ST. CLAIRSVILLE - It’s been a long time coming, but the official opening of the area’s newest restaurant has been worth the wait. Osaka Steak House opened for business at the Ohio Valley Mall a little over a week ago. The opening of the Oriental steak house had been highly anticipated for several months, but the kind of attention to detail that comes with every dish was the same kind of attention to detail given to the renovation of the space located just off the mall’s main entrance. The family-operated business owned by husband and wife teams of Tony and Amy Peng, and Joe Wong and Linda Lim, remodeled the new Osaka Steak House themselves. The finished product brings an impressive motif to the eatery, which offers a sit-down dining area, carry-out area open to the mall’s main corridor, a sushi bar and dining areas at hibachi tables where expert chefs cook the food right in front of the customers. “It took a long time,” Tony Peng said of the remodeling.
