We come here for lunch a lot. The drinks are good. They have good Sake selections. Sushi is really yummy, but I really love the Chicken Bento Box, they give you a lot of food. I like the salad they always give you and then ice cream at the end!

Insanity. INSANITY!! I’m a huge fan of sushi and I’ve been to MANY sushi locations. Oba will be very difficult to beat because of the quality range of selections and the beautiful ambiance. The prices are a bit above average but the dishes are worth every penny! This is a destination restaurant for special occasions. You wouldn’t tell by the exterior. Don’t let that full you

Fast service. Very good sushi. The ice cream is delicious. The spicy sushi combo with soup and salad is very filling. The tempura with udon was a highlight. The rolls did not even need soy sauce. Everything was very filling.

Super tasty and great portion for resonable price. There are also “cooked” food for kids and those that don’t care for “raw” fish. lol
