Although we sat outside sidewalk which was expectedly noisy with buses on route, the food and drinks are beyond ordinary and truly delicious. Server was friendly and informed if specials. Make reservations for inside to fully enjoy. We were glad to get a seat last minute. The place is very popular and packed!

Great restaurant with quality food and service. Unfortunately our wait staff no less than four times had to return to our table to inform us that the drink, dish, or dessert we ordered was unavailable. Seemed odd they were short supplied of multiple menu items.

Sat in the back lanai, which had a cozy intimate atmosphere. Food is always good here at O'Kims. Truffle Mandoo is a fave; stone bibimbap hit the right spot, especially with the purple rice substitution. The Oxtail Mandoo Kook Soo was also unique and delicious.
