Teriyaki Chicken
Kelly M.

Visited Koji last night and had a great time. The restaurant was busy and the service was prompt and friendly. I am not a sushi fan which is their specialty but I still enjoyed many things on the menu such as green salad, dumplings and chicken teriyaki. Everything tasted great, I would recommend this restaurant!

We were seated at a booth. Only a few tables full when we arrived. We ordered the Koji crunch roll, grilled scallop, volcano roll, bibimbap with chicken, extra miso, two ginger salads. $66.50 The miso soup is good, lots of tofu and seaweed in it. The ginger dressing is super sweet with lots of pulverized carrot bits. It's ok. My salad had the iceberg lettuce bottom clump in it. The scallop and the Koji crunch roll are both good. The Volcano roll is okay. The bibimbap was so-so, a lot of rice, rehydrated shiitake slices, not much veggies. The egg is just the yolk, so odd, no whites to the egg at all. Where did the egg whites go? They said they just throw out the whites that the eggs. That's odd. Service is good.

I was craving Japanese food and found this place. I didn't realize it was downtown Northville, but I was happy there is a parking lot close by. I got there around 11:35 am when they opened so my friend and were seated right away. This place is much smaller than I thought. There are 6-7 booths and then tables in the middle. Ye bathrooms are in the back. It has a cozy vibe. I got the sushi combo (spicy tuna and spicy California roll) and the Michigan Roll. It came with miso soup and salad. I enjoyed my sushi! We also got chocolate chip ice cream afterwards - which was a nice treat/surprise. Food and service were great!

Stopped by for lunch with the family. After reviewing the menu, we went with: - shrimp tempura & veggies - sushi lunch - Udon & Sushi lunch - Spider roll - Eel & Avocado - Spicy Tuna - Green Dragon - Tempura California - Salmon, Tuna, White Tuna & Yellowtail sashimi The rolls were decent, comparable to all other Japanese's restaurants in town. I like my sushi rice on the vinegary side.... and here they use very minimal as you can't taste the vinegar in the sushi rice. One thing they won me over was the sashimi. They cut their fish thick, which is rare. All other places I've been too, they like to cut their fish real thin, but not here. That was a big surprise, that added extra star to the review. Their shrimp tempura was 0 out of 5 stars. It needs major work. It came out all soggy, no crunch aspect to any of the tempura that was served unfortunately. That knocked off a star from the review. The service was good. Waster got filled without asking. Interior is small, reminded me of a Mexican restaurant, not sure if it was former Mexican joint before it became a Japanese joint, that's the vibe I kept getting. The chairs/tables seemed like leftover from the old restaurant.

Salsa roll and green dragon roll
Jill H.

Each time we've come here it's been fantastic. Salsa roll and green dragon are our favorite rolls. The miso soup is really good here, and the nigiri rolls are also very generous portions. Service is prompt, it was very busy on a Friday evening so the were trying to turn tables over pretty quickly.

Love Koji! It's been a family favorite for years. The sushi is always fresh and delicious, and their beef teriyaki is a must-try too!

Service was great. We called to ask for a last minute reservation for a party of 9 and they were very accommodating. Food was pretty good too.

One of my staple sushi spots for the price and quality. Service is nice and efficient. Gets quite busy during dinner time so expect to wait on Fridays and saturdays.

Ketan S.

Downtown Northville! We went here in Friday night. Place was not busy probably because it was past 9pm. Service was fast and decor was cozy. They have a large wooden models on display in the hotel which I found very kool. It was just my son and me and we ordered 3 sushi's about 8-10 pieces in each order. All were good! Koji Maki, Dynamite Roll & Volcano Roll

Spicy Tuna Roll California Roll Dragon Roll Edamame

Your typical small sushi spot in ambiance. Sushi rolls were sub-par, lacking texture and flavor. There were many little annoyances including but not limited to: - The straws were too short for the cups - Waitstaff didn't check in during the meal - Waiter took water directly out of my hand mid sip to refill - Random free edamame was nice but we don't like it, so it was wasted - Asked us to hurry - after waiting 45 minutes to be seated - that they had a lot of people waiting to be seated after only being there an hour. (There was no one waiting when we left) Overall, not impressed, would not return but not the worst experience I've ever had.

Spicy Tuna Roll, shrimp tempura, yellowtail tuna,
Ranyia T.

The place is very busy and tight squeeze between tables but the seats are comfortable. The staff is always running around and get everything done asap. Ordered a few sushi rolls and a miso soup. The miso soup is has great flavor. Had the yellowtail tuna roll, shrimp tempura, California roll. The rolls were good the ginger had a light flavor.

Service is always fast and friendly. Dining area is normally pretty busy and lively. Seating is tight but will accommodate small and large groups. Might have to wait a bit to get a seat. Sushi is a little pricey but not much more than places outside Northville.

Miso soup
Minu A.

This place can get busy so expect to wait as I experienced longer wait times than usual. The service was good. Situated in downtown northville so it's a nice location - you can walk around after. Miso soup was good. I got the rainbow roll that I really liked. My brother got the Las Vegas roll and it was not my favorite but I just don't like cream cheese in sushi but my brother liked it. I would come here again or get take out if I am considering time

I really wanted to make this one of my go to sushi spots but unfortunately I don't think I will…read more The daily specials are a nice touch and a great deal, but the sushi itself just is very mediocre. I got the firecracker (pretty good), red wing (not bad but kind of...missing something?), the shrimp tempura (can't really go wrong, pretty basic but I wish I knew there were only 5 pieces instead of 8) and the salmon on the beach (good but somehow not every piece tasted the same.) I don't think I'll be back, but the server was very nice and food was ready relatively quickly. I just think this isn't the place for me.

I have seen other Yelp reviews on this place and all were good so I have been wanting to try it…read more While on the outside it looks just like all the other store front sushi places with some booths and tables along with the open sushi kitchen, the food and service is what makes it well above average. I ordered shrimp lovers sushi and it was some of the best I have ever had. Tightly rolled so you could be using chopsticks and still eat each piece in 2 bites. I told half home and it was just the same the next day. You can taste the quality ingredients. They have fountain Coke products which was worth that extra star to take it to 5 stars. The service was friendly and quick. Since my way home from work takes me near 3 evenings a week, I will be back. I took a menu to keep in my car. Just north of 6 Mile on the right side of Haggerty with good parking.

Seeing the menu items reminded me of one of my favorite Izakayas in Gifu and I know next time I'm in town I'll need to come back and try some of the other items. We had the fried crab as well which was delicious and a beer with the meal in a freezing glass and it made me oh so happy!

My experience at this restaurant was extremely disappointing…read more We arrived with our trained service dog, which is permitted under ADA regulations. Instead of politely asking questions or discussing the situation with us, the sushi chef loudly shouted "No!" across the restaurant and demanded that we leave. The interaction was embarrassing, unprofessional, and made us feel unwelcome in front of other customers. I understand that businesses may have questions regarding service animals, but there are respectful and lawful ways to handle those situations. Unfortunately, this was not one of them. Whether or not the restaurant was familiar with ADA requirements, the lack of courtesy and professionalism was unacceptable. I would not recommend this restaurant based on how we were treated.

I've been going to this sit-down (and now takeout) sushi eatery x international market since I was…read morea kid, and it honestly never disappoints. Ambiance has always stayed the same: cute, cozy, and so comfortable. Now that the booths were removed and they only have regular table seating, service is a bit different (you order at the front or at the kiosk instead of someone taking your order), but I actually love how it all works! From an operational standpoint, I feel like it actually makes things go smoother and faster. Additionally, I don't know if it's just because I haven't had their sushi in a bit, but I felt like their portion sizes actually increased slightly (which is always amazing)!! Love love LOVEEE their sushi and hearty miso soup so much. Great selection of drinks from the fridge inside, and so many vegetables, fish, snacks, and essentials (e.g., hair care, toothpaste).

The premade food choices are growing by the day. They are always adding to their offerings with new flavors and tastes. I started coming to One world market in 1997 when it was first home by a husband and wife team. It was very special at that time to have a Japanese focused grocery store and I was so happy to have one in the Novi area. This has been my go-to for decades now. When it was transitioning from private ownership to the Noble Village group, owned by True World group, there was a transitional decline, thankfully, that didn't last long and things are developing very nicely. I hear even more growth is on the horizon as they establish an even greater presence in the building next door. I am also thankful that the integrity and the high-quality is very much present and everything they do. The service is always top notch and they try to open up a lot of lanes so people get through quickly because it is busier than ever. The word is definitely out. I've seen a lot of posts on social media and it's bringing in an even greater crowds, which is fantastic! Note: the on-line ordering is also so convenient and their sushi platters are high-level!

It's rumored that it's haunted to this day by its original builder & owner, Charles Rogers, and many have reported experiences of paranormal activity!

I really like how they have so many different unique rolls; I've never seen anything like the Fatty roll, and you get a perfect bite of everything with the Angry Mikey roll!

He did change our reservation time twice for us but that was the extent of my good experience here. Because of traffic, the friend meeting me was a little late so I sat alone for a little bit. I told our waitress that... she came back a little bit later saying "are you ready to order" .... My friend still hadn't come and I already told her that. The thing is, I understand forgetting so that's what I thought happened. But it became clear that her attitude was intentional. While I was sitting alone, I noticed an ant crawling on my table that I had to kill & I was seated next to some windows and there was subsequently a FLY that I also had to kill ("but you didn't have to kill it"... shut up yes I did) I also had a sushi menu that was already written on. I dont know weird. I understand the appeal of the old house converted into a nice restaurant but it still just smelled like old house and lowkey like rotting wood. The windows also were clean. I dont know it was just bad ambience until it got dark. NOW THE FOOD... The miso soup was my favorite thing on the menu. So that is saying something. My two rolls were underwhelming at best. The fish was chewy.. but a bad chewy. There was barely any fish. The cucumber kimchi was bad. The cucumbers were not good quality. It felt like they were old actually. At the end, our waitress was lowkey rushing us. I swear it was the most I had seen her all night. She set the bill down, would split it for us... she said she'd split it after we put our cards down... what does that mean??? So whatever, me and my friend just paid 50/50 on the bill. (Even tho the menu expressly said that they can't split bills for parties of more than 8). We were only two people. Whatever. Dont come here unless you're just interested in cute vibes.

Honestly, I was expecting more. I wish I would've loved it but didn't. I got the Tonkotsu with spice (didn't taste spicy at all). My hubby liked his Ton-Ton pork ramen. My friend got the Spicy Champon and it was NOT spicy at all. Not sure I'd recommend as our experience was lacking overall. At least they were great about refilling our waters and lots of free parking. I enjoyed the fresh small salad that came with our Ramen, but charging extra for the chili oil was a disappointment as my ramen really needed something extra. Better luck next time.
