To add to our frustration, we had both worked all day and skipped lunch, so we were really looking forward to dining at OKTO. There was no indication on Google or your social media about the closure, and OpenTable was still accepting reservations. This isn’t the first time we’ve had issues at your restaurant. Last November, we went in before another show and ended up waiting at our table for 30 minutes before realizing our server had never come over. What should have been a lovely date night turned into us hastily eating our food to make it to the show, arriving just as it started. We were hoping for a much better experience this time, but instead, it completely ruined our evening.

While the service was very nice, the food and ambience didn't quite match up to the price. I'd be open to giving it one more shot and trying something else on the menu.

Pricey for what you receive, but E&O usually makes up for it in the overall experience.
