    Our family with 2 college aged kids had a fabulous and fun experience dining at O-Ku as part of our holiday celebrations together. We had the Osusume chef tasting menu and loved every bit of it. Our outstanding server Elena described it as a tour of the menu. It included sushi and sashimi courses as well as delicious braised beef and dessert. We also enjoyed tasting different sake's and learning more about the flavor profiles. A great experience overall!

    Overall a great experience. The server was amazing. The bread is to die for. The oysters were delicious. The peel /eat shrimp appetizer was great. The octopus appetizer was great. We also had the she crab soup, the mushroom side, the hushpuppy side. The entrees were the scallops dish and the flounder dish. Overall great. The wait time between dishes seemed very long. Not a place to go if you are on a tight schedule for event after dinner. Suggestion may be to order everything early on and let them glow it. Definitely will be back for oysters and appetizers.

    Stayed at the Epicurean Atlanta for our anniversary. Ate at Reverence for both breakfast and dinner. The staff were amazing. Their service was exceptional and attendance without being hovering. The Sommelier made a wonderful recommendation on a bottle of Châteauneuf-du-Pape that was perfect with our dinner. The charcuterie was an excellent starter with a nice balance of classic and more adventurous (esp. cheese) selections. The small plates (peri peri chicken skewers, pulpo asado & lamb meatballs) were all perfectly prepared and delivered at the right temperature for the dish. Overall the restaurant and hotel staff made this a perfect staycation right before Christmas. We look forward to many future visits.

    We loved this restaurant! We had the calamari which was so tender and just a tad spicy. So good! The truffle Mac and cheese, bruschetta, and scallops were all delicious. It was our birthdays and they brought out cotton candy with a candle! We will be back!
