Osaka Japanese - Northampton

Food is amazing, service is subpar. I visited for dinner with my wife and the menu was changed since we were there last so I tried something new which was great! Regardless of what I order, I'm always happy. They could just use a more friendlyatmosphere. Prices are a bit expensive.

Stopped in for lunch and was seated right away. Ordered the Lychee Martini that was very good. For sushi rolls I had the Bad Boy and American Tango rolls and oh my..... what delicious and creative flavor combinations and amazing tasting sauces. Loved mylunch experience. Service was quick. There's metered on street parking, a parking garage or a ticketed parking lot, all acrossthe street. The option for dining outdoors is available. Really enjoyed this spot!

Super fun night out! Definitely worth the trip. Service was great and the experience enjoyable. I took a couple of stars away because my shrimp were over done and the steak was tough.

I used to live in the apartments upstairs from Osaka for a little over a year after graduating from nearby Hampshire College in Amherst. Throughout my college years at Hampshire I 'd eaten at Osaka a few times; NEVER envisioning I 'd actually live upstairs from it in the future when I graduated. I 'm from NYC originally, and Osaka holds it 's own with some of the best Sushi places I 've eaten at in Manhattan and Brooklyn. BEST Sushi imho in Noho (if NOT within the entire Pioneer Valley area); Arigato in Amherst was my other: Go-To Pioneer Valley Sushi spot; BUT, once I was living upstairs from Osaka though, I became a SOLID regular there. At least 3-4 times a week, sometimes more. I DEFINITELY let Arigato fall by the wayside in favor of Osaka. Plus, I also got the BEST oderiferous emanations up in my apartment from both Osaka and Camanito Steakhouse (where I also ate at a lot), so I can 't REALLY complain.

Had an enjoyable dining experience at Osaka in Northampton, MA with a friend! The ambiance was inviting, and the service was prompt and friendly. We indulged in a variety of sushi rolls and were impressed by the freshness and presentation. The Loveboat for 2 was a standout, giving us an awesome experience of sampling and trying together. While the overall experience was delightful, I'm leaving it at 4 stars as there's always room for improvement. Nonetheless, Osaka is a solid choice for a sushi outing in Northampton. Will definitely be back to explore more of their menu! #OsakaNorthampton #SushiAdventure
