First time trying here yesterday and cannot wait to come back! The restaurant is a nice little intimate space with a few tables located along the perimeter and some bar counter seating available as well. The staff and service was great from the start, being welcomed in and regularly checked on throughout the meal, which leads me to the best part: the food. I don't think anything missed this visit (even the water)! Everything from the miso soup and house ginger salad, to the chicken fried rice, eel hand roll, and salmon teriyaki all were absolutely fantastic! Their menu is extensive too, so plenty of options for all tastes. I am very much looking forward to my next meal here! read more

Sushi was outstanding, was not expecting that. Service was over the top with recommendations and chef was very friendly. Doesnt come across as a classy place, but the sushi is better than most. I would bring out of towners here and even dates, based on food and service. read more

Hubby and I LOVE sushi and we saw this place on the drive home and thought we would give it a try since it had a 4.6 rating on Google. I love noodles so we chose the yaki beef and I'm used to the noodles being thinner but they made it udon instead and I was pleasantly surprised because I love a good udon stir fry! It was delicious as far a the sushi goes we ordered the "hot dog" roll, but didn't see any description that it was deep fried so that was a bit disappointed because he does not like his rolls fried, on top of the crazy amount of tempura crunch drizzled on top so it wasn't our favorite. The eel and spicy Philly roll we're good at least. Our server was very nice but the main thing that bothered me was when she brought my card back with the receipts it showed that the tip was added and nothing was mentioned. I had to ask her after and I just think it's a courtesy to let the guest know if gratuity is added or it feels sketchy. Overall it was still a good experience, and we'll be back for the yaki again! read more

Koko's Japanese Restaurant - Yaki beef and sushi - Japanese Near Me - Alpharetta, Georgia

Koko's is a small sushi restaurant, and a pleasure to visit. The menu has a good selection of plates of which some are themed with humoristic names. The venue provides with absolutely fantastic and high-quality japanese flavors. The incredients are fresh, and the friendly chefs know the proper techniques; yet the price tag won't be extraordinarily high. This place is definitely worth visiting again. read more

Koko's has always been one of our sushi spots as it has fresh fish and a really large selection of rolls. We always order both sashimi and rolls. The sashimi is always fresh and we often try different rolls that are almost always on point. (Sometimes trying new rolls I may not be a fan of a certain ingredient) I would have given them five stars but I believe like many other restaurants. They are shorthanded, and the food took a little bit longer last time than I had hoped. To their defense, it was a Friday night. All in all, it was a great experience. read more

We love you guys. Always great food, always great service. We are made to feel like family and we will be back. We 100% support your wonderful business. Sara and zack xoxo read more

Koko's Japanese Restaurant - The best sushi you'll ever have. Please please come here. Get to know the wonderful chefs and owners. This place is amazing. - Japanese Near Me - Alpharetta, Georgia

I love salmon teriyaki and they have one of the best ones in the JC area. The salmon isn't dry and they cook it well enough to let the salmon absorb the right amount of teriyaki sauce so it's not too heavy. I wish I had gotten the name of my server - She was so nice and always made sure to check up on us! Plus she was very patient and helpful when we took awhile to order. I had the spider roll last time and it was delicious! The prices are similar to other sushi restaurants but I think their sushi is more fresh than other places. read more

Went there based on the passionate reviews. The staff (owners?) were sweet and lovely, but the sushi was just OK. My search for the best sushi continues. read more

So, I just don't normally hand out 5 star ratings, but this little place has become one of the most underrated places to get sushi that I have gone to. It is truly and consistently amazing to the point where I eat 3-4 meals a week there. The other thing to note here is that when I first started going here, I had a lot of friends who didn't like it. Apparently something changed right about that time because now every single friend I have, many who don't even like Sushi, love this place. Some of the additional recommendations I have are: Golden Bridge Roll -- Spicy tuna with Unagi and Avocado -- hands down my favorite roll. Korean Charishi -- I don't know if I spelled that right and I don't care. This is one of those ones you just have to try to love. Yaki noodles w/seafood -- OMG just...OMG. For lunch, any of the boxes are a great deal, but the Sushi/Sashimi boat takes the prize. read more

My young daughter told me about this place. She and her pre-teen friends went there to eat a few times and she told me she fell in love with sushi! I asked if they tipped the servers and she looked at me in pure confusion, so apologies to whoever has served my daughter and her friends . Anywho, we tried a few rolls, some pork gyoza, and chicken fried rice, and it was very fresh and delicious. The price wasn't bad either! Today, I didn't realize they opened at 4:30 and called to place an order for pickup before 4pm. We were headed for a long drive and didn't have time to wait until 4:30. I was going to cancel the order because it was my mistake that I didn't note the time, but the lovely lady on the phone spoke to someone and they accommodated me. When I arrived 10 minutes later they were all so sweet, greeted me with smiles, and our hungry family was able to grab a quick snack before we hit the road. Thanks again for going above and beyond for us! read more

New to Alpharetta and have lived most of my life in the city. I was concerned about finding a good everyday place for Sushi and one that delivered. This is the place! The owner prepared sushi at the sushi bar. The servers are warm, polite and attentive. Please try the special Salmon appetizer. It takes a bit longer which they explain upfront but it's worth the few extra minutes ;-) read more

My husband's favorite place for sushi and I actually get cravings for their veggie tempura. The service is always great and they have a large menu of a variety of food to choose from. I am actually allergic to shellfish and usually leery of Asian restaurants because of the risk of cross-contamination. I always tell the server of my allergy and they know immediately that means to avoid touching my food after handling shellfish or putting my food where there is shrimp or crab. I have never had a reaction after eating here. read more

Had a take out last night and was disappointed. Simple chicken and shrimp Fried Rice was over cooked and dry. Not the fresh tasting meal that we are use to getting when eating at KOKO's. The portion was also lunch size...... new chef?? Sushi rolls were good! read more

Best Sushi and service I have ever had in my life. The people are genuine and lovely. Not a grain of rice was left after I was done with it! Will definitely be back. Sugoi! Arigato! read more

Koko's is a really great whole in the wall restaurant. They have large portions of sushi that are mostly 8 piece. My wife and i had two regular roles, two specialty roles, and two soups for about $40. They also gave me sky more traditional Japanese dishes. The device was great! Very sweet lady! We live nearby so we plan to go back soon! read more

Great lunch with my grown son today. We both had sushi lunch special. California roll and 5 pieces of sushi, chefs choice. Nice fresh tuna, salmon and white fish. Lunch also included miso soup , small salad and selection of deep fried veggies. Great service great affordable lunch. We will be back! read more

Exceeded any expectations. I will definitely be coming back. Waitress was attentive and delightful. The food presentation was simple and elegant. The food itself was flavorful and had a good sized portion. read more

Food was fresh, great and beautifully presented. They have good appetizer menu and huge selection for maki rolls. Their sushi and maki rolls were not overly drizzled in sauce. Service was attentive and fast. Comfortable experience. read more

Ordered take out from here based on all the great reviews and I was sadly disappointed. Relocating from New York City, I know what real sushi is and this is not it....well, let me clarify. My fiance and I ordered 3 rolls, and 2 miso soups to go. We both love Vegetarian rolls, so we ordered a Cucumber asparagus roll, cucumber avocado roll, and an asparagus avocado roll. After we ordered we were told 25-30 minutes and we could pick it up....really? For 3 veggie rolls (these are not even cooked dishes!). My fiance comes back home with one small little sushi tray and a small Styrofoam container of soup. There are only 16 roll slices in here, which leads me to believe that one is missing. Surely for the $15 we paid they must have forgot ton to put the 3rd roll in. I call Koko's back up and explain the situation. The take out girl is obviously not understanding me and hands the phone off to an American man with a thick southern accent. He promptly tells me that a 3rd roll was never ordered. Hmm, okay...well it was, your phone girl didn't write it down. After much dilly dallying on this guys part he finally told me that if I wanted a 3rd roll, I could order it and come back in and pay for it. I am shocked that I wasn't already charged for this 3rd roll in question because $15 for 2 veggie rolls and a tiny container of miso soup is robbery. I could have spent $6 at Kroger for the food I got. He tells me that the rolls were each $5 (outrageous for nonfish rolls), and the soup was $3.50, also outrageous for the small portion of soup that was given. I tell him that I won't be doing business with him again and he seems fine with it. I would NOT recommend this place because their customer service is horrible and they are grossly overcharging and RUDE! Do not waste your time with this garbage. read more

Nice neighborhood sushi spot. The chef is very crafty and makes some cool (and delicious) sushi. The decor inside is pretty cool as well. The sushi is always fresh and I have yet to have something I didn't like. The best part of this place is the lunch specials. I usually go for the Sashimi special (which comes with soup/salad/and fried veggie tempura) as well as a HUGE amount of Sashimi with a spicy tuna roll. I always have enough left for dinner or a snack later in the day. I would be content eating this meal everyday. I'm almost positive they lace the spicy tuna roll with crack, it looks bland but the flavors are outstanding! I have yet to try to bento boxes, which look fantastic as well because I am so in love with the sashimi I feel it would be cheating. The lunch specials really make this place 5 star. read more

Homely little restaurant serving home cooked Japanese cuisine. I took 2 stars way because: Service was rushed - my udon was taken away before I finished. Check was brought before we we finished (without being asked). When we asked to get dessert, was told nothing was available which felt like the sever did not want to take the bill back and adjust it. Taste of food - while the food tasted home cooked, the taste was not exceptional. We ordered fried fish, seafood udon, sashimi and chicken teriyaki. read more

After this place, I am no longer a sushi virgin. I must say, that my first time was awesome and having it here, made it even better. Everything that I had tasted so good and so very fresh. The people who worked there are incredibly friendly. I can't wait to go back and try more new stuff! read more

We have been going to Koko's for many years. Over time we have ordered almost every thing on the menu. EVERYTHING is delicious! Sushi chef David seems to put his heart into his work and it shows. We love the atmosphere as well. It is very welcoming. If you like Sushi, then you should definitely try this place! read more

I stumbled upon this while looking for Sushi Mania one day for lunch. It turns out to be a nice little gem of a restaurant. I had a bento box for lunch and the fish was pretty good and the service was very good. It was fairly deserted when I was here. read more

I've given this place 4 chances to change my mind. But I'm not a glutton for punishment and 4 visits is plenty. The final straw came when, an order of lunch Sashimi Plate came half-frozen and bloody. Disgusting. Previous visits were worse: dishwater miso soup, bottled teriyaki sauce on meats, nigiris with a pound of undercooked rice, sushi made with old fish, tempura fried in rancid oil... and many other mishaps. I tried. I did. But you are finally off my list. read more

Ate lunch there today with wife and son. Had here different items off the lunch menu, so didn't dig into the sushi side of thing much aside from the California rolls as part of the lunches. That said the chicken katsu was on point, the tempura was nice and light and the salmi was cooked nicely. Old school vibe inside, but comfortable. Will definitely be back for lunch and will give the sushi bar a try at some point. read more
