Would give 5 stars if they had a brown rice option. Specialty rolls are fantastic: Amy’s and Paulas rolls are superior. Sushi temperature is perfect, room temp!

Easily, 100%, hands down the best sushi place in the area. This place has the most creative dishes and the freshest fish. My family doesn’t even open a menu any more because the staff knows what we like and recommends only the best! If you are going any where else for sushi, you’re sorely mistaken. It is baffling this place doesn’t have a higher Unilocal rating because it is truly wonderful, but if a lower Unilocal score helps the wait times stay down then I’m okay with it. I now live in DC and don’t even go to sushi unless I’m going home to oishi!

Can’t believe this place only has 3.5 stars on Unilocal!Just goes to show you, you can’t always trust this site. I come here once a week. No, it isn’t dirt cheap, but sushi is expensive no matter where you go. If you want the freshest, best quality sushi in the Metrowest, look no further. Service is also excellent.

This is one of the best sushi places I have ever been. I am a sushi snob and when it comes to fresh fish this place is one of the best. The fish is amazing and they always have fun rolls on the special menu. You need to try the crispy saki maki with mango sauce it is one of the best rolls. I get it every time I am in town. Everything they have is amazing tho!

After many years of ‘good-sushi-hunting’ in the Boston area, this remains one of my favorites. A few years ago, I was inducted to proper quality sushi here, it is also where I first fell in love with the deliciously tender and juicy Hamachi Kama. What I appreciate the most here is the creativity of the food. Their maki are exemplarily unique and goes beyond your average list; every bite of sushi includes variety of flavors and textures which combine into a bite-size culinary experience. The«Hamachi Torched Maki» combines the tender texture of the fish, with the popping black tobiko, coated in the light sauce of miso. «The Maki» with the esteemed toro accompanied by the contrasting flavors of daikon and jalapeño. «The Kappa Sashimi» is made for sushi lovers who doesn’t want too much rice(to fit more of the fishes!), the refreshing ponzu sauce with the fresh cucumbers wrapped around variety of sashimi fish. I remember the ‘Spicy O-toro omakase’ had such an intensity of flavors wrapped around the heavenly texture of toro, though the pieces are a bit too thick and seemed slightly frozen. And that deliciously fresh Japanese uni, they are not stingy about the portion at all, every bite was a pleasure in itself. Although I rarely veer away from seafood-related dishes here, they serve quite a variety in their menu, including Sukiyaki where is hard to find elsewhere in the area. I’ve never had problems finding seats here, even on Fridays at dinner time. Plenty of parking in the back and for a Japanese restaurant, I thought it is fairly spacious, tables are close together but there are quite a few of them beyond the sushi bar seatings. The staff was always friendly and helpful. For the quality, the price is fairly standard. Compared to its counterparts: much more relaxed and less expensive than Oishii Boston and more spacious than Oishii Chestnut Hill.

Pros: Service was very good, best part of our experience. Décor was nice. Lots of specials. Good saki selection. Cons: Very expensive — low value. Lacking in flavor-the special maki was bland. TONS of fruit flies-gross! Overall, we prefer Feng in Hudson. Don’t think we’ll be returning here…

Really expensive but delicious. By far the best sushi I’ve had in the Boston area, and it’s a miracle this is in Sudbury, where good food goes to die. Better than Fugakyu, but I’ll admit that I order from here infrequently because of the price.

I absolutely love this restaurant. It has amazing sushi and the service is excellent. The servers take the time to get to know regular customers and they graciously put up with little kids. I honestly don’t understand how people can complain about the prices. You absolutely get what you pay for when it comes to raw fish! The prices are fair for the amazing quality.

Best sushi in the area but so so so expensive. We usually do take out. Service is quick enough, the fish is fresh. I think their maki are getting smaller(less fish) as time goes on. But is seems fresh and is always delicious.

Newly expanded space gives you more room to enjoy some of the best sushi on the planet. High quality food and great service!

Bar none, my favorite sushi restaurant… next to eating at the fish market in Tokyo. Fish is super fresh, rolls are innovative with amazing flavors, and now they have a TODIEFOR dessert menu made to order by the dessert chef! Do not miss the Shiitake Tempura maki, the White Tiger maki, and Crispy Sake maki, followed by a molten chocolate cake. Serious yum! Oh, and ask for Gary.

The space is small, and the food is not cheap. However, the food is quite delicious, especially their daily specials. Will definitely be back. This place is way better than Fugakyu down the road. It’s crazy that the Unilocalers have rated the other higher.

I love this place. Best sushi in the state and quite authentic to my many experiences in Japan. The place is very small so take that into account when you plan a visit. But if your focus is just great sushi this is the place to be. It is quite expensive, but that is really part of the model if you want to eat high quality(raw) food.

I really liked this place, its small and unlike most places I have been to. The waitstaff were on a first name basis with a lot of the people there, so a lot of regulars usually is a good sign. I saw a lot of people with salads and all of them looked really good. My girlfriend loved the hot green tea. This place isnt a bar so it really is all about the sushi. The Oishii Spicy Scallop Maki was the best piece of sushi ive had. Toro(fatty tuna) Kaibashira(sea scallop) Hamachi Torched Maki – havent anything similar and it was good Kappa Sashimi Maki – cucumber wrap which ive never had, it was light, fresh, and tasty

The food is excellent but the prices are high and the service can be downright appalling. It wouldn’t have been all that bad if it wasn’t for the last time I went there. I’ve been going there once every couple of weeks for some time and the place is tiny and packed, especially on Friday/Saturday night. So this time I showed up on Sunday night of a long weekend and the place is filled to the brim. I had to wait in line for a while to get to the front desk so I can put my name down. This is where they refused to serve me outright because I was alone, stating they have no space for a single person! And, mind you, they weren’t apologetic about it at all. It was more like«we won’t serve singles because there is no space, now get out». Needless to say I was a bit shocked as I haven’t seen this kind of attitude towards regular paying customer in a while. There is a good chance I won’t be going back there because of this.

I was prepared to enjoy my dinner of Sushi and Sashimi. After a long drive to the area, and very, very hungry, my friend and I sat down at the Sushi bar and get ready for what hopefully would be a good — if not great — meal. Unfortunately, we were disappointed. We ordered a salad and a seaweed salad — they were as expected, which is to say they were exactly what every other average Sushi joint delivers. The steamed shu mai was, generously, bland and mushy. Oshinko was the standard prefab mix that any strip mall Sushi joint offers. Now, on to the sushi/sashimi. We ordered the Omakase(one Sushi, one Sashimi). The presentation was not too bad, from a few feet away. However, the fish was, overall, bland, and inexcusably, a great number of the pieces were FROZEN. Crystallized and crunchy, still frozen and just terrible. Additionally, the sashimi pieces were absurdly oversized. I get that some people might think that more is better — and the restaurant might have decided that the way to a customers heart is by stuffing their mouths with gigantic slabs of raw fish, but this was simply repulsive. Some of the cuts were pushing ¾ of an inch THICK. If I wanted a whole fish in every bite, I’d have a swordfish steak, thank you. Overall, this was a pretty big disappointment. If I could give 1.5 stars I would, as I reserve one star for those places that are just vile. This was, above vile. But certainly off-putting.

I just found the hands-down best sushi in the metrowest area and I am excited! Finally, an amazingly fresh & creative sushi bar within 20 minutes of me! To be honest, this has just slid into my #2 spot for favorite sushi in Boston, behind only o ya(but much much more reasonably priced). Oishii has 3 locations, one in the South End, one in Chestnut Hill, and finally one in Sudbury. Opening Oishii in 1998, Kung San expanded to Sudbury with Oishii Too in 2000. Beautiful artfully-presented pieces of sushi come straight from the bar to your plate, bursting with fresh clean flavors, all while not shaking your wallet with worry. We headed over Saturday evening after a long day of shopping(without a reservation), and were able to snag the remaining 4 bar seats before the bar got quite busy. The place is small & cozy, with about 10 seats at the bar and 30 – 35 spots at the few tables. We looked over the extensive menu & the specials board for a while before deciding on a wide range of appetizers & rolls. Meim started with the lobster tempura, large chunks of buttery lobster lightly tempura-ed along with homemade potato chips & a creamy horseradish garnish. Delicious, but a bit difficult to eat with the large pieces, this appetizer was quite filling. After enjoying steamed shumai, the heavy hitters arrived. On the outside of the picture below are the two Route 66 maki, with salmon tempura, snow crab, cream cheese, avocado & spicy mayo deep-fried and drizzled with sweet sauce(delicious). Lined on the inside of these two rolls were the Tekka maki(tuna), California roll, and Unagi maki(eel). Next was the special roll I ordered, which is my favorite everywhere I go, and absolutely amazing here: Snow Mountain. Shrimp tempura wrapped with avocado and topped with real crabmeat and loads of tempura flakes. T ordered a special of spicy tuna with avocado, topped with roe & mango. This turned out to be one of his favorites, but other tasters begged to differ, stating the textures were a bit too mushy and the roll needed a bit of a crunch. The final roll was the roll I forced T to order, as I didn’t want to commit to it completely, but still wanted to try it! Thank the goodness, because this actually turned out to be my favorite roll of the night. Flavorful & light, it was the perfect roll to end with. The Matsuzaka Maki is a combination of crispy shrimp tempura & bonito flake maki covered with torched yellowtail & drizzled with plum sauce… also known as sushi perfection. Much too full for dessert, we got the check and were pleasantly surprised to see the total was $ 160 for 4 dinner-portions including 3 drinks. So reasonably priced for a sushi dinner! With our stomachs smiling with fresh clean sushi, our wallets smiling with the amazing value we just received, and our mouths smiling from the super friendly service we received, we headed home… smiling! I am quite excited to have found this gem, so close to home, without having to head into the city to find fresh, quality, interesting sushi!

I was excited to visit this Sushi Bar, but since the prices were very high, we had to wait till groupon came out with a half off Dinner deal. My wife and I went for lunch with a $ 75 coupon figuring it was a Safe bet the Coupon would cover us for Lunch prices. Before we ordered, I asked the Host and the Waitress maybe 5 times what I could Order with the Coupon as I pointed to what we were interested in, 5 times they said yes to what we picked out, leaving us to think what we ordered was covered. When the Check arrived, the Bill was almost $ 75 before Tip after the $ 75 Groupon Voucher. So needless to say, they were charging 2 people $ 150 for LUNCH? That was insane. I was, lets just say, Not very happy with with the explanation, leaving us feeling scammed by this establishment. I wouldn’t go back there if the meal was Free, sad to say.
