    I was craving Japanese food and found this place. I didn't realize it was downtown Northville, but I was happy there is a parking lot close by. I got there around 11:35 am when they opened so my friend and were seated right away. This place is much smaller than I thought. There are 6-7 booths and then tables in the middle. Ye bathrooms are in the back. It has a cozy vibe. I got the sushi combo (spicy tuna and spicy California roll) and the Michigan Roll. It came with miso soup and salad. I enjoyed my sushi! We also got chocolate chip ice cream afterwards - which was a nice treat/surprise. Food and service were great!

    Stopped by for lunch with the family. After reviewing the menu, we went with: - shrimp tempura & veggies - sushi lunch - Udon & Sushi lunch - Spider roll - Eel & Avocado - Spicy Tuna - Green Dragon - Tempura California - Salmon, Tuna, White Tuna & Yellowtail sashimi The rolls were decent, comparable to all other Japanese's restaurants in town. I like my sushi rice on the vinegary side.... and here they use very minimal as you can't taste the vinegar in the sushi rice. One thing they won me over was the sashimi. They cut their fish thick, which is rare. All other places I've been too, they like to cut their fish real thin, but not here. That was a big surprise, that added extra star to the review. Their shrimp tempura was 0 out of 5 stars. It needs major work. It came out all soggy, no crunch aspect to any of the tempura that was served unfortunately. That knocked off a star from the review. The service was good. Waster got filled without asking. Interior is small, reminded me of a Mexican restaurant, not sure if it was former Mexican joint before it became a Japanese joint, that's the vibe I kept getting. The chairs/tables seemed like leftover from the old restaurant.

    Each time we've come here it's been fantastic. Salsa roll and green dragon are our favorite rolls. The miso soup is really good here, and the nigiri rolls are also very generous portions. Service is prompt, it was very busy on a Friday evening so the were trying to turn tables over pretty quickly.

    Love Koji! It's been a family favorite for years. The sushi is always fresh and delicious, and their beef teriyaki is a must-try too!

    Service was great. We called to ask for a last minute reservation for a party of 9 and they were very accommodating. Food was pretty good too.

    One of my staple sushi spots for the price and quality. Service is nice and efficient. Gets quite busy during dinner time so expect to wait on Fridays and saturdays.

    Downtown Northville! We went here in Friday night. Place was not busy probably because it was past 9pm. Service was fast and decor was cozy. They have a large wooden models on display in the hotel which I found very kool. It was just my son and me and we ordered 3 sushi's about 8-10 pieces in each order. All were good!

    I Love this place. Always busy! Food is always delicious. Service is good. Chefs are nice. Bathroom is clean.

    The place is very busy and tight squeeze between tables but the seats are comfortable. The staff is always running around and get everything done asap. Ordered a few sushi rolls and a miso soup. The miso soup is has great flavor. Had the yellowtail tuna roll, shrimp tempura, California roll. The rolls were good the ginger had a light flavor.

    Your typical small sushi spot in ambiance. Sushi rolls were sub-par, lacking texture and flavor. There were many little annoyances including but not limited to: - The straws were too short for the cups - Waitstaff didn't check in during the meal - Waiter took water directly out of my hand mid sip to refill - Random free edamame was nice but we don't like it, so it was wasted - Asked us to hurry - after waiting 45 minutes to be seated - that they had a lot of people waiting to be seated after only being there an hour. (There was no one waiting when we left) Overall, not impressed, would not return but not the worst experience I've ever had.

    Service is always fast and friendly. Dining area is normally pretty busy and lively. Seating is tight but will accommodate small and large groups. Might have to wait a bit to get a seat. Sushi is a little pricey but not much more than places outside Northville.

    This place can get busy so expect to wait as I experienced longer wait times than usual. The service was good. Situated in downtown northville so it's a nice location - you can walk around after. Miso soup was good. I got the rainbow roll that I really liked. My brother got the Las Vegas roll and it was not my favorite but I just don't like cream cheese in sushi but my brother liked it. I would come here again or get take out if I am considering time

    It's been so long since my last review. I visit this restaurant fairly frequently. The service is great, I like the comfortable seating and it is a pleasant place to eat. I highly recommend the sushi and all its varieties. They do a very good work with their sushi. Fresh, tasty with a very nice presentation. Some of their dishes are very nice, the bento box is fun with a wide variety of treats and tastes. The udon's are quite good. I have experienced a couple times having the beef and chicken a little tough, I wish it was more tender consistently. Their flavors are on point though. I recommend their tempura, crispy and light. I do wish a couple of their apps were hand made, such as their shumai and gyoza. But, they are still good. This is a very pleasant local joint and I will be back!

Both rolls were very exquisite, the Red Dragon is something new I have never had before and I have to say that the spicy Mayo made it really good. I also had the Tempura Udon and it was very delicious. The egg yolk in the bowl was very creamy and the noodles were nice and soft. Everything here is very delicious. This is one of the coolest places I have been to you must definitely check it out.

The menu is strong but limited, which I kind of like- limits decision fatigue, especially after a long day. I ordered the nigiri combo, for the cause. Nigiri is something I've only really gotten into this year, so I'm not an expert, but I know what I like and what I don't. Soft, sticky rice that feels fresh and adhesive but not clumpy, fresh smelling and looking fish. The California roll was a California roll. The nigiri was great however. The shrimp in particular was light and almost creamy tasting? I know that sounds odd but I mean it in a good way. The rest of the fish was good. I even tried eel (this is big for me) for the cause! It was rich and fatty, but not in an unpleasant way as I feared. It was pleasantly sauced, so I was able to try it sans soy sauce and was pleased! I *really* liked the soy sauce here, although they don't give you very much. They also are a bit stingy with the ginger. This was my first time trying tamago, which is a delicately sweetened egg roll stuffed with rice. If you're not used to it, you have to get over the look and just go for it! It's yummy! The restroom was clean but smelled faintly of cigarettes. To be honest... I didn't mind that. It kind of fit with the vibe and gave the restaurant a "real" "edgy" feel, although some people may not appreciate it. The interior is kind of messy and unkempt, but if you keep your eyes on the prize- the food- you'll leave happy!

Having spent time exploring Japan and eating plenty of sushi there, this is probably the closest I've come in Michigan to recreating that experience.

The sushi and sashimi have been consistently excellent across my visits, and I especially appreciate that the menu goes well beyond the typical American sushi restaurant. There are plenty of traditional Japanese dishes and chef's-choice options, so it's a place where I'm always tempted to try something different. The atmosphere adds to the experience too.
