Our server was incredibly knowledgeable, offering excellent recommendations that catered to our preferences. They handled the flow of the meal flawlessly, ensuring drinks were refreshed and plates cleared promptly. This dedication to customer care elevates the entire visit, making it a seamless and enjoyable occasion. The food at Koi Sushi is, quite simply, superb. The quality of the fish is undeniably fresh, featuring vibran
As a server/bartender myself I know the service industry gets intense, that being said the service here was hands down the worst service I’ve ever had. I hate to even write a bad review but even after eating I’m still upset. The food was amazing, but we waited 55 minutes for our food. During a timed service not to mention. My table needed sauce dishes. They never checked on our table during that 50 minutes wait besides to drop off miso soup and drinks. When we tried to ask for help they turned and walked off immediately. And our iPad died halfway through, so we had to go by pen and paper. Nothing wrong with pen and paper… if it didn’t take another 20 minutes to just get to our table. The food was good, service was just unacceptable in my opinion.
The food was incredible!! The appetizers were sooo good — my favorites were the Japanese chicken nuggets, potstickers, and calamari. The miso soup was delicious, and obviously the sushi was the star of the show. My personal favorite was the Papacito roll as well. The drinks were so unique and delicious, by the way!
first time coming, and it was pretty good. it wasn't *particularly* amazing, just good, very Standard tasting. my only large complaint is that I didn't really love the selection of specialty/deluxe rolls, they were definitely the most underwhelming part of everything. the selection for non-sushi items was huge tho, lots of apps and even ramen available for the AYCE. (the Koi pizza appetizer however was also not very good at all: rice wasn't very crispy and the toppings did not work well, do not recommend lol). overall, this place is definitely good if you're coming with a group where not everyone is a huge sushi eater (which is honestly a huge factor when it comes to choosing a restaurant to eat at), and if I come back, I'd definitely focus more on nigiri over rolls.
Their price for AYCE went up and the quality has gone down, but it still tastes decent especially if you’re craving sushi. Their koi pizza (not pictured) was good during the first order, hence why we ordered it a second time but it came super soggy and didn’t taste as good. Their seating time limit is either 1 and a half or 2 hours I believe but we were barely 40 mins in still eating and it felt so unwelcoming, it felt like the waitress (that wasn’t even serving us in the beginning) wanted us to leave. Her kids were seated a couple tables away from us the entire time while she was working and she kept coming to check on them and move stuff around. We ordered dessert and didn’t even finish yet when she came up to us with the bill. Again, she wasn’t the original waiter that was serving us. T
