I've been at Okku several times and I was always satisfied. tried almost the complete menu and definitely delivers. the best in town for a 50% original/50% revisited Japanese taste. Quality comes at price, but you get what you pay. Cozy atmosphere, great lighting.

Okku has a great set up with delicious food. The atmosphere is great; dinner before midnight and party mode after. The music was enjoyable.

We had a cocktail and shared a tartar here. Prices were very steep for what you get, and the whole place just seems to be the old good-time Dubai...very flashy but not substantive. If you have a hot date, it will certainly impress, but not if she is a foodie...

If you like Japanese food in an upscale environment then try Okku which is located at the H hotel on Sheikh Zayed rd but make sure you make a reservation.

A good restaurant does a few things very well and a short menu is usually a very good indicator of the quality of food you are likely to eat. Okku’s menu is so long and complicated and this is reflected in the food which is at best average. The prices are far from average though so for the mediocre food... More

8 of us got a table here on sunday night upstairs. The atmosphere as soon as we got in was amazing, with great music, decor and bar. The food was really good, especially the salads and the seaweed. They do a really amazing rasberry mojito.

Food is still very good. The service has gone downhill. They have changed the waiters and the new ones are unprofessional, rude and have an acceptable attitude. They give you a limited time to have your dinner, I think it is of around 1 hour and you will be given your bill and forced to leave after that. Probably wont... More

Difficult to say what the food is like as we didn't even stay to be seated. Had a dinner reservation at the restaurant, but due to an accident on the freeway were unfortunately delayed in a traffic jam. Called the restaurant and was told that it would be fine. On finally arriving about 20 mins late, I was told our... More

Excellent restaurant of fusion food in Dubai based in HOTEL MONARCH ,! This concept is really working well in term of creativity and it's clearly much better than NOBU and probably a bit over ZUMA in the same city of Dubai! Nevertheless prices are getting really high , especially wine list which is reaching amazing orices compared to the poor... More
