One thing that we Americans tend to overlook is that Japanese restaurants often serve many of the same dishes we have come to love from Chinese and Thai restaurants. This is especially true when it comes to ramens and other noodle dishes, not to mention sushi. For that reason I chose Osaki Japanese for my evening meal not long ago when visited Hays. I was happy to find it uncrowded that Friday night, not alarmingly empty so as to cause you to ponder your decision, nut rather in an assuring kind of way that this will be an enjoyable meal served in a timely fashion. And I was right. I ordered their Udon noodles with vegetables, a generous plateful of noodles as well as broccoli, green peppers, carrots and other veggies. It was the perfect amount, not so much as to necessitate a nap, and not so little as to leave me hungering for more. The best part was that from the time I placed my order to when I was served my meal, only five minutes elapsed. That in itself is amazing, especially given that Friday nights can be rough on diners wanting to be fed without delay. It was superbly delicious, and I left any a shred of noodle as evidence that I had even been there. The hot green tea was the perfect quaff to wash it all down. Yes, I would return! This is good food.

Friday night, and it was super chill. The service was excellent and presentation was amazing. We were seated and had drinks very quickly. The meal was brought very quickly and was delicious. Thank you.

I get something new every time I go. I’ve gone about 5-8 times now. I love the food it’s always so delightful and delicious. I’d say the price is worth the quality. Noodle dishes and soup options are both flavorful and amazing!! There is take out options- you can walk in and ask for it or even call ahead!

We got here around closing time and were greeted by friendly staff. They have plenty of choices to choose from, which bento boxes isn't something offered in my hometown. The food came out fast and it was all good. Highly recommended.

I got the super crunchy roll and it was the best I've ever eaten. I also had the yakisobo chicken it was good too.

Huge menu. Great drink choices. Relaxing atmosphere. The seaweed wrap is inedible tho. The hibachi is superb. Different sauces to choose from. Great raw options. Certainly coming back to try the fried plantain dessert and the tofu appetizer. The spring rolls were perfectly deep fried. Bento box options too. Great fish aroma and taste overall.

Genuine Japanese food is served at the Osaki Japanese Restaurant. The building is decorated in the traditional Japanese red on the outside. It's not hard to miss. Inside are beautiful paper fans about 4 feet across, which were arranged in fashion on the walls. Asian ornaments adorned the restaurant. Behind the bar was a beautiful mural of a wave painted in Japanese formation. The menu offered many Japanese dishes. The food was very authentic and delicious. When in Hays, Kansas, or near by, stop at the Osaki Japanese Restaurant to taste real, authentic cuisine.

We looked for a place that was different than what we usually eat at because we were on a Mini vacation and this place was perfect in the food category. The service was slow so be prepared to wait a bit but it was worth it. We got the Salmon and Chicken Bento boxes w Mochi for dessert and Japanese Soda in Strawberry, Orange, Blueberry.
