    Once again had the most fabulous experience at Oku. We have celebrated all our big events here, engagement, anniversaries and now my husbands 30th birthday where they went above and beyond making our experience out of this world. I’m so thankful for all the memories we’ve shared here, which is why we come back from Ohio every single year to enjoy their amazing hospitality and food. Thank you to Trey and all of the amazing team!

    Our food was absolutely incredible. For the first course we had the shrimp, mussels, and meatballs. All were cooked and seasoned to perfection. For my entree I got the beef short ribs and my friends both got the ravioli. The short ribs were so tender and paired perfectly with the mashed potatoes and miso sauce. Both of my friends finished their ravioli and had rave reviews. We finished off with the Sweet Home Carolina dessert, which was very rich and tasted a lot like a snickers bar. Our server, Basil, was very attentive and knowledgeable. We will definitely be coming back!

    This was my first time dining at Sixty Vines with my Bookclub member’s. The service by Ryan and Lucy is the best I’ve ever had. Seriously! They were very attentive and thought of everything we needed to make our dining experience one to remember. The food was absolutely amazing; from the Brussel Sprouts and mussels to the double Cabernet burger and creste di gallo pasta. Yummy! I would recommend Sixty Vines for great food and top notch service. Thank you

    I wish it was informed by the restaurant staff ahead that preferred quite time schedules are post 9:00pm. We came in at 7:00 pm on Wednesday and the all the tables were full with clients which is great for the business but it was pretty noisy. It was so noisy that Chinese Buffet noise level was much elegantly elevated compared to what I experienced at Fahrenheit that night. People come here to have a romantic date/anniversary and high level meetings. Unfortunately I couldn’t feel such elegancy vibe during our visit due to the high noise level by the other tables around. Maybe having a classical music in background can help to let people know to calm it down bit
