Whenever I see people entering the nearby chipotle, I immediately have the urge to divert them here.
Okome is a hidden gem in Lexington that offers 100% Gluten free Asian bowls and various milks and teas.
The staff here is small, but they work very hard to keep the business running. They are also very kind, happy, and generous people.
I am never disappointed when dining here. One of my favorite quick dinner/lunch spots in the city! #okomeforthewin!
William and his team traveled from Lexington to Louisville and arrived exactly when they said they would. Set up was extremely fast and efficient, especially considering they had to navigate through our cocktail hour full of guests to get from point A to point B. He was extremely polite, nice to talk to, and provided fantastic customer service.
Our guests would not stop raving about how incredible the food was, and we had multiple people physically writing down the name of the restaurant so that they could come visit because they were so impressed!! Everyone took leftovers home. There was soooo much food, very generous portions.
Thank you so much for everything, we are so grateful and so happy with how everything turned out!
However, despite these appealing aspects, my visit was disappointing. The overall cleanliness of the establishment was lacking. Some of the containers holding the toppings were not behind glass, which raised concerns about hygiene as they were exposed to potential contamination. Additionally, it appeared that the toppings had been sitting out for a considerable amount of time, contributing to a less-than-fresh appearance.
Compounding these issues was the unavailability of many toppings and sides. When I requested noodles for my base, I was informed they were out but had some cooking. Unfortunately, the preparation method was quite off-putting. The staff member took the noodles directly out of a bowl full of water that the noodles had been cooked in and placed them in my bowl without any further preparation, which felt unhygienic.
While the concept and affordability of Okome Asian Grill & Boba Tea are commendable, the execution falls short in crucial areas such as cleanliness and food preparation. These shortcomings have unfortunately overshadowed the potential positives of the dining experience, leading me to decide not to return.
