Ordered Omakase (for 2). Everything came at the same time Have had better quality sashimi & hand rolls elsewhere outside of Japan, Michelin listed or not. Still good to have a beef-free meal here in BA though Beware of "Otoshi-Cubierto", which is a service charge per person that they will put on the bill. read more

First time we've ever ordered Omakase and had all the courses dumped at one time. Worst than that 80 % of the courses contained salmon. What a joke!!! Salmon sashimi. Salmon roll, salmon tiradito, and a couple of pieces of white fish and octopus. Wow this is what the chef chose??? More likely this is what the chef dumped. What a shame! read more

This might be the most expensive Japanese I had ever had, even compare to Japan and New York. I had two appetizers that cost around $80, my jaw dropped when I see the price tag. The food is ok, fish is fresh and the nigiri taste good but not wow if you had other Omakase before. The seafood on the scallop shell is more for show with flame in the middle. The place is very nicely decorated and service is good and fast my server also bar tender is very nice and helpful. But I would not come here for sushi. It's just way over priced. read more

This was one of my favorite meals in Buenos Aires. The restaurant is classy with dim lighting and really gives strong date night vibes. We started off with some cocktails that packed a punch. Everything we tried had amazing flavors. We especially enjoyed the Inca, wagyu and crispy rice nigiris. Our favorite role was the Nikkei- we actually loved it so much that we ordered another one. My husband was a fan of the Inca gyoza. The servers are super knowledgeable about every item on the menu and take their time explaining the dishes when delivering them- including the order in which they should be eaten. The prices are definitely on the higher side in comparison to other restaurants in the area but the quality makes the food well worth it. read more

Love this place! Fresh fish artfully displayed. Japanese beer, and local varieties. We ordered the Peruvian trio to start with, it came with sides of squared sweet potato, toasted corn, toasted quinoa, and toasted sesame. It was a salmon, a white fish and a shrimp. They were lemony, sweet, and spicy, respectively. Then we ordered a few assortments of half rolls, I told them about my gluten problem and they modified some of the rolls and made suggestions for others. Everything was fresh and delicious. read more

Excellent service and high end interior decoration but very expensive for what you get. Osaka gives the impression of a Japanese sushi restaurant but there is no Japanese service. I could not find even a single asian working there. I was told this was a "fusion" restaurant with a Peruvian influence. Hence, a variety of ceviche is offered. My bill came to more than $500 US. In the US or Japan I would be accustomed to paying that at a higher end sushi restaurant. The variety of seafood and taste would far better as the best sea food is air flown from Tokyo. Here the seafood seems to be limited to salmon and bass. My overall impression of the food is nothing special for a restaurant that would be easily one of the most expensive in Buenos Aires. I would think eating at a high end steak house such as Don Julio would be a bargain. read more

We had an incredible meal here and I'd strongly recommend it when in Buenos Aires. 7 ppl for a business dinner after a Lonnie day of meetings...the waiter suggested that they just bring out a number of apps/dishes that we could all l share/taste. What incredible good that was so thoughtfully presented. Just look at thE pics... read more

Who would have expected to find great sushi in Buenos Aires? Not me, but it seems the land of beef has great sushi. I ate here 3 times in 4 days. And yes, from the Wagyu hot rock to the Sake, Crispy Rice, etc - it's just well done. See you soon Osaka. read more

Osaka - Very. Very. Good. - Nikkei Near Me - Buenos Aires, C

Disappointed with what almost seem like dishonest behavior to me but perhaps this is how things are done at fine dining restaurants in BA. When we ordered soft drinks and sparkling water, the waiters are great at CONSTANTLY refilling our glasses with the bottles of soft drinks THEN bringing new bottles over to the table (with the cap already removed) WITHOUT asking first so we end up realizing we've spent 750 pesos on COKE at the end of a lunch between 3 people when the bill arrives. To put this in more perspective, the average price of our entrees is 882 pesos so 750 for COKE is dumb. Fueling my annoyance for this is that they were slow when it comes to EVERYTHING ELSE, like clearing our empty plates, bringing us our bill, and refilling the hot water for my teapot (maybe because they know they can't charge me more for it?!) They serve each person a tiny appetizer (diced pork on a fried slice of banana. Size perspective: the banana chip is the size of an American quarter so you can imagine how much pork actually fit on it) upon sitting down and you think "oh that's so sweet!" Until you realize you're charged 130 pesos per piece on your bill! Wtf, had I known this wasn't a freebie from the chef, I would have declined it. Oh wait, you CANNOT decline it because once again they don't ask you! Folks who are visiting from places with a lot of Japanese restaurants, this place will surely disappoint. The sushi is maybe just 1 star above Costco sushi. I had high hopes that it'll be good Japanese food with a South American twist and I was dying for some Asian food after a week of eating steaks, pizza and empanadas. But this place left me wishing I had just crossed the bridge over to Mercado San Telmo and stuck with some local cuisine. Osaka, you need to up your game with your food (maybe start with the basics and get your sushi rice right) AND ALSO stop trying to rip people off with 130 peso appetizers and 125 peso soft drink refills. :( read more

Everything was excellent: food, service, decor. I took one star off because of the prices, but if you live in dollars (or any other well-doing currency), it won't be such a punch to your wallet given Argentina's economy right now (Dec 2018), but it's still is a luxury restaurant. For 5 people with no alcoholic drinks, we paid $300 usd. We were 5 and got the omakaze for 4 (it's offered for 2 or 4), plus a few other dishes. The omakaze comes all at once in a big plate, which I really liked because we didn't have to wait between each dish, like it typically happens with omakazes. My favorites were the rolls with eel on top, the sushi with salmon and (I think) truffle on top (see picture for both, included in omakaze), and a roll with salmon and avocado and a sort of spicy mayo that was not included in omakaze. read more

Food, service and ambiance were all very good. Ate on the patio outside for lunch which created a free atmosphere

We've been to the Osaka in Miami and I must say this Osaka in Buenos Aires is wat better. The flavors and the portions are crazy. Service was really good. Good amazing. Atmosphere is low light and quaint. read more

We went to both the Osaka in Buenos Aires and in Lima, Peru. The environment was incredible- very tropical and peaceful at the Lima location and it was very good in Buenos Aires. The food was all amazing! We didn't get anything that was not great. Overall the food is fantastic! We liked the Lima location better but they were both great. I would recommend Osaka to everyone! read more

Buena comida. Un poco cara. Tardaron con las bebidas. Amable atención. Muy oscuro adentro. Naturalmente algo de calor en la terraza.

This restaurant's decor is nice, but the food is very expensive and the service way too slow. I got the "Niku truffle", which had wagyu beef and tasted excellent, but cost almost $12 for 2 small pieces (about the size of eel sushi) ; the "Sea grill" had shrimp, mussels, clams, tiny scallops, and mushrooms - there was a lot of sand in this dish, I expected better for $28 USD. One bowl of white rice cost $6.50 USD - outrageous! They also had a "cover charge" of 95 pesos, about $3 USD, which included a few pieces of calamari - the $3 is not a huge deal since the calamari tasted great, but I think that should have been written somewhere. The waiter took so long for everything, over 15 minutes before clearing my plates even though I was clearly done (I pushed my plates all the way to the side of the table) ; Getting the check took about 20 minutes.. since it was taking so long, I went to the restroom, they finally brought the check, but they had also removed my water, which was annoying since wanted to finish it before leaving. I would not come back to this restaurant, rather try other restaurants... read more

We came to this restaurant this evening after seeing that on Google, it had such great reviews (574, 4.5 stars on google). What we actually experienced was far from that, and I'll tell you why. I'll give this place some credit. The interior decor is very intricately designed. But thats the only positive thing I have to say about this restaurant. After placing our orders, we found that for sushi rolls, it took only 10 minutes for them to prepare, but for appetizers and main courses, we had to wait 2 hours! The food is extremely low quality even for an "asian fusion" restaurant, not to mention the extremely small portions. They also give out this octopus dish that they made seem was complimentary (like bread), but then later found out that we were charged for it even though we didn't order it. Terrible food, terrible service, and yet thats not the worst of it. The worst of it came when we were ready to pay for our meal. Upon taking our check the waiter notified us twice that "the tip is not included in the bill." Okay, makes sense, but not sure why we had to be reminded of that twice. Maybe he was upset that the customers at a table next to us gave him a bad tip after being served cold food twice in a row for their appetizer and main course. When he came back, he looked into my eyes very sternly and reminded me "just remember, the tip is NOT included in the bill." Immediately turned off by this, we vowed never to come back to this restaurant, and became more motivated to notify the community of our experience here. I won't tell you whether or not I recommend eating here, all I want to do is tell my story and let you make a more informed decision. read more

OK, so a few things about Osaka. The whole reservation thing in Buenos Aires is out of control. Plenty of empty seats yet they wont seat you so I went to the Sushi bar instead. Cut me some slack please!! The salmon skin (piel crocante, salsa tare, negi y sal) was soo good... my favorite. I wish I ordered more. Igot a vew other rolls and they were ok. I tend to be more of a sushi traditionalist. I dont like fusion or other meddling because i have yet to have a roll that elevated sushi by incorporating the fusion of regional foods with sushi. dont mess with my sushi! I dont mean to scare you away. Osaka was a nice place and depending on what you like this may be your dream spot. As always, read the menu closely and have some fun. Bon provecho read more

Food was good and ingredients tasted really fresh. However... The place was too dark, not enough light; hard to see the menu and i prefer seeing what i am eating. Prices for sushi rolls were ok, but $12 for miso soup and $6 bottled water without gas are too much. Service was ok, attentive but a bit slow. read more

Osaka - Nikkei Near Me - Buenos Aires, C

This is honestly my favorite restaurant in the whole world. It's absolutely delicious. The best Peruvian sushi fusion I've ever had.

Osaka has very good reviews and I can now agree! I started with the Seaweed / Cucumber Salad which was very refreshing and then the Classico Cerviche "Leche de Tigre" which was as delicious as some of the cerviches i've had in Peru. Finished with the Scallops Parmesiano which I wished were a little more blackened but never the less very tasty. I ate at the bar which was a true experience as the staff was very friendly and are true mixologists allowing me to sample some of their creations. Highly recommend if interested in taking a beef break!!! read more

This is my favorite restaurant this trip. Every dish we had was interesting, innovative and delicious. The atmosphere is dark with ambient lighting which really makes its romantic. This is the first Japanese Peruvian fusion restaurant I've been to and it made a tasty blend. It was a bit slow on a Monday at 8pm I think most people would come later on weekend. Definitely make a stop here, you won't be disappointed. read more

Excellent meal and a great flavorful alternative to the near every night adado meats of Argentina. Enjoyed the food and service! Must have the marrisico en fuego- literally clam oyster calimari scampi Type mix served in a half shell and set on fire! Spicy shrimp and sushi rolls amazed us. We found the shellfish served on the hot fumiaki stone to be over priced for what you get and the ceviche was high quality but not the experience they suggested- hated the mango civic he! Drinks were very high priced. *Caution- if offered to sit on the terrace- it is uneventful, insect heavy, poorly lit, and full smoking- stay inside and enjoy air conditioning and the interior Asian flair decor. I am rating a solid four- a bit off the por and not attractive curb appeal and some higher pricing for a few if the less than extraordinary items holds off the fifth star. Go tapas style. Try the small dishes and enjoy with great friends!! read more

The food is average and it is slow too get it ready. The ambience is nice and looks upscale, however , i was surprise with the poor quality of service by the waiter. I Wish i could eat somewhere else yesterday. The problem started when we did get appetizer that we did not order. We did not make a big deal about it since we realized it after we tried the menu ( we thought it was some kind of in house menu they want to promote or so). Then, when they deliver the soup, it was cold soup not even warm and we mentioned to the waiter about it and they indeed changed the soup. However, when the main dish came , It was another cold dish. We were wondering how come they didnot pay any attention after noticing our first complain about the cold soup. I definitely will not recommend this establishment. read more

This place was recommended by the concierge at the Four Seasons. What a complete let down! The service was horrific. When we arrived, the place had plenty of tables available (we had reservations anyway) yet we were asked to sit at the bar and were told that they would let us know when our table was ready. The bartender was very friendly & the drinks were good but they never came to get us for our table. We had to ask to be seated. Once seated, we sat and waited. And waited. We watched as two tables were seated next to us. They were served drinks, given menus and they ordered drinks & appetizers. We had no menus, no water & no server. We asked to see our server yet no one came. We were beyond annoyed. Needless to say, we left. read more

Good seafood, sushi and ceviche. Lots of variety but the ceviche flavors don't really live up to the billing. I had the yellow tail which was good but not great. Atmosphere was really cool and the deserts were good. Certainly a fun place to go out for something different in BA read more
