Excellent, friendly service and food was fantastic. Atmosphere was family friendly and they are patient with young kids.

Oishi Sushi Bar has a clean and quiet atmosphere to enjoy decent sushi and thai dishes. Their menu range from appetizers, soups, salads, sushi, don bowls, bento boxes, to thai curry. My first visit was on a Sunday afternoon and the service was slow and the wait staff seemed a bit uninterested being there. I noticed that one of the wait staff also was making the sushi I ordered, though she didn't seem to the usual sushi chef there.The crispy tofu came out very lightly warm and seemed to have been thawed out and hurriedly prepped. This affected the taste and the usual expected crisp was missing from these 'crispy' tofu.The bento box had a very nice variety of different items just in the right portions for a bento box. The pad thai tasted quite nice, while the nigiri didn't taste as fresh as could have been. However, the presentation of the bento box was very pleasing to the eye.The Keywest roll with spicy conch was my most favorite here. The crunchy and spicy conch add a very tasty combination of flavors with cucumber and sushi rice. I could have had two rolls of these.The Fresh Salmon roll has double layers of fresh salmon (inside as well on top). Although this roll came recommended by some of my other yelp friends, unfortunately the salmon in this roll didn't taste very fresh to me. Though the taste wasn't terrible, but salmon tasted a bit 'un-fresh'.I will return to Oishi again to try some of their thai dishes and have their Keywest roll again.

The place is nice and the staff is friendly but the food wasn't quite what we expected. The calamari was overpriced for the amount we received and on top of that not good at all. Really oily and overcooked. Their crab Rangoon is not what you would normally expect. They put curry powder in it and that was not explained on the menu.The only thing I liked was the miso soup and seaweed salad. Not coming back unfortunately.

Absolutely excellent! I give high praise to a sushi restaurant that has more than 20 specialty rolls and a primary focus on SUSHI rather than hot food entrees. We will be going back soon!! Very soon!

Still 5 stars. So fresh, so tasteful, and the plating is beautiful. Brought another couple with and they agreed on the quality and flavor of the sushi. Wife had teriyaki chicken (not a sushi person) and it was very good as well. Tried some appetizers this time as well. The crab Rangoon were not super traditional, but we all loved the. The pot stickers were great too. Cant wait to go back. If you're in the area, the take out was booming on a Tuesday evening, word is definitely spreading about how good this place is.

Literally just ordered $50 worth of sushi and it is HORRIBLE. Me and my boyfriend tried this place literally LAST WEEK dining in for there lunch special and it was AMAZING! But today we ordered to go and my “Crunchy Spicy Salmon Roll” is JUST RICE! It is so dry with literally no spicy Mayo sauce!!! Like there is nothing! My boyfriends “Philly Roll” is the same thing no cream cheese!!!! This is not okay. We spend a lot of money for this??? Horrible.

WOW this is some of the best sushi I've had. I eat sushi multiple times a week and pretty much eat at every sushi restaurant because I'm constantly wanting to find the best sushi. Although I find this area of Tampa to have pretty good sushi, this place has hands down been the best. They have lunch specials, happy hours, and HUGE portions. I typically eat 3 rolls but their chef rolls are are huge at a minimum of 8 pieces to 12 pieces a roll! Their sauce is really good and fits the sushi rolls well. Their sauce is a great addition and not over powering. They also offer a lot of different fish options in regular rolls like eel and escolar which I find other places don't even offer in rolls. Their price point is great and you can even get rolls with lots of fish options in one. Lastly, they usually have $0 delivery fees which makes it more inviting. I can't wait to have it again!

This is absolutely the best melt in your mouth sushi. The rolls are fresh and the rice is so well prepared. Service is outstanding. We will definitely be back again.

All I can say is WOWWW! I’m a sushi fanatic and this fish is top quality! I ordered from Uber eats and waited longer than expected for my food to be prepared but it was sooo good that I would have waited longer! Can’t wait to get here more now that you’re my new neighbors!

presentation was beautiful, food was delicious. If you’re a sauce person this is your kind of sushi, we got a NTU, Tokyo Tower and Tornado And A Sunomono. Inside is such a nice atmosphere, very calming for a quick lunch ! :)
