Editorial Review for Oishii Boston – by Citysearch Staff

In Short
With more than three times the seating of the original Chestnut Hill location, the South End Oishii provides a roomier, slightly more modern setting in which to enjoy perhaps the city's highest-regarded sushi. While most diners stick to the raw stuff, some opt instead for hot dishes like beef yaki ishi, a heaping portion of vegetables, rice, and steak on a sizzling stone grill.

Make no mistake, a full meal at the South End location costs more than one at the original Chestnut Hill location.

Poor service, for these prices I expect the best and got nothing close to good service at this restaurant. I left hungry, after forking over almost $200.00 for a meal for two. Substandard

Went on 6/8/08 for fiances birthday. Kobe beef $60.00, small portion. Other portions very small. Waitress loud brash American girl, stated when she realized we were new to the experience "Our chefs recommend you trust them to cater to you, starting at $135.00 to $150.00 PER PERSON. Are you kidding me? We do not use chop sticks, again, she LOUDLY stated "I WILL GET YOU SILVERWARE!" We were seated in the main dining room, across from the sushi bar, therefore on top of the other diners, as it was a long couch, with tables for two coming off. Service abhorent, beverage glass usually empty. Additionally, we did not opt to buy the bottled water,and were served WARM tap water. The bill was outrageous, and I am still annoyed at my fiance for tipping well. Bad experience, over priced pretentious

Cons: parking, service, price
