    Our waitress, Abigail, was fantastic. She did a great job explaining the menu, her recommendations were spot on, and the food was great. Small but thoughtful wine. Definitely recommend.

    First time eating at O-Ku Alys Beach and we will be back! The sushi was so fresh and tasty. The cucumber and avocado salad and ginger salads were both excellent. And the hamachi appetizer was melt in your mouth wonderful. Staff was attentive and lovely.

    The restaurant itself definitely set the mood for the evening. The lights were dim and the decor was simple yet cozy. When we walked in, we were instantly seated at our table. We were celebrating my sisters birthday and the hostess placed a birthday card on the table that was signed by all the staff. The hostess was very sweet and patient. She took a picture of us to capture the evening. Shortly there after our waiter came out and went through the menu. He was very thorough! The chefs made complimentary sashimi that was brought to the table for us to share and it was full of flavor that filled your mouth with flavor! The sushi that came out as our main dish was just as flavorful! We weren’t rushed and were able to enjoy the evening. The dessert that we ordered was just as good as sushi we ate and left of feeling satisfied. O-Ku in Alys Beach is conveniently located off 30A and the experience had is worth coming back again!

    Unfortunately we didn’t have a great experience. We live here & looked forward to trying this new restaurant. Unfortunately, it wasn’t a great experience. Our waitress was lovely but food didn’t come out at same time and the drinks were very expensive & only half full. Food was good but not as good as we had hoped. Hopefully it gets better, it’s a beautiful restaurant.
