    To go order. Sushi was very fresh. The side order of noodles, were amazing. I almost want to gate keep this place because it's that good. Definitely going to order again!

    My suggested we go here for lunch to get their bento boxes. She ordered a shrimp bento box and I got a salmon teriyaki bento box. Overall the experience at Osaka was perfect. It's a nice, small restaurant, not too busy, very quiet, with fast friendly service and good food. Osaka was perfect to catch up with a friend over a quick lunch.

    We were amazed at the portions and the price. Hidden gem. We had the Pad Tai and Veggies Tempura. Veggies tempura came with a side of fried rice and salad. Service was awesome. Ambiance was quiet and reserve. Great for a date night.

    Lunch was tasty today. We had the orange chicken, sweet and sour pork, the pork dumplings, calamari, edamame and 4 rolls the volcano, the love on the beach, the cherry blossom (favorite) and the golden dragon. Only thing that could have been better was havimg all the items come out at the same time but really wasn't a big deal Would recommend and would go again!

    The rest of the frozen flavored sweet and sour chicken that we fed to the dogs.

    Let's cut to the chase: quite possibly the WORST food, of any kind, anywhere on the planet. I could give -5 stars, I would. We ordered sweet and sour chicken and shrimp hibachi. Both with fried rice and salad. This was a to go order. When we got there we should've known something was wrong when there wasn't a single soul in the restaurant. Got it home, popped the lids off and the shrimp hibachi had a horrible fishy smell. The shrimp were like rubber and NOT fresh. The sweet and sour chicken tasted like it had been frozen. And how is it possible to screw up fried rice so it has NO FLAVOR AT ALL?? When you can't eat food without a clothes pin on your nose, there's a problem. We gave it to the dogs.

    Good service. They are very fast. Quality is good but not the best sushi. I had the spicy tempura roll and it seemed liked smashed up tuna/salmon and way too much tempura around it.

    The best part of the meal was the miso soup. Water tastes like it came from an old kitchen sink, and to be honest- when my sweet and sour chicken came out, I thought they were bringing me mini corn dogs. What little chicken was in the odd breading itself had no flavor and was mostly uncooked breading with a crispy outside. Ended up not eating the meal.

    Osaka never disappoints

    They did a great job modifying my dish to fit my dietary restrictions. It tasted great and I didn't get a gluten reaction from it.

    The best thing they do is sushi! The rest is pretty good too, but I don't recommend the hibachi grill items or curry items. Service ok.

    This is my favorite place in Gallatin! Fresh, healthy, delicious food. The restaurant is always…read moreclean and the staff is always friendly. Once, my toddler was coloring with the crayons they provide and drew on the wall. I felt horrible and they were so kind and told me not to worry about it. I like to get the Vui bowl with chicken, but I've had almost everything on the menu and have liked everything. When we have visitors from out of town, this is where we take them. They have something for everyone--even my vegan sister! Their kids menu is also good, and kids are 1/2 price on Tuesdays. Additionally, they are willing to resolve issues. I once purchased a gift card online thinking it applied for a promo. When it didn't, I called and was contacted by their head of marketing. He made things right by adding extra rewards to my account. They supporting this small, local chain! It is my family's go-to for a healthy dinner on busy week nights when we don't have time to make dinner at home.

    Before you, gentle reader, dive into this review, let me reassure you that I am more demanding than…read moremost in my expectations of Viet cuisine. I have first hand experience with a large variety of Viet dishes from Saigon, Thu Duc and Vung Tau, RVN whilst I was deployed at Long Binh Jail. That being said, I am a SoCal transplant and used to what I have considered to be among the BEST Viet dishes I have eaten anywhere. The basis of any decent phó is the broth. Normally, the broth is prepared 6-8 hours before the first bowl is prepared and served. Th broth at Vui had no depth or complexity; it is just broth. The noodles, veggies and meat (beef in our case) were already in the bowl when brought to us, not on a plate to be mixed into the broth. We also had their goi cuon, called summer rolls. They were meh. All in all, the phó was adequate to satisfy my craving, but nowhere near what I've come to expect. I have found 3 Viet restaurants in west Nashville that are worth the drive.
