Oshen

Absolutely perfect from start to finish. We went on a Tuesday and the restaurant was packed, yet everything felt smooth and unhurried. We were seated quickly, and Christian immediately made us feel comfortable and taken care of. The small details really stood out — even the infused water with lime and orange made a difference. That kind of thoughtful touch is exactly why I keep saying perfect. For food, we started with miso soup, followed by the tuna chip tartare — oh my god, incredibly flavorful. For sushi, we ordered the Dragon roll and Hono maki, and both were outstanding. So much flavor, amazing crunch, perfectly balanced meat and that spicy mayo and eel sauce just tied everything together beautifully. We also got the yaki udon, which was excellent — great noodle texture and a rich, well-balanced flavor. Honestly, every single dish felt intentional and well thought out. We were never rushed, the service was excellent throughout, and to finish, we had the Japanese cheesecake — light, fluffy, and honestly hard to put into words. This was one of those dinners where everything just clicked. Highly recommend, and we’ll definitely be back.

Phenomenal eats- and even better service! Celebrated a Valentine’s Day brunch at Oshen and Alex delivered the most incredible service and recommendations for our first visit. We thoroughly enjoyed starting our meal with the Pork Belly Bao Buns! The caramelized pork packed a punchy flavor and the aromatic herb topping rounded out the bite! We shared the Doragon Roll- the sweet and spicy sauces worked beautifully! The Hono-Maki roll with the dry chili garlic crunch topping was delicious! We also enjoyed the sweet Hana Awaka sake- sparkling with a hint of sweetness. Thank you for a beautiful brunch!

The experience we had at Oshen was incredible. On top of having a diverse gluten free menu, the variety of dishes and rolls were unique and expertly curated. I have lived in coastal New England my entire life and this is the best, freshest, and most delicious sushi/sashimi I have ever had. This is a hidden gem in Charlotte. Our highlights were the eel chirashi bowl, philly maki, and salmon nigiri. Do not skip the miso soup or any of the desserts. We remarked consistently about how everything our resplendent server, Jose, brought over to our table. We loved Jose's knowledge of the menu, recommendations, and amazing personality! All of the wait service here was attentive and fun. I cannot wait to return to Charlotte and have this meal again. We braved the snowstorm for this and it was worth it- make the trip! Look no further!

Dining at Oshen Sushi absolutely blew me away. It may have been the most attentive service I’ve ever experienced. Our server explained everything thoughtfully and in detail, and while we had a water pitcher on the table, we never once needed to touch it. If any glass was even halfway empty, someone was immediately there to refill it. The level of attentiveness was truly exceptional. Now for the food. We ordered the edamame, beef dumplings, bao buns, Mango Bliss, Hono-Maki, and Doragon rolls. Every single item was packed with flavor and beautifully prepared. The bao buns practically melted in your mouth, and we loved that each roll came with its own complimentary, thoughtfully paired dipping sauce that enhanced the flavors of the dish. I would recommend this spot to anyone. I will absolutely be back, as it has officially become one of my favorite sushi restaurants

We dined here on a Sunday night and the vibe was great and the food was amazing. Our server Sara deserves a 10/10 for being a phenomenal waitress and guided us to make some good food choices and was so pleasant to deal with. We dined on the Pork Belly Bao buns and they were so good we ordered a 2nd batch. We also had the Tuna Tataki and the Truffle Avocado both were delish. We still had room an ordered 3 rolls, the Mango Bliss, Lobster Delight and the Steakhouse Roll. YOU HAVE TO ORDER the Steakhouse Roll!!!! WOW! Definitely worth visiting this restaurant since it won't disappoint and its worth the wait and $$.

Attended this restaurant this evening and the service and food were both excellent! We came in without a reservation and they instantly sat us down. Our server, Christopher I believe, was very well mannered and was very helpful navigating the menu. I recommend ordering the Chirashi bowl. Very similar to a poke bowl and one of the best I’ve had, everything on it was so fresh. Great atmosphere, a little loud with the music and echo from other guests but I guess that comes from a smaller restaurant. Overall recommend!

Truly one of the best meals my husband and I have had in Charlotte. It was my birthday and they made it so special. Jose was the most incredible waiter..so knowledgeable, kind, and funny. The manager was also amazing. Absolutely will be back!

It's not bad, but purely for sushi there are far better options in the city, including one good spot just a few miles away. Most notably, the fish list is extremely spartan: tuna, salmon, yellowtail, eel, scallop. That's it. Lacking some common items you'd find most places, much less the more interesting stuff. Quality of fish is good. Preparation of nigiri could be a little better; a bit heavy on the rice, and the rice was maybe a little dense or under-seasoned. Scallop nigiri with miso butter was a good flavor combination. Salmon with truffle oil and lime zest could have been really good but was overpowered by truffle; it doesn't take more than a few drops with that stuff. On a positive note I do like the space and atmosphere. It's in a sweet spot that's like nice enough to go for a date, but not too formal either. Solid, friendly service. Some small tune-ups on the nigiri, and maybe a handful of off-menu specials, I think would pull this up to a 4/5 for me.

Sarah was a fantastic server and deserves a promotion! It was a special treat to have her company! Thanks for a great experience! Anthony was also good spirited and a joyful person to talk with on our visit! -everlee, Kingsley, Rowan and the parents

Went here on a very meaningful date night and walked into an atmosphere that was buzzing in the best way. Anthony greeted us right away, made sure we had drinks in hand, and put a smile on our faces while we waited for our table. We shared that it was a special night, and he immediately made us feel taken care of. We are absolute foodies and were completely blown away by the food. Every bite of sushi was out of this world. The flavors were creative and thoughtfully paired with each fish in a way that truly elevated the experience. I typically prefer simpler flavors, while my partner loves bold, complex ones, and somehow this became both of our favorite sushi we've ever had. The miso soup deserves its own moment. It was hands down the best we've ever had. Fresh ingredients were brought out and the broth was poured tableside, creating a beautiful experience that tasted even better than it looked. To top it all off, we were surprised with a special dessert to help celebrate our night. We came to enjoy great food and mark a meaningful moment together and left having one of the most incredible dining experiences we've ever had, both in food and service. Thank you to Anthony and the entire team for making our night truly magical. We'll be thinking about this meal for a long time.

Oshen is quite a popular restaurant in its shopping plaza. When I went in for lunch over the weekend, every table was filled with chatter. The waitress was incredibly sweet and proactive in getting us seated within 20 minutes of waiting. Overall the presentation of the dishes ordered were beautiful, and sushi was on par with the quality found across most sushi restaurants in Charlotte.

We got reservations at Oshen for Valentine's Day lunch and were so impressed! The quality of the sushi was some of the best we've had in Charlotte and definitely the best in south Charlotte. The menu was unique and featured some really tasty cocktails. We started with the Steak House Roll and WOW, delicious! The roll comes in 4 pieces, deep fried crunchy and topped with savory teriyaki beef. The Doragon roll came out next and was deliciously topped with fresh tuna. Next came the star of the show - the nigiri canoe. Three pieces each of the nigiri options and all packed with delicious flavors and textures. The scallop nigiri literally melted in our mouths, the salmon was topped with fresh lime zest, and the tuna came with jalapeños. Definitely not your ordinary nigiri. We enjoyed our cocktails as well and this was my first time trying lychee. We are telling everybody we know about Oshen, definitely going back ASAP.

We love Oshen and dine here at least once a month. The atmosphere is fun, they do birthdays really well, and the sushi is some of the freshest and best in Charlotte. We have tried most of the menu and everything is consistently excellent. The only item that has disappointed us is the beef dumplings. We have tried them multiple times, including again tonight, and the filling has been very dry with wrappers that are often hard or chewy. We truly love Oshen and will absolutely keep coming back. We also love dumplings and will keep trying them here in hopes they improve, because everything else on the menu is a hit.

We ordered delivery from Oshen. We were both craving sushi and Oshen was running a special so we decided to give it a try. We got the Philly roll, hono maki roll l, edamame and chicken hibachi. Everything was soooo good. It was close to the best sushi I have had in charlotte. The details in how the food was packed from the restaurant is also impressive. You could tell the servers spent time preparing everything and even included a little tray for soy sauce. If I didn't have young kids we would go in person for sure. I have already ordered delivery a few more times!

Oshen is definitely where you need to be if you're looking for great sushi, phenomenal drinks, and outstanding customer service! First, big shoutout to Nadia! Not only is she an excellent waitress but the best bartender! She was knowledgeable about the menu and guided our experience, with drinks and food that complemented each other. We knew that we wanted good sushi but we were open minded and EVERYTHING that she suggested on the menu was exceptional! The Doragon and Pork Belly Bao buns were our favorite but the steakhouse roll and Hono-Maki were honorable mentions. EVERYTHING had an amazing flavor profile. For desert, the pistachio ricotta cake is hands down soooooo good! Please keep that on the menu indefinitely!!!!!! One of the best deserts I've had in the city! So light and fluffy. Everyone that we encountered were so friendly and welcoming. And the ambiance is perfect for lunch with friends or date night! If you're in the mood for excellent sushi, definitely check this place out! I bet you won't be disappointed. It's worth the drive (30 minutes for us), the money, and the wait if you encounter one. Also, don't forget to ask for Nadia! You'll be in the best hands!

Decided to check out this spot since we were craving some sushi. The sushi was great, but it was the tuna tartar with crispy rice as well as the jalapeno hamachi that stole the show. Give the wasabi cocktail a try, it was delish. Service was on point too! However, I gave this spot only 3 stars because of a big mishap...dessert!!! We ordered the Japanese cheesecake and it had to be the worst we EVER TASTED. It was VERY dry instead of being its famous fluffy and soufflé like texture like it should have been. It was either baked far too long (if made fresh) or not thawed at all (if frozen). It literally tasted like eating a dry biscuit. I was looking forward to it and it was a BIG DISAPPOINTMENT. Hope that was a one off mistake. Anyhow, we may give this spot another try but there is too much competition and so many good Asian spots out there to choose from in the Charlotte area.

It's been a while since we ate at Oshen but based on my notes and recollection the food was "different". I'm usually a stickler for authenticity when it comes to my cuisine preferences but I have to admit I was surprised to enjoy the fusion fare of this restaurant. The flavored edamame was a bit of a revelation. It was, for lack of a better word, mildly addictive. The beef sushi was a little cloying after a few bites. Not too fond of it. Good to experience though. The tuna roll was surprisingly tasty. The service was attentive but not obtrusive. The ambiance was a bit avant-garde and fusion-y. And to be honest, didn't really appeal to me. Too bourgeoisie for my taste. Overall I rate the food a B. Service is an A, and ambiance is a B. Solid 4 stars. So the final question then is, will I come back? Maybe. This restaurant for me was a one and done kind of deal.

So I came to this place years ago when it was a Mexican restaurant and since then they kept changing ownership. Finally checked this place out and didn't realized it was in the same building I used to go to. The place definitely change 180. The decor is nice and it's a pretty change. Came here on a Friday night around 5:30 and it was already busy. We ended up sitting at the bar. Everything we ordered was delicious. I would say the udon had a sour taste that I wasn't a fan of. My first bite of salmon felt like it had bones in it but I couldn't tell and just continue chewing. The hamachi, I was expecting jalapeno slices on top and didn't realized it was a sauce and it was spicy. Too spicy for me haha. The presentation was pretty. The drinks were good. I would definitely come here again. The staff and people are nice and friendly. Such a good fun atmosphere.

Solid 4.5 sushi spot. I tried the salmon nigiri, lobster tartare, steak roll, and chicken karage. The salmon nigiri and lobster tartare were both 5 star dishes, and the steak roll and chicken karage were 4 star dishes. I would love to see a wagyu nigiri added to the menu, I bet it would be a big seller. Overall I like the menu, the food was tasty, and the place seemed nice and clean inside. I have to say my favorite sushi in charlotte is Kappo En (RIP soon), and my favorite non omakase nigiri actually comes from Yunta.

I grabbed takeout here over the weekend, but the restaurant is beautiful on the inside so I definitely plan to dine in. Easy online ordering and pictures, which are always appreciated. I ordered the beef dumplings and the steakhouse roll. I don't typically do fried rolls because they are hit or miss, but this was actually my favorite part of the meal. The beef was a sweet stir fry and the fried outer part was crunchy and not dried out. The beef dumplings were really good as well, and came with spicy type of chili oil. The other thing I liked was the packaging-each item is labeled with the customers name and order. Very efficient. I was happy with the portion and the price. This is a great addition to the neighborhood!

I have never been disappointed at Oshen's. My friend and I frequent Oshen's about once a week and we love it. The service is outstanding and the owners are so friendly. I love the spicy tuna tartare and the Doragon roll has the best flavors going on. The food is very fresh. I can't recommend this place enough! Do yourself a favor and go.

Wow! Blown away! Easily one of the top sushi places in the city. I got their salmon nigiri which was topped with I think lime grass and truffle oil. Flavor explosion! Then their Dorogan(sp.) Roll. Full of flavor, incredibly fresh fish, especially the tuna. The service was also some of the best I have ever received. The decor and interior are also simply stunning. Cannot wait to go back! Also very impressed with their wine list as well.

My partner and I had an amazing experience for Valentine's Day weekend! We started with the Hamachi Jalapeño Crudo, which absolutely blew us away. The smoked jalapeño sauce was so flavorful that we honestly wanted to take it home. Our server, Nadia, was outstanding from the start. She recommended the Tuna Potato Crisp, and it turned out to be one of our favorite surprises of the night. The blend of textures from the crunchy chip, tender tuna, and marinated tomato worked perfectly together. We also ordered the Nigiri Canoe and paired it with the Living Jewel sake, another spot-on recommendation from Nadia. Each piece of nigiri had its own personality and balance. The scallop nigiri with curry butter melted in our mouths and was such a pleasant surprise. The eel with avocado and teriyaki completely changed our minds about eel. We actually wanted seconds and my partner ended up getting the second piece. My personal favorite was the spicy scallop nigiri wrapped in tuna; a little tricky to pick up with chopsticks, but so worth it once you get that bite. The Living Jewel sake was the perfect touch, especially when served in its beautiful, interactive jewel-shaped dispenser. It added such a special element to the night. We definitely appreciated Nadia's thoughtful pairing suggestions throughout our meal. Her knowledge and friendly energy truly made the experience shine. Overall, Oshen was a hit from start to finish from exceptional food, presentation, and service. I hope this sake stays on the menu; a few of my friends have already asked about it! We'll definitely be back soon to try the hot foods

Friday dinner with friends. It's a restaurant with limited seatings and a bar, so reservations would be nice. Our server was pretty caring as we were a large group. Food came out at a good pace. Food recommended: the edamame was flavorful with a bit spicy taste; the hamachi jalapeno crudo (was recommended by the server)'s sauce was good; the sanshu roll's wasabi blended very well with the roll. Chirashi bowl gave the option to have the personal choice of ingredients. The yaki udon was way too salty. However the manager made another one for us with the soy sauce on the side. I really wish the restaurant could be a little bit quieter. The music was playing loudly so I had to shout out to my friends at the other end of the table which made my dinner tiring. It was a bit frustrating that it was also somehow hard for the communication between me and the server when ordering food. We tried to hear each other but the music was simply overwhelming over our voice.

Everything was lovely about our meal, the ambience, the service/wait staff, the drinks and the food. Can't wait to go back.

Great prices, a sleek and cool ambiance, delicious food, fabulous service, and FREE parking! Dishes I love: - Edamame: Cooked in a Wok (life changing!!) and topped with ponzu and chili garlic - Steak House Roll - Black Sea Bass - Shishito Peppers The owners behind the successful Yunta, La Lima, and Viva Chicken knew what they were doing with the opening this restaurant!

This new place is a GEM!! It's located in a shopping strip near Rea Road, but the place seems almost too cool for such a suburban strip. Yet, I'm so glad it's not located uptown, where you have to deal with all the parking hassles. Not that it's super-flashy or anything like that. The place itself is small and modest, but has a nice, clean Japanese ambiance. The menu is also on the small side, but quite unique...with many items that were appealing to me. Also surprising was their friendly pricing. For my first time, I tried the Oshen Salad, Steak House Roll, and this Japanese Cheesecake, which came with a fruity dip. Well, everything was AMAZING. Not only delicious, but nicely presented too. Not only did the foods come out quickly, the service was very friendly and attentive throughout. I can't wait to try more items on their menu. Must return soon...for both lunch and dinner!

The place was incredible! Our waiter was amazing, super attentive and gave the best recs. The place is super busy but still had an intimate feel. The food is incredible also. Top bites were the hamachi jalapeño crudo that came with the best sauce, the tuna tartare that you should definitely get with the crispy rice crackers and the scallop nigiri. 10/10 already planning on going back. For sure make a reservation bc it was super busy and you probably wouldn't be able to get a table until late if you walk in.

Sat at the bar ~6:15p on Friday night - Both bartenders were very attentive and friendly (I am blanking on their names as I type this) and obviously worked well together. It was clear that both the front and back of house staff truly cared, someone spent the time to train thoroughly them and set expectations, and that every team member was aligned on meeting those expectations. Bravo to the GM we saw running around with a huge smile all night. Shoutout to the bar manager who served us and went above and beyond to ensure we had an exceptional experience and to the #girlboss on expo balancing the insane to-go volume without sacrificing the dine-in experience. As industry peeps, we have next level respect for a team that holds themselves to this standard and were thoroughly impressed. I'll mostly let the pictures speak to the food, but know that everything was fantastic. We started with the shishitos. I would eat anything covered in that sauce. Nigiri - We tried the yellowtail, yellowfin, scallop, and honeymoon. My hubby has already decided we need to go back and get the canoe (includes pieces of every nigiri) because the pairings were perfectly done and the quality of the fish was amazing. (If you only try one, the soy butter scallop is the way to go.) We also had the lobster tartare (definitely get the crispy rice) and the streakhouse roll. The space is small (they turned tables fairly quickly so if there's a wait, I'd suggest sticking around!) and it is loud as a few reviews have mentioned but not unbearable. Love that they have outdoor space! I honestly can't say enough good things - We will definitely be back.

The highlight of this first visit was the presentation of the Miso soup. It was very delicious and entertaining to have it poured into our bowls at the table. Service was very attentive and on point. There were more staff there than customers during our visit. The price was a bit high but this is probably due to the location however when compared to Baku I think I would choose Baku over Oshen for dinner. It is a decent place to meet friends for sushi lunch. Great atmosphere!

Being from the team behind Yunta, service is impeccable! They just opened so definitely expect some kinks. The highlight: - service is 5 - scallop nigiri is smooth like butter - cocktails

Not sure how I never knew about this place but it was outstanding! The service was on point, if a little slow, and everyone was super friendly and attentive. Everything that I tried was high quality and worth the price. I honestly think they could get away with slightly higher prices with the quality of food and service the provide. I will say that the Miso soup was VERY onion flavored, as one other person noted, but I don't mind that .

Wow, this place was amazing. The wife and I got a night out and we're very impressed. Im from the restaurant business and have to say this was some of the best teamwork service and management I have seen. Everything ran so well and the food was the same. The attention to detail and layers of flavor was on point. The staff knew what they were bringing out and reccomendation were perfect. Our server Jose made this an amazing experience. We will definitely be back.

We went here for my father's 84th birthday lunch. The service was five star+. The level to detail and attentiveness was outstanding! The food was fantastic. Our favorites were the edamame, Shishito peppers, Scallop Nigiri and Sanchu roll. They brought out a Keylime pie dessert with a flaming sparkler to celebrate his day. It was just the icing on the cake! This is a must try if you are in the area.

The well mixed of Japanese and Caribbean styles and processing, delicious and delight presented. You got try one time. ;/)

Oshen is hands down my favorite spot in Charlotte. The food is incredible and to make it even better they have so many amazing gluten free options. The food alone would keep me coming back but the staff there is truly top notch -- friendly, attentive, and treat everyone like family. The cherry on top is the stunning and comfortable environment -- we look forward to our Oshen Friday lunch date every week!!

The service was 5 star. They put limes on my rim, over the top attentive. I've never tipped more than 30% in my life - until I went here. It was worth it. Food was great and service was most excellent.

Amazing experience! Drew was our waiter and he was very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. From start to finish, we had a great time. The drinks and food were delicious and fresh. Each menu item is offers a unique taste experience, which makes it hard to choose a favorite. All of the staff were personable and top notch. The only complaint I'd have is the music was a little loud, but that fits the lively vibe of the restaurant :) -- definitely would love to come back soon.

Everything we had was great - the edamame, yellowtail nigiri, and salmon nigiri especially. You can taste the quality ingredients from the fresh fish to the homemade sauces. The vibe is much more chill than sister restaurant, Yunta, but the service is just as good. Definitely will be back.

The food was very good and so was the service. We tried the shisito peppers and their rolls. We had a non-fish lover and they got the steak rolls and steak fried rice. Not too many options for them but was satisfied with what he got. Nice bright and open place. Crowded - book early

I dined at Oshen for the first time this weekend and was so impressed. The food, drinks, service, and atmosphere were all exceptional. The sushi quality was top-notch--some of the best I've had in CLT. I'm so glad to have found this gem.

Wonderful new restaurant- food and service is outstanding! A very happy place; staff genuinely interested in providing a good experience. Food definitely above average with prices that are reasonable. Sushi of course but also many items available for non-sushi fans. We had tuna tataki, shishito peppers, beef dumplings, tuna and scallop nigiri, spicy tuna sashimi (make sure you get the crunchy rice crackers) and a light Japanese cheesecake for dessert. Reservations available. (A few seats at bar are available without reservations.)

Birthday celebration was perfect at Oshen. Excellent freshly prepared food and reasonable prices make this upscale restaurant special for any occasion. The chocolate cake with sparkler was the best part of the evening with all the staff singing Happy Birthday. What a great time and thank you to all the wonderful staff for an extra special evening.

Stopped by for another fantastic dinner at the bar. Service from the bartender Hormi is impeccable. What more can one ask for? Good service, fresh food, beautiful atmosphere. There's a reason why every seat was occupied and walk-ins weren't available until 9:30pm when I came at 7pm. Packed house.

5 stars!!! Amazing food, amazing service, amazing ambiance and great prices for the quality! Definitely make a reservation, the restaurant was full all night. When I arrived I was pleasantly greeted by the waiter who was very good at refilling our waters and checking in on us all night. The ambiance is nice, it feels casual with a flair of high end and the details on the place from the logo to the napkins were perfectly thought out. For food you cannot go wrong. We ordered family style and tried a variety of dishes. Our favorites were the salmon nigiri (so fresh) and the doragon roll. But everything was amazing. Highly recommend trying this place out!

We celebrated our daughter's 11th Birthday at Ochen, the staff and the GM Anthony made it a special night for her. The food was amazing, and the service and staff were amazing. Best restaurant in Charlotte!

The most amazing sushi, and soo great with Celiac/gluten free diners. This is one of my favorite newer restaurants in town. The drinks our immaculate (and their bartender, Ormi, is a gem), and the service is wonderful, but the food is really superb. Don't sleep on the edemame, crispy rice crackers with tuna tartare, and the scallop nigiri.

I've been wanting to try this place and finally so happy I did. Dainty but full of energy. I absolutely loved everything I had. From the tap water, offering before we asked lemon, lime, or oranges twist. I thought was great service! We were honored to have Hormi as our vivacious waiter/mixologist! He's great! He answered all my questions and gave his top favorite, which I must say is mine now. The Fried rice with lobster was absolutely marvelous and my forever favorite! We also had Tuna tataki, Mango bliss sushi , and Sunomono. For drinks we had Spicy watermelon margaritas but we held the spice. Delightfully delicious with a generous slice of watermelon too. We will definitely be back.

HFS! I don't give this away very easy! As a huge sushi brat who's tried every place in CLT, this place is tops. I'm shocked that it has moved into my #1 place. And trust me I don't give this honor away easy. The fish is fresh and the inventive rolls are pure art. The wine selection is impressive and the service is on point. The cool ambiance is modern and clean. Love the food here and can't wait to be back. Worth the trip.

Our new favorite sushi in CLT! Great flavors and service is impeccable! Never disappoints!

Service is amazing! Food was a hit or miss. We ordered a lot but there were the standouts: Shishito Peppers - nice char, a little bit sweet, the mushrooms were a great touch Salmon Carpaccio - fresh and light, umami taste Scallop Nigiri - buttery and creamy Chicken Karage - chicken was soft and moist, I really liked the breading they used The not so greats: Black Cod Misoyaki - very disappointed with how this turned out. The sauce was great but the fish was definitely overcooked. We ordered it twice to make sure it just wasn't a one off thing but the second fish also came out very chewy. Yuzu Lo - wasn't a big fan of this sushi Overall I had a great experience even though we were rained on but like I said the service is AMAZING and they brought out a second umbrella for us. Prices weren't overly expensive so I would definitely go again.

I tried Oshen recently with a few girlfriends for lunch on a Saturday. I was excited to try it but was left underwhelmed as were my friends. We ordered quite a few dishes to share and try: - Shishito peppers - Hamachi Jalapeño Crudo - Yuzu-lo Roll - Sanshu Roll - Japanese Fried Rice with shrimp - Black Cod Misoyaki - Chicken Karaage - Beef Dumplings My friends and I thought the best items were the chicken karaage, black cod, and shishito peppers. The chicken karaage was lightly crisp and juicy while the black cod was buttery and melted in your mouth as it should be. The shishito peppers were good too. The eggplant and shiitake mushrooms made the dish in my opinion. The dumplings were so-so. They were lacking in flavor and unmemorable. I thought the hamachi crudo was good but one friend thought the hamachi was fishy. The jalapeño cream served with it gave it a nice kick though. The shrimp fried rice was fine too but didn't wow us. This time another friend thought the shrimp was fishy. We also thought the sushi was fresh but again, unmemorable. The sushi we had reminded me of what I've had at Yunta (Oshen and Yunta are owned by the same people). I would consider the cuisine served to be Japanese fusion as most items on the menu are untraditional. Service was good overall but at times it felt like the server was hovering. Oshen has only been open a month so maybe they still need to work out some kinks. The menu also didn't have a ton of options and it's Japanese fusion. If you're looking for traditional Japanese, I'd go elsewhere. However, Oshen has a nice ambiance (it's clean and bright inside) and a good cocktail and alcohol menu if that's what you're looking for. Also, our group noted we were the only Asians in Oshen and the restaurant was full so take it for what it's worth!

Had the miso soup, eel nigiri, salmon nigiri, and sanshu roll. Everything was delicious. Service was wonderful. The restaurant itself is beautiful. I definitely recommend!

We enjoyed our first experience at Oshen! We were fortunate to go in early enough to grab seats at the bar. I think there's some room for improvement but overall, it was very good. Some of the sushi we had was room temp, maybe because of the rice, but should have been cold. The cocktails were excellent and our bartender, Orbi (apologize for spelling), was awesome! The rice crackers - get them! It's a side to a tartare but they were awesome! Skip the milk bread. One this I would recommend, have soy sauce out for the bar and wasabi served with sushi.

This place is AMAZING!!! The food, atmosphere, staff, attention to detail is everything. My waiter Camilo was so pleasant!!

Compared to all the sushi I have eaten this is absolutely the freshest food I have had. Service was amazing !!!!
