    Excellent experience. Food was delightful. Beautiful decor for a date night. Great quality. One complaint was that the seats were a little too close together. Conversations couldn’t be private for real. There was enough noise however to keep us focused on each other.

    Our family with 2 college aged kids had a fabulous and fun experience dining at O-Ku as part of our holiday celebrations together. We had the Osusume chef tasting menu and loved every bit of it. Our outstanding server Elena described it as a tour of the menu. It included sushi and sashimi courses as well as delicious braised beef and dessert. We also enjoyed tasting different sake's and learning more about the flavor profiles. A great experience overall!

    Our dinner at Marcel was the best dinner experience I’ve had in 40+ years. The food was excellent but what took it over the top was how hospitable the staff was. Every staff member we interacted with was friendly and welcoming. It was like a family member who wanted to share their food with you. We weren’t rushed and enjoyed just sitting and chatting with ourselves and the staff. They treated everyone like a VIP. I encourage everyone to try Marcel and I’ll gladly recommend it and come back.
