a restaurant. Not very easy to get in and out of. No matter. We got settled in with menus and drink orders taken. I had a chicken teriyaki rice bowl. It was okay nothing outstanding. One lady had a chicken teriyaki noodle bowl. The rest of our group had various rolls. I thought for the price the food was average and a little on the pricey side. The service was good and we did have this little private room to ourselves. Would I go there again? I would but it wouldn't be my first choice. I was really disappointed because I love the charm of Berryville and I was hoping this place would a little gem I had yet to discover. Hopefully it gets better after they settle into their new location.

Osaka's used to be REALLY good back in the late 2000s when we first visited this place and got to…read moreenjoy watching the chefs cook the food. However, in the years since the pandemic, I can't help but feel like the quality of the food's gone down. I'm not sure if the recipe's changed or if they're using different ingredients - but it's just not that good anymore. I recently got the chicken hibachi for their lunch special and immediately, one of the things I first noticed was just how rubbery the chicken pieces were. They also tasted off and not even the yum yum sauce (which I'm pretty sure is different from the one they used to have) could save the taste. They also have a different mushroom soup now that has a lot more spice in it and the taste doesn't match with how it used to be. That being said, I will say that my wife has always enjoyed their sushi here and has never had a complaint on that. Also - the staff here have always been super kind and attentive. We've never had a single issue with the folks that work here. I can't speak of the atmosphere or state of the restaurant since I haven't dined here since 2013. Osaka's is also another staple of Culpeper and frankly - tastes better than Dragon Chef in my opinion. I just wish my recent experiences were as good as my old ones. If nothing else, the staff here are amazing and their sushi is worth coming back here for again and again. Best pricing for their lunch specials!

My family very much enjoyed our food at Osaka! We tried some sushi, hibachi chicken, shrimp, and…read moresteak. The portions are generous and everything we tried was delicious.

The chicken was a bit tough, but overall the…read morefood was decent. * We tried edamame, wings (which unfortunately weren't crunchy at all), a stir fry, and panang curry. * Serving sizes were reasonable for the price, and everything tasted fresh. If you're in the mood for average Thai food, this spot will do the trick. Nothing stood out as exceptional, but it's fine for a casual meal.

A quick seating for a quiet dinner on Valentine's Day…read more The starter - Try Thai Platter consisting of Chicken satay and grilled chicken on a skewer with a delightful peanut butter sauce, steamed dumplings, crunchy rolls, fried pot stickers and fried tofu. Overall the platter was filled with the tasty bites. The fried tofu was the only thing that definitely needed sauce to add any sort of flavor. We also ordered additional crunchy rolls to take home. I ordered the Tom Ka again because it is an amazing soup, again it did not disappoint. Main dishes. She ordered the Crispy duck this time because of my experience the last time. Well...the basil was a bit soggy, the duck was soggy and not at all crispy. She also ordered it three spice which I thought took away from a lot of the flavor. I was going to order the whole Cod but they did not have any on hand so I went with the Thai crab omelette. What a great choice. How they pack so many flavors into the food is beyond me, yes the textures are kind of the same all the way through but even the rice tasted great. If you want to add different levels of heat, ask for the spice tray. The dried spices kind of blew my head off so I stuck with the pickled jalapeño and red pepper spices. They also had a drink special that she had and if you spent over $50 you received a free valentine dessert. Strawberry cheesecake. The drink was made with sweet fresh mango and the cheese cake was well made, creamy and a delightful finish to the meal. Not all pictures have been added as some are the same from the previous review.
