When in Vegas recently for a business conference, my sales reps chose this place for dinner after hearing the rave reviews of how Osaka came highly recommended. I was up for Japanese cuisine and something different from all the flashy tourist places on the strip. The restaurant is definitely low key, casual and with no glitz whatsoever. In fact, it looked pretty run down but definitely a favorite and popular place with the locals. We requested a Japanese table that involved taking off your shoes and sitting down on cushions. It was pretty run down and when seated and hanging my bare feet down under the table onto the old carpet, I couldn't help but wonder about the numerous pairs of bare feet that touched this very spot prior to me. Perhaps my 3 stars is due to not being a seafood or fish lover. I stuck to a teriyaki chicken and steak combo that was dry and just meh. Rest of my party ordered various fish dishes that were okay but not exceptional. I also ordered a California maki that came cold and didn't taste freshly made. The plus, this place was pretty inexpensive verses restaurants on the strip. It's good to see Osaka has a loyal following and good business. Service was good too. Perhaps just a place that wasn't for me.
