“Delicious food and fast service, very neat“

“Good quality sushi and friendly service in downtown Lakewood. Quite a few different rolls and small dishes to choose from. They also had two types of boba tea, and the one we got was good. The service was friendly and they even gave us an extra dish that was made by mistake. But note this a counter order / takeout shop, not a sit-down restaurant w/ sushi bar. That was not clear to me when I went. If dining in, you order on tablets at the shop and they bring it out. Or you can order ahead and pick it up to go. Most of their business seems to be takeout. On the plus side, you don't have to tip a server. Pretty small inside, about 4 four-tops and 4 two-tops. Not dirty inside, but they should take some time cleaning the floor and windows more, as well as tidying up the inventory that's stacked up by the windows, to give it a nicer, more welcoming feel inside.“

“I got the ramen and it was delicious! Conveniently packaged to go with the broth separate from the additional items I added.“

“Fantastic food! Kids loved it too!“

“Excellent dining experience!!

Went out with my girlfriend and her parents for my girlfriends birthday

I have to eat gluten free and this restaurant was so accommodating, that I was actually able to experience hibachi at the hibachi tables. Typically when I go out to get hibachi they always make the food in the back and I miss out. But not these guys, they made my meal first to avoid cross contamination, and they gave me a double portion of fried rice in place of the noodles(they used gluten free soy sauce for the rice). I had steak and shrimp and it was phenomenal!

Definitely recommend for anyone who has a gluten sensitivity and wants to enjoy hibachi“

“The food was delicious, more than you can eat. The cook was very entertaining!!!“

“If you’re craving sushi or hibachi but dread the long wait times at a popular hibachi spot, this spot is a game changer. It’s essentially a “Benihana Express” – same quality food, same fresh flavors, but without the hour-long wait for table.

The hibachi/teriyaki dishes are cooked to perfection – tender steak, juicy chicken, and shrimp with just the right amount of char. The fried rice is buttery and flavorful, and the vegetables still have that perfect crisp bite. Sushi rolls are fresh, well-presented, and packed with flavor, rivaling any big-name chain. Someone mentioned, “bite size sushi” it’s true!

The best part? The service is quick and friendly, and take-out is a breeze. You can enjoy the same quality hibachi and sushi you’d expect from a large chain, but in a more relaxed, mom and pop restaurant vibe! Have it to-go and enjoy at home! Totally recommend!“

“I have eaten a lot place already. It's been a long time haven't got a good dinner. It definitely a wonderful place to dine in this area. Food taste excellent, the chef treated us very nice. Service was good, recommend this place 10/10. Had fantastic experience. If you have time, Go check it out.“

“Best sushi around! Fresh and the service is quick!“

“I’ve been living in Freehold for 27 years, yet I couldn’t even name another food court restaurant, let alone endear myself to any so much as I have Little Tokyo. When I was a little girl, I would so look forward to their INIMITABLE teriyaki dark meat chicken samples, and I spent my first wages ever on an actual meal from this place. It is a time-tested fixture at the Freehold mall, a must-have if you ever work or shop here and still a reliably fast and delicious option for me when I am in the area. I’m pretty sure I’ve been helped by the exact same woman at the front of the line my entire life, and she gives me a big smile every time I see her. I’ve tried teriyaki/bourbon chicken at other malls all over the state, and this is the only one that is not only delicious, but is prepared in way that is not greasy. This is truly the only place I will go for Americanized Chinese food and enjoy it at all. My go-to: 2 sides, 2 entrees - string beans and plantains, double teriyaki chicken. Even post-pandemic, the price is unbeatable for the amount of food you get.“

“Tough to go wrong here. Not the best you can get but definitely the best you can get for the money. Parking lot is awkward. Wouldn't even try to park next to the restaurant. Go behind the next cluster of stores next to it. Half priced sushi from open to close. I will not say a bad thing about the sushi vs the cost. Also got gyoza-couldve been a little crispier. 4 items including 2 spicy crab rolls for less than $25. Tough to beat“

“Ordered for the first time tonight. I figured it’s the busiest night of the year so I won’t be disappointed if it’s just “eh”. Wow was I surprised - THIS IS BY FAR THE BEST CHINESE TAKEOUT I HAVE HAD SINCE MOVING TO BRICK in 2003! Thank you for a delicious New Year’s Eve meal! You have a new customer!“

“Can I just give a shout out to this neighborhood gem who always delivers high quality, delicious sushi. They are creative, they are consistent, and are one of our top ‘go to’ places when we order in. Thank you Koi for being such a wonderful local business! 🍣🍱❤️“
