By far, the best place I have had sushi anywhere in the states. I worked in Mobile for a year on contract and tried all of the sushi places around. Osaka was always very pleasant, friendly, fresh and enjoyable. It has a really personal feel to the atmosphere and the service was great. I ended up becoming a regular, then began exploring more traditional sushi. That's when I realized how good Osaka's fish was. It needs no sauce, cooking, gimmicks, or hype. A cold Japanese beer and freshly cut tuna, snapper, salmon, mackeral, or whatever chef serves is always going to be delicious at Osaka in Mobile. I recommend trying the Fish Finger- raw instead of fried. Can't wait to visit again.

Favorite place for sushi!. We love going here for sushi! Have never been disappointed. The wait staff is very friendly. We usually sit at the sushi bar so we can watch the chef at work. Great place for a date night. We also enjoy the hibachi. The chefs are very entertaining. Food is always fresh. Only thing I've ever been disappointed with was the lobster. However, I'm one of those people who believe when you go to a restaurant that specializes in a certain cuisine, you should order just that. Their Japanese dishes are always great! Please give them a try!
Best sushi joint in Mobile in my opinion. Owners are super nice and cater to your every need. Black Pearl, The Paul, and Manhattan are my favorites.
Great food for great prices! Being half Japanese I can be picky but was pleased with this place! Loved it as South China too!!! Good stuff & nice atmosphere!
Great sushi. Had the Phoenix and the Sayonara. Both were excellent.
Quite good Japanese cuisine. Authentic flavor. They will cook "hibachi style" if you're into the Benihana-type show, or you may dine at a regular table. Locally owned, not a chain.
Great Food. While I am put off by the sheer number of Japanese Restaurants in Mobile, I can say with confidence that Osaka is the one I frequent the most. I have only had the Hibachi once and it was fabulous. We usually just get the Veggie Bento Boxes and a Spicy Tuna Roll. Simple, Healthy and Delicious (Affordable Too!).
Great place to celebrate birthday!. Had my birthday dinner at Osaka last night and was incredibly impressed! This was mine and my guests first time eating here and we all thought the food was delicious, the service was great, clean bathrooms, and the complimentary fried cheesecake topped it off! Thanks for making me feel special for my birthday...can't wait to come back!
Absolutely loved this place! My new favorite restaurant! The show was awesome and the food was excellent!
Excellent food, as always! The service was quick and the wait staff very attentive. I love eating here, always a delight!
The Ialian Roll is great! The food is always fresh, the dining room clean, and the employees so friendly. You can count on this place for a very relaxing experience, an oasis on Airport Blvd.
I have been going with my fiancé to Osaka at least once week, for about the last 4 months, excellent food, and excellent staff. Suishi is always on point there and the hibatchi is incredible, the only con to it is the price is a little high if your getting suishi, but for the amount of food you get, it is quite fair.
Great Food !!!. I have never been disappointed in this place. I have never sat at the hibachi. I noramlly order sushi or the bento box. They have always been nice, quick , and great food.
I love this place. It's the best sushi in town. The servers are a little over attentive, but it beats the opposite. The owner, Jason, is an amazing sushi chef. My 2 year old even loves it there!

Favorite. A little on the expensive side for dinner but always have great food and service. Usually go several times a month.
The universe Alabama is by far the best sushi I've had at osaka's! The service is pretty good other than one server constantly talking to u while ur trying to eat. It was good when they first opened, but the past two times I've been I was disappointed.
Plus-es and Minus-es. Went and tried Osaka recently with the hubby and our friend. I have a mixed review, but overall it was positivie.
Got a green tea to drink, and when I got it, it looked like there was a smear of japanese mayonaise in the cup, which wasn't a very good first impression...
Service was alright, not very personable.... I had the sashimi salad as an appetizer, and the salmon tasted a little on the fishy side to me (yes, I know salmon is an oily, stronger flavored fish -- i eat plenty of it as sashimi all the time) -- so I know it wasn't the best quality I've ever had...
So that was meh, but some of the rolls we ordered had really good flavors.
Nice miso soup bowls.
Very reasonably priced, but I don't think I'd go out of my way to go here again.
I'll stick with Daruma (right by me in Daphne) -- or drive over to Pensacola for Ichiban.
Went last night and the food was great! We went for hibachi and enjoyed the show the cook put on at the grill. I'd heard that the prices were really low, but find out when we got there that the low prices are for lunch. The dinner prices are able the same as any other Japanese restaurant. I would definitely recommend it though! :)
By far one of the BEST sushi restaurants in the Mobile area at a price that everyone can afford! Great service, super clean environment and amazing food! 10 out of 10!!!
