Stopped by on our way to Chicago. Our waitress was inattentive and sushi was lackluster with the rice being dry. The shrimp fried rice and crab Rangoon was pretty good though. The waitresses was ride taking our order repeatedly stating, ‘you’re not getting the buffet?’ To the 3 out of 4 of us that chose to order off the menu. Additionally, when asked for the check she stated ‘did you ask for the check?’. I don’t believe this was a language barrier and overall was a frustrating experience.

Awful! Freaking awful! They charged me $10 extra dollars AFTER already giving me my bill. The service was poor and rude. Teenage girls that threw the bill at my table and very impolite. They counted how much sushi I was taking home without an explanation as to why. Over priced for portion size. Why add an extra charge to take home food if it is suppose to be all you can eat? Literally the worst people and the worst way to go about a business. I will never, ever eat there again!! They don’t even deserve one star in my opinion.

The all-you-can-eat sushi is pretty amazing. You can get soup, salad, appetizer, sushi, maki rolls, special rolls, hot Hibachi or Teriyaki dishes as well as dessert. The food and service is great! They do have an upcharge for a few things like the Tuna Tataki and Sashimi but it is worth it. Go hungry because you will be so full of sushi! Love the crab rangoons and specialty rolls. There is a great selection.

It was horrible. My husband, daughter, and I went here. The server is not friendly at all, the food is horrible, and charged us so expensive. I would never go back to this restaurant at all. Never recommend this to my friends.

The place was clean and the staff was very nice - but maybe we ordered the wrong food. The appetizers of vegetable and shrimp tempura and gyoza were very good. My wife ordered beef teriyaki and I had chicken teriyaki and it looked and tasted unlike any teriyaki that we have ever had. There were onions in the teriyaki and no teriyaki sauce at all. The beef teriyaki was little cubes and the chicken was very narrow strips. Both dishes had no flavor at all. The miso was cold and no taste. The hot tea was not hot and tasted like tepid tap water. The restaurant was aware that we were not happy with our entrees and removed some of the charges from our bill, but we just wanted some decent teriyaki!

Sushi was phenomenal. A bit on the pricy end but they offer a buffet which is a must for obvious reasons

Service not the best but food is good

We’ve our worst food experience in the town.We’ve tried all of their appetizers - below average taste, less portion size. We also have tried the noodles - tasteless, too much oily stuff. In short, horrible food! Never ever going back there!Surprisingly, the service was comparatively better. The lady was very polite and responsive. But when the food is not up to the mark, you can’t hide it with a good service.

Food was ok. Service was awful, we waited for two hours and every time the waitress delivered something, it was thrown to us. They got upset with our table and our sushis we're the last ones to be prepared. If you go, you need a lot of patience and I will suggest to order a lot to begin with and be mindful that orders are very very small!

Kochi has the best sushi bar in town, not to mention that the lunch special is only $14.99 for all you can eat, including the sushi!

Great lunch experience! Chef was very knowledgable. Jenny, the owner and sushi chef came out to chat with us and gave us recommendations. Almond, the server, was sweet and treat us with respect. Place was clean and comfortable. Will come back and you too should.

Good sushi selection. Our waitress could use more person skills. It was good. If I'm in Normal and get a sushi craving, maybe I'll visit again.

Asked for 2piece of salmon sashimi but she gave me four pieces. On top of that I asked for eel avocado hand roll and she made me one eel and one avocado. I clearly said eel avocado. She didn't even apologize, all she said is we don't have eel avocado??? So do something about it and not just stare at me like I'm suppose to do something about it. You made mistake twice and charged me way too much for everything.
