" I was a bit disappointed with my recent visit to O-Ku. While the food was good, it fell short of my expectations after hearing so many praises. The portions felt a bit small for the price point, and the service was a little slow at times. Maybe I just came on an off night, but it wasn’t enough to make me want to return soon. It's not a bad spot, but it could definitely improve. " (*Curated Review*)

" We celebrated our anniversary at O-Ku, and it was nothing short of magical. From the personalized menu that wished us a happy anniversary to the thoughtful recommendations from our server, every detail was taken care of. The food was exquisite, with a focus on fresh seafood and authentic flavors that transported us straight to Japan. The atmosphere was lively yet intimate, making it a perfect setting for celebration. A remarkable night that we will cherish forever! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had the most amazing dinner at O-Ku! Their attention to detail is remarkable—everything from the presentation of the dishes to the service feels top-notch. The sushi was fresh and creative. I particularly enjoyed the soft-shell crab roll. The ambiance mixed with the delicious food made for a perfect evening out. I can't wait to go again and bring friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at O-Ku was satisfying, but there weren't any standout dishes for me. Although everything was decent, I expected to be wowed given the hype surrounding this place. The service was courteous and prompt, but I felt like the sushi was missing a bit of creativity. If you're looking for classic sushi in a pleasant atmosphere, this place fits the bill. " (*Curated Review*)

" The experience at O-Ku was delightful overall. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted warmly. The atmosphere is cozy with beautiful decor. We ordered a variety of rolls, and they were all fresh and beautifully presented. The only downside was the somewhat high prices, but you pay for quality, I suppose. Service was on point, and the recommendations were spot-on. I look forward to coming back with my family! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had dinner at O-Ku and while the food was good, it didn't leave me with the wow factor. The pricing is on the higher side for the portion sizes offered. The service was attentive, but I felt there could have been more creativity in the menu. The ambiance was nice and suitable for a date night, yet I left feeling like I might explore other sushi places next time. " (*Curated Review*)
