Three signature pairings, three distinct flavors.

Today is World Sake Day, and tonight we celebrate this timeless spirit at O-Ku with three sashimi pairings worth exploring. For just $36, take a look at what we're offering below:

🌸 Soul of the Sensei with Yellow Tail Carpaccio

🌸 Black Dragonfly with Tuna Crudo

🌸 True Vision with Usuzukuri

It's the perfect way to celebrate the craft, the creation, and the culture. Kanpai! by @okuraleigh

This is when the magic happens. ✨

The sound of sizzling as Chef sets your skewer on the robata, the clinking of glasses during a toast to another year, the laughs between old friends reuniting.

At O-Ku Raleigh, every moment of your dine is an experience to be remembered. by @okuraleigh

Try a little bit of everything. Petite plates, dumplings and shareable bites make it easy to build a table meant for tasting, sharing and trying something new!

Expect fresh fish from around the world.
O-Ku sources from some of the world’s finest markets, including Norway, Scotland, Hawaii and New Zealand, alongside local sustainable sources. 🍣👀

From tuna to sashimi and nigiri, O-Ku lets high-quality fish take center stage with colorful, beautifully prepared plates that are almost too pretty to eat.

One more because every plate is just so beautiful! 😍 taken in The Dillon Raleigh by @okuraleigh

One final detail sprinkled on our Mont Blanc Cake, and you're ready to enjoy.

With caramelia dark chocolate mousse, chestnut cream, yuzu raspberry coulis, and raspberry, this dessert is equally dreamy as it is delicious. by @okuraleigh

We'll take two of the Gyuniku, please.

Certified Angus Beef® hanger, togarashi, and crispy shallots make the perfect combination to share or enjoy solo.

Your Saturday night plans call for a trio full of flavor — take our West St Wings, Dumplings, and Octopus as the blueprint. 🔥

Savory and charred to perfection, you may be adding a few more plates to the table once you're finished.

Swipe for a few of our O-Ku Raleigh favorites. 🥢✨

Our Tuna Crudo is a light and refreshing starter with maguro, avocado mousse, wasabi soy, and crispy shallots.

Next up, our o-toro spoons melt in your mouth every bite with rich o-toro and uni combined with flavorful kizami, ponzu and kaluga caviar.

Our Octopus specialty dish takes a more adventurous approach, with gochujang glaze, kabocha squash puree, smoked paprika and yuzu olive oil.

Finally, there’s a reason our Hamachi Carpaccio is a fan favorite. With tender hamachi and flavorful mango puree, serrano, yuzu oil, and ponzu, it’s a dish you’ll keep coming back to. taken in Raleigh, North Carolina by @okuraleigh

A classic cocktail, with an O-Ku spin. 🔥

The Old Fashioned is a staple on our menu for a reason. Crafted with Elijah Craig, bitters and demerara, it's smokey and smooth for the perfect sip.

You can basically hear the crunch through the screen. 🎧💥

If you haven’t started your meal at O-Ku with our Crispy Rice, are you even doing dinner right? We take perfectly golden, crispy rice cakes and pile them high with chef’s choice fresh fish, a bold kick of spicy gochujang, and just the right touch of rich wasabi aioli.

It’s sweet, spicy, savory, and gone in about 30 seconds flat. 🥢✨ taken in O-Ku Raleigh by @okuraleigh
