Ate here last night 4/8/2023. Upon walkkngnin the place was clean and well cared for. There was 1 other man in interest who was waiting on food. I like the fact that the girl working the register was patient in asking what we would like. She could clearly see we were looking and didn't push. I liked that. Most places rush you and don't give you a good amount of time to decide. We placed our order then payment went smoothly. We ordered steak and shrimp hibachi, chicken and shrimp hibachi, 2 large drinks 2 egg rolls and a tupelo roll. That cost roughly 43$. They give you your cup to fill your own drink. They offer Pepsi products and sweet or unsweetened tea with the option of lemon to go in it. We chose sweet tea with lemon. Tea was good. It's self seating so you can sit wherever you want. We sat down & pur food was out in not time. Now the food portions are big amd it was decent. I do have a few key things to point out though. The chicken and shrimp was boiled. It's not authentic so if that's what you're looking for this place isn't it. We did enjoy it, but like I said it's not fully cooked on the grill then served. It's boiled, heated on the hibachi grill, plated then drizzled with some sauce and served. It was good though. The Tupelo roll was really good as well. The egg rolls were smaller than any I have ever seen, but they were good in tatse and thats what I figured matters. Definitely a place I will go back to with my family for a quick meal.

Love Oishi! I usually get the Hibachi Chicken. Last several times the chicken has been a little dry, tough. Maybe over cooked? Rice is yummy, veggies are yummy. Clean and fast service. Meal type Lunch Price per person $10–20 Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Simply phenomenal. The character of the steak and chicken fried rice is outstanding. This was the best tasting takeout I had during my cross country road trip. Everything from the quality of meat, flavor, and presentation is excellent. I called ahead and they had my order ready to go. Wish I could come here more often! Superb.

I love this little place. I forgot about it for years and saw my neighbor eating yummy food and asked and it was from OISHI! I went the very next day and got lunch and it was great. Fresh and enough food that I actually had lunch for the following day as well. Great for quick budget friendly meals. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4

This place is awesome!! The place is very clean and the people are very nice and professional. We got our food very quickly and it was very delicious. This place makes other Japanese places look bad. I didn't use the bathrooms and don't know if they have any but I'm sure they are clean. Very nice place to eat.

We ordered the chicken, shrimp, steak fried rice, a volcano roll, a shrimp Tempura Roll, and an order of crab rangoons to-go. The food was ready when ordered, but the customer service was very lack luster. The fried rice order had zero flavor but was able to be doctored up with our own stuff. No salt, pepper, eel sauce, or flavor in general. It looked and tasted bland, but the portion was very large. The volcano roll was a joke and a mess. The roll fell apart immediately and was disguised by a mound of topping for being a mediocre California roll. The shrimp Tempura Roll was a piece of seaweed with rice and a sad piece of shrimp. Again, no veggies, Seasoning, or flavor. The crab Ragoons were decent though. It had a crunch and a decent sweet filling with a good filling to wonton ratio. Overall, spent 35 dollars with tip. Will not be eating here again. Tried it once. Won't go back for a long time until I hear things change. Service Take out Meal type Dinner Price per person $10–20 Food: 1 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 3

Great food! Fair pricing. Horrible smell inside the restaurant and I saw a roach. Not sure if it was an infestation or not but it was enough for me to leave as fast as possible. Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person $10–20 Food: 4 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 1

I got the jumbo shrimp dinner Portions were fairly large but the food was just okay and it was mostly rice. Also the salad, if you can call it that, was just really lettuce. The vegetables are cooked fine but the shrimp were really regular size and slightly overcooked. The sauce on the shrimp is pretty good The fried rice was just okay

My girlfriend and I had tornado roll sushi. 4 hours later we were both sick to our stomachs and throwing up. We got food poisoning. I’d stay away. The food has always been delicious. It’s not the first time we’ve been sick from them.

Delicious sushi. Had the spicy crab and shrimp rolls. Very fresh ingredients and quick service. Highly recommended!
