    Excellent food, incredible service, beautiful setup. Sushi is not just food here, it's an art. I tried a couple rolls paired with a pot of green tea and everything tasted fresh and delicious. I look forward to coming again and bringing some friends next time!

    Food and service were amazing; salmon belly melts in your mouth. The ambience was calm and relaxing, perfect for date night.

    I think Koshi has the best QUALITY fish out of all the sushi restaurants I've been to in the Norfolk area. Although it is on the pricier side, I recommend coming here if you want a sushi date night out. All the sushi rolls are incredibly good and the chirashi bowl was very well seasoned with sushi vinegar and the fish was incredibly fresh. You have to park on the street, but usually there's always street parking available. If not, you can park across the street at the little strip parking lot. The waiter was also very sweet and made sure everything we needed was tended to.

    I finally got to try this restaurant! Lol I pass it everytime, but forget they are only opened in the evenings. Let's just say everything was excellent! The decore was nice modern feel, and service was perfect! The presentation of each dish was pretty, plus it all tasted so good. And dish can make to order. For example I ordered the tuna tartar, but I asked for them to make a salmon version. So cool! Also ordered gyoza dumplings, seaweed salad, sunomono and couple of our favorite sushi rolls., I am excited to come again and try other wonderful dishes!

    This spot is a must-visit for fresh sushi and attentive service. The restaurant is very well decorated with tables and booths to choose from. I enjoyed the sashimi dinner which came with soup and salad. It is a bit pricey compared to other spots but the quality of the food and service is well worth it. I am looking forward to my next visit.

    Consistently Great Experience at Koshi! My husband and I often come to Koshi for our date nights, and it's become one of our favorite spots. The atmosphere is always warm and welcoming, which makes it perfect for a relaxing evening out. We usually start with the garlic lime and kanisu--both are fresh and full of flavor. The sashimi deluxe is our go-to for the main course, and we like to pair it with cold sake. There's a great variety of sake here, and we enjoy trying something new each time. Service is usually attentive and friendly, even when they're busy. During peak dinner hours, the food can take a little longer to come out, but it's clear that everything is made fresh to order, which we appreciate. If you're into quality sushi and a calm, inviting setting, Koshi is definitely worth checking out.

    Koshi is hands-down my go-to spot! The vibe is always warm and inviting, and the service never disappoints. Whether it's a chill night or the place is packed, everything runs smoothly and the staff stays super attentive. Shout-out to Maki, one of the sweetest and most attentive waitresses around--she always makes us feel welcome and taken care of. Her friendly energy adds so much to the experience! I've tried almost everything on the menu, but the sashimi dinner is my absolute favorite--the fish is always fresh and high quality. Their cocktail menu is also a highlight--tons of variety and fun new drinks to try every time. Every visit is consistently great. If you're into fresh food, good vibes, and awesome service, Koshi is 100% worth checking out!

    I found this restaurant since my first option for dinner fell through. I just parked and walked until I found someplace promising. This was where I landed! This sushi spot seemed very upscale. The decorations were really well done and the sushi chefs were busy making orders. I sat in front of the sushi chefs and initially it was awkward for me. It was just me alone and no one greeted me. After awhile I went to use the bathroom and debate on whether I should stay. (The toilet was pretty awesome by the way, with a bidet feature I didn't use and a warm seat that took me by surprise!) I decided to stay and sat at the bar instead. There, I received service. I ended up ordering the soju mule, tuna carpaccio, and the salmon skin roll. The mule was very yummy! It was a perfect start to my dinner. Next, the carpaccio. The tuna was so fresh and I loved the flavors together. I was not sure if I should try it but it turned out super yummy. Finally, the star of the show. OH MAN. The salmon skin roll. What a choice! It was divine. The skin was so crunchy and the flavors just went so well together. I keep thinking about that roll! I'm definitely coming back for it! Honestly I would give 4.5 stars if I could but I have to account for the awkward beginning. I just didn't feel welcome initially even though I felt better at the bar. I will still return!

    Still pretty good sushi, especially when I'm in the downtown area this is my go to when I lived in Ghent a few years ago. Ordered take out the favs and oldy but goody tuna lover, salmon lover, star roll. Ordered yaki soba noodles, edamame, and salmon sashimi. The prices have gone up but that seems to be a common occurrence.

    If you're looking for sushi in Hampton Roads, look no further. This place is top-notch. I came here on recommendation of a Japanese acquaintance of mine, who noted that the quality was unparalleled. Verdict: it was. We slept on this gem (hidden down 21st st in Ghent) way too long! My husband and I went rather early on a Friday evening, and found it was pleasantly quiet, with a steady crowd that began to trickle in around 7. The atmosphere was clean, cozy, and sophisticated enough for a date night or casual dinner. We started with the Ika Geso - lightly fried calamari which was dusted in a seasoning and served with lemon. We then split the Charlie Brown roll and Tuna Ninja roll. The torched scallop on the Charlie Brown roll melted in our mouths - it was unlike any sushi we'd ever had before. The tuna in the tuna ninja roll was of a similar quality - delicate, clean, and flavorful. Everything came out to about $50 - a solid deal.

    Is it all you can eat sushi?

    It's not all you can eat, but the menu has several pretty good combos that will leave you satisfied. The rolls are pretty decently sized and shouldn't allow you to leave hungry.

    Can you get brown rice?

    No they only offer white rice and sushi rice for the rolls.

My Grandson, even as we were walking in, said "Yes!" Soothing instrumental K-Pop music was playing at a volume level that didn't interfere with conversation. We were promptly provided with menus. Included in the choices was his favorite dish mool naengmyeon. which is even hard to find in Brooklyn. My son ordered the same, along with tteokbokki to share. Needing protein and something not hot during the heat wave, I ordered the chicken katsu, which came with miso soup and steamed rice. It was all excellent. One lady was taking care of service for the entire restaurant. She was extremely friendly and kind, especially to my grandson. Following the meal we were served sujeonggwa, a Korean traditional cinnamon tea. It was an excellent finish to a wonderful dinner. Following the meal my grandson gave our server the traditional Korean goodbye and bow. She responded with the same and a wonderful smile. Both my son and grandson, who regularly eats homemade Korean food, proclaimed Norfolk Garden the best Korean food in the area. We've put the restaurant on the list of spots where we'll dine every time they're in town. The restaurant is on the west side of N. Military Highway not too far north of the I-264 overpass. The parking lot and entrance faces north rather than towards N. Military Highway. So it looks rather dark from the highway itself. Hours are until 10pm on weekdays and 10:30pm on weekends. Norfolk Garden is a Coastal Virginia treasure. Beyond a doubt they serve the best traditional Korean food in the area.

    This place is an absolute gem! We are regulars here and have brought many friends because the food…read moreis a dream--so authentic, traditional, and genuinely prepared and hosted by an amazing Thai staff. It really sets it apart in this area. We truly love it here. The environment is fantastic, with a cozy, classical Asian-style decor and beautiful tableware that makes the meal feel special. However, I have to be honest about a recent experience, which makes me sad to only give 3 stars instead of 5. We know the auntie is super busy and works hard, and we usually embrace the casual, "homey" vibe where you might need to help yourself a bit. But during our last visit, her attitude was quite unpleasant when we simply ordered a few smaller soup dishes to share so we could try more variety (since the main dishes are pretty large/expensive). She made us feel like we were an inconvenience for not ordering larger portions and for asking for extra plates to share. We weren't trying to "cheap out," we just wanted to enjoy a wider culinary experience without wasting food. We love the food, but the awkward interaction left a sour taste at the end. Despite that, we will probably be back for DoorDash not inperson because the food is just that good. Just be prepared for a possible attitude check with your order.

I will say that I have been to multiple locations, this one was the lowest in quality. The Buffett bar wasn't labeled correctly in the sauces area, and the hot items available were not good. Fries??? My coworker nd I were just talking about how good the chicken is usually at kpot but not this location. Service was horrible, the server was trying to be friendly which is great, but there was like 3 people in the place, and I am sure that the other person eating was a worker on their break. So it shouldn't have taken very long to get drinks and to service us, I ended up having to get everything myself, all utensils, soup ladles, extra plates. There was only 3 people in the building eating there should be no reason for us not to be checked on, or sodas refilled. The server that brought our food out, practically threw the food on the table, we were trying to make space for everything and he was holding a bowl of rice and I guess we took to long and he pretty much slammed it on the table and walked away, and we told the server this and he said that he was made about something, which is not an excuse for this to have happened! Fried rice was horrible! White rice seemed to have been served awhile ago and it was hard on top. Everyone in the building wasn't paying attention to anything, I waited for 10 mins to my bill checked out at my table, I went to the restroom which is another story! And my bill and card still hadn't been picked up from the table, I told my friend let's go and walked to the front thinking someone would finally come but no, they didn't I stood there looking for someone, could've walked right out and they wouldn't have noticed us gone. But I am not that kind of person, and I stood there waiting for my bill to be rung up. Bathroom had no soap! How are employees washing their hands! All the utensils pilled up, 90% of them looked like they needed to be rewashed, and there was a mildew smell coming from that area, take it all down and clean it! I love KPOT, and haven't had an experience like this at any other location, I hope this helps this location take a look at the details!
