    We recently celebrated our engagement at Ok-u, and the experience was absolutely phenomenal! From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make our special night even more memorable. They surprised us with beautifully designed menus that had “Congratulations” in the backdrop, adding such a thoughtful touch to our celebration. Not only that, but they also gifted us a picture frame, which was perfect since we need to print our engagement photos! As if that wasn’t enough, we were treated to a complimentary dish, showcasing their generosity and attention to detail. Our waitress, Madison, was outstanding—her warmth, attentiveness, and exceptional service made our night even more enjoyable. The atmosphere was perfect, the food was delicious, and every little gesture from the staff made us feel truly special. Thank you, Ok-u, for making our engagement celebration unforgettable! We highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for amazing service, thoughtful hospitality, and a beautiful dining experience.

    Happy hour sushi rolls are delicious and a great value. Edamame with truffle oil is finger-licking good.

    I surprised my boyfriend with this place for his birthday which so happens to also be on Valentine’s Day. Even though they were busy, they took time to personalize his experience and even gave him a gift and a free plate to try! Definitely was impressed with the food, atmosphere & service!

    Lively atmosphere a little hard to hear the server explain the menu, however, the service did not delay. Bartender went above and beyond walked around the bar to hand us our drinks as to not reach over the people were sitting in front of us. Everything we ate was amazing. Definitely will be returning!
