- HHulonNew York City •3 reviews5.0Dined on Oct 17, 2026We participated in the first year anniversary dinner and were thoroughly pleased! Each dish was beautifully crafted and delicious. It began with a gift to the table of citrus larger that was very good. Little bites had the seafood flare of raw oysters that had a phenomenal mignonette making the pop in your mouth, Fried rice cakes with spicy salmon tartare on top and marinated tuna spoon. Wave one started with the best Caesar salad coated in a wasabi seasoned dressing. Baked fish and Bao buns with Peking duck. The final wave was even better. The most flavorful bowl of roasted mushrooms, baked Candied white sweet potato rings that were like eating soft sweet candy, halibut in a white sauce that was rich and savory and the most melt in your mouth tenderloin of Wagyu beef atop a fried rice cakes seasoned perfectly. It was served Kyoshoku style so everyone shared each course and all the flavors at the table. This was different than their usual wester style service and made for a great opportunity to enjoy a greater number if flavors. This was only our second experience at Okatshe but we will be back.More infoOkatshe$$$$• Japanese• Allentown•4.5
