" If you're a sushi lover, you must check out Ototo Sushi Co.! Every time I've visited, the food has been top-notch, particularly their sashimi and hand rolls. The staff is attentive and always checks in. It's a lively place, so expect a bit of noise, but that's part of the charm. I will continue to come back for more sushi goodness. " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to Ototo Sushi Co. expecting a great meal based on the reviews and wasn't disappointed. The service was attentive and friendly, and I enjoyed the happy hour with reasonably priced drinks. The sushi was fresh, but I felt some rolls were a bit lacking in creativity. The real star was the dynamite scallop roll, which was deliciously rich and addictive. Overall, a solid choice for sushi! " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first time at Ototo Sushi Co., and it didn't disappoint! The ambiance was welcoming, perfect for a cozy meal with friends. We ordered several dishes, and every single one was bursting with flavor and freshness. The standout for me was the unagi nigiri; it was delicately grilled and divine. It's safe to say I've just added this cute spot to my regular dining rotation. Can’t wait to bring my family here! " (*Curated Review*)

" My group had a great dining experience at Ototo! We enjoyed a range of items from sushi rolls to appetizers, and everything was lovely. The hand rolls were particularly amazing with generous portions. Happy to share that our server was quick and efficient. The place gets busy at peak hours, but it’s definitely worth the wait for fresh, quality food. Definitely a place I'd recommend. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been here multiple times, and it never disappoints! The variety on the menu is impressive, and every roll I've tried has been deliciously crafted. Service can be a little slow during peak times, but the quality of food makes up for it. The ambiance is great for an upbeat night with friends. Overall, a reliable sushi restaurant that I recommend to everyone! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a perfect dinner experience here last night. The sushi was incredibly fresh and beautifully presented, each roll was solid in flavor! The servers were attentive without being overbearing. I loved the vibrant atmosphere; it truly felt like a festive night out. Ototo certainly sets a high bar for sushi restaurants in the area. Will come back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I heard great things about Ototo Sushi Co. and had to check it out. Unfortunately, it wasn't what I expected. The sushi was sub-par and lacked the freshness I was hoping for. We had long wait times for our food which detracted from the experience. While the environment appears lively and fun, I wouldn’t return to this location anytime in the near future.
