Osaka Sushi in Courtenay

Food is okay, decor is a madly thrown Together, hideous mix of thrift store art and unkept plants with strings of Christmas lights, some working, others not. Only one server on a Friday night, we waited quite a while, and meals came 15 minutes apart. Not coming back!

Have eaten here many times, never disappointed. Good value. Great flavours and freshness.

Surprisingly great sushi in this little strip mall in nowhere! Great bento boxes and awesome chicken karaage! Nice service reasonable prices.

Met friends there for dinner, none of us had previously eaten at this restaurant. It is a humble place, with simple decor, but dont underestimate. There is a vast selection on the menu. We ordered a Tray of vegetable rolls and a Happy Tray as well, then extra Yam Tempura rolls. Excellent food, Fairly priced, Prompt and friendly service. Too bad we were visiting, and dont live in the area - otherwise we would become regulars.

Absolutely loved my bento box. Thanks again!

I dont know what happened but who puts processed cheese slices in sushi roles.. i bought a tray to bring to my work place and share.. all my co-workers where shocked and i wont go back or recommend Osaka. The staff of Osaka are very nice. And i have enjoyed their food, but in late i feel they are cutting corners and the quality of sushi has gone down hill.

Honestly was super disappointed in their sashimi. Was not up to par and wouldn’t order it again. Sushi Jo is amazing, go there if you want good sushi!

Ordered 2 chicken bento boxes they were very tasty and fresh a nice variety of items. The portions were very good it was a filling meal I will definitely be back in the future.

My favorite sushi place in the Comox Valley!

Unfortunately the salmon that was used on top of one of my rolls was extremely fishy and unbearable. I understand that things cannot always be fresh but... that salmon was quite "off".

We have driven from the neighbouring town to buy our sushi from here, because it’s so good. Good prices and tasty food.

We eat here all the time. Take out. Always the box meals. Great sashimi and nigiri. Its always delicious, plentiful and within the price point of Comox. The family that runs it are very very nice.

My favorite sushi in town. Ive been there half a dozen times and ordered something different every time. Simply delicious!

I love this place, yes the food is banging but the staff are wonderful. Very kind people. Fast and efficient. I miss getting my usual order since I moved

Great sushi and very friendly staff, worth a stop if youre in need of sushi in the valley

Unreal. The best sushi Ive ever had in the most unassuming location. Dont miss this gem! The staff are wonderful. A small but lovely place and the food presentation is exquisite. I cant wait to go back!

Awesome, very yummy, food very fresh, just simply Yum ✌🏼🙃✌🏼

Customer service was terrible, they will hang up on you.Their sashimi tuna is served warm most of the time.Not worth the food poisoning.

If they really cared about the quality of their food it would be great, unfortunately they dont: tiny avocado rolls, tiny portion of sea weed competely overpriced, veggie rolls falling apart couldnt even use chopsticks! overall not good quality. Will not be eating there again, sorry guys bad job!

This place was very accommodating when I was in a rush and the sushi was very high quality. Best Toro I have had since moving to the island.

Very fresh sashimi, tuna and sockeye were generous portions that melted in your mouth. Bento was great value, enough for me to get two meals. Side salad was very nice, lots of extra toppings and side sunomono even had baby shrimp! Will be back! Thanks for a delicious lunch!

good sushi but not the greatest. I was happy enough with the dynamite and California rolls i got.

Great sushi, fantastic service! I love this place, my favourites are the rivers roll and their spring rolls. Life changing!!

Lunch was awesome. Portions were generous, service was fast and restaurant was clean. Would highly recommend for dine in or take-out.

Best sushi Ive had so far in the comox valley area. Good price for really good quality sushi in my opinion. Great service too.

We come here for lunch quite often so we decided to order a sushi platter for New Years Eve. We picked a la carte to get exactly what we wanted. It was really good and very fresh tasting.

On our first visit we only chose it due to the opening hours being earlier than other joints nearby. But boy were we delighted by how good the food was here! Miso soup was a little on the bland side but the sushi rice is perfectly seasoned and the tempura appetizer was so light and crispy!We returned for a second time the very next day lol. Will definitely stop by again next time we are on the island!

Wonderful homely place. The people there take care of you so well that you will feel like going there often. Great food too!!

This joint is so jammin goodness gracious we love it so hard. My fam-damily has probably eaten these food one million and forty times its good. Moderate price for cant-go-wrong sushi flavors. All the time eating cant go wrong good times lovely grinds except dont go there at 2pm because they are closed for siesta hours

I would tell you how good the food was, but we sat inside an almost empty restaurant for 15 minutes without even being offered water, let alone having our food order taken.You can only make eye contact so many times before you just admit defeat, swipe left and leave.

When you order food everyone at the table should get their food....not have one person get their food and the other person waits....and ends up getting their food just before we decide to leave. No discount for the lack of service. A Pretty Disappointing restaurant.

Lovely staff, very generous with freebies. They recognise their regular customers. And the sushi is very good.

By far my favorite sushi joint Ive ever been to. Unique menu items I cant get anywhere else. Every thing has always been lovely every time Ive been.

They gave us green tea before we finished looking at the menu and then brought edamame to the table as soon as we had ordered! Busy, small restaurant. Seemed to do a decent amount of take out. When they messed up a take out order, I saw her bring the guy tea as well. Very lovely service. Food was good, not earth shattering, portions were decent sized.

I love this place!! They start you off with an awesome greet g and smile. I have never been disappointed with the service and food. Best Sushi experience in the valley!!

This was the first restaurant I have ever been to where the waitress told us what we "wanted" instead of getting us what we ordered. We ordered and she corrected us and told us we would prefer something else instead and ordered that for us, completely ignoring our requests. My Japanese friend was shocked at how rude the staff were to the customers when speaking Japanese. There was a dead fruit fly in the soy sauce bottle on our table. The food wasnt bad - definitely not the best Ive had but no where near the worst either - but the service killed it for us. We wont be back.

honesty i didn’t think a cheese slice was a legitimate kraft single. i’m appalled. i thought it meant thin slice of any other kind of cheese. that’s ridiculous. they should specify American cheese or literally processed cheese i bet i’m not the first to be utterly disgusted and actually upset. why would you even label it like that. i’m appalled and will not be coming back which sucks because the lady’s were super nice and the service was great. just read really well and don’t assume they have regular sushi because this ,i state again, is ridiculous

Pretty tasty food, very clean venue, but some of the slowest service I’ve ever experienced at a sushi restaurant. Took them 20 minutes just to bring us water (and even then we had to stop a waiter and ask), and despite there only being two of us our orders arrived almost a full 10 minutes apart from each other. Prices may have been fair with decent service but with how poor it was it felt overpriced. Definitely far better choices to dine at in the valley.

Food is delicious! Fairly priced. Made the drive from Nanaimo To Courtney and it was well worth the drive!!

Coming from the mainland Ive had a lot of sushi. Osaka doesnt disappoint with its colorful presentation and fresh ingredients. Very good food, service with a smile and good atmosphere. The gangster rap that they play is a little strange but I like it. We call it "Gangster Sushi"... lol So good.

Just average.Good variety on menu.Prices reasonable.No booths available, just tablesand sit up bar. Sashimi was fresh.No big deal overall.

Some of the best sushi we have ever had. Excellent service and pricing. Beautiful presentation and very flavourful and very fresh. Perfect temperature for each different type of sushi we ordered. We were served very quickly despite showing up close to closing time. We are from Alberta so maybe our experience is tainted because we are not from close to the ocean and there is generally better sushi on Vancouver Island than in Alberta, but we were so happy with our experience at Osaka. Thank you Osaka Sushi.

I had lunch with my brother. It was really clean environment and especially the server seems owners wife was so friendly. The foods was exelent. I strongly suggest to visit if you are in courtney.

The food here is sensational. The shot Ali roll is delightful, the food came quickly and the service was perfect. I will definitely go here again. The prices are not cheap but not outrageous. Well worth it❤

Update: After the renovation the place doesnt have the same great vibe that you look forward to sitting in and enjoying. Feels like a cheap dollar menu sushi parlour now. Still good food but service isnt as great as it used to be, 1 server to deal with all customers... They took off the $20 bento box which was my all time favorite and pretty much the only reason I kept coming there instead of the other sushi places, I dont go there as much as I used to, maybe once every 4-5 months now... Miss the old place.Old review: So delicious! Everything here is great! Price is reasonable service is decent. Nice and calm atmosphere.

Not the same after the renovation. Not sure if the people who own Domo bought it, but the food is nowhere near as good as it used to be, and just order at the counter. Doesnt have the same feel in the restaurant either.Kobo is really the only good place left in the valley for good sushi now.

What is the point of being a take out based sushi restaurant when you never answer your phone. I have called different days, different times and many times. NEVER GET MY CALL ANSWERED! Food is great if you can actually speak with someone to order....

Best Sushi in town!!! The food is authentic and prepared perfect. a real treat! Their Goma-ae is so refreshing and the Osaka roll and the spicy Ichi roll are my favorites. Service is friendly and attentive. Mmmm craving their sushi right now writing this!! haha

The food is excellent! The staff are very friendly! Great atmosphere ..One of my favourite restaurants. Upon one visit we were very politely asked if we would mind moving to another table in order to accommodate a family. It was nothing for us to move as we had only just sat down, so we did happily. The staff very quickly brought out complimentary food in appreciation. A big plus for me when going out for food is having attentive service without being intrusive or neglectful. The service here is amazing, you can really tell the staff care and take pride in there buisness. This place rocks!!!

The sashimi was good, as was the miso soup...but the sushi...wow, not good at all...it was poorly proportioned, and the texture of the rice/Nori was all off. The ingredients of my rolls just didnt seem fresh at all. will go back for sure (only because Im cheap), but Ill never order the sushi again..sticking with the heaping slabs of sashimi from now on.
