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.

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. read more Best sushi joint in Mobile in my opinion. Owners are super nice and cater to your every need.

Although the triangle shape is quite large, it only contains about a tablespoon of cream cheese inside. The ratio just doesn’t work. I would give the Crab Rangoon a 1 out of 5.
