Oku at Regent Phu Quoc
The Regent Phu Quoc's resident "omakase atelier" is a luxurious dining experience set within five-star surrounds. Inside Oku's stylishly cavernouse interior, Nobu alum Andy Huynh serves up modern Japanese cuisine with a Vietnamese twist in a format that encourages direct interaction between chef and diner. Expect beautifully crafted sushi, sashimi, and other traditional Japanese dishes with fresh, locally-sourced ingredients. The restaurant also features an impressive sake and cocktail menu—though the latter is best enjoyed at the adjoining speakeasy bar.
