   I made reservations for my cousin and I. We were celebrating her 30th birthday. We arrived about 10-15 minutes late (6:30pm our reservation was at 6:15) but I called (about 6:10) to let them know, traffic was bad. They said it was okay and upon arrival they immediately sat my cousin down while I parked the car. There is a lot located near the side of the building. For almost 2 hours of being there I paid about $16 for parking you may get lucky and find free street parking, I have before. Greg was our server he was very kind and attentive the whole time. They made custom menus for us that said “happy 30th birthday!” that we loved so much, my cousin got to keep her menu to take home. We got complimentary tacos to start which was so nice. We ordered the “titan up” and “playboy” sushi rolls, highly recommend titan up we also paid the additional $15 to make the steak on top Wagyu instead of whichever it comes with. We also got the candied sticky ribs. The ribs are always a must have for us it comes in 3 ribs with a few delicious pickled cumber slices on the side. Greg also gave us an extra small plate full of those cumber slices it’s very light and a good palate cleanser. Last but not least we also shared the spaghetti lobster and it was the best spaghetti I ever had. For sure going back just for that lobster spaghetti soon! To drink we got the jelly shots that comes in a can, this is also something we have to get every time it’s just too good. We tried a few of their special drinks they were also good. Finally we got to dessert which the birthday girl picked out of course. We had this chocolate cake that had a coffee flavor and blueberries on the side. It was such a nice balance we really enjoyed the dessert so much and that was also complimentary. Overall we love O-Ku we’ve never had a bad experience here from the food to the service it always exceeds our expectations. I highly recommend coming to this restaurant.

   Best experience I've had in a long time. Talon was an amazing server and bartender. Jimmy was a great bartender as well. Food is best Sushi in Nashville. Would highly recommend. Service was literally the best I've ever experienced.

   O-Ku is always fantastic, but my fiancé and I came to celebrate our engagement tonight and they really went above and beyond for us especially Sarah and Julia and we couldn’t be more thankful! We will definitely continue coming here

   Normally a solid 5 stars…. I’ve been going there regularly for 3 or more years, but the server last night was unusually terrible. Not normal, usually 5 stars across the board- but this trip was so bad it was worth noting.
