    I ordered online for a lunch takeout, and the process was simple.

    When I arrived, I paid, and the food was brought out to me within 5 minutes. It's packaged nicely, and the lunch specials include miso soup and salad. I typically don't like the ginger dressing for salads at Japanese restaurants, but I really liked this one!

    I got the 3 roll maki, and it was VERY filling. The pieces of fish were large, and delicious. All under $12!

    Will be coming back if I stay near the airport again.

    Good deals on Mon, Tues and Thurs nights. Specialty rolls are discounted.

    I order takeout from here all the time. The rolls are delicious. Service is good.

    I took a chance on a sushi place near the airport. Turned out to be a good choice! Fresh fish and rather large pieces of sushi/sashimi.

    The service was quick and did not disappoint.

    So I'm a bit indifferent on Koi. Heard a lot of great things but once I got there I was a bit underwhelmed. I had some Crab Rangoons and a Bento Box that consisted of some 2 types of Sushi I had (4 pieces for each type), some postickers, shrimp shumai, and some fried rice.   Everything was pretty good except the Sushi in my eyes. The Sushi wasn't bad but it wasn't great. The sushi was so small with the Bento Box. I get it's 4 pieces each but they were so small. I went with a group of people and one of my buddies just got sushi and it seemed like an ok size but he also said he had better. Again it wasn't bad but it wasn't great. Maybe it's because we went later towards the day and in an hour or 2 they were going to close.  

    Overall a pretty decent experience but it could of been a better. Maybe I'll come back sometime because I know I have another friend that's wanted to try this place and if I have a better experience with just their Sushi and not a Bento Box I'll change this.

    For now I'll just say from my experience, if you are around the airport area or just want Sushi with reasonable pricing this is the place to go. Not the greatest sushi I've had but the Bento Box and their Sushi prices were very friendly on the wallet.
