A popular Lexington sushi restaurant will be opening a second location in 2024.
Osaka Japanese Restaurant, which has a location at 3805 Dylan Place Suite 130, is opening a new restaurant next year in Great Acres, the new shopping center under construction off Leestown Road.
The new restaurant will be next to the new Biscuit Belly and the new Ramsey’s Diner that opened in the fall of 2023.
Owner Su Chen said that she hopes to open the second Osaka location in about seven months and that the first restaurant will stay open.
Chen said the second Osaka will be bigger and more upscale, with a revamped menu.
The local restaurant is known for its extensive selection of chef special rolls, also serves teriyaki, tempura, hibachi and other Japanese and sushi favorites.
