What Aaron Mayr-Mauhart doesn't like about KOKO Japanese Restaurant:
Well food was an unknown for us. I was eating out with my other half. We arrived at 7:30 and were told that they weren't taking orders anymore. There sign outside said they closed at 8:30.Maybe they should update their google information and sign outside if being a hour before close you're not going to be served.The place was messy and not ready to take us anyways. Maybe under staffed? I hope they can find solutions... View all feedback. What User likes about KOKO Japanese Restaurant:

Koko, a hidden gem run by a Japanese family, offers a mix of reviews. While some criticize the service and ramen quality, others rave about the outstanding food and friendly staff, calling it a go-to spot downtown. The Ma-bo ramen stands out for its spice level, while the sushi rolls are fresh and expertly prepared. The husband and wife owners serve up authentic Japanese cuisine with care. Despite some mixed experiences, Koko promises the potential for fantastic dishes and an overall delightful dining experience.

The Sashimi Platter was nothing like the image. It was just fish slices, no rice. The Philly Rolls and Ramen were as expepected and decent.
