Osmanthus
Menu
The restaurant from Oakland offers 126 different courses and drinks on the menu at an average price of $10.5.
Osmanthus, an upscale mixed-Asian restaurant in Oakland, has been a favorite for many over the years. However, recent changes in ownership seemed to have impacted the quality and ambiance for some patrons. While the food is generally good, the service and overall experience can be hit or miss. Some customers have complained about the noisy atmosphere and lackluster service, while others have praised the delicious dishes and attentive waitstaff. It seems that Osmanthus may be going through a transition period, with some hoping for improvements while others are hesitant to return. Despite the mixed reviews, the restaurant continues to attract diners with its flavorful Asian cuisine and trendy ambiance.

Feedback
Was Wendell Nikolaus at Osmanthus a mag?
The tea leaf salad, and mango salad were amazing as were the short ribs. The only dish we didn’t love was chicken because it was a little chewy, but still delicious. Would come back! View all feedback.
What Vernie O'Hara dislikes about Osmanthus:
Made a reservation on open table and when we showed up for dinner the place was CLOSED! Had to walk around in the rain on a Friday with some business associates and find a place to eat and talk. Business phone number listed is disconnected and no signs on door indicate why they were closed. Is it just for one night, forever, only Friday’s? I DONT KNOW!!!! View all feedback.
The food (beef with Peppercorn and Salt/Pepper Lobster) and drinks (Shanghi’ed mezcal, Tequila, Thai chili peppers) was outstanding as usual. We love to introduce Osmanthus to Friends. Always boasts a Family atmosphere and the Owners are great hosts.
Unfortunately, an ownership and menu change is coming, so only one more month of the delicious food served at Osmanthus. Go now!
I apologize that we were unable to dine at this restaurant before it closed last time.
