I've been to Oishi Sushi twice now, and while the food is decent, both visits had…read moreservice/atmosphere issues that made it hard to enjoy my meal. On a previous visit, I was seated in the back of the restaurant, which I was fine with at first, until I realized that's also where staff eat. One employee sat down near me on his break and was loudly eating with his mouth open, shoveling food in with his chopsticks right in my line of sight. It was uncomfortable and honestly pretty gross, to the point that I asked to move tables. On my most recent visit, the service was again disappointing. After my drink was dropped off, my server basically disappeared -- no check‑ins, no options offered, and it took a long time to get anyone's attention for simple things like refills or the check, even though it wasn't that busy. The sushi itself is fine and the prices are reasonable, but between being seated next to an employee loudly eating his break meal and the consistently inattentive service, it's hard to relax and feel like a valued customer. With other sushi options in the area, I'd rather go somewhere that feels a bit more professional and attentive.

The last two to go orders I got had no sauces on them which was a major bummer. Yesterday's trip, the Tom roll was made wrong and was really terrible. I could tell the chef didn't know what she was doing. The crystal shrimp inside our roll was way over cooked leaving the entire roll with a burnt taste, it just wasn't good so we didn't eat much. I hope they get some better chefs and hang on to them because the new batch of chefs is not great. This visit was not enjoyable and neither was the food.

We were originally looking for Korean BBQ or AYCE sushi and ended up stumbling upon this small,…read morefamily-owned restuarant. We were on a limited schedule, otherwise we probably would've tried a few more of their "unusual" rolls. We didn't get a chance to ask why it's called Nationals Cafe, however we did ask Lupita next time if we could order half rolls instead of full rolls--which she happily stated would be fine. Even with only about five tables (from what I could tell), service was good. Lupita was friendly, efficient, and attentive. We definitely want to try the Thick Roll (tamago, unagi, avocado, topped with sweet sauce) and the Loma Roll (tempura zucchini, tempura sweet potato, topped with avocado and sweet sauce) the next visit. We ordered several appetizers--edamame, shrimp tempura, and dumplings--along with the Ichiban and Carol rolls. Overall, the food was decent and hit the spot. Hopefully next time we'll have more time to explore more of the menu.

Service is quick sometimes we have had a problem with one of the servers not being attentive or making us feel rushed. Except for that everyone else is nice. Only thing keeping this place from a 5 is that one male server, and the desert being very TINY lol but it's still fire.

It was my first time there, and my server Jamie was really friendly and helpful. He walked me through the menu, and I ended up going with à la carte so I could try a few things. The wagyu was delicious and cooked perfectly, and the cauliflower was amazing too. The Toyosu fish was really refreshing. I also thought it was really cool that they source fish from Japan every couple of days. That definitely shows the level of quality they're going for. I'll definitely be back, and next time I want to try the full course. The restaurant itself is beautiful overall. Only small thing for me was that it got a little smoky at times, and the wine tasted slightly old, although my server confirmed the bottle had been opened recently. It honestly may have just been the wine I chose. Still a great experience overall.

I genuinely do not understand how this place has such high ratings, and is well acclaimed by…read moremagazines and newspapers. We spent around $700 for two people and it was one of the most disappointing dining experiences we've had -- not just in Tahoe, but anywhere near this price point. The food was wildly inconsistent. Several dishes were overly salty to the point where it completely overpowered everything else. Others were just forgettable (like the beet salad). For a tasting menu that's supposed to be carefully curated, it felt sloppy and poorly thought out. On top of that, the portions were tiny -- even by fine dining standards -- and we left still hungry, which is pretty unacceptable given what we paid. For example the fish was probably a 3-4 oz portion. Many of the dishes were the same size as the a la carte menu, but for the tasting were meant to be shared for 2 adults. That means you are paying 400 dollars for dishes that can be bought for 40 bucks on the menu. The exact same size.... What is going on.... Service was just as frustrating. It wasn't outright rude, but it was disorganized and careless in ways that really matter. We ordered an extra dish and no one bothered to tell us it was already included in the tasting menu -- so we ended up paying extra for something redundant. That's a basic failure and honestly felt borderline deceptive. Drink service was slow, and mis-timed. What really pushed it over the edge: my wife is pregnant, and instead of putting any real thought into substituting a raw fish/uni course, they gave her a duplicate of another dish already being served, and was a dish that we extra ordered. No creativity, no effort -- just the easiest possible workaround. For a restaurant trying to position itself as high-end, that's inexcusable. This place charges like a top-tier dining experience but delivers something far below that level. It feels like they're relying on hype and location rather than execution. Save your money. There are far better places in Tahoe (and beyond) that actually justify the price. Would not return.

I'm very disappointed now. We did have an observance that we've not seen at ANY sushi bar. Even this one in recent history. The trays of fish are normally covered in plastic wrap to keep the fish from drying out or absorbing the flavors from each other. Every case had At least one uncovered tray or tray where the plastic wrap was not replaced. In the past the chef would remove the fish needed then rewrap. Even the scallop sat in a bowl with no covering in it. And it's not like they were too busy to do this. Cody stood there gazing out at the casino. Started talking with staff instead of taking the few seconds it takes to cover the fish.

I was happy that after several years in between visits the menu was the same so was able to order the things I initially enjoyed and they tasted as delicious as I remember!

We ordered lots of things but some of the stand out were the duck fried rice, fried chicken and steak. The drinks were also unique and very good and the server was very nice and attentive. I will that it is very expensive for the amount of food, so some people will be turned off by that.
