The…read moresalad dressing blew my mind-usually ginger dressing is light brown so I was thrown off with the light orangey color but it's made with freshly grated ginger, just wow. The mango tango roll had a lot of great texture and flavors. While I loved the sweet potato appetizer and dipping sauce, I probably wouldn't get it again unless sharing with friends. I also wouldn't pair it with the mango tango roll because the flavors do not match but individually everything was incredible! Service was prompt, friend, and attentive. And they had great upbeat pop songs. It's a no-brainer to try this restaurant.

Came back this time to eat inside at lunch, service was still a bit slow I thought. Food was good tasting but not special or wowing. Ordered tuna tataki as appetizer and I was disappointed by it compared to other tataki I've had - it was kind of bland and didn't pop (not enough yuzu). The firecracker roll had this crunchy fried crab sticks on top that was very addictive though! There are other food types like noodles, hibachi that I didn't try

Overall, Koi Sushi delivered a good dining experience with a few standout dishes and a couple of…read morequirks. We started with the edamame, which was a touch salty but still tasty. For sushi, we tried the Kimberly Roll and the Cao Roll, and both were excellent--easily the highlight of the meal. The Kimberly Roll, with its slight jalapeño kick on top, is a must-try for anyone who enjoys a little heat. The chicken and steak fried rice was another winner--flavorful and served in a very generous portion. The chicken katsu, breaded in panko, was good as well, but the sauce on the side was served cold. Our server mentioned that only their teriyaki sauce is served hot, which felt odd given that the dish itself comes out hot. In our humble opinion, heating up the sauces would make a big difference. Service was a B: a bit slow and not particularly warm, though not unfriendly. The ambiance matched what you'd expect from a hibachi-style restaurant--lively with the occasional flash of hibachi flames across the way, which adds some fun energy to the room. Bottom Line: Koi Sushi offers some great sushi and hearty portions, with the Kimberly Roll stealing the show. Service could be sharper and those cold sauces need attention, but if you're in Gulfport and craving sushi, it's worth a visit.

Before coming here, I noticed that this restaurant is identical to OEC in Hattiesburg. Sushi was OK, again very identical to OEC on looks and taste. I would need to get the yakimeshi here to fully compare but the sushi overall was OK, I don't think I would get that role again and possibly even sushi again but I would come back to try to the yakimeshi.

I tried this place as this was one of the few places opened on a Monday. I ended up going at night…read moretime at 5pm during opening as I was really hungry and I had $120 dollars to spend and had a long drive home. The server I had was really nice and attentive as he came and checked in and filled my water up. Some servers just leave you alone and I just at and answered my questions on some of the prices like lobster and the duck. Here is what I ordered: 1. BBQ Roasted duck 2. Surf and Turf 3. Shrimp Stir Fry Now of course I did not eat everything and took some food to go. But I did enjoy most of the food. I would definitely get the surf and turf again as the steak was cooked perfect and lobster tail was awesome. The BBQ duck was alright, they gave me the tortilla wraps, but expecting more of the bread which is alright. I ordered the shrimp vegetable stir fry as well and that was good too and I needed some vegetables. Atmosphere was cool, there was no Japanese steak chefs that day, but I am sure they come out during the weekend. I probably take my wife here to eat next time.

While I enjoy spicy food, I found the dish overly spicy to the point that it was hard to fully enjoy, though the sauce itself had a good flavor. The sushi was solid, and the staff were friendly and attentive throughout our visit. The facility was also clean and well-kept, which was a plus. Overall, while Tien has some good qualities, I believe the coast has better options for Asian cuisine, and I'd likely choose one of those over Tien in the future.

We got started a little later than our reservation time, having to wait for the staff to prepare. Our hibachi chef Harry, however, was skillful and personable, the high point of our evening. We followed with a variety of sushi rolls and although price points were a little high, all were good and attractively presented. Although I have had better Japanese hibachi and sushi, I am surprised in some of the very low scores Haiku has received. Our party of six enjoyed itself and the crowded dining room would suggest that something good is going on here. We will return and try again.

Just when I think I have written enough reviews and that there is nothing else to say, I go into a…read morerestaurant, and then I happen to find a place that you weren't expecting by accident. However, at the same time, you are happy that you did. So, let's get into the nitty-gritty of this review. The first time I went there for lunch, I sat in a booth so I could work while eating. So, I tried the Shrimp Teriyaki Box. It was terrific. So much so that I decided to order my dinner to go: the Steak and Salmon Hibachi Dinner Combo. I had my steak medium well. Later that evening, when I partook of my dinner, that steak was SO tender, juicy, and melted in my mouth. There is nothing like a good cut of meat and someone who knows how to cook it just right. The next day, one of my colleagues was interested in trying it after I told her about it. We ordered the following: Hibachi Fuji Yama Combination, Gyoza, Tempura Combo APP, along with a Fried California Roll, which was a first for me. But you're talking about some kind of good. The service on every occasion was fantastic; the staff were very attentive and cheerful, offering recommendations if you were unsure of anything. The atmosphere was engaging, clean, and not too noisy, where you can not only hear yourself think but also the other people in your party. If you're in the area, treat yourself to this restaurant; it's worth it.

Where do we start first off? What offputting is before you sit down? They're like oh yeah we have…read morean additional charge for hibachi so after you come in and you're waiting for a seat they tell you this so it's such a weird tone for the service. Say we're sitting at had a birthday and it took about 30 minutes to start and nobody else was in the restaurant but our one table I asked my waited twice when will the food start because it seemed like we were sitting for so long? Once the show started, it was OK we love hibachi so we eat it a lot all over the country maybe in about 30 hibachi places but this is where it goes wrong. The Chef messed up our order and didn't have all the food for our order and then didn't make it so we order the salmon and shrimp. We didn't get any shrimp but he gave our appetizer shrimp to everyone else at the table except us even though shrimp was part of my hibachi order. Mention it to the Chef he shrugged it off as if he didn't care and they were very clean . If you're in Hattiesburg driving through like we were keep driving and find something else
