I have been to Osaka?s for Teppanyaki several times and each and every time has been an amazing experience. More often than not when I go there it is like a party that is just barely under control instead of a restaurant. The staff is all very friendly and looking to have as much fun as the customers are. While it isn't exactly cheap to eat there, I did notice the menu prices were on average 2 - 3 dollars less per item than they are at other Teppanyaki restaurants in the Twin Cities area. \r

The outside of the restaurant looks a little subdued, however the inside is very nice and well decorated. The location can't be beat as it is right on Highway 77 in Apple Valley. \r

I have been to pretty much every Teppanyaki restaurant in the area. Some are really good, one is not... But Osaka?s is the KING. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking to have a fancy dinner on a reasonable budget. The food is great and their fried rice is out of this world good. \r

The chefs are all friendly and flashy with their show. They do everything you would expect and then some. They are really good with the fire tricks. The sanitation while they are cooking is everything that could be expected, and they have the entire flippy fork and spatula trick stuff down better than most others. \r

If you are a fan of Teppanyaki I really must suggest this restaurant. If you have never tried Teppanyaki or have had a previous bad experience, give it another try with Osaka?s. You will have a great experience here.\r
Pros: Easy location off highway. Free Parking
