Osaka literally never misses. My friends and I ordered literally SO much food from Osaka for pickup and every single item was delicious. We got the Crab Puffs, 49er Roll, a few Ichi Ban Maki Rolls, a few Crunchy Munchy Rolls, a Lion King Roll, a Philadelphia Roll, Miso Soup, and some more but you get the point. The food was ready quite promptly for pickup despite the extremely large order and it being a packed Saturday afternoon. Everything was perfect. The food that was hot stayed hot, the chilled dishes stayed cold. Every single thing tasted great. I was especially impressed with the Crab Puffs. They were completely stuffed with the filling (which I definitely can't say the same about from other restaurants)! They provided a ton of chop sticks and soy sauce packets which is much appreciated. This is my favorite casual sushi place in the valley! read more

Jumped in hungry and rolled out happy! This spot is definitely a returner on my list. We were greeted within seconds of walking in and seated right away. The restaurant was busy but the staff were still engaging with everyone. We sat down in a corner booth and were immediately welcomed with requests for drink orders. The place was well lit and decorated with a warm and welcoming feel! We ordered four rolls and chicken katsu. Each roll was better than the next! We couldn't decide which one was our favorite so we scarfed them all down as fast as we could to indulge in the amazing flavors! I would say I leaned most towards the Crunchy Munchy roll! This place really "rolled" its place into our hearts! read more

This place is okay. The food is good for the price. The fried chicken potstickers are really good. So is the mochi.

I have to say "I AM IMPRESSED WITH THIS SUSHI RESTAURANT". The price didn't break the bank and the quality of food we ordered was exceptional. Fresh made sushi, the miso soup was soothing and the way it should be. Some restaurant offer the miso soup that's over salted. Professional and courteous customer service. We will definitely coming back when the sushi crave hits. Quality of food: A+++ Quality of service: A++ Price: Reasonable. read more

We were planning on going to a sushi place down the road, but for some reason it was closed. The universe was telling us to go somewhere else and I am so happy we did! It's a cute place with plenty of seating! Amazing rolls. Amazing service. Stayed past close on accident (so sorry!!) & they were still so sweet and understanding. Crunchy munchy - huge with yummy fried onions and big pieces of scallops Monster roll Red dragon Ninja roll but with crab salad instead of crab sticks. We loved the whole experience. We even stayed late a bit past their hours cause we weren't paying attention and then staff was sooo sweet. I would definitely come back when I'm in the area. Give this place a try! read more

Osaka Sushi - Modesto, CA I've found my new go-to sushi spot in Modesto! Osaka Sushi completely blew me away -- especially with the Texas Roll. If you're into bold flavor, this roll is it. Perfectly crispy, a little spicy, and packed with flavor in every bite. I honestly could have ordered two just for myself! The spicy garlic edamame deserves its own round of applause. It's the perfect appetizer -- tossed in a savory garlic sauce with just enough kick to wake up your taste buds. We were fighting over the last pods at the table! I also ordered the veggie tempura, and it was super light and crispy -- not overly greasy like at some places. You could tell the veggies were fresh, and the tempura batter was perfectly golden. read more

I used to have their CA Rolls delivered and thought they were good. But dining in was a better experience. Service was fast and friendly. Menus were huge and impressive. Terriyaki ribeyes were inhaled by me and my husband. My son loved his Kamikaze roll and everything on our table. We also shared a Rainbow Roll and Spicy CA Rolls. My sister loved her ramen and had plenty of leftovers to take home. Fried Tempura ice cream was amazing and tasted like a delicate deep fried donut. Scrumptious!! We'll definitely come back and try their family specials. read more

Came here on the 14th of February at 2 pm. We missed the lunch crowd and there were plenty of tables open so we didn't have to wait. Osaka has been around for over a decade and I know that there has been an ownership change maybe once or twice since it's been here. The menu is nice that there's a lot of photos with their items so no need to be surprised by what you get. With a plethora of Japanese restaurants in Modesto than when I first moved to Modesto in 2003, Osaka isn't my fav Japanese place but sometimes we like a change of taste. When it came to a late lunch, my wife ordered the Salmon Teriyaki with tempura and I initially wanted the chicken teriyaki bento box but the waitress said, sorry but because it's Valentine's Day, we don't have that available. OkkkKkk.... So if that isn't available, why doesn't Osaka have a Valentine's Day lunch plate special? It seems like a cop out when other restaurants would have a Valentine's Day menu to order. To me, that was a turn off but I didn't complain. There was an older gentleman who came later than us, who wanted to order the lunch plate menu and when he was told it's not available, he spent several minutes saying to the waitress that he saw the menu, which they did give (same as us). He left when it wasn't offered. Smart old man. lol I got the chicken teriyaki with tempura along with spicy girl roll. This chicken teriyaki was okay. Their teriyaki sauce is poured separately and is one of the worse sauces out there . It was very watery, it didn't stick to the chicken compared to other restaurantsz The tempura shrimp and vegetables isn't my fav. It's very thick and coated. Easy to get full with so much breading. The spicy girl was awful. It's suppose to be a California roll topped with spicy tuna along with roasted almonds and sriracha sauce. I've ordered this before and I enjoyed it but this just didn't taste right. The spicy tuna looked like it was tomato paste on top I ate two and my wife ate one and it was enough that we really didn't enjoy it. Also, the waitress who was suppose to bring our food to our table gave my chicken teriyaki plate to a table that came after us. The waitress realized she messed up because they had ordered two chicken teriyaki but the other plate in her hand was my wife's salmon teriyaki. So she gave my plate to the other table, came to ours to give my wife's plate. Then I had to wait several minutes to get my chicken teriyaki dinner. This place isn't like it was before. Won't be coming back for a long time. read more

This place is very busy. Readily accessible from a main street, you can see how many cars are parked and estimate how many people are in there. But people would rather queue than go to a different place. I haven't tried any other sushi places here in Modesto but I'd say this one is decent. The sushi's are fresh. But coming from an Asian, the rice is not very consistent at times. I actually love their uni's when they're available, as well as the unagi. As I said, it can be busy and so noise level can be up there also at times. Its casual. Good for family and friends. But can also be a date spot if you're craving for sushi. read more

We ordered 8 sushi rolls and not a single one was labeled on the boxes. We were also missing 2 rolls when we got our order. When we went back to pick up the missing sushi that we paid for we asked if they could label them next time. They said that we had to ask for that while getting laughed at by an employee. We will not be returning here. read more

This is our go to. When we travel to Modesto this is our spot. Our whole family has they're favs. The food is fresh and the service is good. The ambiance is relaxed but clean. I have a pretty sensitive belly so when eating out I pay close attention to how I feel afterwards. I have never gotten ill after eating here. 10 years in the making it our whole family's go to. We plan our couple hour trip around the days they are open. We love Osaka! read more

When we arrived, we were seated right away. Staff was friendly. But shortly after the place started to get a little busier and despite being very friendly, our server was stretched thin and wasn't able to get to us for things like refills, additional sides, the check, etc- but staff was still very nice. We ordered a bunch of food to try out. The edamame was nothing special. The mussels were good. The dragon roll was nicely presented, but their beef steak plate and the seafood teppanyaki plate weren't anything special. The seafood platter had no flavor, and appeared to mostly be artificial seafood except the mussels and baby shrimp. It lacked flavor. It came on a sizzling hot plate but the food was nowhere near sizzling hot. Oysters were good. Otherwise the place is a decent size with its own parking lot which is nice. But I probably won't be returning here again. Next day we did end up having GI issues. read more

Excellent sushi and service. I usually get delivery from here about once a week and they're the only ones that get it right. First, the sushi is delicious and very fresh. I ordered the Sushi and Sashimi dinner this time. This comes with slices of sashimi, some nigiri and a tuna roll. Check the pic out. It also comes with a salad and a cup of miso. Everything is always perfect! They even included chopsticks, wasabi and soy packets. Other restaurants always forget those for whatever reason. They even give you a little solo cup for you wasabi and soy. I also ordered the Shrimp Tempura which I've never had before. It was excellent! I obviously will order here again. read more

Osaka Sushi - I cannot remember all of the names, the furthest one in the photo was a Las Vegas roll. (Fam favorite) - Japanese Near Me - Modesto, California

Food is amazing and delicious. Both dining in and dining out has been a great experience. They even allowed me to bring my service dog inside and accommodated us in a corner where no one else was bothered by it. This was huge for us. We started dining out since we understand its not always going to work out w my service pet inside....and I have to say: they pack the food so professional, never have forgotten anything! Im so impressed. Great service, great food. Definitely a regular customer here. Side note: we tried Fumi Sushi and Osaka wins by far. Fumi isnt ventilated well so you end up coming home smelling like heavy soy sauce. Plus, their bar area get rowdy, waitresses are a little too flirty and doesnt feel as family friendly. read more

You can't go wrong at Osaka Sushi. I have eaten here for lunch about five times and the food is consistently good. I always love the pot of hot tea and the wait staff are friendly and helpful.

Out of town and visiting a friend for lunch, he knew I love sushi and recommended this place, and boy am I glad he did. Didn't wait that long for a table, customer service Wa a pretty friendly. Wound up ordering the Chirashi Don, which is assorted fish over sushi grade rice topped with fish eggs. The cuts of fish were thick and so flavorful! I absolutely devoured this bowl and loved every moment of it. There was only one thing I didn't care for in the bowl, the veggie in the top left of my photo, but I would for sure order this again in a heartbeat. Next time I'm in town and craving sushi, I know just where to tell my friend to take me. read more

Having been coming here for years & still my favorite sushi spot! My favorite roll is the Domo Roll since there's nothing raw. can never go wrong with tempura asparagus... my kids love this and they don't like veggies. Hubby got the red dragon roll & the Japanese nachos... he enjoyed them. Atmosphere is always lively since it's usually packed. Service was fast and staff is always pleasant. It was around 4:30 when we arrived just before peak dinner time so we were able to get seated right away. My family's go-to for eating out! read more

My go to sushi restaurant in Modesto. Their rolls are always very flavorful and nicely portioned. Their miso soup and spicy edamame are staples here, as well. Whether we take it to go, or eat in, the service I have received is great, and the quality of food does not change. Sometimes a restaurant is good when you eat in, but their quality declines when you get food to go... that is not the case here! read more

Osaka provided friendly but slow service. The restaurant was pretty nice but smelled strongly cleaning chemicals. Kind of a turn off when you want fresh sushi. Turns out the food was not that great. We ordered an assortment of rolls, tempura, teriyaki, and some sushi. The teriyaki was extremely bland even after adding sauce while it was on the skillet. The udon was extremely salty and had a lot of non-traditional ingredients. The tempura appears to be premade? The sushi and rolls were on par with most local sushi places. The crunchy munch was a pretty good roll and my salmon rolls were done very neat and well portioned. read more

It was very okay. I will not be returning, but I've had worse. The server was kind but not terribly attentive. The nigiri was extremely hard to bite through - I think that's due to the cut of it. It was okay, but there's several other sushi places in Modesto that are much tastier. It was not expensive which is nice. read more

So although I tried this spot and left a review in 2008 stating I would not be returning, I did in fact, 16 years later, return. When you first walk in, you get a whiff of... old musty wet towels or mold or maybe just an old building that recently had a wet dog visiting. I could not figure out which of the three I was smelling but right off the bat, I was already regretting the second chance. If I hadn't already agreed to meet a girlfriend here, I would have just walked out. The server was very nice and attentive. I ordered the spicy tuna Jalepeno poppers and added cream cheese to the top, and although they look great in the photo, they were just "ok". Not much flavor and they texture was soggy but I did eat all 5 so they weren't "that bad". I can't remember which roll I ended up ordering because none of them really stood out to me but I do remember substituting the walnuts for almonds and adding cream cheese. I wasn't a fan of their pink sauce which is basically garlic mayo but not as good and the roll just didn't taste fresh. Overall, another disappointing visit but you know what they say, fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me. read more

I ordered delivery lunch at work from osaka and my family was so jealous, I took them back for dinner. The firecracker roll is one of the best sushi rolls I have ever had, definitely recommend. We also had teriyaki roll (wouldn't recommend if you do not like mushrooms) but i thought it was tastey, the red dragon was delicious, and for lunch had the rock and roll and spicy edemame which were good as well. Also, the restaurant was super busy on a Friday dinner but the serve held it down and was attentive and kind. Definitely cannot wait to go back and try more food. read more

I have been going to Osaka Sushi for many years now and have witnessed many changes since they have changed ownership, mostly good. But Friday my wife and I personally experienced something which may change my mind of ever going to this place again. We had gone there for lunch, and were waiting to be seated. I am handicapped and need a cane for support. There were no seats available so my wife and I stood there while we waited our turn for a table. It should be noted that several staff members saw my condition and didn't offer a seat or a chair while waiting for a table. Our turn came up for the next table but the worker, a white male, approx mid to late 20's, short hair, clean shaven, looked at us but instead of taking us to our table, picked out a couple he knew and sat them down, leaving us to wait for another table. The couple he sat down was obviously familiar to him and he chose to sit down a much younger couple than a handicapped senior couple. Needless to say, this did not sit well with me or my wife, and instead of voicing my displeasure, chose to leave and go elsewhere. The Osaka I knew from many years ago would NOT have treated us in such a rude manner. This experience has definitely changed whether we will ever go there again. read more

I forgot to take pictures since it was takeout. Although the service was fast and the food was amazing! I've had the issue of ordering something as basic as a California roll and it not be good. I was thrilled when I was able to finally eat a California roll that tastes amazing. I also had the Las Vegas roll, crunchy munchy roll, and the dragon roll. All were amazing and I will definitely be recommending this place to friends and family. read more
