Their consistently tasty dishes have helped keep me and my family as regulars.

The restaurant is always clean and well taken care of making for a warm and inviting dining experience. This is my first review of Koji but we have been over a dozen times since the name has changed. We will continue to visit and enjoy their food.

Our daughter is obsessed with the beef tartare and sashimi combo, she orders it every time. We usually stick with the filet hibachi and fried rice, and it's consistently really good. The chicken is good too if that's more your style. Everything is seasoned so well without being overpowering, and the sauces are honestly spot on (which makes more of a difference than people think). Even the salad dressing is yummy. It's one of those places that just always hits the mark, especially when we order delivery and add salads for a small up charge ("free"soup and salad is only for dine-in) and it somehow still tastes fresh and put together. Definitely a go-to and highly recommended.

Saturday lunch found us at the newly opened F&F right down the street from us…read more Super simple fast-serve hibachi concept. You can order combinations as you like, including a bunch of pre-created entrees. The breadth of options is pretty good ranging from a chirashi sushi bowl; bibim bop bowls; galbi; shrimp and chicken. It's like a street vendor feel in a small restaurant space. It's a smaller place and the 5-6 tables. There's also high top seating around the glass to add a few more chairs. But the spaces filled up quick during lunch and I can see it being a bit crazy at peak times. One treasure I found was a side order of Kimchee ($1.49) to add with your meal and I will tell you I'd go back just for that. My entree was the Bibim Bop for $12; wife got the chicken and shrimp for $15 and my daughter got the poke bowl for $13. We also got some gyoza dumplings (4) for $2.49. Side of white rice and a fountain drink go for $2 each. They also give you the two sauces with the meal just like the full-service hibachi places. The Bibim seems to be a little lacking in the protein. Could have used a little more bulgogi in there I thought instead of being overloaded with other items. My daughter's bowl, the fish, seemed to be clean and tasty albeit a very simplified version. My wife's was the biggest disappointment of the day as the chicken was dry, which isn't surprising since chicken always seems to be hard for hibachi to be tender. Shrimp were good, with tail on. I thought the noodles my wife ordered with it were ok as well. You can't go to this chain, quick-prep place and expect super high-end but for a quick stop and a pretty decent representation of hibachi styles it more than holds its own. It was just under $60 with tip and so I wouldn't call it a steal of a deal either. But I'd say fair value and fast service. Do yourself a favor and try that side of kimchee. Wish them luck with the new location opening!

Look, I'm a skeptical person. And so, I automatically think that a place with rave reviews spanning…read moreover a decade can't truly still be all that. Well, I'm here to tell you: it really is. It truly is all that. I read somewhere else that Keiichi truly shines with their appetizers, and I must concur. We ordered four apps, but our absolute favorites were: - Beef and Jalapeño Cream Cheese Roll: Please do not be deterred by the cream cheese. It was tastefully added and wasn't overwhelming at all. Also, that beef? DIVINE. -Marinated Tuna with Fresh Guacamole: An unlikely combination that constantly proves it deserves to be put together. Each bite was a flavor bomb in your mouth. We also got the Tasmanian Sea Trout and the Baby Yellowtail Carpaccio. They were very good, but nothing you can't have at another fancy sushi restaurant. We ordered three nigiris: * Squid * Scallop * Eel All very good, but again, nothing you can't have at another fancy sushi restaurant with quality fish. We didn't order classics like salmon and yellowtail because we'd already had them in our appetizers. The beef miso soup was also delectable. We didn't care as much for the beef by the end of the soup, so we'd probably just get the regular miso soup next time. For our entrée, we ordered the mushroom risotto to share. The risotto was definitely some of the best we've had in Dallas. Iirc, monarch has our favorite risotto. This was close to it. And I say this as someone who doesn't like mushrooms very much. Something we'd like to try next time: - Spicy Tuna Tartare Finally - dessert. We ordered a tiramisu and shared it with two strangers seated beside us. They ordered the green tea tiramisu and shared that with us. We enjoyed both variants. My wife and the other couple felt the traditional tiramisu lacked espresso, so that would be the one change they'd prefer. I found it good as is. So there you have it - that's the food. But that's only one part of the experience. The other part is snagging a reservation! I first tried securing a reservation back in October 2024 but was unsuccessful. I tried again in October 2025 and was finally able to snag a reservation for September 2026. So this dining experience was 2 years in the making! I can see why reservations sell out so quickly though. The chef can only accommodate 10 seats per seating and is only open a few days of the week. Furthermore, he has a dedicated fan following. Of which, my wife and I will proudly be a part of. Food and reservations are two parts of a three piece puzzle, though. For us, the third and final piece was the people we dined with. They were all incredibly kind, vocal, and passionate foodies. Everyone loved food and wanted to tell the others what they'd ordered and how much they enjoyed it. Because of that, a lot of us ended up ordering things the others recommended and were blown away each time. All that led to some interesting banter and very insightful and engaging conversations. I'm very happy we were able to get a reservation and were seated with such great people. I look forward to coming again, should we be lucky enough to secure a reservation in time.

Since I had driven out of my way, I moved to the other side and decided to stay. The shrimp tempura was the best part, crispy and well-fried, though only served with soy sauce. The spicy tonkotsu ramen was underwhelming with mild spice, bland broth and not very hot. The spicy mazemen was terrible, extremely salty and barely edible. I had to mix tonkotsu broth just to be able to water down the salt. Also, both of the dishes do not come with protein so you gotta add it separately. Overall, between the smell and disappointing ramen, I would not return.

We ordered a regular spicy chicken (noki-style) with noodles turned combo (plus a drink and egg roll), the regular teriyaki salmon with noodles and veggies, and of course had to throw in crab rangoons and wontons -- because balance. Everything was so good. The chicken had that perfect spicy kick, the salmon was tender and flavorful, and the noodles were pure comfort food perfection. You can tell everything's cooked fresh, not sitting under a heat lamp somewhere. The portions? Generous. The flavor? Addictive. The satisfaction level? 11/10. If you're in Denton and craving something that hits that sweet spot between fast and actually delicious, this is your sign -- go get the noodles.

This was actually my second visit, because I wanted to give them another chance after a disappointing first experience. Unfortunately, the second visit was even worse. We came with friends and family expecting a fun hibachi dinner, but from the moment we sat down we felt rushed. The staff hurried us through the entire meal instead of letting us relax and enjoy the experience. The service was poor, and the food was disappointing as well. It simply wasn't good, especially considering the price. Hibachi is supposed to be an enjoyable dining experience where you can spend time with the people you're with--not feel like you're being rushed out the door. I really wanted this second visit to change my opinion, but it did the opposite. I left more disappointed than the first time, and unfortunately I won't be returning or recommending this restaurant.
