Osaka – Newcastle upon Tyne
69 Grey Street, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE1 6EF
0191 261 5300
Osaka is
situated on Grey Street, Newcastle, one of the most beautiful streets in
Britain. This restaurant has been on my
to-do-list for quite a while but last night I tried it out for the first time.
Osaka is a
contemporary Japanese, Sushi and Noodle Restaurant which prides itself on
serving FRESH, BEAUTIFUL & DELICIOUS food – It certainly did deliver!
This
little gem brings Japanese food at its best to Newcastle city centre. The staff greeted us with a smile and
promptly took us to our table. It may
have been a Tuesday evening but the restaurant was fully booked so we were glad
that we had booked ahead.
The menu
has a great selection of dishes and also has a set menu; we chose to dine from
the main menu. There was so much to
choose from that we were spoilt for choice.
It did take some time for us to finally decide on our dishes. I will definitely have to re-visit Osaka very
soon to order the dishes that I didn’t.
The food
was amazing; it definitely provides what it promises – the food was fresh,
beautiful and delicious and excellent value for money.
The staff were
extremely friendly and very attentive and helped with our final decisions for
menu choices. It is definitely a
restaurant that I will be visiting again very soon.
What we ordered:
Starters
Chicken
Katsu £6.20
Salmon,
Tuna & Eel Sushi £6.40
Mains:
Eel &
Tobiko Fried Rice £11.80
Teriyaki Salmon
Bento Box – this includes; salad, Japanese pickles, salmon sashimi 3pcs, maki
2pcs, sushi 2pcs, rice and miso soup. £15.50
All the
dishes were absolutely delicious – I eat sushi a lot and this has to be the
best that I have tasted. I ordered the
Chicken Katsu and the Bento Box but really I should have just ordered the box
as there was a lot of food. However I
did manage to eat every last grain of rice.
