An underrated gem for the area. Prices are incredible and rolls are consistently well made and generous. Have had maki, nigiri, and sashimi from Oishi and all exceeded expectations. If you like sushi, this a great alternative and worth checking out if you're in the Capital District. read more

Been going here for 3 years and still the best around! Sushi is great, prices are great, parking is ok, bathrooms are fine, service is excellent, and the ambiance is cute, quiet, and quaint. read more

This is a "mom and pop" sushi shop with a focus on take out orders. You can dine in but it feels like a no-nonsense space and the proprietors concentrate their attention to friendly service and efficient, expeditious preparation of familiar Japanese food. While I was there, all of the orders were to go. They were all called in and I was the only one who walked in to order my food. A thing I noticed is that the age tofu (tempura tofu) was served with a little bit of togarashi (chili pepper spice blend) on the top. At other places, the age tofu is sometimes served with bonito flakes and/or daikon oroshi (grated daikon radish). The shop does punch above its weight in the freshness of fish or seafood used in their sushi/sashimi dishes. The sushi and sashimi combo was impressive. The yellowtail (Japanese amberjack) was the standout for me. It had a substantial bite but retained a mild flavor. Next time, I'll call in my order before I drive there. read more

The other day I placed a delivery order, usually General Tso's Chicken and Sushi. Everything was okay, but I think because the chicken was missing the citrus pieces the chicken wasn't as tender and it was fine in the beginning but as it cooled it was just kind of tough, normally I could eat it the next day but it wasn't as good and ended up throwing the chicken out, the leftover rice was still okay to eat. read more

Always so good and fresh. The Alaskan roll is my favorite. Price is fair. It's always ready on time with good customer service. read more

This place is a hidden gem. From the outside Oishi is very unassuming. Inside the food is amazing. The two things that surprised me were the quality and quantity of food. This is the 3rd week in a row my wife and I have gone out for sushi and Oishi blew the other two places away. We ordered the party box #1 and Salmon lover dishes. We have decided the next time we go for sushi we will drive an hour north to go back here. read more

There is a ton of Vegetarian options (even mango sushDelivery and/or pick up is always fast and the service is friendly.

Love this place! It's a great addition to the area and I love that it's a close place to get reasonably priced sushi. I've ordered the party box twice now. Usually I go to an unlimited sushi place when in the mood for sushi but that ends up usually costing us around $65 for two people. From Oishi we've been ordering the party box #2 for $40. The amount of sushi we get with the party box is more than the amount of sushi we'd eat at unlimited and costs less, so it's a great deal. The party box #2 could easily feed 2-4 people depending on how much sushi you can eat. Each roll comes with 6 pieces. In the party box pictured we got the California roll, spicy shrimp roll (x2), spicy crab roll, cucumber roll, sweet potato & avocado roll, super volcano roll, and Tokyo roll (my favorite). I've ordered online both times and the orders have been ready in 15-20 minutes. All in all 5 stars and I have no complaints! read more

Very friendly staff and always top notch sushi. My only complaint is the price going up more than 25% in the last year.

Decent food, great service, and reasonable prices. I order from here about once a month. Best sushi in Scotia, NY!

Small but super affordable sushi spot. The fish was so fresh and the service was super quick and nice. Overall would definitely recommend, especially as a lunch spot for their specials! read more

We started ordering from here for the price but stayed for the high quality food. SO good! Sushi and friend rice are amazing. Everything else we've had is good too but those stand out. They always have good service too! The clear sushi winner in the area. read more

Tiny sushi restaurant in an unassuming building that has seen a lot of turnover. I hope they stick around awhile! Delicious sushi and very reasonable prices. We regularly grab the party platters as dinner for four or five. read more

We have ordered sushi takeout three times since December 2022. All were rather large orders, feeding four to 11 people. All were consistently excellent. A+ all the way! read more

What a surprise! Seriously- in the middle of no where, across the street from a high school, half way between Schenectady and Saratoga I enjoyed my best random lunch in quite some time. Bento Box lunch, dumpling soup to die for and a soda for less than $18. What a treat! A must try! read more

Everything was delicious!! Crab Rangoon was the best I have had. Just enough crab meat and sweet but not too sweet! Ginger dressing was a little thicker and lighter than other places it was delightful! The sushi we had was a Phili roll, tuna and Eel avocado, so fresh and perfectly portioned with each ingredient! DELICIOUS! Also got the shrimp Yakisoba noodles, so good although it could have had more shrimp!! Real Green tea was good and we didn't have any room for dessert so maybe next time!! I will definitely be back! Small inside, but nice, very clean and you can get it to go as well if you didn't want to stay! Debbie was very nice server! All the staff was pleasant! We enjoyed it! Give them a try!! read more

When we got they're it was late and the place was empty. But the waitress was so full of energy and polite super inviting and it was a nice ice breaker. The chef sent us a table app on the house and it was really good. Grilled salmon with eel and spicy mayo. Super devious. Then our orders came and they were beautiful and delicious. Wasabi was super spicy and amazing. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone! read more

You can't go wrong with Oishi! They have a great selection and are quick with their orders. Most recently we order hibachi for takeout and for takeout hibachi, it was excellent. You get a ton of food and it's always delicious and very flavorful. My friends love the sushi "sampler" and you can't beat the price. This little place has done really well - check them out! read more

Had dinner here yesterday. My second visit. I loved this restaurant so much the first time, I brought a friend from NYC who was visiting. As always the staff is friendly, efficient and speedy. The food!!!! Fabulous! My friend commented that if he knew we had such great sushi in Scotia, he would have come here sooner! Oishi is excellent!!!!! read more

First fantastic fast and friendly delivery! Outstanding Sushi! Tempura Shrimp roll, spicy tuna and spicy salmon roll. Like that they offer both 2 and 3-roll dinner options. No need to include small salad (something any Asian restaurants should avoid!). Potstickers were amazing! The lomein, not great but tasted good. There was something different with the flavor. Really not a huge fan. Looking forward to trying more sushi rolls. read more

We've been ordering from this place almost on a weekly basis, the sushi is top notch and very cheap in comparison to all other places upstate. Very friendly staff and never had a messed up order. read more

Food was great , delivery was on time ! We have ordered many times and they are very consistent.

I rarely write reviews but this place knocked it out of the ball park. This was probably some of the best sushi I've ever had. I ordered the Dinner Roll combo and it came with 2 rolls, miso soup, and salad which also had the best tasting dressing I've had compared to other sushi restaurants. The sushi was fresh, flavorful, and filling. I like to try new restaurants and I hardly ever go back to the same place but this will certainly be an exception. I'd also like to mention that I came in a little over an hour before closing and the service was prompt and efficient. Certainly not in the most populated area of Schenectady, but it is definitely a hidden gem. read more

Probably the BEST sushi that I have ever had. Easy to order, fast and at a very reasonable price. Excellent! The only problem is that it's close to my house (across from UAlbany) and I'll be going there a lot!! read more

The lunch bento boxes are awesome. Everything is fresh and authentic. It's a very small place and the food takes some time to come out because they make it fresh. I would recommend read more

Just tried their 3 Roll lunch special and was not disappointed! Everything was ready quickly, and clearly made with quality. They had appetizer & dinner specials that sounded delicious! I will definitely have to come back for dinner sometime! read more

I was in the mood for sushi and a place that delivered. I came across Oishi while going through Yelp. It came quick and was rather tasty.

This is our third time here, and it has been delicious each time. The sushi is great, as are the hibachi dishes! Friendly and speedy service. We definitely recommend it! read more

Got takeout from here for the first time and walked in to find a very pleasant restaurant that I would definitely go for a date night, the new owners remodeled the place and it came great! Now on to the food l; ordered some sushi which was very fresh and tasty along with some of the fried rice and crab rangoons. These are Asian cuisine staples and did not disappoint!! Excellent food and about 3 minutes from my house you can't beat it!! read more

We just left there from having dinner and it was yet again another amazing meal!! The service was awesome and the two girls are so sweet! LOVE this restaurant... read more

Always interested in Asian restaurants to get fresh sushi. This place did not disappoint. They have original sushi combos to die for. Been there 3 times now. Would give it 5 stars but they're still waiting on their alcohol license. Definitely worth the trip read more

I've been going to Oishi since July and love it, the food is delicious, staff friendly and helpful, and contrary to some comments the location is NOT out of the way, right on 147 near to SHS, staff goes out of their way to help you, they make you feel like family. read more

Great job. Simple decor but prices are reasonable and food is delicious. We had the salmon hibachi and the iron noodle soup and shared two rolls (yellow tail and sweet potato). We will definitely be back! read more

Everything we ordered for takeout was delicious, and it was ready in exactly 20 minutes as promised! We ordered several appetizers (edamame, gyoza, crab rangoon) and they were fantastic - especially for the price. We also ordered an eel avocado roll and were pleasantly surprised that we received a bonus sushi roll. Yum! For entrees we ordered sesame chicken and shrimp hibachi. The sesame chicken was perfectly fried and the sauce was delicious. The shrimp hibachi was also very good. The vegetables were cooked perfectly and the sauces were awesome. The noodles that came with it were shared by everyone and were a huge hit. I'm glad we tried a little of everything, and we will definitely be back again! read more

So glad to have a good sushi and Japanese place close by! The food was fresh and delicious, prices very reasonable.
