We've visited Ogawa several times over the past few months, and we've never been disappointed. The sushi is delicious and fresh, and the staff is fantastic. Ogawa has quickly become one of our favorite restaurants in Morgantown!

So so good!! Looks like a whole in the wall but very tasty and good prices. A lunch meal is $8 and has a large amount of food. Spicy noodles were amazing!! Friendly service. Already planning to return:)

Best lunch spot! Get the Bento box special and you will not be disappointed, and you will not leave hungry! Excellent fresh sushi, fantastic Bulgogi, and light crispy tempura. If I could give 6 stars I would!

I'm a regular at Ogawa! Best sushi in Morgantown, in West Virginia, maybe even on the east coast. ���

Service...eh...food...yay!. Had lunch with a friend. Service wasn't the best; took time to get water refills even after requests. Had multiple people waiting on us which was confusing. Food, however, was great and prices reasonable so I can overlook the service. Loved the Ramen. Can't wait to come back!

Absolutely Amazing. I usually don't eat a lot of Japanese, Chinese, or Korean food, so when my friends finally convinced me to try Ogawa I was skeptical to say the least. The restaurant looks a little run down from the outside, but the inside of the place is really warm and is extremely clean and well kept. After being seated, we were presented with their normal menu, as well as their sushi menu. The sushi menu is huge, with way too many choices for me to even be able to comprehend. I decided instead on a Lunch Box, specifically the Bul Go Ki box. The box came with marinated beef, California roll, salad, rice, shrimp tempura, as well as Miso soup. Everything in the lunch box was spectacular, and the marinated beef was to die for. I had absolutely no complaints, and I cannot wait to return. Excellent!!!

Outstanding Food!. This is one of my favorite restaurants! It is owned by a chef and he knows quality food. The sushi, rolls, miso soup, lunch box, and ginger dressing are especially good. We really enjoy dining there, and recommend it.

Great Sushi, lots of college kids. My husband and I went here for Valentine's Day. I had the Paradise roll, which had an incredible blend of sweet and spicy. Excellent! My husband found a great steak dish that satisfied his aversion to all things sushi. We had a wonderful meal! Wonderful service, accomadating staff. Bathroom was freezing...Parking is small, but we got front row. Place was super crowded with college kIds, but it was Valentine's day. We'll definitely go again!

The best Japanese restaurant in WV. I've been eating sushi for a long, long time. This is the best place to eat sushi and sasimi in West Virginia. Trust me, other Japanese restaurants in Morgantown are jokes.

So Yummy. This is easily the best sushi place in town. Although a bit sketchy from the outside, the inside is very nice. The rolls are huge and you are definitely getting the most for your money. Not only that, but the other non-sushi menu items are delicious as well. Some of the servers are a bit inexperienced but other than that I have no complaints. There is a huge selection of rolls and other meals. Highly recommend!

Best Sushi Place in Morgantown. My husband I have just started to really enjoy sushi in the past 5-6 years. We live in rural West Virginia and it is hard to find. There are other places that sell great sushi in Morgantown, but Ogawa is the best! It is reasonably priced, quaintly decorated and staffed with friendly chefs and servers.

Best of all, it is kid-friendly. The other sushi places in Morgantown are not.

Fantastic, quiet place!. Awesome place to go for a casual night and great food. Quiet atmosphere, decent prices, and fantastic sushi! Some members of the waitstaff and a little in your face but other than that I love the place! I will always come back for more!

Great when the students are gone!!. Ok so parking may be a bit sketchy but there is a little lot behind the old gas station.
Now the real fun begins. I always just push the other menu aside and start on my paper and pencil sushi order. All the regulars are there and some reeeeally inventive rolls. I went there for my best friend's bachelorette dinner and we had a canoe of sushi. She loved the spicy tempura roll. I loved the country boy roll (it had egg, cream cheese, salmon, tuna and asparagus). Delicious. I tried the infamous 'Love Roll' and it was pretty good! I like the simple vegetable rolls and Alaska rolls too. The ambiance is fantastic and the prices are very reasonable. The hours have expanded and the place rarely gets overcrowded like it used to. Love this place for casual and special occasion. I love how the new owners got very well versed staff and kept the old favorites on the menu. Well done, sir!

Fantastic Sushi!!. The sushi here is absolutely amazing!! I have tried sushi in several other cities and I still think that Ogawa is one of the best!! The rolls are large and the fish is always fresh!
The only downside is that the place is always super packed and it takes forever to get food. I guess when you are in that high of demand, it takes a little while for them to make all that food!!
Seriously one of my FAVORITE restaurants

I've tried sushi in so many cities, yet I find that ogawa is my favorite. Their love roll, WVU roll, and any spicy rolls are top notch. I'd recommend any sushi lover to their establishment.

Great Food, Well Priced. My wife and I have been here a dozen times over the last several years. We don't have any money, so the fifty dollars we spend here is a real splurge. While I can't say we've never had a negative experience (my wife and a carload of her friends had one nightmare visit), I can attest to Ogawa's general consistency: consistently good, and truly well-priced for decent sushi. (I would know--I've eaten sushi in Houston, Boston, Seattle, and points in between.)

Sometimes the crowd noise or music is distracting, and the place can get busy, and the service a bit slow, on a weekend, but I've never been particularly annoyed by any of it. This is our "everyday" date-night restaurant; as long as Ogawa keeps offering high quality sashimi and sushi, I don't see that changing.

New Management. I tried Ogawa with trepidation after new management took over, but the sushi is still excellent. I'm not a lover of mayo, so I wish there weren't so many rolls with spicy mayo, but that's a universal complaint I have for sushi places. And no fist bumping while I was there.

Best in town by far. I love this place. I tend to go at least once a week and the sushi is great. I've never had a single piece of fish that tasted old or not fresh. The chefs behind the counter are friendly and the staff will answer any question you have and if they don't know they'll find out. The decor is a little stale but the food makes up for it easily. If you want sushi in Morgantown (or WV) go here!

Everyone should go there. The best place in the town... I am a sushi lover, I have been eating sushi for the past 18 years, I was surprise that in the middle of WV I could get a very good sushi.

Not only exceptionally great food, but super friendly servers. Parking made me anxious but if you’ve been there before, you’ll know there’s a dedicated parking lot behind the restaurant.

Looks like a hole in the wall but a very cozy and delicious restaurant on the inside. Servers were nice and when a mistake was made with my order, everyone promptly fixed the mistake and made sure I walked out with a smile on my face. I truly think it's the best sushi place in Morgantown.

Easily the best sushi in Morgantown. Consistent nigiri and sashimi. Inventive - and large - maki. Very good cooked Korean food as well. The bulgogi box is hard to beat for a lunch special, and for non-sushi eaters there are dozens of other cooked options as well. Takeout orders are always packed in a visually pleasing manner, and they make sure you have plenty of utensils and sauces separately. For a landlocked area, this sushi can’t be beat.

The sushi is great but they need a better air filtration system there. I always smell like fried food when I leave.

The staff are friendly and the food is amazing. Definitely recommend the Sizzking Seafood Bowl if you're into various seafood, or the Nabeyaki Udon if you like noodle soups. The Tako Yaki is good for an appetizer, but do note it has octopus if that's not your thing. Can't say much about the sushi, haven't tried it, but it looked good. You get a little miso soup bowl when you come in, which is pretty good. Definitely give this place a chance!

One of my favorite places to eat! I love the sushi rolls here! The bento boxes are amazing also. But my all time favorite is the seafood okonomiyaki. If you have not tried okonomiyaki you really need to it is beyond amazing and Ogawa makes the best in town. Also the poseidon roll is insane. I love eel and this roll (even though it is $20) is delicious and worth the price. The eel is so good. By far my favorite roll in town and my favorite place to get sushi.
