What an excellent addition to the St Pete dining scene. We dined at the chef's counter and were amazed at the chef's artistry and inventive flavors. 10 delicious seasonal courses. We have had numerous tasting menus but we were impressed with the chef's personal explanation of each dish. The A5 wagyu supplement was exceptional, but so was the duck, venison and mackerel! If you are looking for a special evening then Mei should be on the top of your list!

Great food. Don’t miss the gyozas if they’re on the menu, which changes all the time. And is very limited. Tiny place, dark, moody in a cottage off the beaten path. One excellent server running the whole joint - she was knowledgeable, energetic and fun.

Interesting and extensive menu of Peruvian dishes, some with Japanese inspiration. Quantity was good and food was tasty. We were there at 4:30 for dinner, so we were the only diners, service was friendly and attentive with necessary explanations of the menu, and food arrived promptly. Most entrees mid $20 or higher.

    Dinner at RO in Hyde Park last night was nothing short of incredible! 🍣✨ Every single dish was packed with flavor and absolutely delicious! We enjoyed the Popcorn Shrimp, Spicy Tuna, Spicy Shrimp, Skirt Steak, Carbonara Noodles, Ramen Noodles, Salmon Crudo, and General Tso’s Cauliflower — and WOW, everything was phenomenal! The flavors, presentation, and quality of the food were outstanding. We loved getting to try so many different dishes, and not a single one disappointed! RO definitely exceeded our expectations! Already looking forward to our next visit and trying even more of the menu. Highly recommend! 🍣👏
