    Always a great meal! We ate near where they had a band in the lower level, so it was a little louder than normal, but the bad was great. Our food and service was amazing, as always here.

    We had a great experience dining at Otaru for the first time for my husband’s birthday. Angela was our server and she was wonderful - very knowledgeable and friendly. We each chose to do the Otaru course which included the salmon tataki appetizer, 6 pieces of chef selected premium sushi, a godzilla roll, and matcha ice cream. The selection and quality of the fish was top notch - best we’ve had in Pittsburgh. We even added on a few pieces of nigiri because we were so excited about how delicious it all was! We also enjoyed the blooming love and old fashioned cocktails with our meal. Highly recommend Otaru!

    The menu is quite limited, but possibly that is why what they serve is very good. The beet salad was exceptional, our entrees were quite good and the chocolate ganache was great. Wide selections of beer and wine. Service was great. Only suggestion - which is minor was both my husband and I had entrees with a sauce at the bottom of the chicken and salmon - both sauces were a little cold. Maybe it was plated before the meat and fish were done or maybe cool bowls??
