Sushi is practically everywhere these days and it always tastes good. However, it can be hard to find that one sushi restaurant that really hits the spot.
Osaka Sushi bar is located in Central Athens, in between Syntagma and Monastiraki. The theme of the restaurant gives you that aesthetic feeling as if you are dining in Japan.
The lighting is dimly lit and there is a counter top where you can sit and watch the chefs in action as they prepare your sushi. They also have tables for a seated dining experience.

The menu is huge and offers hot soups such as miso soup, dim sum, tempura, sushi and hot main dishes too.
The price is moderate, but the portions are big and what makes this restaurant stand out is that the fish and other ingredients used are so fresh and light; that you would never want a last bite.

Since there’s a wide selection of sushi, you will come across combinations that may seem risky, but are actually delicious. A great recommendation would be to try the salmon, seabass and tuna when choosing your fish for sushi.
The shrimp dim sum is fresh and flavourful and the miso soup is small yet filling.
This restaurant is great for casual dining in the day and a great idea for a date night.
