Review Koto Japanese Restaurant & Bar - Houston

My go-to sushi place. Underrated but surprisingly high quality and delicious! Sushi is always fresh and I love how good seasoning their sushi rice; it perfectly compliments fish.

I come to this restaurant couple of times a year, and every time I am here I have very good experience. The quality of their sashimi is not really worth the 4 star, but with the price and portion it is not bad. Cozy environment, staff is always very nice and attentive, food came our pretty fast, usually doesn't have to wait for long. Their kitchen food is definitely a 5 star level. Seaweed salad is always very fresh. Ika Teriyaki is super yummy, I like the chewy texture of the squid. Fried octopus tail is excellent , the batter is fresh and crispy, just perfection. Baked mussel is definitely inexpensive and tasty. We ordered the sashimi boat, the presentation is impressive, 7 different kinds of sashimi, 3 pieces each kind plus a sushi roll you can choose from the roll session, value less than $13. For $38 of this sashimi package, it is definitely a good deal. The desert is also the best part other than the appetizer, we ordered banana tempura with ice cream, fried just to the right temperature. Fried ice cream tempura with green tea ice cream is worth order as well. And last the fried cheese cake my friend couldn't share with us. Definitely worth coming if you are looking for great price, good portion Japanese food. Will come back.

Alway fresh and always delicious. I am wondering why it is so empty every time I come. The waitress is extremely friendly and helpful, professional service and always on point. Huge menu, variety of choices. This place need to be spread out to be supported by local.

I was looking for Genji on Westheimer and was taken to the wrong address by the GPS. I made a turn into a parking lot and saw this little Japanese Gem. I was greeted by Apple who is very nice and friendly. The atmosphere is great and the staff is great. Denny, the sushi chef was extremely nice and we conversated a bit. Since Covid, I really hadn’t stopped to talk long enough to other people. I enjoyed my time here and will return. I can’t believe I never heard or saw this place before for sushi. Aside from the friendly staff, the food is good.

Driving near Westheimer and the Beltway looking for some Japanese food and stumbled on this gem of a restaurant. From the hot tea and miso soup to a wide variety of sushi rolls, everything we had was great. Seemed like a local spot where the staff recognized several of the guests. Prices were very reasonable. Six piece Tuna or Salmon rolls ( as seen in the photo ) were $2.50 each. The whole platter in the photo was $11.50. Bowl of miso soup was $1.50.

I bounce around different sushi places because quality has quality is not consistent, quality has gone down, or it is simply too expensive for regular visits. Koto is near my place and offers great consistent taste for a very reasonable price. I choose this place to regularly go whenever me and my wife crave sushi.

Solid place for sushi. I have frequented this place for the past couple of years and they have yet to disappoint. The lunch specials are really good and everything always tastes fresh. Staff is friendly and service is good

Wonderful service and great safe sushi. Waiters are extremely good and timely and meet your every need, if that's your thing. I just like the over the top service. The Shrimp Teriyaki is delicious and the spice tuna roll is a firecracker in your mouth that burst with flavors like a unsuspecting surprise on your tongue. The drinks compliment the food across the board.

New to the area and found this place looking to try new spots. Nice laid back place. The food was well above average with excellent prices and a huge menu. I can see me being a regular customer.

Amazing place! This is a little hidden gem I discovered from a neighbor but the sushi is great in the customer service is too. Great for small gatherings with friends and family.

Quality is ok, but definitely reasonable and delicious and not to mention a great BANG for your buck if you come during lunch. The servers are super friendly and informative.

The sushi was good, and the service was fast. They have a large lunch menu with specials that come with miso soup for decent prices. Will be going back. <br/>

Great bargain. Great sushi for the price. They don't have the more esoteric and specialized itmes, but what they do have is fresh and well-prepared.
