Our Take
The Spot
Oru comes from Comma Hospitality, and much of its menu traces back to dishes that defined Neo's reputation — aged fish, layered nigiri, and warm composed plates — now offered à la carte instead of as a fixed sequence. Guests choose their own way through the menu, whether that's a single hand roll or a longer progression of courses.

The kitchen works from Japanese technique across sushi, composed plates, and seasonal desserts, including a taiyaki and a charcoal ice cream that have built a following of their own. A beverage program of wine, sake, beer, and Japanese spirits runs alongside the food, with ingredients moving between bar and kitchen.

The room is intimate and often mentioned as a date-night spot, with service that draws consistent praise.
