Osaka is definitely one of the two best places to get sushi in the valley. It is also the most expensive one. Their Japanese-French fusion menu (menus, at this point) is one of the best things about...

After researching sushi spots in NoHo, Osaka came up as my 3rd choice. Number 2, can't recall the name, got bumped because of less than stellar Yelp! reviews, and number 1, MoshiMoshi isn't open on...

Oh Mylanta! The dancing roll was TO DIE FOR. I went here once, and though it was pretty crowded, we were hastily served heaps of decadent sushi. It was a little dark in there. I feel like the lighting...

Let me preface this by stating I am in no way a fan of Japanese cuisine, so I can't vouch for the sushi or hibachi delights. (I had some sort of tofu noodle dish that wasn't very memorable the lone...

I've been here twice: one for sushi and another time for hibachi. I'm sorry to say that I have to agree with the rest of the reviewers and say that this place is a little overrated.

Osaka is great Japanese food and great entertainment rolled into one night. They cook the food in front of you and the cooks have a great sense of humor. The food is fabulous!

With so much competition in noho, Osaka is hands down the best Japanese restaurant around. Atmosphere is festive and elegant--porch seating especially charming. The food is amazing. Tuna dumplings are a MUST.
