Stayed at the Westin Hotel in the Copley area and was just delighted from this small but great sushi stop. My husband and I are from Southern Cal so we've had our share of sushi. My experience at his restaurant was excellent. Wait staff was great, food was fantastic...and let's not even mention the Mango Saketini. We ended up eating there 3 times out of our week visit. Will definitely be back.

Worth it!

by Redtail86 at Citysearch

After a long day at work, I headed to Osushi with some coworkers. It was towards the end of the night, and although the servers were clearly looking forward to going home, nothing was sacrificed. Our glasses of beer were consistantly refilled by the server, and both the appetizers and entrees came along with perfect speed. The popcorn shrimp tempura was delicious, and the makimono was very filling. Essentially, this restaurant was exactly what we were looking for. The service was great, not too pushy, but we were never left wanting. After that experience, we will definitely be back in the future!

all around....just perfect

The quality of food at this sushi restaurant was amazing! Then again....how can this place be around for so long if they ONLY serve sushi if the fish is not FRESH! I read all the reviews and find some people's comments hysterical. The servers are EXTREMELY friendly and the place makes me feel at home. What else can I say....that's why i keep going back!

Best susihi in Boston!

by mrrnyc2002 at Citysearch

This sushi restaurant is exceptional. I am a sushi lover and connoisseur, and I;ve not found better in Boston. Comparable to the finest sushi restaurantsin the world. The service is excellent and the atmosphere is hip and suitable for a romantic date, fun night out or just a quick bite. Simply sensational!

Jet-setters dine in style at the city's coolest sushi spot.

The Scene
Osushi's single dining room, with its frenetic street views and minimalist black and red decor, attracts Copley Westin tourists and sushi-loving movers and shakers. High-backed booths are perfect for couples looking to loosen up via the sake train (there's an excellent list, including a delicate, pear-infused variety). Harried hotel guests and solo diners can saddle up to the tiny sushi bar, where expert sushi masters dice and roll the night away.

The Food
The simple menu is easy for sushi newcomers to navigate, while offering several intricate delicacies (tuna belly) that keep sushi snobs satisfied. Prices are reasonable, considering the excellent quality of the ingredients. After starting with an order of lightly-fried shrimp and vegetable tempura or one of the playful salads, move on to combination orders of sushi and sashimi that include a fantastically smoky miso soup and a simple green salad (which benefits from a flavorful sesame dressing).

Great experience at Osushi last weekend!

by jay123dine at Citysearch

There are many good sushi restaurants in Boston, but none have compared to Osushi Restaurant in the Westin hotel. I just tried Osushi for the first time and all I can say is OTORO! Delecious Tuna Belly Sushi, Crystal rainbow maki, Lobster Tempura, all cut expertly by Chefs that are obviously very experienced. The food was so detailed and that was matched by servers who really payed attention to detail. I have never been in a sushi restaurant in Boston where service and food knowledge were so apparent. Even the manager came over and personelly graded fresh wasasbi on my plate. This is a restaurant I will reccommend to all sushi lovers!

• Pros: Food, Service, Ambience
• Cons: Parking was tough

Never disappointed yet, consistently enjoyable

by moedonna at Citysearch

Though new to sushi, I've had several great experiences at OSushi and always look forward to lunching there. While the service may be a bit slower than some, I've never found it excessively so, and frankly enjoy the chance to relax. Servers have gone out of their way to guide me thru the "process." The Sake list is extensive. The combos with tempura are lovely.

• Pros: Flavor & presentation, Ambience, though busy, Attentiveness
• Cons: Small & busy

osushi is a great place to if you are seeking a young and fast atmosphere but beyond that there isnt much to offer. the food was not that great considering the price that they were charging. the waitress was slow and inattentive, taking forever to bring our food 5 feet from the countertop to our table and not refilling out tea and water despite several request. if you have a lot of time and dont mind eyeballing your food for 20 minutes before it arrives at your table then it's an ok place to go to

• Cons: waitstaff

Osushi should be OH NO SUSHI!

by agentgummy at Citysearch

i read some of the reviews on citysearch and thought that this place would offer up good sushi. i was thoroughly disappointed when i went to give it a try. not only did they have a limited menu, their fish was not fresh as well. i ordered the toro, and although it was tuna that i was given, it was definitely not toro. the waitress was also a bit on the snotty side.

OOh so good!!!!!

by hogan211 at Citysearch

I recently moved from California, the meca of sushi in America and was craving some comparable sushi. I heard from a japanese friend that this place was the best around. I was expecting a decent meal but what i found was irresistable. The food was extremely fresh and delicately prepared. The servers were extremely knowledgeable and helpful and the ambience was very hip. I've become hooked on Osushi, especially the tuna tartar and the o toro. I'm not one for writing restaurant reviews but I was extremely surprised to read the negative reviews and felt i had to defend this delicious retaurant. Enjoy!!!!!!!!

• Pros: Food, Service, Music
• Cons: not a one
