Great lunch & first time that my friend (who is mostly vegetarian) got to experience Osaka. The service is always on point & along with our lunches (they're lunch specials apply to Sundays too!), we sampled the Osaka & OMG sushi rolls. Yum!

We get takeout from here quite a bit for lunch. The other day, I ordered spicy tuna roll, and it was probably the best piece of sushi I've ever had. The tuna just melted in my mouth - it was creamy and and the taste was perfect.

I wish I would have found this place sooner! We ordered soups, salads, sushi, fried rice and lemon chicken! All were great! When you are seated they give you cucumbered in a very yummy dressing and the fried chips with cold duck sauce also very good! I have ate food from here 3 times in 10 days!! Also they dont deliver where I live but they do you meet you somewhere which I thought was great :)
(5)Matt S.
Great food. I've tried several different Chinese dishes here and they were all delicious. I don't like sushi but my wife does and she said this is one of her favorite places to get it.

My family and I are food people. That said, Osaka is our destination for great Chinese food. After catering an event we hosted and knowing the owner for years, we've grown quite close to this restaurant since it first opened. Onto a review. Decor is pretty simple, very Nice and clean, but not too formal. Kids are welcome, the servers are nice. The food is delicious, and I always come here as it is a quick local stop. When I don't want to go out, takeout works perfectly. This is my favorite restaurant in my area. Onto dishes I recommend. The orange beef or chicken is great. If you don't like your chicken fried or would like to eat a bit healthier, they are fine with a different way to cook it if you ask. Also, the sesame beef and fried rice are great. We always order the string beans too. Every appetizer I've had was great, and I only recall one not-so-great meal there a few years ago with the beef with broccoli because the sauce was bland. The owner will also often come out and talk to the diners, when he's there. Not always though, because he may cook at times or the restaurant is packed (it's busy when we go.) Go. It is a great experience, much better than what the other people say. Try it!

Osaka is amazing! The interiors are simple and beautiful and tasteful and the food is served in large portions and is terrif! The Tea Smoked Duck still has me salivating. The server we had was really sweet (the dish I ordered is her personal favorite coincidentally), and she gave us complimentary orange slices at the end of our dinner which I thought was a nice touch. You'd never know the strip mall its in would have such a place. The portions are big enough to share easily too. You all should try them.
(5)Bob C.
Probably the best Chinese food that I have ever eaten.
(5)Colleen G.
Great service today for lunch! My favorite sushi place in south hills and their lunch specials are so reasonable. Used the delivery too, always quick and friendly.
(5)Kola H.
When a sushi roll is absolutely delish and its delivery, WHOA snap! The fantasy roll was awesome, and for less than $10 with an egg drop soup, delivered to my hotel room; I was a happy camper.

To celebrate Kay's new job, I whisked her over to Osaka in Greentree in the middle of last week for an extraordinary dinner. Located in a secret shopping center in the clouds, its eclectic coterie of neighbors includes Tamarind, Il Burloni, and Mad Mex. Osaka serves a mix of both Japanese and Chinese dishes, but since we've grown weary of sushi and sashimi, we opted for hot dishes in lieu of cold. Thankfully, we eschewed appetizers and went right for the mammoth entrees, both of which we narrowly finished. I chose the Sizzling Red Snapper with Vegetables, a dish that lived up to its name in nearly pyrotechnic fashion. Fried in an aurelian tempura-battered snapper and surrounded by the freshest of broccoli, infant corn cobs, and carrot slats, the fish was splashed with a salty, sticky, nebulous sauce (soy sauce?) upon service while on a hot plate, making for a steaming spectacle that caused much rubbernecking. The fish itself was as flaky, fragile, and savory as that which comes in newspaper cones from the UK, the vegetables acting as a grassy, earthy complement. Kay's Tea Smoked Duck carried with it an esoteric essence that permeated the lardy, lusty flesh of the dismembered bird. With no desserts of interest to us, our low-keyed and decidedly competent server brought to us a slew of orange wedges at the conclusion of our dinner. A swell, uncomplicated touch of hospitality and gratitude it was, and we appreciated it immensely. Don't let the lack of hype dissuade you from journeying to the southern suburbs for Osaka's tiptop Asian fare. There is no teppanyaki nightclub flash to be found here, only serene ambience, pearly, elegantly elementary decor, and superb Oriental pabulum prepared with honor and great skill.
(5)Brooke G.
The best sushi in Pittsburgh. I love going there. It is a very warm and intimate enviroment. The customer service is amazing and very friendly. I would highly recommend!
(5)Ashley W.
I wanted to like this place so much, but I just didn't have a good experience. I went for lunch and ordered the sushi lunch platter. The rice tasted stale and dry. I asked for spicy on the sushi and they didnt add it. The waitress didn't understand a word I was saying. I'll try it again but am really disappointed

I always order delivery from them, not because their food is great but because they are the only Chinese restaurant that delivers and taste acceptable around where I live. I always tip the driver 20% or above until lately I was having an important phone call when they delivered and forgot to tip the guy. I was told on the phone that I need to tip the driver the next time I called them. I said Ok and apologized, explaining I was on the phone that's why I didn't tip the driver. And I did tip the driver this time. However I FOUND A BIG PIECE OF EGG SHELL AND A PIECE OF HAIR in my food. This has never happened before so I dont know if they did it on purpose or not. As far as I remember tipping is OPTIONAL, and you should never throw egg shell and hair into other people's food.
(1)Jon L.
A nice and friendly establishment with tasty food. The main drawback is that the food is not of the highest caliber: the sushi doesn't taste fresh and items like the egg drop soup, miso soup and General Tso's Chicken are loaded with sugar and salt. Tastiness often comes at a price.
(3)Mary S.
The name implies that this is a Japanese restaurant as does the fact that they serve sushi and sashimi. However other than the sushi/sashimi the menu focuses on Americanized Chinese standards. Personally I'm not a fan of typical Chinese food, so I stuck with the sushi. I had a two color roll, it was pretty standard, yet still flavorful. I also had the eel, which I really couldnt not tell you what kind as I let the waiter surprise me. I was a cube of rice topped with a piece of cooked eel that had been braised in a very tasty sauce. I actually really liked the eel and wished I would have ordered more and not had the roll. Osaka is tucked into a weird interior corridor of a strip mall, so it can be hard to find if you aren't looking.
(3)DJ J.
Met a friend for a quick meal and he selected O, since this is his go to chinese place. Not easy to spot in Scott Towne Center shops, but a real nice restaurant with white table cloths. Nice touch! Service was very good, friendly and on top of everything. Not real imaginative in my selection, just wanted shrimp fried rice. It was very good, better than a neighboring chinese place! Will have to remember this place since it is so convenient.
(3)Tian Y.
I've ordered occasional delivery from here for a long time, but I've never stepped foot in the restaurant after all these years. The main draw for me was that they delivery from open to close, which is really rare in the area. Most only do dinner. The food: nothing special, but not bad either. It's standard americanized Chinese fare, especially in the context of Pittsburgh. I think there has been a price hike recently, but the lunch special is still a good deal. Word of caution: cold sesame noodles are extra peanuty here. I forgot that I actually had sushi here a long time - the rolls I'd eaten before had been good - fresh fish, reasonable portions for the price. The sashimi lunch special - very generous portions consisting of 12 large cut pieces of fish and puts it at ~$1 per piece, but the quality of the fish is mediocre. Quality vs quantity.... Personally, I started to feel a little sick. but if you're not the type to care, definitely go for it. 3.5 stars. The food does the job. more importantly, it gets it to me when i need it. I'll probably keep coming here when I'm in town.
(3)Rick T.
I concur with the other positive reviewers and their observations, so I'll try not to repeat them. I have been eating here for several years and keep coming back. There's one waitress who is not as attentive but the others are exemplary. Owners are friendly, too. I moved to Beaver County for a while -- when I returned two years later and dined here again, the waitress named my favorite dishes and asked if that's what I'd be ordering! The scallion pancakes are fab. Get them! Also, get a house salad. It's your typical mundane iceberg and carrot kind of medley but the dressing -- they make a unique ginger salad dressing that is heaven in your mouth. You'll be cleaning it from your plate. I recommend the scallion pancakes for that, or anything, really -- I'd eat a handful of foam packing peanuts if they had this salad dressing on it. Like other reviewers have said, try the tea smoked duck. It's wonderful with hoisin (as they serve it with) or cold at 2am in the lurid glow of your fridge light.
(5)Jill H.
I am crazy about Osaka! They have fantastic sushi and great Chinese food. The decor is your typically humdrum Chinese restaurant, and the stripmall location leaves much to be desired, but the food is consistently delicious and the service is always friendly and attentive.
(5)Susan D.
Isn't it interesting how a predominately Chinese restaurant has a Japanese name? Last I looked, Osaka is in Japan, not China! The reason is probably because they serve sushi and sashimi here. Otherwise this place seems like it's pretty much your typical Americanized Chinese food restaurant with your typical lunch menu. There's a difference though. The food here is really really good! In fact they charge a couple of bucks more than most places for their lunch menu but it's worth it. I went for my usual Chicken & Broccoli, however the chicken was very tender and juicy and the broccoli was crisp and fresh. The spring roll was very light and melted in my mouth. Someone else said this place is possibly second only to Chinatown Inn for this type of chow. Hmmm--I'd say first Chinatown Inn, then Sesame Inn & Osaka in a tie for second.
(4)Steven H.
Good Egg rolls. Good homemade dumplings. For the price(2 entrees and 2 egg rolls for $30), I was expecting more. Chicken with black bean sauce was great, sesame chicken was not....bland and soggy. If i can find somewhere less expensive with around same quality, wont be back here. I do like the dumplings, but too pricey overall. Good, not great.
(3)Lee L.
I eat here a lot. The staff and management is very friendly and they make things special for me. If you are on a low fat diet they will actually accommodate you. They are always very nice to my daughter when we come in and they will give her little treats sometimes. The sushi is very good and unlike some Sushi places they do not skimp on the wasabi or ginger. The portion sizes are huge. When I order something it feeds me dinner and then lunch the next day. Therefore, the prices are worth it. Also, when you call to place an order they actually don't rush you on the phone, and they will answer your questions. One of the most impressive things about them is when they say your food will be ready in 15 minutes IT IS. I highly recommend this place, Osaka is great.
(5)Brian H.
Standard Chinese restaurant with notably better than average sushi selection and quality. Very friendly owner and servers. Possibly second only to Chinatown Inn when it comes to Chinese Restaurants in Pittsburgh.
