"We’re visiting our daughter from out of town, and stumbled upon Oishi. The service was great, the food came out fast and it was hot and fresh. Vegetables were crisp and meat was tender. Delicious and reasonably priced. Highly recommend."

"Best Asian dishes I have ever had. The Shrimp was fresh and the chicken was cooked perfectly. The wasabi rocked. And the sauces on the Asian Sesame Chicken and the Kung Pao Shrimp were awesome."

"I cannot express enough on just how wonderful Oishi is! My husband and I eat here at least twice a month and it is easily our favorite restaurant in the Gadsden/Rainbow City area. The portions are wonderful for the amount you pay and the service is great! We 100% recommend!"

"Dine in experience: One of the best little hole in the wall asian restaurant I've experienced, and I can be very critical on my reviews. The food was excellently portioned, priced, timing, temperature, quality of service, taste, and presentation! I've only eaten here once and got the triple delight and the angel roll. Also got an order of shrimp egg rolls. My experience was excellent. I have a favorite restaurant where I live in Denver. I have to say I'm jealous of this place. Just the bang for your buck is amazing! I paid twice as much for this kind of quality where I live. This is not your average cheap Asian food restaurant! It may not have the most extravagant building or the fanciest decor, but with the quality of the food and authentic vibe it is definitely a 5-star experience!!"
