About this restaurant

  • Lively
  • Good for business meals
  • Good for groups
Rich earth tones of orange, red and brown impart warmth to the cool and tranquil space. Thin tapestries of translucent rose fabric are embellished with flame motifs and suspended from the ceiling, creating a separate seating area perfect for a light bite near the large front windows.
Famous for its unique and mouth-watering interpretation of Japanese cuisine. Upscale Japanese fare is given a jolt of new life through an innovative use of ingredients, resulting in refreshing and exciting flavor combinations. Crispy Rice with Spice Tuna, an addictive version of the classic spicy tuna roll, featuring warm grilled rice topped with a thick layer of cool, savory tuna. Baked Crab Roll, for which succulent fresh crabmeat is wrapped in a thin rice crepe paper dotted with sesame seeds and baked to perfection. Hamachi Fusion with Soy-Citrus and Truffle Essence all artfully plated by Koi’s skilled culinary team.

    Koi is over priced. Staff friendly but slow to respond to request. It took so long to get condiments after entrees came to table.

    Overall very good experience. Food was excellent and the service left nothing to be desired. The restaurant is on the smaller side and we had a group of 6 that was pretty tight, even with an extra chair added on the end. I would suggest for large(r) groups you make sure that there is plenty of room for your whole party. Like I said overall a great experience and would absolutely recommend for smaller groups.

    Honestly, it was an extremely enjoyable experience. The service was OUTSTANDING. I’m talking like top of the line. Everything came out fresh and trust me, my partner & I enjoyed every single bite & sip. Will be absolutely coming back, one of the better restaurants in the city.

    I used to live coming to this restaurant but our experience was the food was not up to our expectations this last time. To be fair Friday the potstickers and creamy rock shrimp were good. The rolls were nothing special and the crispy rice and miso cod seemed average as compared to times past. Great service and the room is nice

    Had a great experince here. The ambiance in this place was great and if you’re picky like me about decor, this place will meet your standards. It’s very well designed on the interior. I requested a happy birthday desert for my wife’s bday and they delivered. The quality, texture and taste of the sushi was fresh and 10/10. Shout out to our waiter Lesly, he was on point on the menu, very friendly and recommended some good drinks. If you’re in the time square area and want some good New York sushi, check this place out and ask for Lesly. Thanks Koi
