" An excellent dining experience at Clever Koi! The ramen had perfect noodle texture and a rich broth. I also loved the playful cocktail options. Only downside was the packed seating; it can get a little noisy, but the food makes it worth it. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a lovely dinner at Clever Koi last Friday. The ambiance is trendy and inviting. The dumplings are a must-try, but I found the ramen a bit salty for my taste. Service was decent; our waitstaff were friendly but a bit overwhelmed during peak hours. Overall, a fun place to eat! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had an exceptional lunch experience! The boba tea was refreshing, and the various dumplings were vibrant both in color and flavor. My only complaint was that the taro bao could have been a tad sweeter. Service was on point—quick and attentive! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a hidden gem! The avocado dumplings are a unique twist, and they were delicious! I ordered the yellow curry ramen, which was phenomenal. The chef knows how to create rich flavors. The service was a bit slow, but the staff was friendly, making up for it. I will definitely be back soon to explore more of the menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" Clever Koi has quickly become one of my favorite places to eat! The cocktails are creative, and the dishes are consistently excellent. The spicy ramen is a crowd-pleaser and perfect for anyone who enjoys a kick of heat. However, the bao buns could be a bit bigger for the price. Overall, great dining experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" A quaint restaurant with a modern touch! I was captivated by the decor and enjoyed my time here. The highlight of the meal was definitely the pork ramen, with a rich, layered flavor. Looking forward to trying their cocktails and other menu items on my next visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" Last week I had the chance to visit Clever Koi during happy hour. The value is fantastic! The drinks were creative and tasty. The steamed buns were fluffy and the pork belly was divine. I will definitely return for another round of their famous ramen. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, making it a great spot for gatherings. " (*Curated Review*)
