Fabulous experience! It’s all dim sum, and it’s all delicious. I especially loved the dessert egg roll they had on rotation- it was seriously one of the best desserts I’ve ever had. Coconut almond filling, and the vanilla almond ice cream was so good with the compote and amaretto cherries. 10/10
The dim sum was great too, I liked the kanom gui chai and the kimchi salad best. Great for a big group of people, you can order and get to try a bunch of different food. Very cozy seating and atmosphere

Visited Otsu! a couple weekends ago to celebrate my niece’s birthday and WOW! We did the Tobehodai on a Sunday evening, and everything we tried (which was dang near everything) was delicious. Standouts were the soup dumplings, pork belly and chicken skewers, shrimp shumai, dumpling soup, mushroom coconut soup and the kimchi salad (would recommend ordering this right away so you can eat it along side everything else). Server was super nice and attentive, food came out promptly (even when it got a little busier). Would 10/10 recommend going for the all you can eat with a group so you can try a whole bunch of items. Well worth it!!

We love Otsu! We had a reservation on a Sunday evening for the Tabehodai (all you can eat) experience. Every dish we tried was unique and delicious, and our cocktails were complex and so yummy. The Tabehodai menu was a great way to try lots of different dishes and we each have favorites we will definitely get next time.

We did the all you can eat dinner and WOW. great value for the price and everything was delicious. Wait staff was sweet and attentive and cast no judgement on the large amount of food we put away.

Highly recommend the coconut mushroom soup and the duck bao. The meat on sticks was a winner too.

Also got a pickle cocktail that was tasty and unique.

First time here, and unfortunately we won’t be able to get back sooner, thanks responsibilities! Hehe. Seriously though, the food was stellar. In saying that, I truly believe quality is a focus of theirs, and they’ve hit that marker. We tried 5 different dumplings and would reorder any and all of them. I had 4 cocktails and my new friend Luke didn’t disappoint on any of them! What was more impressive than the food was the atmosphere and the people behind the bar. They made our night from “a good date night” into an incredibly memorable night out. Thank you, seriously!!

I had an amazing experience here! I have a lot of food allergies which makes eating out difficult sometimes. They were so accommodating and my waitress was very knowledgeable of anything that could be a problem for me. It meant so much to me seeing a restaurant care so much about my allergies. Most restaurant would just tell me not to eat their food and not try to help modify items for me. Also, everything I had tasted fantastic. Would highly recommend!

We had a group of 4 go on Sunday when Otsu was doing the Tabehodai (all you can eat) on Sunday. It was such a blast to try different food on the menu. Everything we had was delicious!

The top picks from our group were the Braised Greens Rangoons, Saku Sai Mu, Zavel’s Okra Gumbo, and all of the skewers with emphasis on the Moo Ping (pork belly) and Beef! Will definitely be back!

We went for the Tabehodi menu- all you can eat dumplings for $30 per person. I think we tried almost everything and it was soooo yummy! Some others said this place was hit or miss- but it was definitely a hit last night. I think this is my new favorite spot. The only constructive criticism I can give is that I wish my lychee highball could have used more lychee and the same for the lychee black tea ice cream- it was more tea and couldn’t taste much lychee which is why I got it. Usually lychee black tea is a little overpowered by the lychee and its sweetness but this was opposite. At the end our server ghosted us a little so we had to wait a little bit for the check, but other than that little bump he was great! That’s just me being a little picky because the experience was 10/10.

If you’re one of those people like myself looking for recommendations on what to order- hands down the xao long bao and the saku sai mu were my top 2 faves! Also the pork belly and wagyu yakitori!!

Funky cool new place perfect for Knoxville! Everything was delicious. We sat inside but think it will be fun to sit in their trendy outdoor area next time. All of the dumplings were phenomenal. Love the small plate approach. Kinda pricey for the portion size (my only complaint). Service was exceptional. Drinks were original and super fun! Highly recommend reservations. We can’t wait to come back!

Overall it was, let’s say…an experience. Knew that based on other reviews that had to have an open mind to the portion sizes. Just didn’t realize that I would spend so much money and leave still so hungry. Service was good, some of our food got “hung” up and we watched other tables order the same items as us and get them before us. The server did apologize each time. We lucked out and went on a soup dumpling night and it was really good, could’ve used more broth, but good overall. We ordered several things to try and it was hit or miss. To be honest, the lamb dumplings probably packed the most flavor and were our favorite item from the menu, along with the gyoza. Will we go back in the future??? I don’t know, it’s just hard to spend almost $100 and leave there and go else to grab something else.
