During our first night in Medellin we had dinner at Restaurant Okus. We were casually looking for something in the vicinity of our hotel and stumbled upon this place. We reserved a table and went 30 minutes later. While the reservation didn't register correctly a table was available and we're welcomed by the friendly staff. This was the first time we went to such a restaurant with out two daughters of 9 and 11 years old. Our table was taken care of by Emanuel and his colleagues. He briefly explained the background of the restaurant and explained some of the great dishes we were going to enjoy. We go to nice restaurants from time to time, but this was one of the best culinary experiences so far. The food was beautifully presented and delicious. All drinks, even those for the kids, were made and presented to be special. We definitely recommend going to Restaurant Okus. Hopefully you too are guided through this culinary treat by Emanuel or any of his colleagues.

Okus is an opulent and plush restaurant of Medellin, last month I had the privilege of tasting some Japanese dishes of their menu. They offer an extended menu with different types of proteins, mainly sea food also they offer a great variety of vegetables and roots. In short, the place had became trendy not only because of the great taste but also because the attentive service of the staff. It’s a wonderful place if you need a private space, but isn’t a cozy place. Furthermore, is whooping than other Japanese food restaurants I had visited. In conclusion, it was a hit and miss because of the great experience in every aspect of the restaurant, definitely some of their earthy dishes are one of their best kept secrets. If you are a true fan of seafood and strong flavors, this is your place.
