    Not the best meal we’ve had here in terms of service, but still one of the better places downtown.

    I loved the atmosphere and the waitresses that serve us are always so friendly! Only complaint is the noise level sometimes I have hard time hearing or making conversation. I was there by myself for happy hour last time at 4pm, then before that my friend Ashleigh and I were there. I was also there a few months ago right before the hurricane two times with my friend Caroline. I had happy hour the last two times. The place is so beautiful and nicely decorated. I received excellent service as when the miso soup was too salty, not only did they take it off the tab but also provided free salmon appetizer for us! I received the free smaller portion of the salmon appetizer twice already! Oku is easily my favorite sushi place in town and in general. I wish I knew about Oku earlier. I love the Daimyo and Reedy River rolls. Even bigger bonus that the reedy river roll is half off during happy hour! The non alcoholic drinks are great also, especially the strawberry one. I get that every time I come there. The wagyu toast is absolutely delicious. The otoro shots are too sour for me so I won’t be getting that again. The Daimyo roll is my favorite. I love the otoro sashimi though it’s so juicy and fatty which I love!! I had the otoro nigiri appetizer one time and think it’s pricey for only one piece of sushi. The rock shrimp is great also. The crab cakes were just okay so I won’t be getting those again. My friends and I absolutely enjoyed the doughnuts Japanese style as they melted in our mouths and the miso sauce is absolutely divine!! I has the lychee sorbet with dragonfruit boba once also. I love this place and can’t wait to come back!!

    The sushi quality has gone down hill since first opening. The fish is not as flavorful and as some pieces were rather bland and each piece tasted like the other. We only ordered sashimi and nigiri - so nothing to mask the flavors. The service was ok but an attitude of condescension sprinkled with “I don’t really care that much”. We sat at the counter. There are not nearly enough sushi chefs for the volume of rolls and sushi being prepared. While we never order rolls (we don’t see that as sushi). It is concerning that each roll is wrapped in plastic wrap prior to cutting (unless nori is the outside wrap). So micro pieces of plastic are being cut into the rolls with each pass through of the knife. The ambience of the restaurant and location are wonderful. However, given the prices for sashimi and nigiri the quality should be better than last night. It was somewhat disappointing.
