" Koto is a fantastic place to eat! The chefs put on a great show and the food is always fresh and flavorful. My favorite has to be the scallops; they were cooked to perfection. The atmosphere is lively, making it a great place for gatherings, though service can lag a bit depending on the crowd. Highly recommended! " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing great things, I finally visited Koto and it lived up to the hype! The food was impressive – I had tuna sashimi and it was incredibly fresh. The environment was pleasant, and the staff was welcoming. I will return soon, hopefully to enjoy the hibachi next time around. Five stars from me! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently visited Koto for a birthday celebration and it was amazing! The hibachi cook was entertaining and engaging, and the food was cooked to perfection. The portions were generous and the flavors were spot on. I especially loved the steak hibachi with fried rice. The atmosphere was vibrant and welcoming; it's truly a gem in Jackson. I can't wait to come back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" While my first experience at Koto was very good, my recent visit left much to be desired. The food was still tasty, but we encountered some delays that impacted our overall enjoyment. The service seemed overwhelmed that night. Nonetheless, I would give it another chance on a less busy night! " (*Curated Review*)

" Hadn't been to Koto in a while, but it didn't disappoint! The hibachi was delicious and the portions generous.

" Had a great dining experience here! The sushi was fantastic, and the hibachi chef was quite the entertainer. I appreciated that they offer both fried rice and noodles; it's a nice touch. However, the service could have been a bit more attentive. Still, I'd recommend Koto for a fun night out! " (*Curated Review*)

" I love the vibe at Koto! It’s perfect for a fun night out. The staff is generally warm and inviting, and the food is always fresh. My only issue has been some inconsistency in service speed during busy nights. That said, the hibachi show never fails to impress, and the prices are reasonable too. " (*Curated Review*)
