Oshin Japanese Restaurant, Brisbane

When you walk into this restaurant, it’s like you’ve walked into a restaurant in Japan. There is sushi bar which has a display of all the fresh seafood available and a Japanese sushi chef who works behind the bar. The waitresses are dressed in Kimono’s and greet you in Japanese and give you a towel to freshen up after you have been seated. They are very friendly and extremely polite. Soft traditional music also plays in the background. This restaurant has such a calm and relaxing atmosphere that makes me forget that I’m actually in the middle of the CBD.

We started off with a serve of Crab Shumai (steamed crab dumplings) and Takoyaki (Octopus Balls). For the main course, we ordered the Deluxe Sashimi which comes with rice and miso soup. This is a great dish for sashimi lovers. It included raw salmon, yellow fin, mackerel, tuna, scallops, boiled prawns, and seaweed salad. You could tell the fish was fresh as it didn’t have a strong fishy taste to it. I also ordered a few sushi rolls from the A La Carte menu and chose the Grilled Eel, Raw Tuna and Cucumber rolls. They put wasabi in these rolls so if you’re not a fan of wasabi, then make sure you let them know while you order!

Overall, I had a great authentic experience. The seafood was very fresh and the service was very good.

Overall rating: 7/10
