The menu is a rich tapestry of flavors, showcasing standout dishes like the visually stunning Pineapple Rice—a tropical, savory treat that leaves a lasting impression not just in taste but presentation. Seafood lovers will delight in the Hibachi Seafood Platter and the plump, juicy Jumbo Shrimp with Walnut & Broccoli, while those seeking a fiery kick can savor the Drunken Noodle or the bold Spicy Tuna Roll.

OKKO’s salad selection offers refreshing options like the tangy Larb Gai Chicken Salad with zesty lime and chili, and the creamy yet crisp Avocado Salad, perfect for balancing the richness of other dishes. The menu doesn’t stop there; specialties such as Carne A la Plancha and Tom Yum Soup add savory depth and cultural breadth, ensuring each visit provides an exploration of tastes.

Many guests have remarked on the restaurant’s welcoming and friendly service. As Anshul Gupta beautifully put it, the staff’s warmth and the cozy vibe made a Christmas Day lunch feel truly special, with everything arriving fresh and perfectly heated from appetizers through to entrees. The lively hibachi grills add a theatrical flair to the meal – a burst of energy filled with laughter and interactive cooking that appeals to families and groups alike, as noted by Hunter Willimon, who highlights the fun, engaging atmosphere as a memorable part of the experience.

While the Pineapple Fried Rice has sparked some debate (notably for lacking pineapple in one reviewer’s experience), the overall flavor profile and presentation continue to wow visitors. Fiona Salvatori’s praise of the sushi and hot and sour soup captures the balance of excellence in both food quality and ambiance, making OKKO a standout destination on the island.

Whether you’re a local or a visitor seeking a culinary journey through East Asia’s rich gastronomy, OKKO Japanese Sushi & Hibachi Restaurant offers a dynamic menu that beautifully marries tradition with bold creativity. It’s a place where vibrant, fresh ingredients meet thoughtful preparation and a wonderfully convivial setting—making every meal not just dinner, but a delightful event to savor.
