To celebrate a graduation, you can choose a number of restaurants in the area. My child was graduating from The Norwalk Conservatory of the Arts and chose OKO Kitchen. Not a chain restaurant and not very big. As it turns out, it was a perfect combination for an UH-MAZ-ING meal! Literally, upon entering the front door, a curtain pulls to the side as we entered the restaurant. A nice little touch like you're entering a whole new world. It's a quaint little spot, maybe 20 or so tables total and some bar seating available. We had a small group of 7 and fit right along the far wall. Asked for some special favors from the hostess and she was more than accommodating. Our server, Julia was phenomenal. She gave us some time to socialize, choose our meals and looked after us as if we were her only table (while taking care of a couple other tables at the same time). Very personable and helpful along the way, not just someone who took our orders only never to be seen again. She had some great suggestions and was very knowledgeable about the menu. The food was spectacular! I initially ordered a few appetizers for the table. She suggested a Makimono dish which was a selection of the same items I requested and a few more! Perfect for sharing! We enjoyed a variety of entree selections from their menu including poke bowls, sushi and grilled meats and fish. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meals. The desserts were a perfect casual finish to our meal! Can't say enough good things about our experience at OKO Kitchen. The service and food were spot on! Keep on Yelp'n! read more

Our first time to Oko and would go again! We sat at the bar (thinking it was a sushi bar when we made the reservation, but it is a regular bar)- our fault- no big deal. The bartender was lovely and friendly without being annoying. The scallop hand roll was a huge win! My husband had the tuna hand roll and also loved his. Then, we ordered the lobster and king crab hand rolls, they were also flavorful but still went back to the scallop! Delicious! We had the crab fried rice that was very tasty and a good portion- shareable when ordered with other items. We had an array of nigiri. It's a small restaurant with city vibes, friendly service. It was expensive and I'm not completely sure everything was worth the cost, for a special occasion, it is worth it. read more

I wouldn't go back. This place is trying so hard to be something it's not. It's a poorly executed riff on high end omakase Japanese at absurd prices. The nigiri pieces were good, but not as good as they should've been at that price. Oko claims to give small portions because they focus on quality. Not entirely true. Fish at this price should highlight quality fish, not have other ingredients and mayo sauces on it. Especially nigiri. They don't even have a true sushi bar, but the bar just looks into the kitchen, which is also not normal for a sushi place let alone high end omakase. The other menu items were so mid. The king crab fried rice seemed popular so I went with that. Nope. Basically just eating salt. This place should really be a Spanish tapas place. If you've been, you'll probably understand what I'm saying. read more

A great place for small Asian fusion bites and a special occasion! The dining area is quite small and intimate but the tables are beautifully set and the service is top notch professional. We decided to order the chefs special in which 5 pieces of sashimi were picked for us. Each melted in the mouth and tasted so fresh. Their ramen egg was delightful and the edamame had a unique seasoning. The parking can be difficult and it is a pricey meal but worth the beautiful flavors for a special occasion or apps. read more

What an AMAZING dinner on my actual bday. It made turning 50 a little easier. A huge thanks to my brother for setting up this special meal- it was fabulous. We loved everything we ate there esp the sushi and beef tartare on crispy rice. The service was great, our server was so kind and friendly and made sure we were taken care of. The ambiance was classy and pretty. Thanks for a great meal! I would love to come back here the next time we're in the area. read more

We made a reservation and went in wanting an omakase, we were told that wasn't possible at the time we sat which was totally okay but a little frustrating because there was no differentiation when reserving online. But that should have told our server that we were ready to spend an absurd amount of money on an experience. 15 minutes in we were finally able to order drinks. We saw our server running about tending to different tables, so we waited patiently. Then she came over to stand at the table beside us. They didn't need anything immediately. She stood, I tried to make eye contact to denote we were ready to order. She continued to look at the table beside us before abruptly turning and leaving. She proceeded to take other tables drink orders, someone ordered bottle service so they took precedence. 15 minutes later we were finally able to order food. I saw it was busy so i gave the benefit of the doubt but it felt as if until we spent a certain amount of money, we were largely ignored. We were also the youngest patrons in the resraurant. The quality of food and drinks were great, I would give that 5 stars. I've had better but it was still a very solid option. The hamachi was next level, best fish of the evening. The duck & foie gyoza were delightful, perfect bites. But I cannot get over the poor experience our server provided. I won't go out of my way to be back. The prices are not worth the dishes, despite the quality of fish. read more

They couldn't seat us on time and they were beside themselves. We were not in a rush, but they did everything they could to make us comfortable. Probably the best service I've ever had at a restaurant. Julie or Julia was the most amazing server. Pleasant, helpful and there when needed Then the food. Black cod sushi OMG. The miso soup was my favorite of all time. We tried so many delicious items it was insane. Then dessert. Hot Chocolate chip cookie to die for and the soft serve with oko bits. Phenomenal experience. read more

Was treated by my daughter for father's day, which made it very special. The place is cozy, with dark ambience and the service was spectacular. It is right on the corner of 133 and Post Road and they have a small Parking lot in the back, which seems to be shared by a few other restaurants, so Parking was a bit challenging if you want to park closer, otherwise there is a public garage on 133 that can be used. The food is on the pricier side, but if you want to enjoy the best sushi, this place simply ROCKED. Each piece was very flavorful and probably the best sushi I have had. This was accompanied with the hand rolls, which had a very cool presentation, wrapped in a seaweed cone. We also ordered the Marinated King Salmon Poke, which was awesome. For main course we had the Madeira-Miso Glazed Salmon, which came with grilled shiitake, baby bok choy, madeira butter. That shiitake mushroom was out of this world, very well done. Lastly my daughter insisted that I try their Matcha Kit Kat dessert, which came with peanut butter & hazelnut & matcha white chocolate, a very simple yet unique creation. Overall, great place to impress a date or for special occasions. Glad I was treated there! read more

This is an intimate and wonderful space for an extravagant dinner. While it is pricey, it's worth every morsel. The staff is incredible. I just wish they had a full bar instead of just their curated selection of spirits. Please note that bar seating is limited, so if you're interested in sitting at the bar, it's best to arrive early. read more

One of my favorite dining experiences I've had in a while! Oko was an absolutely amazing spot and such a cozy atmosphere to enjoy the most delicious and fresh sushi, tempura, appetizers, and entrees. Everything was thoughtfully made. It was truly like a work of art!! The service was great. Different servers came by and gave recommendations of what some of their favorite dishes were. Everyone working there was definitely super passionate about the food! read more

A classy way to experience Japanese cuisine! Love the vibe at this former firehouse. We visited on a Wednesday evening and they were packed, so this is definitely a popular spot, and for good reason! They have a great variety on the menu with some unique items that I don't see too often on typical Japanese restaurants, like the crab fried rice with quail eggs and wild mushroom bao. We really enjoyed the matcha Kit Kats for dessert! Impressive timing from the kitchen and professional staff. Definitely a great place to dine in Westport! read more

READ THE FINE PRINT before you order!! This is no longer the innocent Oko it used to be. I used to come here all the time and I made the mistake thinking that things are the same. I ordered my usual and, to save a little money, decided to forgo the Pellegrino and get a club soda instead. Little did I know... First, the miso soup: a tiny bowl of miso soup is now $8. Next, the chef's selection of hand rolls: used to be $18, now it's $30. And the kicker? That tiny glass of club soda, of which I had to order a bunch of "refills" to satisfy my thirst? $7 each time they brought out a glass. No free refills here. I spent more on what I thought was cheap club soda from the soda gun than I did on my very overpriced meal. Feeling disappointed and more than a little ripped off. read more

Hi! Hear from your parking lot. Maybe you should update your order online system like every other restaurant in the United States of America. I have never in my life ordered through that system but liking your food I went ahead, not my problem that the date is set to Sunday October, 27th. I think the biggest joke is my order was $118 with 20% tip. And all I ordered was sushi, and a poke bowl and considering I was already in your parking lot you felt the need to call my phone and tell me that you couldn't fulfill my order, I understand if you don't do takeout orders on Fridays. But I find it pretty disgusting that I was sitting in your parking lot, and you couldn't even spare a poke bowl and a couple pieces of sushi you will never get my business again and I suggest nobody else give them business either read more

The food here was great! Not really a traditional Japanese place but the fusion that the chef included was amazing. I highly recommend wagyu beef and foie gras sushi. In addition to the interesting sushi selection, their hot food was great too. Service was good but the restaurant was very crowded and kind of loud. Make sure you make a reservation days ahead of time. read more

My friends and I wanted something a bit different for our Friday night outing so they settled on OKO Kitchen. This was my first time dining in Westport (I try not to explore non-diverse cities in CT) so I knew it'd be interesting. There was no parking when we got there so we parked in the garage for free across from the parking lot. We sat by the window and the waitress came to take our drink orders. I immediately noticed her off-putting attitude but I didn't want to jump into conclusions in the event that it was just me. Since this was ALL our first time here, we asked several questions as to what to order and she was extremely rude, purposeful antagonistic and downright mean. I immediately asked for her to be switched out and the manager served us the remainder of the evening. We ended up getting several hand rolls, the lobster roll, octopus and the wild mushroom bao. The food was decent but I've certainly had way better sushi. Our drink, the Ninja, was really good as I got mine with Bourbon. Overall, I will absolutely never rerun back to this establishment. For the waitress to be as rude as she was, and for the food to just be decent, it's certainly not worth the drive or the price ($211 for such a little bit of food). read more

Had the Omakase experience for our Anniversary. We were seated at the chef's table, which is a counter in front of the kitchen. Staff were friendly and attentive. Top notch service. As for the food, we found it good but not mind blowing. The sushi's were good quality and they were often served with a sauce or seasoned salts. We thought the flavors of the condiments overpowered the seafood. There were some variations on the courses from the menu posted online, but it was 90% the same. We also had the wine paring, which we would rate as very good although not spectacular. It was curated by the friendly bartender who is knowledgeable and attentive. It did not quite live up to our expectations compared to other omakase experiences in this region. So the final verdict is that it was good but needed to be more refined for the price point. Ultimately, we probably would not do this again. read more

Here's my take away: overpriced, foofoo nonsense. NOT a real sushi restaurant. They are trying way too hard to impress by adding toppings to just about every dish. Toppings or gilding that's entirely unnecessary -- perhaps to disguise the sub par quality of the food. For example: the ramen egg: a well made ramen egg needs nothing. It stands on its own. And if made properly is bliss. But Oko's ramen eggs were not properly prepared and cooked and smothered with toppings to make them "fancy". Same with the edamame. Why add unnecessary seaweed slices? The best sushi is pure, honest and unpretentious. ...and that's how I would summarise Oko: very pretentious. Sashimi slices so thin they're practically transparent. And cost twice as much as elsewhere. It's a trap for unsophisticated diners who think that by paying more they're getting good food. Newsflash: wrong. We hated it. Left after two appetisers and one entree, then went and had dinner elsewhere. And to make matters more disappointing, our waitress was a bee-ache. read more

The food is extraordinarily average with extraordinary prices. It was fine, but middle of the road. Service was a little bizarre, although not rude. It was a fine dinner for offensive prices. read more

When we are in Westport, OKO is our go to place for celebrations.  The food is good, the vibe is upbeat and they have some tasty cocktails.  Just remember to make a reservation enough in advance or you'll be eating really early or really late.   This last double birthday, we enjoyed a whole range of appetizers and entrees from the shiro chips and dip to the tempura, salmon poke, a wonderful hand roll and the chef's selection of tempura.  We also liked the spicy squid and pork belly lettuce cups though the lettuce cups provided were really small.  The duck and foie gras dumplings and the okonomiyaki were also good.  Our favorite every time though, are the sticky ribs.  It's a good thing they give everyone a sachet of hand wipes after because we dive right in and don't hold back.  If you are the birthday celebrant, oko presents you with a candle and a big cookie. It's a nice touch. Our favorite drinks tend towards the sweet side with the Clementina and the heat of passion.  The pineapple express and the one knight only are also good.  If you prefer more of the taste of the alcohol then the oolong old fashioned may be the one to choose.  The parking lot had construction the last time we dined at OKO and so the handicapped spaces are on the other side of the building and it is a bit of a hike to get to the entrance. Be careful of where the sidewalk dips down a bit.  The restaurant is lively but this last visit was not as overwhelmingly noisy as our last one.  Perhaps it was because we reserved late and got one of the very early seatings... read more

If you are a foodie, I highly recommend Oko for their Oko-kase. Chef choice, 14 courses, food experience that is a true wonder. You need to call them for a reservation at least 48 hours in advance. The service was top notch with every course explained. Make sure you are hungry because there is a lot of food! We also had mocktails that were very good. We would love to do it again in the near future. read more

So came here with LRoth back in January for a birthday dinner. Place was in Westport...kinda hidden. Their parking lot itself is on the smaller side but there's plenty of parking close by. The space is intimate and modern. Definitely make a reservation in advance. Service was great. We were constantly checked on. Our server gave us great recs on ordering sake. We tried the fried chicken bao, which was good. Interesting mix of flavors. We each got the 10 piece chef selection omakase. The cuts were pretty good but mid. It won't be the wagyu and otoro cuts. It was a fun time with pretty good food. I wouldn't go expecting high level omakase that you may find in the City though. read more

The tempura brussel sprouts were the best sprouts I have ever tried, and I'm not typically a big fan of Brussel sprouts, so that's saying alot! They were teeny tiny and light and crispy and had the most delicious and subtle sauce on them. I would come back just for those!! The sushi was good, the hand rolls were my favorite. Would definitely like to come back to OKO again and try some more things, they have a really interesting menu. read more

Anyone wanting authentic sushi should experience top restaurants serving that in New York City. CT versions are poor examples. Oko serves "sushi", some of which the menu lists as from Japan, with fussy toppings usually containing mayonnaise among other ingredients- a total lack of understanding what sushi is. A recent New York Times article about sushi restaurants recommended by chefs in Tokyo states that part of the experience is the interaction between the sushi chef and the guest. This is totally lacking here. One should be able to savor the subtle differences between different fish. The miso soup, a hallmark of quality for a sushi restaurant, lacked any distinctive taste. The small restaurant dining room has a large west facing window that makes evening sunsets very uncomfortable for diners. The hard chairs no less so. Quality fresh fish in sushi restaurants is expensive, so be prepared for a significant bill. read more

I have been to OKO about 4 times before and was really looking forward to my dinner there with friends last Friday. First I must say some of the sushi is just mind blowing delicious. Worth the price. However, Other elements fell short and were in my opinion way over priced. The mushroom dumplings tasted very meh and underwhelming. The tuna poke was rice heavy and lacked the wow factor and flavor elements I would've expected.. All of this would've been ok had our waitress not been so insufferable. One of my friends is a vegetarian and asked very politely about several of the dishes and if they would be appropriate for her (if you've been here you know the menu can be confusing and overwhelming) our waitress was impatient and immediately seemed annoyed and combative. It made for a tense situation and honestly I dreaded every time she neared our table. For a dinner for 3 at over $400 I shouldn't feel like I'm walking on eggshells with the waitress. For this level of dining the service should be far more accommodating and elegant. read more

We enjoyed our visit to Oko - a fine dining, upscale sushi, Japanese restaurant. Located in an historic former firehouse, the ambiance and decor is gorgeous. We sat at the bar which was very pretty. Our cocktails were interesting and well made. I appreciate when drinks are creative and unique and we definitely got just that. The dishes and sushi we ordered were delicious and again, creative. We ordered some sushi crispies which are pieces of sushi served over a crisped rice cube. Loved them so much!! Great flavor and texture. The miso soup was excellent as were the lemongrass dumplings and the mushroom bao. It is a pricier restaurant but I'm a believer in you get what you pay for. The food and drinks we received were for sure delicious and it was a nice date night. read more

I wanted to like this place. Liked the concept - fusion food, trendy decor, and nice location. However, why on earth is it necessary to add to almost every single dish Japanese mayonnaise - on your sushi, as a side with the tempura, excessively spread onto your OKOnomiyaki... Window seats in the summer can get very warm from the afternoon sun, and depending on the direction you are facing, the sun can be shining right into your eyes. The dining experience is decent. They use mostly plastic dinnerware and single-use chopsticks which I found a bit weird. read more

Oko Kitchen, though slightly cramped and drafty due to seating being so close to the door (which left blustery cold air in the dining area), was a very solid culinary experience. For appetizers, we ordered Two Spicy Wagyu Crispies ($9 each), which were a bite of pure artistry. Tender, succulent beef, with crispy potato tempura and a raw quail egg yolk nestled on top, adding a layer of rich creaminess to the heat. We also went for the Duck and Foie Gras Gyoza ($18 for four pieces), which was perfection as well. They were perfectly crisp, and browned beautifully, with the perfect thickness of the dough and tender soft filling. For entrees, we ordered the Wagyu Hangar Steak ($35), Crab Fried Rice ($28), and another appetizer, Sticky Ribs ($24). The hangar steak was tender, but slightly undercooked (it arrived rare instead of medium rare) and was lacking seasoning. The potato garnish also lacked some salt, but the carrots it was served with were buttery and satisfying. The Crab Fried Rice was richly flavored and the quail eggs on top were a nice touch. The sticky ribs were nailed perfectly in cook and in appearance, with the meat tender and practically falling off the bone, though the level of salt was a tad overpowering. Overall, despite mild imperfections, we would recommend Oko Kitchen enthusiastically and would return without hesitation. read more

My wife recommended that we try Oko Kitchen based on another favorable review and we were simply delighted from start to finish. Our masterful server Stephanie was wonderfully fluent about the different options, was not overly forceful with her recommendations but was not afraid to steer us in a specific direction once she knew our interests and personal tastes. The sushi heralding from the famous Tsukiji fish market in Tokyo (and tasted market fresh!) was, without exception, the best I have on the East coast including Nobu in its heyday. The presentation was beautiful and every dish was a feast for the senses. Stephanie started us out with nigiri. Bluefin tuna in a zesty marinade, cedar smoked black cod which was wonderful, and king salmon which was exquisite. Next Stephanie recommended the "Crispies" (ask for them by name) which included an amazing Wagyu beef and quail egg - such a lovely juxtaposition of flavor and texture. She also suggested spicy tuna which was very spicy indeed but very flavorful accented by its gochujang aioli. And for the finale, Stephanie brought out 3 delicate hand-rolled sushi of conical shape in a little wooden holder. Among this threesome was spicy bluefin tuna, Ora king salmon which was spectacular and spicy Hamachi. What a way to end a perfect meal. My wife is not a fan of sushi and had an expertly prepared and beautifully presented bento of Wagyu beef and other delights. It is a rare and cherished combination when service, presentation and cuisine are all flawless. Stephanie's masterful service, the superb food and its carefully crafted presentation all made for a night we shall not soon forget and a new restaurant that has become an instant favorite. It is very easy to do things moderately well. Oko excels in every dimension. Hats off Chef Brian Lewis and his team. read more

Had the most phenominal meal at OKO in Westport last night. Can't believe it'd taken us this long to check out this spot! Sushi lovers, you have GOT to give this place a try. We were amazed with how many flavors were packed into each small bite. To start, we got two FANTASTIC drinks. We finished them craving another. The Gingered Ninja was reccomended to me by the waitress and it did not dissapoint a ginger lover like myself! We had to get the crispies because we saw them all over instagram. We thought the tuna crispies were great, but were completely blown away by the wagyu beef crispies complete with a quail egg on top. The flavors were so incredible and if you're going to get anything on the menu, definitely make those your top pick. The sticky ribs were as good as they were photogenic, and the two pieces of sashimi we got were PACKED with flavor even though they were just one bite each. Ramen eggs were also a popular item that we had to try. Overall, this place is a quite pricey, but for the beautiful ambiance you get with outdoor seating on the water and the incredible flavors we experienced, this place is a 10/10! read more

My boyfriend took me here for our first night out since pre-COVID times on a Saturday night. We wanted to try something new, as every time we came to Westport we couldn't resist a certain taco place nearby... We were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food, atmosphere & staff, and the unique, inventive fusion dishes. We ordered a few (lol) things: Chefs selection of hand rolls Chefs 5 piece nigiri omakase Gochujang grilled corn OKOnamiyaki pork belly dish Chocolate cake Salmon crispy rice Standouts were the omakase, hand rolls and grilled corn. The corn was amazing, an homage to Mexican street corn, but OKO style! Smothered in gochujang, grilled, piled high with the most scallions I've ever seen in one place, and drizzled with spicy aioli. WOW. like nothing I've had before. Sweet & spicy, umami from the gochujang, and a satisfying fresh crunch from the scallions. I want to recreate this! Sushi was fresh and prepared with accompanying sauces or additions to enhance the flavor. Hand rolls where delicious. My favorite was the yellowtail with a spicy mayo sauce. The setting was actually amazing - most COVID-era dining setups are ok, doing the best they can despite the circumstances. I never hold it against them. But this was above expectations! Socially distanced tables near the boardwalk, lit with a warm glow from nearby heat lamps, and a beautiful view of the water. I wish they could make it permanent! The staff was amazing, especially when a miscommunication occurred with a part of our order. I commend them for their professionalism, and was consistently impressed with the level of service. It can't be easy to work like this right now, but they made it look easy and I throughly appreciate them. Definitely try out OKO, especially right now when you can eat outside! read more

Went there tonight- the food presentation was amazing but the service was... well terrible. Drinks were basically forgotten, some of the food was forgotten, and above all - while the food was decent it wasn't worth $400+. We had A5 beef, Wagyu beef, the duck Foie Gras, super fatty tuna with caviar, blue fin tuna, spicy salmon, you name it we tried it. The best part - the drinks. Those were amazing as I had the Pineapple Express and my wife had some Pink drink she loved. We were really exited to try Oko but I would not recommend it. Missing dishes, subpar service and the food to value was just not there. We won't be going back. read more

Finally got that first real night out since like March...and OKO did not disappoint! The outdoor space they have is awesome - on the lawn behind the restauraunt right next to the river. We tried a bunch of little things to share and each ordered the chef selection of nigiri and chef selection of hand rolls (lay off, first dinner out since pre pandemic) I HIGHLY recommend the gochujang corn - somehow it tasted like meat. The hand rolls and nigiri are great and the fish is very fresh. Topped it all off with the ooey gooey chocolate cake because why not. If you're in the area and looking for great sushi and unique fusion bites you wont go wrong with OKO read more

This should be considered a fusion Japanese Latino American restaurant. So should you be desiring an authentic Japanese meal you may want to pass. If you are searching for a hint of Japanese, then this may suit your tastes. The nigiri selection at first seems an attraction. However, the quality of fish is not up to par for the amount charged. Furthermore, the cook needs to use proper knives and technique to obtain a clean cut of the fish (even if they are previously frozen fillets). Many of the slices of fish were butchered versus finely cut. Either a dull or dirty (not wiped between cuts) knife was used. IMO the fish tastes like previously frozen, thawed, and lack the quality & technique of high end Japanese restaurants but priced similar ($6-$22/piece). The sushi rice tastes flat without the proper technique of a rich saki - dashi preparation and cooling technique. Subsequently the fish and rice are seasoned and one dimensional sauces (taste like store bought kewpie, soy sauce, yuzu, etc) and toppings (sesame seeds, scallions, etc). The techniques for sourcing and food preparation remind me of a novice trying to overcompensate for lack of experience with fish and relationships with a proper Japanese vendor. This is an Average sushi establishment with higher price point but better ambiance. Not my cup of tea or in this case plate of sushi/sashimi. Overall, I would save time and money to dine at a Japanese restaurant in the city (ie NYC) or just visit the other non-Japanese establishments that serve them Yes same quality of sushi/sashimi with less sauce and toppings at a lower price point. read more

OKO Kitchen - Sushi Bars Near Me - Westport, Connecticut

I was just blown away by this place! We came with friends who had raved about OKO and I can totally see why. Drinks were masterfully done. They have a very nice selection of cocktails which mostly consist of interpretations of classics. Sushi was excellent both in quality and the thought put into each piece. Every type of fish received it's on special presentation designed to really set off the flavors. Fantastic all around. I won't say it's a negative (because I think the price was fair for the quality) but I could spend waaayyy more money here than I probably should....and leave drunk and stuffed! read more

Great restaurant. We loved the vibe, the service was good, and food was delicious. Our waitress gave us great recommendations but there is so much to choose from we'll have to come back a couple more times to try the rest of the menu. read more

PLEASE READ - This place was phenomenal. Best sushi I have ever had in my life - for the people who are commenting on small portions and expensive prices - I have a suggestion - go to pink sumo sushi or a hibatchi restaurant. It annoys me so much when people make comments like that which detract from the incredible experience my mom and I had at this restaurant. This is a very upscale, high end, luxurious food experience. Not an all you can eat buffet. Also, why would anyone comment on the fact that they use wooden chopsticks and plastic plates? The plates are artfully round, not cheap in any way and allow you to focus on the true star of the show at this place which is the food. What a ridiculous comment. Lol. ANYWAY - This place is for people who truly appreciate the ART and BEAUTY of delicious food. Every piece of nigiri was delicately placed on top of the perfect amount of rice. The crispies were unreal. And the cocktail (I got the Clementina) was absolutely amazing. Not too sweet, extremely cold, and quite refreshing. Everything that came out of this kitchen was extremely thoughtful and artfully done. This is NOT the place to bring your young children or teenagers. Amazing date night spot. Our waiter helped guide us on selecting a lovely array of nigiri. DEFINITELY come here if you love delicious sushi. It melted in my mouth! We also got the scallop entree which was amazing. 10/10. OKO you are unforgettable and amazing. Oh also I loved the pumice stone soap in the bathrooms - so awesome. read more
