" Unfortunately, my visit was disappointing as the food lacked freshness. I ordered a California roll, but it didn't appear to be freshly made. The atmosphere of the restaurant was clean and inviting, but that wasn't enough to cover up the food's shortcomings. I hope they can improve soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't believe how bad my experience was. The rice in my sushi was plain white rice; it lacked the vinegar flavor typically associated with sushi rice. The typhoon of flavors in the rest of the meal didn’t do enough to cover up for the huge deficit in flavor throughout. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone looking for real Japanese cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" Koiya offered me a pleasant experience, though not without its flaws. While the sushi was decent, the chicken teriyaki was a tad too salty for my liking, and the staff seemed overwhelmed during peak hours. Still, it was a cozy environment overall, and I may return in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" I thoroughly enjoyed my meal here! The hibachi shrimp was delicious, and the fried rice hit the spot. The service was friendly throughout, and while the menu might not offer ultra-authentic options, it's a good compromise for those craving Asian flavors. I would definitely recommend. I'll be back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" My visit to Koiya was memorable for all the wrong reasons. I found their shrimp dish heavily salted, and it felt as if they lacked the essence of Japanese cuisine. On the flip side, they had efficient service and a beautiful setting, but the food really let them down. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently went to Koiya with high hopes but left feeling underwhelmed. The decor was nice, but the sushi had an unpleasant texture, and I suspect it was made several hours prior. The chicken was overcooked and flavorless. The lackluster quality overshadowed what could have been a pleasant dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" A great spot for a quick meal! The fried rice was flavorful, and I particularly enjoyed the sweet tea. The restaurant is clean and inviting. My only issue was that the food seemed somewhat pre-prepared rather than cooked to order. However, it was an overall enjoyable experience. " (*Curated Review*)
