Always a 5 star experience for me. Fresh sushi, friendly staff and service, good prices. You can eat in and there's a small store front parking area or opt for meter and residential parking. Calming music is played inside. Had a dinner party and decided to try the Party C - Party Tray. 10 rolls all together, options of 7 rolls and 3 special rolls with the exception of a handful of rolls from both rolls types. We wanted a mix of everything and it was a home run. All the roles are put together in a plastic tray and decorated with real salad and the plastic decorative greenery. The salmon, crab, tuna, yellowtail, eel, avocado, and shrimp were flavorful, fresh, delicious. There were only 3 pieces of sushi left at the end of the night, everyone enjoyed. The party tray came to just about $72 with tax. Absolutely recommend. read more

I could've sworn I reviewed this place already?! I always stop here for lunch after my massage at heaven foot spa next door. There's plenty of seating but it's always empty, usually just us or 1 other table but they do get a fair amount of takeout. If you are looking for great service, this is definitely NOT the place. The service isn't bad, it's just bare minimum. The specialty rolls are my fave here, that's what I usually get but today I decided to have the lunch special. I had the fish (snapper) katsu box, it was pretty good. The gyozas are really good as well as the grilled mussels. The yellow tail tuna roll was okay, it was too soft for my liking, needs something with a bit of crunch. The plum sake was pretty decent too. read more

I had a sister date but I've been coming for years. I like the food, the only thing is that this time I told them very well done for the beef but it wasn't all the way done. Instead of apologizing for it she told me to heat it up at home lol. It's cool. I just know not to get that again. Besides that everything else was ƙ. The kani salad was okay too. read more

I got the chicken teriyaki lunch special. I guess it's a good price even though there wasn't much chicken! The waitress or part owner is very cold. Zero personality doesn't say thank you throws the plate down. Very poor behavior.! you ask her a question she walks away. I don't know who she is. I guess she was the waitress she should be terminated. read more

Restaurant not well kept Water in bathroom was cold Rude waitress . Threw fork with napkin on table and not near us. Did not give us a plates for the appetizer. When asked threw plate onto table Bill had an over charge of two dollars on the soup. She refused to take off bill and said we looked at the wrong menu . It is the only menu The menu does not state a tip charge of 20% which we were forced to pay and would not leave 20% with such poor service Also no sign or mention about credit card charge but the charge is on the bill read more

I have ordered my sushi platter here and have it delivered to the house before. Tonight is my first time dining in. My husband and I came in with a big group (about 22). We all came from a wake and decided to take a late dinner here. We secured a spot right away. Glad that it was not busy on this Friday evening. I liked how they get ready our table that fast. I am amazed how the server( Tiffany) single handled our group order. The food did not take long too. Once the food was delivered, I do not hear from anyone any error on each order. Our other companions are regulars on this place and she knows exactly how each one's order should be. Amazing memory. It was the first Friday of Lent and everyone seemed happy with the seafood appetizer and seafood dinner box they ordered. I know their sushi comes in fresh all the time and there's no doubt about it. I settled with a seafood udon noodle soup for tonight. With the price, only shrimp is a real thing and the others were imitation. I love the mixed vegetables on my soup. I need to add soy sauce on it though. It maybe not their specialty but a good alternative. We had a good experience during the dining. read more

I love this place! It's such a hidden gem. I've been coming here for over 12 years. I've brought family and friends here countless times. The staff is very friendly! Tiffany is the absolute sweetest and the food is delicious, my go-to is the salmon boy, Phoenix rolls or any 2/3 rolls for the lunch special. Also their fried green tea ice cream is amazing! Your really can't go wrong here. Support your local spots! read more

This is the only restaurant that I have experience that lists a mandatory gratuity of a fixed rate for all patrons regardless of size. Single diners also must pay a computer generated tip which is on the food bill. This is outrageous. Will not return. read more

Overall: 4/5 Speed: 5/5 Value: 4/5 Portion: 5/5 Taste: 3.8/5 Ambience: 3.5/5 I am katsudon fanatic so I ordered to go online. Turns out they offer free delivery for over $15 too. I was pleasantly surprised with the portion size! They used a large tupperware and it was packed full of meat with a layer of fried egg and veggies on top. I feel like traditionally I've gotten the egg mixed in with the meat in the past and flavor was a bit off from my expectation. I would get delivery in the future because of the good portion size. read more

Osaka - Japanese Near Me - Oakland Gardens, New York

The food is good but for a small party of 2 they included 18% gratuity on the bill. I realize that last time I double tipped because I didn't notice. There is no reason to include the gratuity on the bill for only 2 people! I would gladly leave 20 instead of 18 but I hate places that do this. It forces you to either cross out the tip line or leave too much. Because of this I will never be going back. read more

I've been here for dine in just once since their lunch special was lower than most Japanese restaurants I know but have gotten take out a few times. They have lots of seats inside and it's always fairly empty. I've gotten their party platters, bento boxes and udon before. It's good for a quick meal or a quick sushi fix but it's not very authentic and the quality isn't the best. read more

Dear Osaka, My boyfriend and I used to love coming here in high school (6-7!! years ago) because it is a good deal for the money. I now order take-out from here occasionally. I usually order the 3 roll lunch special, sometimes the lunch sashimi. The quality is okay, the rolls haven't really changed in the last few years. Although not the prettiest, it does still taste good. This time, I ordered the sashimi deluxe which is said to come with 20 pieces of sashimi. It came with 19, which isn't a big deal but considering each a la carte sashimi is ~3$ please be considerate and double check. Also, it was 90+ degrees outside today, but please be careful with your deliveries because warm raw fish, warm sushi, warm salad is not good. I put it in the fridge at the moment, but I was disappointed with this experience. Thank you. read more

Service was good and food was great - ordered few rolls and chicken teriyaki box. Little surprised to see 18% gratuity added for a party of 3 and after paying with a credit card, the tip was blank - anyone who doesn't really look at their bill would have tipped again. Overall, had a good experience but check your check. read more

This sushi place is close to my house andI recently ordered here for pick up. I had a craving for sushi rolls on a hot day. I ordered a yellowtail jalapeño appetizer, soft shell crab appetizer, spicy salmon and spicy tuna rolls. My fiancee ordered a yellowtail roll and a Philadelphia roll. Both my appetizers hit the spot! Yellowtail jalapeño is one of my favorites and the crunchy soft shell crab satisfied my tastebuds for something fried. Although I would have preferred my yellowtail jalapeño app colder but this might have to do with me walking to pick it up my food on a warm day while walking my dog. In the end, I was full and happy! read more

The one positive thing I have to say is that Osaka's special rolls are good butttt this is the 3rd or 4th time I have come to Osaka and I always expect their spicy rolls to be good and they just aren't. They always have a VERY mushy consistency and there is a very strong after taste of mayonnaise. The rolls are not satisfying unfortunately and left my fiancé and I literally looking in our fridge for last nights leftovers. read more

Will definitely visit/order again. read more

Wonderful, little gem in Queens for sushi. Always treated well and the food is quite yummy. Whenever I have a craving, it is my go to spot.

I was in the area and needed a bite to eat. Seeing that I am a big Japanese cuisine fan and this place has relatively good reviews, I decided to give it a try. The place was easy to locate and has a small parking lot shared with the other stores in a small strip mall setting but don't plan on getting a spot. It's a small lot and a lot of stores in the area, so you may be able to find some parking a bit away, like let's say a block away. The place was cozy, a lot of customers were already there so I guess they can get a bit busy. I was quickly seated by the hostess and immediately given a menu. It was a bit on the noisy side though, I don't know if their guests are normally that noisy but I could barely hear myself think. Simple solution seeing that I was solo, headphones, Iphone, and Netflix. My waiter took my order, which was the Chicken Katsu lunch box, quickly. I didn't wait for my food for long, like the average cooking time you could say which is around 15-20 minutes. It was so beautifully plated that I had the urge to take a photo of it, but I controlled that annoying impulse and gave in to my hunger instead. Everything was well flavored, I really enjoyed it. The miso soup was very tasty and savory, not at all watered down. The Katsu was nice and crispy as well as moist in the inside (just right, I hate dried out chicken). I loved the salad, fresh and crispy, with a nice tangy dressing. The California roll was good (I have tasted better) and well made. They gave me some fruit as a complimentary dessert to help clean the palette as well. Pretty good spot overall. Decent portion size, flavorful, cooked well, and fast, what more can I ask for. Check this spot out if you are in the area and in the mood for some decent Japanese food. read more

Before my wife and I moved into Little Neck, Queens, we have never heard of Osaka before and it wasn't till the day we decided to order in that we realize crap, there were not too many good Japanese cuisine options around our area! So we decided to go for the best one rated on Yelp- Osaka I had only gotten delivery from this place so this review will be based only on the food and delivery experience. We ordered the Alaska Roll, Eel Avocado Roll, Spider Roll and an order of the Sashimi Regular combo. The order took about an hour from when it was ordered to delivered. I guess it wasn't too bad since we probably a good 15 minutes' drive from the actual restaurant. The delivery guy didn't ask for extra tip and politely handed me the food. I immediately opened up the sashimi combo, it was filled with 3 different types of fish (very generous amount)- Tuna, Salmon and yellowtail. I tried the yellowtail first since I don't think I had too many fresh yellowtails before. The yellowtail was AMAZING!!!! You can taste the freshness even if you never had sashimi before! And the tiny bite size scallion complimented the fish so well! Just perfect! After that I know I'm in good hands, it can only get better from this point and I was RIGHT! The salmon and tuna were both extremely fresh, melts in your mouth good, make sure don't waste good fish in wasabi, just a little bit (very little) of soy sauce will do! The Alaska Roll was just as amazing since the salmon was so fresh! It was very clean tasting along with the cucumber in it. The Eel avocado roll was average, it wasn't bad but just couldn't outshine the extremely fresh Salmon/Tuna/ Yellowtail. On the other hand, I do appreciate the Spider Roll very much. The soft shell crabs here are made to order, you can tell because it's not rock hard when you bite into it unlike a lot of other places. It's very flavorful and not drowned in eel sauce so definitely a plus! Prices are great! The regular rolls are around $5 each and special rolls are around $8- $10. The sashimi combo came out to be $16 but it is worth every penny! Who would have ever guessed that there is such an awesome sushi place in the Oakland Garden area in Queens? Not me, but thank you Osaka for making me a believer! I will be back again!! read more

So, I believe this is probably part of a chain of sushi restaurants. It is a good restaurant with a nice relaxing Sushi Restaurant Style decor: Shiny wood floors with pictures of Old Timey Japanese outfitted persons on the wall and colorful lanterns above the sushi bar. The bathroom was very clean and wheelchair accessible. The Rolls were fresh and standard. I've tried my favourite Dragon Roll ($8.95) . It was good but not special. I've tried their Ginza Roll ($7.00)and K2 Lobster Roll ($12.50) which were both good but not spectacular. Pricing is reasonable and rather standard so I do not feel strongly about giving this place a 4 star which means above average. If the price was cheaper, then I would say, yeah, 4 stars because the quality is more than the cost. Everything is very very standard, good but standard. read more

I live near Osaka, so I usually order takeout. I ordered delivery once, but they took a little longer than I'd like and since it's so close, I prefer to pick up. They have their own parking lot, so picking up is never an issue. They also have a nice website where you can just order everything online, without even having to call up. The sushi is pretty good and descent price. If you're getting dinner, a dinner box is the way to go. It comes with a soup, salad and a complete meal. It's a pretty good deal for under $15. read more

Tastes good and affordable. Will come back :) read more

Excellent! I've been here several times over the past few years; it's really close to where my mom lives and it's our go-to sushi place. The fish is always fresh and they have solid cooked food (for the stepdad that doesn't do raw...he gets a hibachi platter that's stacked with generous portions of shrimp, steak and veggies...plus a side of fried rice...and soup...). Last night I kept it simple - a little bit of sashimi and a few rolls to share - salmon/avocado, salmon/mango and asparagus. The pieces are pretty big but the ratio of rice is nice - not too much like a lot of sushi places. The service is always extremely friendly; there are a couple of girls that give my mom a hug when she walks in. It's really cute. I'm sure I'll be back there again...we eat there every time I visit. read more

Dining in is alright. It's always hard to get the server's attention. Place isn't even that big. The wait time for food is a bit longer than usual because they're making your food at the sushi bar. The few times I've been there, the food wasn't so consistent. Had a bad experience once with stale tempura in my sushi. Not good. But usually, the food's good. The portion of the dishes are great for the price. I ordered party platters...and they were delicious!! Other than the 1 bad time and the wait time on the food for dine-in, I'm happy with this place. read more

Went on A Sunday afternoon it was pretty dead. My friend had their teriyaki chicken box & I order the spicy crab roll. The crab rolls were good. Her box came with California rolls. They tasted like avocado more than anything. It overpowered the whole roll. Then we finished it off with the golden dream roll which is topped with mango. That one was good. Would I return to this place? Honestly no. I would get it as a quick take out since I live near it. read more

The sushi and food here is absolutely delicious. When I come here I always order the California rolls and they are always so fresh. I got the chicken teriyaki a few times and it's just okay... Chicken is kind of hard and needs more flavor. I do wish they had sesame chicken on the menu. Other than that it's a very good Restauraunt and the service is very fast. read more
