    10pc nigiri
    Will P.

    Came in for lunch and got the 10pc Nigiri lunch special. The freshest, most delicious fish served real fast. Miso soup was served as well and I waited for salad and rice but apparently you only get one? The menu said all three so I was confused. Otherwise all was great! Koi has been a staple since I was a kid and I don't come nearly often enough. Glad I came back, always looking forward to sushi.

    9/9/25 FYI. Chicken teriyaki lunch special

    Quality/Quantity - Our guest chose this place for lunch. Thank you for having a lunch special. Because I am just NOT an AYCE person! Everyone ordered the lunch specials today. But we also got the following appetizers: Tempura $12 - Exactly as described on the menu. Sorry, I guess everyone was hungry as the camera did NOT eat first. But for $12, it would have been nice if there were a few more pieces, at least extra veggie tempura. Just enough for one piece for each person. Agedashi Tofu $9 - This was slightly more quantity and definitely a better value. Our guests really enjoyed this. I tried one piece, but I am not much of a tofu person. Well. unless it is deep fried?!?! As for the lunch specials. I got the 10 piece Nigiri for $22 - I really enjoyed this. Decent quantity and quality. See my pictures of the rice to fish ratio. Well done. Everyone else seemed to enjoy their lunch specials also. See all my pictures. Also got tea, I think $3.75 a person. Expensive as I believe my guest thought the tea was complimentary... as some of them did NOT even drink any tea. And of course, I shared my large Asahi, $9. Almost got a second, lol. Atmosphere - Small local business. I can't remember the last time, if any, that we had been here?!?! Nice clean decor throughout, especially for being 11 years old. Small lot, but because you are at the very end, there were no problems getting a space. Open 7 days a week from noon to 9:30pm and on Sundays from 5pm to 9:30pm. Service - Overall good. Not many customers. Price - $213, which included the 18% tip for having a party of 6 and with a 3% credit card charge. $36 a person, a little expensive for what we got. But I was very happy with my lunch. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success since 2014. Not sure if I have been here before or maybe the previous business?!?! It has been a long time since we lived/played in Incline.

    Spicy crystal shrimp roll
    Alexandra W.

    Being one of the only places in Tahoe, makes it easy to compete. However, that's not a dig!! Koi has time & time again been consistent with what they deliver. My opinion (based on an early event weekday takeout experience): Miso Soup: Delicious broth. Nice on a rainy afternoon/evening. Quick turnaround: 10 mins total, from the time I placed the order to pickup. Staff: Always friendly & attentive! Atmosphere: It was relatively quiet & relaxing, but I did go on a Monday afternoon/evening. Ambient lighting. Cute date spot. Jalapeño poppers: A bit overpriced ($12.00) for 4 poppers. I liked the breading, but it was more of a panko so every time I bit into it the panko shell would fall off from the rest of it. I love that they did a krab/cream cheese mixture though! Also, not a fan of the sauce to dip them. It was good, just wasn't good with the poppers. Reminded me of L&L Hawaiian BBQ sauce. Crystal Shrimp Handroll: Spicy on request and was the a great mixture of ingredients. Although the baked/friend crystal shrimp was mushy (not crispy) so it all blended into "soft" mess. Still tasty though! Regardless, it's a great little spot & I'll continue to drop by when I find myself up in Incline Village.

    Carlos special
    Jennifer P.

    Place is clean and cute. Food tasted fresh and yummy. All you can eat lunch is $41. A little too much for me and I'm not that hungry at the moment. I opted for gyoza and Carlos special. Sat at the bar and the service was great. Leena was so nice.

    Went on a vacation to Lake Tahoe for 3 nights. Found this gem, and we ended up going here for dinner 2/3 nights!!! The AYCE Quality is astounding. I've been the many AYCE restaurants, and this spot takes to cake for the quality and quantity they give. Each roll doesn't look/ taste rushed. The nigiri was fresh and were large cuts! The Hamachi (Yellowtail Nigiri) was my favorite, I ordered it every round. My only warning/ complaint is that service gets a little slow, and had us waiting for our next round of orders for around 10+ mins. We could see our orders waiting on the bar for a while after the servers finish chit chatting amongst themselves. It gets busy around 5-6pm just like any dinner rush, so be prepared to wait a little bit if you plan to go around this time. We only waited 10mins. Nonetheless, for an AYCE restaurant, the sushi is amazing and offer unique rolls. I highly recommend this place if you're staying nearby or specifically looking for AYCE.

    Love koi for all you can eat! Their fish always is delicious, the restaurant itself is very cute they always have happy upbeat music playing, and the staff are all incredibly friendly! As a local I'm here at least once a month; with friends, family, or just myself when I'm craving it. There is a +3% for card payment so bring cash when you can but they do still accept all card payments! Always love coming here

    I love me an all you can eat and I was really hungry. However we had early dinner reservations so I thought better of it. We got a bunch of apps and rolls to share. I love the garlic edamame. I don't know why more places don't do that. Missing a little salt but really delicious. I really enjoyed all the rolls we got. The fish was fresh and the rice well seasoned. The only drawback was the rice was really heavy so I could see the all you can eat being not an advantageous as advertised. I'm really curious too how the ordering works for ayce. The server made it sound like you just order whatever. The only dud was the fried California roll. For whatever reason it came really late to the table. The frying made the rice extra gummy so it wasn't really pleasant. Overall solid place. I could see myself going back

    While the service was good I don't think I will ever visit when i'm town again. At first the rolls were good, but I have never had this happen before. With 2 of the rolls that had eel in it we kept spitting multiple bones out of it and when we called over one of the ladies to let them know she looked at us like we were lying until we showed them the bones. They did remove it off of our tab but we left not only feeling unsatisfied but also uncomfortable.

    High roller
    Angelica H.

    I was skeptical about getting sushi in the Tahoe area but I decided to give this place a try & I was pleasantly surprised. They offer a wide variety of rolls, and I like that they included a cooked roll section for people like me who don't really consume raw fish. The high roller & Friday nite roll were really good. The service was also great :)

    Great ambiance, service and food. Customer service was top notch. Friendly, attentive and checked in every so often. I ordered sushi and it was deliciously prepared. Great spot for a family dinner, date night or to get your sushi fix.

Our server was friendly and knowledgeable, and she did a great job walking us through the day's specials as well as some of her favorite picks. I started with the In Crowd cocktail and really enjoyed it. The coconut, basil, and bitters balanced beautifully with the gin, making for a super refreshing drink that felt especially perfect for spring or summer weather. We followed our server's advice and ordered four items, two larger plates and two starters, and everything was delicious. Here's the breakdown: Trout Dip: Fantastic smoky, fishy flavor in all the right ways, served with crostinis. The only small nitpick was that the crostinis were overdone for my taste and shattered loudly when bitten into. Grilled Prawns: Super meaty and seasoned and sauced perfectly, with a bed of slaw that balanced the dish nicely. Scallops: Seared to perfection and in an addicting red Thai curry sauce. I was intrigued by the combo of kimchi, grits, and curry and have to say that it somehow blends amazingly well. Lamb Chops: Cooked to a perfect medium rare, expertly seasoned, with little gaminess and a cooling yogurt sauce that really brought the dish together. All in all, it was a fantastic meal and easy to see why this place is such a favorite among both locals and tourists. The food, the drinks, and the service all come together to make this a great option for any occasion from a casual night out (us) to celebrating something memorable like a graduation (several were happening while we were there).

The burrata was nice but crostini was so hard I thought it might tear up my mouth. Gnuddi was tasty but very oily. Great ambience and perfect for a wine drinker - extensive list. We would bring family or friends there for a night classy night out, but it wasn't overwhelmingly amazing to us.

Here is what we noticed: - Our reservation was at 5:30, the time they open, and a bunch of people arrived all at once, but they quickly seated us all - They only serve beer and wine, but their wine list was really good and bottle prices were very reasonable for a restaurant. - Our server came over pretty quickly despite so many people arriving at once. - The menu is pretty broad with lots of different options, and there were many other specials as well. - My wife and I ordered the rack of lamb and the fettuccine with shrimp with added scallops. Both dishes came with complementary soup first. It's difficult to say which dish we liked more since both were excellent. The bread and hummus on the table was a welcome addition, and was especially good for sopping up the wonderful sauce from each dish. - We got tempted by dessert and opted for the bread pudding with a side of homemade ice cream. Wow wow wow is all I can say! - Service was great...There were three people working the entire place so service was attentive, but not overbearing. Bottom line: I almost don't want to rave too much because I don't want the place to get too crowded, but it's better than any place around that we've been to. We'll be back for sure!
