Koi Los Angeles

At new renovated location is great customer service. Manager here is super friendly and attentive. Food always fresh and delicious. We just not to happy with tipping machine situation. The waiter is always watching behind our shoulder while we are adding gratuity. Feeling under the pressure.

The ambience was very nice - upscale. Food is OK. Could make a bit more fancy to match the price

Aesthetic of this restaurant is super cool and the food was even better. Great find when we were recently in LA. I would definitely eat here again if we were back in town even before trying something new.

Despite a regular reservation processed through the hotel, we were put aside in a nearby room instead of the main room restaurant…very disappointing. The food was disappointing as well…

Koi Los Angeles: A Culinary Masterpiece!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Koi Los Angeles, and I must say, it was an absolute delight! The moment I stepped through the doors, I was enveloped in an atmosphere of elegance and sophistication. From start to finish, my experience at Koi was nothing short of exceptional.

What's even more remarkable is that I owe this incredible culinary adventure to a fantastic recommendation by none other than Sean Hays. His impeccable taste and discerning palate led me to discover this hidden gem, and I am beyond grateful for his suggestion.

From the moment I perused the menu, I knew I was in for something special. The diverse selection of dishes showcased a harmonious blend of flavors and artful presentation. Every bite was a symphony of taste, texture, and innovation. The attentive staff guided me through the menu, offering insightful recommendations that perfectly complemented my preferences.

I had the pleasure of indulging in the signature dishes, each of which was a masterpiece in its own right. The Black Cod Miso was a revelation – tender, succulent, and bursting with umami flavors that danced on my palate. The Crispy Rice topped with delectable spicy tuna was a delightful play on textures, while the Yellowtail Carpaccio was a refreshing and exquisite start to my culinary journey.

The ambiance at Koi Los Angeles is simply enchanting. The warm lighting, modern decor, and soothing music created a welcoming atmosphere that set the stage for an unforgettable evening. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply seeking a memorable dining experience, Koi Los Angeles is the perfect destination.

In conclusion, my visit to Koi Los Angeles was an extraordinary adventure, and I owe a heartfelt thank you to Sean Hays for his impeccable recommendation. This establishment is truly deserving of its five-star reputation, as it delivers not only exceptional cuisine but also an unforgettable journey for the senses. I wholeheartedly recommend Koi Los Angeles to anyone seeking a culinary experience that transcends the ordinary.

Thank you, Koi Los Angeles, for an evening of culinary enchantment and impeccable service. I eagerly await my next visit to savor more of your delectable offerings.

Sincerely,
Christopher Warren

Visited Koi on a Saturday night for dinner and drinks with my wife and friends. The atmosphere is very nice with big booths in the front room. Our server was excellent (I think his name was Brian). We had a bunch of laughs with him and he was very accommodating the entire evening. The food was great with plenty of options for everyone at the table. If you go early enough, there is plenty of street parking. Valet options are also available.

Very unprofessional the manger lets people sit before you even when you have reservations they let you Waite and let guest sit according to knowing them very bad customer service

Waitress kept bringing out double of orders we didn’t ask for because she had problems hearing, but then had the nerve to include her mistakes in our bill.

The waitress was a brunette with dimples. I would recommend reminding her that if you mess up an order - it should be FREE on the house. We did not deserve to pay for her mistakes.

We were placed in a dark and unpleasant part of the restaurant, although the dishes were made with good raw materials and were very messy.the combinations of flavors really bad since all the dishes were overlaid with very banal and nauseating sauces.plus the prices too expensive for the food they give you

A lot of cheap pomposity, hostesses are just boors, valet can't drive, cooks see knives and forks for the first time.if you want a lot of useless show-off, you are here.if you want a good atmosphere and delicious food in a pleasant place, don't come here.

One of my favorite sushi spots in Weho!
The food is amazing and service is great!

Updated:

Still one of my favorites!
We came in last night and had an amazing dinner!

Absolutely horrible service, they don't honor their reservation times at all. You show up and they waste your time by not having tables available. What's the point of a reservation then. Manager was also rude and unhelpful and made it seem like a table being unavailable was our fault. On top of that sushi is mediocre at best with a snobby atmosphere.

Wow! Just wow! Everything we ate here tasted fantastic! The ambience was very pleasant not overly loud and it was so nice inside! We ordered the Creamy Shrimp Tempura, Edamame, Koi Crispy Rice (spicy tuna), spicy shrimp tempura roll, the sunfire roll, and lastly the Grilled Lamb chops. The drinks were also fantastic. As far as the food went I would rate it…

Creamy Shrimp Tempura- 5 but definitely spicy.

Edamame- 5 not too salty perfectly seasoned.

Koi Crispy Rice- 5 literally fantastic my favorite thing that i tasted

Spicy Shrimp Tempura Roll- 5 so tasty so much flavor to something so simple!

Sunfire Roll- 4 good but a lot going on in flavor

Grilled Lamb Chops- 4 the flavors were super tasty but it’s nothing that completely blew me away. But it still was tasting delicious.

I will definitely be returning here! The experience was great. The ambiance was relaxing and a good dinner out. Our server was very attentive and was very helpful with the items on the menu!

Koi restaurant offers an exquisite dining experience. The ambiance is elegant and the service is attentive.

Whether you're a sushi lover or prefer cooked dishes, Koi offers something to satisfy every palate. The prices are on the higher side, but the quality and experience make it worth it. Overall, Koi restaurant provides a memorable dining experience with its exceptional food and refined atmosphere.

I’ve been eating at Koi for 10 years. Excellent food and staff. The upper managment here is top notch. They recently were forced to moved to a new space right next door. This must have been tough for them. Fortunately they totally pulled it off. Place looks great! Its very busy with the same great service and food. Glad to see them still doing good

It’s a really nice restaurant. The reservation service is very cool (you get to verify you’re still coming in the day of your reservation with a little reminder). The food was great, the only thing i found unfortunate was that some of it was somewhat spicy even though the menu didn’t mention it. Our waitress was great and made good recommendations. The best dish was definitely the salmon carpaccio

I have been visiting this restaurant for last couple of years. Always had a great experience. But today June 14th, 2023 was probably the worst experience. I had made a 8pm reservation went there around 8: 15, I was asked to wait for few minutes which turned out to be a 45 minute wait. After the 45 minute mark went to the reservation desk to ask about how much more time is it going to take but the girl at the desk didn’t even bother to look at my face even though I literally said “excuse me miss” for 5-6 times. Everyone around me could hear me perfectly fine except her. Clearly she doesn’t know how to respect the guests & doesn’t know how to do her job.

Never going back again!

Rude valet unfriendly towards uber eats drivers people should stop ordering take outs from places that treat drivers poorly valet doesnt let drivers leave car for pick up and there is no parking spots. Other restaurants are able to do it and be polite to drivers but they cant? Will make sure to tell costumer about this
