O-Ku is preparing to enter the Chattanooga dining scene with a new restaurant at 1400 Broad St., inside the AC Hotel by Marriott. The restaurant’s official website lists the Chattanooga location as “coming soon”, although an opening date has not yet been announced.

The upcoming restaurant will introduce O-Ku’s contemporary approach to Japanese cuisine to downtown Chattanooga. According to the company’s website, the concept brings together traditional Japanese culinary influences and modern dining, with an emphasis on fresh ingredients, balanced flavors and carefully prepared dishes.

O-Ku’s existing restaurants feature menus centered on sushi and Japanese-inspired specialties. Guests can find selections such as nigiri, sashimi and specialty sushi rolls, alongside other chef-driven dishes. The brand also places an emphasis on presentation and an atmosphere suited to both everyday dining and special occasions, according to its website.

The Chattanooga restaurant is described as a combination of traditional Japanese influences and contemporary design. Its location within the AC Hotel by Marriott will place the concept in a downtown hospitality setting, with a dining space intended for guests looking to meet, celebrate and enjoy a meal.

O-Ku is inviting interested customers to sign up through its website for updates about the Chattanooga opening, including announcements about pre-opening events and early reservation opportunities. Further details about the restaurant are expected as the opening approaches.
