We enjoyed our little celebration of a family event just for two of us. OKU appeared to be exactly the right place for it with attentive people working there who created a welcoming atmosphere. Manager Luna was a nice conversationalist and gracious person. Thank you for a memorable evening!

I had concerns due to reading a few reviews stating the food was overstated and some waiters could be rude, but that wasn’t our experience. The ambience, as most reviews share, was magical. I expected that, but wow, the food was incredible! The steak was literally the best I’ve ever had. They provided gluten free rolls that were also the best I’ve ever had. And the service was impeccable. One of my best dining experiences to date and thankfully so since it was our 20th wedding anniversary. 10/10!
