Oppa Sushi

A bit of a hidden gem in the Allston area! Walking past this spot for almost a year, I had no knowledge of this restaurant, nor how good it would be. Right when you are sat down they bring complimentary miso soup for the table, and as someone who is normally not a big fan, i thoroughly enjoyed it. I got the Allston roll and the Pink Lady Maki, and both were very good. The food was all great but the price was a bit higher then I would have thought. Will definitely try again in the future.

When you sit down you are given a large bottle of cold water to refill your cup, and a nice bowl of miso soup comes with I think every special. The basement location and fans keeps it nice and cool on a hot day. The music is a little loud , but it’s kinda fun to hear Party in the USA in 2023, takes you back to simpler times. The sushi was tasty, but I need to remember that I may want 24 pieces but I can only eat 12…

I feel that this place is underrated. Oppa is great and it has the potential to be more! This is hole in the wall authentic. Don't come here thinking it's a grandeur building because it isn't. It's small and homey but the sushi is worth it. Service was good - didn't hover and explained which rolls were placed where on the plate. We did have to ask for a water refill but it is one person serving/greeting/seating and he had a lot going on between others dining in and picking up take out so, give some grace! Miso soup is given complimentary when you are seated. It had a great flavor, a little room temperature but the tofu was cooked just right. We had the Red Dragon, Oppa Maki, Tornado Maki and Rainbow. The Tornado and Rainbow were our favorites! Their sake was light and mild, which I really liked (and I'm not a Sake fan). Reasonably priced sushi for being in Boston, averaged $30/person for our meal. If you're looking for somewhere low-key and has quality, check out Oppa!

This would make a good date night spot. After walking down a couple of stairs to the entrance and sitting down in a booth with moderately dim lighting, the setting feels intimate and cozy. The service here is also very quick - we were in and out in less than an hour. We started with the sashimi appetizer and then ordered the salmon love and tuna love, each of which come with 6 pieces of nigiri and 6 pieces of sushi, as well as a bowl of miso soup. The entrées were decent, though with each dish around the $25 mark, I was hoping for some flair to elevate the experience. Overall, this spot is nice but a bit pricey for what you get. I would consider returning and instead of sashimi, I'd try some of the special maki rolls to check out the chef's more creative side.
