The negima and buta were delicious! The chasu buns had too much sauce that overwhelmed the whole dish and the Omaha Crunch Roll was fine.I was surprised at how many items were unavailable since it required a reservation to get in. The service is unenthusiastic but not bad. Overall could be better but nothing was glaringly bad.

My wife and I checked out Koji last week for a special occasion, and we had a fantastic time! This cozy izakaya-style restaurant serves up delicious sushi, yakitori, and Japanese small plates that really hit the spot.We loved the seaweed salad and the chasu buns with pork belly. The mariwase yakitori was a real treat, especially the juicy chicken meatballs and the flavorful pork belly. The Hamapon cold plate with yellowtail, orange, and serrano was super refreshing, and the Grogus hot plate with crispy brussel sprouts and blueberry nuoc mam sauce was a unique and tasty combo.Of course, we had to try some sushi too! The uni nigiri was delicious, and the Kobayashi Maru maki roll with smoked salmon, spicy crab, and broccolini was our favorite, especially when dipped in the amazing crab butter ponzu.The friendly staff and cozy vibe at Koji made our evening extra special. If you're in the mood for some seriously good izakaya food, definitely give Koji a try!Vegetarian options: There are very few vegetarian or vegan options.

Picture this…it’s a Sunday afternoon, the sun is out, and you want to enjoy an experience with your family. Koji is it! From walking in the door to engaging with the staff and then the food…it’s a 10/10. Kaylynn is a top tier server - attentive, kind, polite, thorough. The kitchen staff knows what they’re doing and it was a pleasure to see them work their magic delicately with so many ingredients. We’ve been in several times and simply enjoy each visit more and more. Well done.

Great food and service, I would highly recommend the Rodeo, khaleesi, and hamachos. If you want to save some money go on Sunday for the all day happy hour menu.

I want to start by praising the chefs, The octopus sauce is Magnificent ? The sushi was amazing and the pork belly buns are to die for!!! [we def used the octopus sauce for everything, we loved it that much!] We sat on the bar and were able to see chefs in action and they are very clean and keep the kitchen very neat!. I loved that the menu was easy and enough options. The servers were very nice and kind, quick and efficient. The ambience was great, low lights, the colors of the restaurant were very well chosen. It was def a great experience, we were very pleased ?

Very pleased with the food but not so much with the service. Asked 4 times for a fork and finally got it. Felt like everyone around us got there after us and were done and paid by the time we got our food. Felt like we were a little forgotten by our waitress. We got there at 6:30 and finished dinner at 8:30.

Very good sushi, very similar to their higher end restaurant in Benson Yashimotos , but much better prices for more regular visits. I’d say the main difference between this restaurant and yashimotos is the resturant is smaller , kitchen here is busier and louder, and the wait staff is less professional. Overall experience was very good. Will go back.
Amazing food! Koji does not disappoint.The only con was during a recent visit. All of us ordered at once and two of us were waiting for about 25 minutes with no food after our friends had gotten theirs.

This was ok but I find it odd that they did not have iced tea at all and then I asked for Diet Coke, but they were out of it, and they still charge me for it ps we came on the 18 of February and had order a California roll and they forgot to put it on the ticket for ordering ..

Creative fusion dining. I wish the menu had a little more variety but everything we tried was great. The only downside is the price.It also isn't very kid friendly.Kid-friendliness: No kids menu. The menu is adventurous by design but kids often want simple and familiar.
