All of the recommended sushi on their happy house menu was great. Get in Your Belly was our favorite. Super helpful server. Loved it

Food was delicious and very cool ambiance. Service was average nothing to go crazy over but also wasn't bad. She offered us dessert never came back with the dessert menu and then just dropped the check off basically telling us we had to go so that was kind of weird. But the sushi was delicious!

We went for our anniversary dinner and got special menses with “happy anniversary” written on them, so cute !! Our server was amazing, he gifted us an appetizer on the house for our anniversary. The food was great and I believe worth every penny.

Had the absolute BEST time for my birthday! Meiling, Trey & Reggie were rockstars! Their teamwork lead by their incredible GM Lauren really made this experience unforgettable! Will definitely be back when I visit NC again and highly recommend this place!

My experience was amazing! Thank you to all the sushi chefs every single bite was delicious and the manager, Lauren was so attentive. O-ku is definitely my absolute favorite place to dine !

O-Ku is definitely one of my favorite Charlotte restaurants, especially for high-quality sushi. We took a risk of showing up on a Saturday night w/ no reservation, but luckily there were seats open at the sushi counter so it was perfect. Tonight we had Carson as our waiter and he was absolutely amazing. He was so gracious and never let us feel forgotten. Will definitely be coming back to sit at the sushi counter, & hopefully have Carson as our server again! Thank you to the whole crew for a wonderful night out.

One of my favorites and never disappoints! Celebrated my 50th with friends and they made me feel like a queen the entire evening

First, the sign for O-Ku was easily obstructed, so we ended up walking around the Sola Salon building to find it...when you see the field of glowing mushrooms, walk straight ahaed and yoi'll eventually see the sign on the corner of the building. O-ku have a warm atmosphere, and the staff was super friendly and accommodating. The food was good, but it wasn't the best. For example, we had the fried sweet and spicy shrimp at O-ku and Midnight diner and to me, the midnight diner shrimp was better. The food and drinks were good and if i was going with a group of people who wanted sushi, I'd recommend O-ku because the food is solid and it has a good vibe. We didn’t have to wait for a table because we made a reservation, and because it was a special occasion for me, they gave me a special menu which was dope.
We had a fantastic experience at O-Ku Charlotte. The team has maintained the excellent quality we expect from other O-Ku locations while giving this one its own unique feel, including some great custom menu items. We will be back. Thank you to the entire team!

My husband and I were recommended to try this restaurant out and they did not disappoint at all. Our reservation was for 7:30, we were seated right away and our server came over and explained the entire menu to us and answered any questions that we had. The food 10/10, the ambiance 10/10. The overall experience was great from beginning to end. We will definitely be back. If you haven't tried this place, you should definitely put it on your list of places to dine.

My girlfriend and I have been to O-Ku previously and the service has always been stellar and the food is always amazing. Unfortunately, with this experience we waited almost over an hour for our food. The service was still great. We didn't order an abundance of food just 3 pieces of nigiri and 2 sushi rolls. And only after sitting there for a hot min did our server tell us that the kitchen was backed up. We understand that but would have liked to have known sooner.

Good place for a date night, as the atmosphere and service were amazing. Loved the Duck Buns, but otherwise found the sushi to just be average.
