Sleek and swanky O-Ku regularly makes our list for its impeccably fresh fish and expansive menu—everything from traditional maki, nigiri, and sashimi to a host of creative rolls to dim-sum, terikayi, and seared Wagyu steak—not to mention the spot-on service. Just remember that this is a popular watering hole as well. Head in on the weekends if you’re into a pulsing club-like feel; otherwise try a quieter weeknight for a dinner date. Better yet: go for happy hour and fill up on half-priced rolls. 463 King St., (843) 737-0112, www.o-kusushi.com
