Osaka Japanese Seafood

"First visit. Friday night. Not busy. Waitress was sweet and attentive. Owner was yelling at the wait staff right next to us due to an error at another table. Our grill was not heated which caused a delay between salad and the start of cooking. Only one burner lit on the grill and the chef over cooked the steak and chicken while he was trying to get the other burner lit, while the owner rudely tried to intervene without actually helping. Lights were way too bright exposing dirty corners and thread bare feel of the place. TV was set to some shoot em up show which wasn’t family appropriate. Automatic gratuity added to bill (but clearly labeled in the menu) and extra charge for fried rice (also clearly labeled in the menu). The extra charge for fried rice seems excessive and makes what would be a good value too pricey (especially given the… unpleasant atmosphere). Doubt we’ll be back."

"It’s good for a quick lunch if that’s what you are wanting. My issue was I got charged 18% gratuity for eating by myself, at the sushi bar amongst an empty restaurant. It was a cash tip that day until I noticed that."

"Restaurant was extremely hot and the floors were very slippery! Server was pretty good, a little short with some answers. Cook was very friendly and did a wonderful job. Portions were large and good value for your money. Could use some attention to cleaning and atmosphere."

"I’m leaving this review as someone who has patronized this restaurant for many years and had —this evening—an awful experience. My friend and I were seated at a hibachi table. We received our beverages and soup and salad promptly. 15 minutes into eating our appetizers, the host arrived with a family of 6, and TOLD US to move down. (It should be noted that my friend and I were the only two Black customers in the establishment.) When I rightfully, asked why the larger party couldn’t be seated at a different table, so we (who were literally eating) wouldn’t be displaced, the host just stared at me. And repeated “move.” We were forced to pick up our plates, drinks, and cutlery and move down to make space for a party that could’ve been seated at the another empty table in the restaurant. The host was rude—and I’m sure he wouldn’t’ve spoken to two white women that way. I will not be patronizing this establishment again, and I will make it my business to let everyone I know, know that you do not value your customers of color."

"I have been to a bunch of hibachi places. This place was pretty good. The hibachi show was very enjoyable and fun. The chef did a great job. The food was good and you get rice and noodles. I didn't like having to extra for fried rice. The salad and soup were both good. A little on the pricey side for hibachi but you do get dessert."
