Found this hidden gem near Bryant Park! We didn’t have a reservation, but they were able to seat us no problem. Ambiance is lovely! A perfect date-night restaurant. Price was a bit steep, which was expected. Sashimi was excellent! Skirt steak was delicious! However, the mochi wasn’t the freshest. It was rock solid. I have to say, though, the service was A+…..friendly, attentive, and quick!

Great experience here at Koi NYC. The ambience is relaxing, wonderful interior, spectacular service, and delicious food. Lovely spot for a night out, work dinner, etc.
Now for my standard COVID comments as of September 2022. Indoor seating is comfortable and some folks are still wearing masks. Definitely felt fine eating and enjoyed my experience.

Excellent food, might seem a little steep but the high quality of food makes it acceptable. The sides are particularly good, I had the green beans and the potato purée, both really really good, especially the purée (am being French I know all the work that goes into a tasty purée). They also have dishes to share, a good concept when you are several people.
Special mention for the lychee mocktail they made me. The best mocktail I had in a long time. I will be back!

This place is super busy! And for good reason. The atmosphere is nice and classy, with moody lighting, a darker color palette overall and interesting interior design elements. Since it is a Japanese restaurant, of course I had to give the sushi a try. Their special rolls were indeed so special, very fresh and even despite one of the rolls having truffle as an ingredient, it wasn’t too overdone and all the flavors went well together. The lamb chops were sublime and cooked to perfection, and the mash too was also so good. Everything was seasoned just right, not too salty, or too sweet, just perfect. We did also order the mochi ice cream for desert (no pictured) and i would definitely recommend the lychee and passionfruit, nice bright flavors to round out a good meal. Would recommend if you’re looking for a treat.

This place is so phenomenal. I loved the decorations inside and I was lucky enough to get my entire group into a booth seating that overlooked the view of the park and had access to the bar as well. The waitress was really attentive but I could tell that she was really busy and the entire place was really popping for the whole night. I think the decorations are really what made it but the food was really good and I highly recommend the blue crab California roll. The dessert was phenomenal as well as we got the chocolate lava cake and the mochi ice cream but the mochi ice cream could’ve been from Trader Joe’s or some thing so next time I go I’ll try a different kind of homemade dessert. Overall I had such a good time and it was a great location and all of my group members had a blast.

I went here on a whim Sunday night after visiting the summit and this place was exceptional. The service was so attentive and kind. I felt very relaxed from the ambience and enjoyed every bite. I will be coming back for more! Highly recommend for a good date spot!

Extremely cute restaurant in the Bryant Park Hotel. The decor inside was gorgeous. The ambience of this place seemed very business casual. The rolls were absolutely delicious and I would rate the cocktails 8/10. would return for the Dragon roll. ????

Everything was fresh. Uni was sweet. Love the fish taco, rock shrimp tempura, edamame mushroom dumpling, toro roll, salmon truffle roll, crispy rice avo truffle and yellowtail nigiri.

My friend and I went to koi to celebrate his birthday. Service was immaculate and we felt welcomed from the moment we entered the restaurant until we left. Yaya (the manager) checked on us several times and was very friendly, attentive and hospitable. Gabriella was such a great server we definitely recommend her if you dine with them. Great food, drinks, service and atmosphere.

This is nice upscale restaurant with funky sushi rolls. I liked the atmosphere and the vibe. It’s definitely a nice date spot. I think the food was a little pricier than it should’ve been but the quality of the sushi was good.
