    Craving sushi and this one pop up on my list to try. It's a good thing I came here with my party because it was delicious. I highly recommend this place. Servers are friendly and nice. Interior is well designed. Food is also highly prep for presentation. But when you eat it's a "WOW" kind of dish. Check out my pics and what I ord

    My boyfriend and I have come here consistently for the past two years and it has NEVER missed. I love sushi and I've tried most of the sushi places in Modesto but Osaka is hands down the best in my opinion. The quality of the food is amazing the ambience is very peaceful and pleasant. I must say though, the best part of this restaurant is how you are treated when you come here. All of the servers are great and very attentive but the sushi chefs are some of the sweetest people and they are so hard working and are clearly very good at what they do. I think everyone deserves a little Osaka in their life :)

    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!

    Fast service, friendly staff and sushi was pretty decent quality. Good spot to check out for your sushi cravings in Modesto !

    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.

    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!

    California roll, Texas roll, miso soup, spicy edamame, Philadelphia, spicy tuna roll, vegetable tempura

    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.

    10/10000 one of the best sushi places in the Central Valley, I always have great service, highly recommend.

    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.

    The food was great. We came for my Birthday dinner. We had calamari, miso soup, salad, cherishi Don, red dragon roll,and rainbow roll. Our waitress was awesome as well. We love this place and will be back for another special occasion.

    Spicy girl - awful.  The spicy tuna looked like it was tomato paste in texture

    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.

    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.

    We stopped in the other day and Brandon was our server. Wow, he was so professional, knowledgeable, and super friendly. The food was consistently fresh and delicious! We can't wait to go back and have the whole experience again!

    Do they have real crab to substitute in rolls?

    Nobody answers the phone are they open or not?

    Yes .. just went last night

    Do they have happy hour?

    Sorry. But every time there is happy. Nice folks and excellent sushi.

    Can someone tell me the 'Happy Hour' details please? For food/alcohol and whatever else haha. Thank you?

    As of 5/17/18 they do not have a Happy Hour. They don't need one. This place is so good it always has a steady clientele. There is a discount if you pay cash, but must ask prior to placing order.

    Food is excellent Service has always been awesome for us…read moreAmbiance is fantastic I love the Pineapple Margarita !!!

    Sushi restaurant or a nightclub?…read more My friend and I decided to go for a night out Downtown. When we arrived at about 7:00pm, we were told there would be about an hour wait. Despite this long wait, there were actually quite a few empty tables, but was overall still very busy. When you put yourself on the waitlist, they notify you through text when your table is ready. This gave us ample time to walk around Downtown while we waited. When we received the table-ready text (just short of an hour later), we were sat quickly in a nice U-shaped booth. This seating arrangement felt a bit awkward for a party of two, especially if you are sharing food. The booth is too big to be sitting close enough to reach but too small to not feel awkward. It is perfect for people watching though since the booths face the entire restaurant. By this time, the restaurant was completely packed, with just about every booth, table, and barstool occupied. Our waiter came quickly to take our drink orders. We got a Cucumber Martini and an Espresso Martini. The Cucumber Martini was incredibly light and refreshing. The Espresso Martini was not impressive. It didn't have a strong espresso flavor and was rather watery, but still alright. This is the type of restaurant, that especially on busy nights like this where they don't accept reservations, you should allocate a lot of time for the dinner service for. There is a significant time gap between each time the waiter comes around to take your order. There was probably 15-20 minutes between placing our drink, appetizer, and meal orders. This was not a problem for us, but if you are eating here before making a show at the Gallo Center, this may be something to consider. For our appetizer, we ordered the Salmon Ceviche. It was insanely good. It was subtly spicy and citrusy. The chips that came with it were light and not oily at all. I wish the portion was larger because the two of us swallowed it up in just a few bites. For our entree, we got the Salmon Tataki and Goodi Rolls to split. They were both very good and came out on a lovely platter. They tasted very fresh and high quality. The prices here are on the higher side but is nice for a special occasion or splurge. Our server was very attentive and checked on us often. He was super friendly too. The restaurant was super lively. They were playing club music which was totally a vibe. It looked like this was the spot people hit before going out for the night. I noticed they were accommodating for both small and large parties, serving both rather quickly. I'll be back!

Came here on a Wednesday at 1 pm and there were tables available. It was 3 of us (wife joined for lunch), we all ordered the chicken teriyaki lunch plate. I have to tell you that it took way longer to get our meals than expected especially when it was not that busy. I only had an hour lunch (1-2pm) and it was close to 1:35 pm when we all got our order. I didn't look at when we placed our order but it was around 1 pm since we got there at 12:50 pm When I ate the chicken teriyaki it was literally cold. Not hot.. not even warm. It was likely sitting in the kitchen for minutes while waiting for some other item to be cooked (my guess was the tempura). I asked my wife and my cousin if their chicken was cold also and they confirmed it so. Also since I've being nitpicky, the 4 California roll that came with our lunch plate had avocado turning brown and very little of the crab meat on there. Pretty sad that the new owners have made the place go downhill since they took over. I shared this to my staff who were "loyal" sushi garden patrons when it was owned by the original owners, and they agree that it's not the same as before and have noticed the quality has declined. Not trying to hate but man, to wait for our lunch plates and having the main entree cold from sitting in the kitchen is a major turn off. No photos taken since I was in a rush to eat my meal and get to work before 2 pm.
