O.K Restaurant — Restaurant in Kawartha Lakes

First time and will be the last time. I would give this place 0 star if I could.

I have always tempted to try out OK Sushi but due to all of the bad reviews, I'd always ended up at QQ Sushi. However, a friend of mine has insisted to try out this restaurant so we came for lunch today.

The one and only waitress does not seem to be in the mood and would sometimes disappear for quite awhile. We would be waiting for at least 10 minutes every time before our orders were taken. Once the food has arrived, this same waitress - without a smile - would aggressively place it and at one point, spilled the sauce on the table. The food was sub-par, or as the name of the restaurant suggested, just "ok" with nothing special. The menu was boring with very limited choices if compared to QQ Sushi. A few of the "special" sushi rolls were very not special. The fillings were all the same, with crabmeat, prawn tempura, cucumber, and avocado. Other menu options including soups, handrolls, some "grilled" meat, noodles/rice, and a lot of deep fried food including deep-fried sushi. Seaweed salad is usually my favourite, however, after a few orders, the waitress told us they have run out(!?).

We were 3 people and ordered three rounds of food. Some of the dishes we ordered from the first/second round has not been brought out so we reordered for the third round. What disgust us the most, is when we ordered the sushi with cheese and pineapple, it came with a taste of cockroaches. Now I know this may sound extremely bizarre, but coming from a third world country and growing up surrounded by this insect, I am very familiar with their scent. It is very strong and distinct. A bite of the piece of sushi instantly reminded me of the disgusting taste and smell of these monsters. It made me sick to my stomach and although still relatively hungry, I had no appetite for any more of their food.

When my friends have finished and wanted desserts, we waited for 15-20 minutes before the waitress, who had disappeared, to return and take our orders. However, at this time, we were ready to leave and no longer wish to stay for desserts. The waitress then asked if we would like to take the leftover food home, and I have responded politely that due to the incident, I do not wish to have any more of their food. The waitress then instantly raised her voice and accused us of ordering too much and unable to finished. This was certainly not the case as we were not full nor did we even get our desserts. However, the waitress, without an apology or even an apologetic attitude, continued to blame us and demand for us to pay for the leftover food. When I repeated myself about the disgusting taste of the sushi, this waitress then heckled us as to why we did not make any comment on the same dish which she presumed that we ordered previously. I then explained to her that the dish ordered never arrived, hence the reason we reordered, not because it was so good that we wanted a second round. She then went to check the fridge and asked the sushi chef (in Chinese) to make sure we were not lying, and after the sushi chef had confirmed, she then pointed to the sushi pieces in the container box and asked which one it was, and after I pointed out, she casually put her fingers in the takeaway box that we were forced to takeout, and took out the sushi pieces. I was so sick and disgusted with both the food and the service at this point, that I just ended up paying the $6 extras for the food which I will not eat, and will...

Review: I have gone in with a large group (18 people the one time) multiple times and it has always been enjoyable. It is a go to spot for me and my friends for lunch, supper and take out. General Tso's chicken, Cheese Wontons, Boston roll, Lindsay roll and the deep fried milk are to DIE for!! I highly recommend this spot. It is all you can eat, which means you order on a sheet, instead of a buffet, but it is all one price. Keep in mind on major holidays such as Christmas Eve, mothers day and New Years when it is extremely busy with takeout they sometimes refuse to do the all you can eat, but just call ahead. Please give this restaurant a chance, also keep in mind the...

We haven't been to the OK in years. Our neighbour told us that she loves it there, so we decided to give it another try. We went to eat in for supper. We were seated shortly after getting in the front door. They don't use traditional menus and gave us one take out menu for Chinese food and one for Japanese food even though we specifically said we only wanted Chinese. It was frustrating for the two of us to choose from one menu, so I got up and got another menu pamphlet from the front counter. We ordered a combination plate each and I ordered a wonton soup w/ chicken. The food came out in reasonable time. My issue was the spoon they gave me to eat the soup; it was a ladle like spoon (see photo). Every time I tried to eat with it, the broth dripped out of it. Sure, the ladle spoon was stylish, but I'll take functionality over style any time. Our food was really good and we had absolutely nothing negative to say about it. I'd eat their food anytime. Our waitress was pretty good and we had nothing bad to say about her either. The dining area is fairly drab but I have a feeling that they took their wall art down...
