   Been to O-Ku more times than i can count, it’s my absolute favorite sushi place in Charlotte so hopefully this was just an off day. Just had several bad items that I normally love, and granted we were dining at 8:20 on a Sunday so i do understand that it’s tough on a non-prime time evening. Edamame was greatly over cooked, to the point of being mushy and falling apart as we tried to eat it, the yellowtail carpaccio looked like it was hastily filleted, with pieces of the silvery skin left on, and then sushi rolls we got were just ok. We were super excited to try the black magic box roll, but the overly powerful fishy taste left us leaving it on the table practically untouched after that first bite. The other rolls were decent, the spider roll, red dragon, spicy tuna crunch, and the Fuji, but again just not the spectacular level that I’m accustomed to from Oku. Again really hoping this was just an off night, definitely will still be back in the future to give it another shot!

   The food is great and fresh! The service is not great. We had a dinner reservation at 7:15, quick to bring water but waited over 20 mins for drinks. Our food was another 30 minutes before coming out. Our server said they were running behind. Food is always great but service needs a lot of work.

   The food and drinks were all amazing but the service was extremely slow. Although I do believe it was a slowness in the kitchen rather than with the wait staff.

   I have gone to Ok-u in CLT tons of times and have always had an amazing experience, but today we went for a birthday celebration (which they knew of in advance and nicely put “happy birthday” on the menu) and it was by far the worst experience I’ve had. The waitress instantly seemed annoyed with us, everyone else in the restaurant was offered fruit for their water (minor thing but just an observation), and our food took 50 minutes to come out. I completely understand they are busier on M/W due to the happy hour deals, but our waitress wouldn’t even acknowledge us in that time to let us know that we hadn’t been forgotten. Also every time I have been there for a birthday Ok-u has been nice enough to give the guest of honor a small complementary appetizer, which didn’t happen… so we thought they may have discontinued that. No - the table next to us had a birthday and got it but we didn’t. The food itself was good, I really have no complaints in that regard, I was just disappointed at the overall experience and wait time, especially for a special occasion.

    Amazing! Came here to celebrate my husbands acceptance into medical school. Multiple staff members congratulated him. As well as gave us free champagne and a delicious sample of their tuna. The server Justin was friendly and helpful. He was very funny as well. Made our experience all the better. I’m so glad I decided to dine with them for this special occasion. Will definitely be back!
