    We recently celebrated our engagement at Ok-u, and the experience was absolutely phenomenal! From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make our special night even more memorable. They surprised us with beautifully designed menus that had “Congratulations” in the backdrop, adding such a thoughtful touch to our celebration. Not only that, but they also gifted us a picture frame, which was perfect since we need to print our engagement photos! As if that wasn’t enough, we were treated to a complimentary dish, showcasing their generosity and attention to detail. Our waitress, Madison, was outstanding—her warmth, attentiveness, and exceptional service made our night even more enjoyable. The atmosphere was perfect, the food was delicious, and every little gesture from the staff made us feel truly special. Thank you, Ok-u, for making our engagement celebration unforgettable! We highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for amazing service, thoughtful hospitality, and a beautiful dining experience.

    Terrific experience! Felt welcomed and valued. The menu offered perfect options: not so many as to be overwhelming, yet enough to be interesting and to offer something for everyone. Many healthy options, but plenty of unhealthy ones, too! :-) The Shepherds Pie, the filet, and the butternut squash risotto were particular stand outs! Service - from the greeter to our server (Ian) to the bus person..... all were superb. They knew their jobs, their restaurant, and they knew how to make you glad you came here for dinner! One of our group had a birthday and they were perfect! No cheesy, silly waiter stunts, but a lovely little piece of cake, spoons for all, and a very nice card with a gift card. I've been to Napa many times before - usually for business lunches, but haven't been in several years; none of my 3 guests had been before. I was so glad that the food and ambience what better than ever, and that my guests were all impressed.
