   Honestly, this place was perfect and the ONLY flaw was there they didn’t have some items on the menu. I food was delicious, staff was informative and friendly and I cannot wait to go back!

   We had a great time with Sarah and loved the food. It was a great value and delicious. There were so many great options BUT don't forget to save room for dessert. I can't remember the name but the donut hole balls are so amazing and the chocolate lava style cake was delicious.

   Everything was delicious. The waiter handled our questions and was very accommodating when we shared a personal experience with him. My fiancé and I went to Oku hours after getting engaged last year and, coincidentally, we were sat at the same table we ate at when we were engaged. He brought us a small dessert to commemorate the occasion. Aside from the food being absolutely delicious and reasonably priced, the service definitely elevated our experience. Oku has and will continue to be one of our favorite restaurants in DC.

    This place has a beautiful ambiance, great for special occasions and just a regular night out. Service was great, we had a very attentive waiter. I ordered the rock shrimp, and the crab crunch roll. The rock shrimp was bland; I had to order extra sauce. The crab crunch roll was ok, not the best crab roll, not the worst. I'd go back again for cocktails and sake and maybe try some different menu items.

    Came here for my wife’s birthday and it was an amazing experience. Beautiful ambience (we dined at the lower level but also checked out the upper level, which was equally nice), lighting, decor, music, and great food - we had sushi, the lobster dish that they cook table side, and the wagyu skewers. What made it extra special was this: I let the hostess know what the occasion was and she notified the waiter, who not only brought us a complimentary key lime pie dessert at the end of our meal but also a card with handwritten birthday wishes from the staff! Such a thoughtful and unexpected surprise! Will definitely be returning and recommending this place to others. Oh, and we ended up spending less than $200, with more than 20% tip, so we consider this a great value for the DC dining scene.

    Sushi order took 30 mins - waitress apologized and finally brought out the food. The kitchen never got the order. Disappointing for my first time there.

    O-Ku was a great experience for a belated Christmas date/dinner. The service was fantastic, the rolls we ordered delicious, the drinks nothing but delectable! My only wish would be that the drinks came prior to our dinner - I’m pretty sure all 5 sushi rolls arrived before our drink order. This took away from the vibe and experience just a tad. Regardless, our visit was memorable - would definitely recommend!

    Normally my experience here is stellar. A few unfortunate issues made it less than stellar. One thing I noticed right away is that no one read my reservation notes. In previous visits, I was really impressed that Oku actually takes the time to read your reservation notes and pays attention to if you’re celebrating something special or out for a Mama’s night out. When our server arrived to the table unfortunately he didn’t have those details. However, he did ask if it was our first time or if we were celebrating something special so we did have an opportunity to share then. Our appetizers were awesome. Unfortunately our main course and dessert was the downfall. I asked for a modification for my roll due to an allergy and it was not put in correctly so I didn’t receive what I ordered. It was fixed quickly and new roll was made but unfortunately for my friend, she had a piece of plastic wrap inside her roll and hers also needed to be sent back. Those two things were really unfortunate. It was nice to have my birthday acknowledged with a special dessert but unfortunately one of the spoons we were given had old crusted food particles on it. It was a while before the waiter came back to check in so we had to wait a while for a new spoon in order to enjoy the dessert. I was really surprised there wasn’t some form of compensation or at least an apology from a Manager for the piece of plastic wrap in one of our rolls. My drink was good but I felt nothing and I’m a light weight (literally one drink and sometimes not even the entire drink and I’m done). Seemed like they missed adding the vodka to mine. My friend enjoyed her drink and could tell that it contained alcohol. Hoping this was just a fluke as I’ve experienced stellar service as well as phenomenal food and drinks here in the past but last night didn’t come close. Despite all the issues, I was really touched by the handmade card given to me for my birthday. It was very sweet.

    The food was amazing! And the service was really good! We tried the omakase menu, and it was one of my best experiences with tasting menus! All the courses were well served, and had complex flavors built in with balance. Our server had excellent knowledge of the menu, and explained all the elements in each one of them. The restaurant was busy, but he was always making sure we had everything we needed and we were having a good time, truly omotenashi! It was my husband's birthday and they not only offered us a sake on the house, but also had a birthday card signed by the employees there, that was so nice! Highly recommend!

    My new wife and I had a late night reservation as we were stopping in DC on our way to our destination on our honeymoon. We got hungry quite a bit earlier than expected and showed up to the restaurant 2 hours early. They were packed but they told us we were more than welcome to site in their lounge and have a drink. The hostess ordered our drinks for us and after an hour or so let us know a community table opened if we were interested. We decided that we wanted to stick it out for our table given we were on our honeymoon. About 20 more min went by and they were able to seat us early! They were all pleasant and apologetic they couldn’t seat us earlier even though we were the ones extremely early. We were greeted with complimentary champagne and were congratulated on our marriage. The waiter we had was phenomenal and knowledgeable of everything. We proceeded to order a lot food back to back and EVERYTHING was amazing and of high quality. After we completed our meal we ordered a desert and were once again surprised with a dessert a pair of cocktails from the bar tender. On top of this a bunch of people on staff signed a little card and wrote words of encouragement on our new marriage. I have never once been to a place that was to this level of amazing service and the food all tasting as good as it was. I can’t wait to travel back In town for DC, because this place was unparalleled. I may travel back just for this place lol

    First, I’ll start off by saying that this is a 4.5 review but I rounded up because of the excellent service. Ambiance Pros: Very dim light and intimate. From the outside, it seems like such a small space but once you get in, its well beautiful and has great decor. We sat upstairs The cons: Its incredibly cold in the restaurant, not sure if it was because we were directly under the vent but very cold Server: Sarah! She was amazing and let us know that although she was new, she had tried everything on the menu so she had great recommendations Food and drinks: The sushi was amazing and the drinks were great as well! (I had the crunchy pawn sushi, sugar and spice drink, salmon sashimi, hanger steak skewers, and donuts for dessert). The steak portion was small but it tasted great. Service: When booking the reservation, I had mentioned I was celebrating a special someones birthday and they went above and beyond! Not only did they give us Champagne, they gave us some cake and a birthday card that was signed by some of the staff. It was the sweetest thing ever! We had such a great time and I’ll definitely be back!
