Osushi - Ardmore — Restaurant in Lower Merion Township

TL;DR: Osushi is a clean, delicious & fresh restaurant with many options for people who have dietary restrictions. I highly reccomend it. Great staff and service.

———— It is beyond amazing. The staff get to know you after a while, they’re hard working people, and are extremely attentive & accommodating.

The food is delicious. I’m a vegetarian personally, and I’ve found that this place has so dozens of options for me and if there’s something I want I could have it requested without meat. As a sushi bar, they also have non-sushi items like fried rice, & etc.

I highly recommend their spring rolls and avocado salad (which has THE BEST dressing). For people on a diet, the Torch Roll and Crazy Tuna Roll can be made with no rice and I’ve heard they’re amazing. For vegetarians, any of their sushi rolls under the vegetarian section are great.

As someone who’s tried almost every sushi restaurant in the main line, specifically in areas such as Ardmore, Bryn Mawr, Wynnewood, Bala Cynwyd, etc., I think Osushi is by far the best.

They have a newly added bar area and can provide alcoholic beverages. Friday nights and Saturday nights are their busiest days. It can get noisy (which I saw other people complaining about in their reviews), which is expected when their restaurant is packed (it’s many’s favorites). Nonetheless, it’s not noisy to the point where you can’t hear nor have a conversation at your own table. If you want a whisper-like environment, go on a weekday. Or go elsewhere. This place is lively! 💁‍♀️😋

Atmosphere wise- they’ve recently expanded into a closed store next door and it’s spacious and romantic. Plenty of room for big parties. Good for date night or a family night out. Available on most delivery sites. Parking lot across the street and parking available in-front of restaurant. I personally take out, dine in, and do delivery. Food isn’t cold with delivery and I have no issues with it on DoorDash...

I almost feel bad leaving this review because the food is quite good but service is lacking. We went for main line restaurant week and the set course is $40 per person. Not super expensive but not exactly cheap either. We were seated and within just a minute or two we were approached for our orders. Not yet ready, we asked for a little time. Waitress returned, took our orders and brought them quickly. What I found uncomfortable was the frequent “you need anything else?” while clearly we had just begun. The first time was appreciated but the subsequent times seemed to just be to determine how far along we were. The set course included a desert, which was brought out with even asking if we were ready, ALONG WITH THE CHECk!! The reservation was 6:30 and we were handed the check after about 35 mins. Plates were cleared the moment the chopstick were put down. I understand they want to get as many patrons served as possible but I felt very rushed. It is truly a shame as our first went so well, we made this reservations as our...

I was hoping to get a table with a friend last night at around 6:30pm. Upon arrival, there was one disgruntled customer saying it was not worth it due to the wait and another told the hostess off for shooing away some girls. When we finally asked for a table for 2, the hostess grabbed some menus and checked to see if there was a table available for us. She completely disregarded that she was taking care of us and proceeded to deal with 3 take out orders (all of which were not ready). She finally got to checking the tables on her screen and stated that there were multiple reservations ahead of us and we would not be seated for another hour. We therefore left and found another sushi restaurant. We understood that it was busy, but my friend and I found the interaction with both the other customer and us to be dismissive and disorganized. Unfortunate as I have had a previous good dining...
