Everything about this place is so lovely. We went out just to have a quick dinner. Cocktails were delicious, food was exquisite, and service impeccable. 5/5 for sure! Highly reccomend.

It was my first time here last week and it was amazing. From the food, the drinks, ambiance, to the service. Everything was top notch & SO FRESH! Oh and also the music was really good! The server was very attentive & patient. I felt like trying as much as I could so I ordered a bunch of little things, two at a time! The five way shashimi was my favorite thing ordered! The night was amazing but came to a halting end at around 8:36pm on a Thursday night when they called last call. I guess they close at 9:15 and they really want everyone the heck out! I would recommend going earlier if you do not want to be rushed! The restaurant had about 30 people in there, people still eating but I guess that’s their protocol- a bit weird but food was great!

Great sushi, excellent selection of fresh fish, and they even have real wasabi if you order fatty tuna. Highly recommended if you're a sushi snob.

Awesome sushi! Great service! The best COVID precautions I have seen so far. We will be back whenever possible- not from the area but wish we were. Katrina was our server and was super sweet and helped us find the best dishes during our visit.

The food was beyond delicious and the service was impeccable. Shout out to Chen, a new waiter that took our very complicated order and got every detail 100% correct! Can't wait to return.

I've lived here for less than a month and had Koku 3 times. Yes, it's that good. Excellent gluten-free options. Excellent everything options, really!

Pound for pound, one of the best restaurants in Westchester and the city. Great food, especially the gyoza, salads, sushi and Interestingly the steak. And see definitely the cocktails. Even better service. Everyone makes my family and me feel super welcome. Eating here is always a highlight of the week. Highly recommended!

Went here last night with my wife. The restaurant was very busy and we did not have a reservation. They happily accommodated us, but we would have gladly sat at the bar had there not been seats at a table. The service was very nice and the food arrived in a timely manner. My wife got some sashimi and a few rolls, I ordered chirashi. Cuts of fish are more than generous and really excellent quality. We shared 2 appetizers before the sushi. We had a nice time and didn't feel rushed in the slightest, even though there was a line of people waiting to be seated. Eager to come back again, it was a very pleasant experience.

Our first experience at Koku a few months ago was fantastic. Since then we have been back several times. My wife and I love to dine out and we have sampled just about every decent restaurant within 50 miles. YOU CAN NOT GO WRONG AT KOKU! Th food is incredibly delicious and presented beautifully. The sushi is so fresh that you are waiting for it to swim off of the plate! The service is also amazing. You will want for nothing. The room itself has a beautiful ambiance and the music is carefully considered to enhance your dining experience. Last but not least, the bathrooms are impeccably maintained. A clean bathroom clearly lends itself to the notion that the kitchen is also clean. Every thing about this place begs you to come back. Say hello to the owner, Eric! Tell him Montgomery and Connie sent you! Enjoy!

Sushi was excellent with a small caveat. There was a small piece of wrap they use to roll the rolls left attached to my sushi... No big deal, I didn't eat it (I hope) and just pulled it off what I had seen. It happens. Otherwise the sushi was very good! Service was good as well, there when you needed it but no overwhelming. Will return soon!

Absolutely heavenly sushi. So fresh and delicious. You can tell the fish is extremely high quality. I've eaten here twice and I'm such a huge fan now. This place deserves definite accolades.

Today (1/9/21) was my 1st visit and won’t be my last. Took my mother for her birthday and it was absolutely exceptional. I love Asian food but this was tremendous. Started with the Japanese vegetable egg rolls then had the spicy lemongrass soup (ridiculously good) and topped it off with veggie curry (with tofu). So good I ordered a 2nd soup & curry to bring home. Seriously. Don’t miss Koku
