   Best dining experience! Our waitress walked us through the server guided omakase with ease and consistently checked on us. Would definitely come back and do again.

   Well they just don’t miss!! Ryan was fantastic as always!!! So welcoming fun, knowledgeable, great recommendations and just a wonderful person to talk to. We went to the bar first and I don’t know her name but she was doing the bartender thing multi tasking making drinks asking what we needed, making fantastic old fashions. We got the salmon belly nigiri and of course it slapped, I let my friend order 4 rolls and we ate them all. Amazing flavor everything super fresh. O-Ku is probably my favorite restaurant in Charlotte it’s like the four seasons gave birth to a restaurant. Always an 11/10 experience!!! I took the sage friend their a few months ago after she beat cancer, I just asked for a special dessert to celebrate…. We were waited on like we were royalty and it was all super genuine it wasn’t forced they were absolutely celebrating her new life with us. That would have been plenty but they comped the entire bill and when I say we were celebrating we we’re celebrating drinks appetizers, all of the spoons just really not worrying the tab and they comped it anyway we both got a bit teary because of the gesture. I of course tipped a huge amount to thank them, I just want everyone to know it’s a high quality establishment that is excellent at what they do but they also have huge hearts and they care!! Thank you again we will be back soon

    My husband and I visited Oku to celebrate 10 years together. We mentioned it to the staff when we checked in at the host stand, and had the best night and treatment. Our waiter was lovely, and everyone was so sweet to us the whole time. We were gifted a glass of champagne and that was such a nice touch. Oku has always been one of my favorite restaurants in Charlotte, but this last trip definitely secured its spot at the top of the list.
