Ko Sushi

“You can choose from either green tea or red bean ice cream, although some people get lychee (in fruit form) instead.”

“Ko Sushi is a great place to grab lunch if you're on the Upper East Side and have time on your hands.”

“The miso soup was HOT and full of tasty seaweed/tofu, they do not skimp like some places I've been to.”

  1. My favorite place for a sit down sushi dinner. The service is always good and the food is reasonably priced. Waiters are always friendly and quick to serve. One of the best parts about this place is you get a free bowl of ice cream after your meal! Who can hate a place that does that. Fresh and reasonably priced sushi.

  2. The menu here is extensive. Prices are also very reasonable. I had the sushi sashimi platter and all was fresh and good.

    The service here was great. They are very attentive, even when busy. The manager even came out and offered us complimentary ice cream.

    This doesn't get 5 stars because I didn't see much that made this place so unique from other sushi places. However, I wouldn't mind coming back.

  3. Standard Japanese menu with pretty good lunch specials (unagi don with salad and soup for $10.50). Nicer-than-average ambiance. I'd come back if I was in the area and craving sushi.

  4. Decent Japanese food place, the sashimi was fresh and service was quick. I wish they would have put more salmon roe in my hand roll though… I like the amount of seating they have and the corner location was great for people watching. Nothing that wowed me or bummed me out. Our waitress was really nice, spoke Chinese and gave good suggestions.
    Would come back here for cheap convenient sushi!

  5. A few friends were in town and we were craving sushi within walking distance of my apartment, so Ko Sushi it was.

    I like sushi restaurants that not only have fresh fish, but also have an ambiance. Way too often do you see sushi restaurants in the city that are complete hole in the walls. On the other hand, many of the ones that do offer a pleasant space to dine in are too expensive. Ko Sushi has a great atmosphere with caramel wood and bamboo accents, although the construction taking place directly outside isn't the greatest. The sushi itself, like many others have said, is standard, nothing special. I ordered the classic spicy tuna and crunchy spicy salmon roll, and was satisfied but not overly so. My friend who is not a sushi lover got a teriyaki dish which was also nothing to rave about. I did enjoy the warm towels in the beginning, however, and the waitress gave us free vanilla and red bean ice cream. Red bean is most definitely an acquired taste, but what a nice touch! 🙂

    This place will always stand out to me in terms of the environment and service, but not so much the sushi. 3.5 stars

  6. Strangely colored fish. Dirty tea cup. Old ginger. Yikes at least I only paid $10 for the lunch special I guess?

  7. Quick stop for lunch or last minute date night option. We've been here even on New Years Eve for a quick bite. One of the most consistent sushi places around the area.

    Upon sitting down, we got hot fresh towel. Orders are taken quickly but if you're indecisive, not to worry, they won't rush you. I've tried almost all of the special rolls and have not been disappointed. The rolls with tempura shrimp are my favorite! Orders come out pretty quickly and are fresh. Shumai and dumplings come out with the "just made" quality. I get the hot green tea ever time, just rounds out the whole meal–free refills, btw.

    When they are pretty full on seating, they ask if you'd  sit at the sushi bar. Usually, you're rewarded with an appetizer or simple roll on the house if you chose this less-than-ideal seating. Your choice of vanilla, green tea, or red bean Ice cream is always on the house for dessert.

  8. Ordered food for delivery from Ko sushi on Seamless.  Food arrived timely (within 45 minutes).   I ordered the chicken noodles (stir fry udon, you could choose yaki soba instead) and red dragon roll.  The chicken udon was ok, it's not too oily, and the udon noodles were not overcooked (sometimes if it's overcooked, the noodles would be too soft or break into pieces).   However, it's lacking some seasonings, so overall it tasted bland.  The red dragon roll, on the other hand, was very good. So notes to self, order sushi from this place.   Also, my chicken noodle came with a salad, the salad wasn't the highlight…it came with a giant container of ginger dressing that looked like yellow mustard!  The dressing didn't taste good at all, it tasted weird with a hint of yogurt favor and zero taste of ginger (I know…very strange).  So a tip for you guys may be to order miso soup instead of the salad.
