“There's no better place to take a group of friends from out of town than Noko if you're trying to impress. This place never disappoints on all levels. We certainly gave the menu a go this time from crab fried rice, to bok choy, to the 40oz tomahawk steak...what an amazing experience. We will always be back, especially with the amazing hospitality!Thanks, Noko!“
“My wife and I were extremely blown away by the unique opportunity we had with chef Ryan. Never could we have imagined the tasteful 12 course meal made for us. Unfortunately my words fail to paint a proper picture of the quality and excellence of Ryan's skill and the journey to another world this was..thank you!“
“I've been to numerous sushi places in Murfreesboro and a few in Nashville. This is by far the best sushi I've had in the area. It may be the best I've ever had. You can just tell the ingredients are so fresh and superior to what I've had elsewhere. Amazing!“
“My husband and I had a pre honeymoon get away to Nashville. We love sushi and were highly reccomended this restaurant… It was an amazing experience. Best sushi we’ve ever had and atmosphere/server was incredible!! We will be back ♥️“
“A really fun concept with the conveyor belt. Limited options with the carb choices, it's either ramen, rice noodle, or rice cake only, and the only vegetables that I saw that were green were lettuce, cabbage, broccoli and bok choy. This place gets BUSY. I was dining for one only, so I was seated immediately at the bar. Two of the sakes that I requested were sold out. They also have sushi, fruit, some side dishes like kimchi and seaweed, and dessert. I sure left feeling full.“
“One of my go to places for dinner. Great food and a very nice staff. The atmosphere is nice, and it's a perfect option for quick takeout. I'm not sure why some people mention the portion size. Perhaps it depends on the dish, but I always get Pad Thai and easily get two meals out of it.“
“This place deserves its perfect 5 star rating! The panang curry at a level 3 was one of the best I’ve had, and the presentation is so good! The Thai tea was nice and strong, and the crab rangoons are nice and heartyVegetarian options: Lots of tofu options for nearly every dish“
“I was walking and saw this place in a strip mall. It looked good, not fancy. The lady at the counter had a huge smile and was very welcoming. The ramen looked good so I got the Tonkatsu ramen with the Charsu pork. It was amazing. The broth was rich and silky, just the way it's supposed to be. The egg was perfectly cooked too. The mushrooms were good as were the bamboo shoots. The noodles were just right. The portion is big, but not too big. The prices are also decent. This little gem is well worth it. Seek it out.“
“O-Ku is my absolute favorite restaurant EVER! I take all my friends and family and it’s the best spot for a romantic date! The food is always so delicious and beautifully presented. The whole atmosphere is wonderful and the staff is the best service I’ve ever had. Everyone is so nice, helpful, and genuinely friendly. My favorite servers all work here and I’m not the only regular who would say the same. I love you O-Ku Nashville! Shout out to some great servers I’ve had and highly recommend: Leah (the cool environmental enthusiast), Chance (the jokester with the biggest smile), and Ally (the crafty gal with the coolest handmade earrings and the sweetest heart). Food recommendations: PLEASE try the omokase. It is a 6 course tasting meal that is different every time you come in. I’ve had the best dishes from this meal and the nigiri are always so delicious. But honestly, I recommend anything and EVERYTHING. To start- king pao Cauliflower. Hot dish- get the Tokyo chicken bowl. Sashimi- the usuzukari or hamachi carpachio. From the robata grill- kamo negi (duck breast). A sushi roll- the playboy. Also the have O-toro, Uni, and so many specialty fishes like kin medai and shima aji!!!!“

“Not only was the food excellent, but so was the service. The staff was so understanding when I asked then to if the music could be turned down a little when the noise was over stimulating my son. I can’t say enough good things about this place.“
“This is the best sushi in Nashville. You will not get the same expensive ‘flare’ you find at other restaurants in town, but the flavors and variety are excellent. The atmosphere is very and enjoyable, and the staff are very attentive. I wish they would open a location in East Nashville so I don’t have to drive as far to enjoy their food, but it is worth the trip across town!“
“Fantastic food! We went twice during our trip.The hibachi chefs were highly entertaining. We have young kids, and worked hard to entertain them, but not scare them with too much “fire”Highly recommend their filet mignon and their salmon on their entrees. (Their “yum yum” sauce with the red “hot” paste was delicious.”We also got some sushi rolls, which were also really good.Next visit to Nashville- would stop by again“
“Just tried them for the first time and ordered the Beef Ramen Bowl, it was really good and they listened to my changes I made to the order. The beef was tasty just melts in your mouth, the dumplings were good too. I recommend for some good ramen.“
“Great menu with rolls we have never seen or had. Prices were pretty good for sushi and the Ramen bowl sushi combo seems like a great deal for $20. A bit disappointed by the draft Sapporo. We normally get a can and was looking forward to draft but is was not very carbonated and was not very cold. I'd rather have received the can. Rolls were good size, well made and fresh tasting. I would recommend the ahi seared tuna salad as you get good amount of tuna that way and was delicious with ginger dressing. Conveniently located near our hotel and just down the road is a great ice cream parlor for dessert! Note: we were going to have the fried brownie dessert but they were out of ice cream (? Pssst..younext door to a grocery store). Overall was great place to check out if you like sushi. Next time I'll try the Ramen as they did look great and you can choose type of broth, protein which is cool.“
“Best Korean Food in the Southeast! The Bulgogi was absolutely delicious! Fresh and flavorful ingredients prepared to perfection in generous portions. The KFC is out of this world and will change your life. The Atmosphere and Team members also 5 Star and give great recommendations! Most importantly, this is definitely a child friendly dining option!!“
“Wow! What a great little sushi joint! For starters we had the pork gyoza and they were excellent. Then we all had salads and miso souls. The ginger dressing on the salad was some of the best dressing I think I have ever had. The soup was so good. My wife had the salad roll and she really enjoyed it. My son had the Big Bill roll and it was awesome. I had the Rainbow roll and it was very good. We all shared a bowl of shrimp fried rice and it was soooo good, some of the best fried rice we have had. Definitely a place we will go back to next time in town and we highly recommend it if you like sushi!“
“Took my brother here for his birthday. They emphasized the quality of the fish, and it was even mentioned online. Living part of the year in Hawaii I’m typically skeptical of those claims for landlocked cities.However. We sampled 6 different rolls, and a selection of the ngiri and the poke bowl. Ever dish, the fish was firm, with a good bite and mouth feel. Everything was as fresh as they claimed.We were super impressed with the quality. Vibes a little confusing as far interior, but not distracting enough to count against them.Cocktail game is good. A few custom cocktails and a list of classics, everything we had was solid. No gimmicks or over sugared drinks. Manhattan, old fashioned, Tokyo flow were all great and the mojito is actually one of the better I’ve had in Nashville.Hope this place sticks around. *nods head affirmatively.“
“So being from STL where the Chinese food is the bomb and coming to nashville and the Japanese food is pretty good was hard but the is the ONLY place I will get my Asian experience from.i always order ahead and my order is ALWAYS correct and very tasty. You can watch your sushi being made. The establishment is clean and the workers are so nice. Definitely give them a try if you aren't happy with the current choices here.Vegetarian options: You can get anything on the menu without meat. Sushi has veggie options as well.Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp or a spot on the sidewalk you can enter.“
