    Normally fantastic, we were disappointed in the 15+ minute wait to order and half of our food was too salty to eat.

    Good food- both ramen and steamed buns! Service was not the best, slow to be acknowledge and to order and also to pay our check and refill the water glasses. Overall enjoyed the vibe

    The place was super cute, the first server we had was nice, but he went home for the night,we got another one that just left the food in the table and disappeared, drinks were empty and food was to bland so we had to wait to get he's attention to ask for sirasha and refillour drinks. We won't be returning to the restaurant.

    This was my second time at Clever Koi and it is now on my list of favorites! It’s hard to find both really good drink and food but this is the spot! Friendly staff, great ambiance. Still thinking about the short rib dumplings!

    Love the new changes to the Ramen!! And the flavor was wonderful! The spice bomb wasn’t actually spicy but gave the ramen great flavor, for once the chicken wasn’t too hard. Loved it!

    Always a great food experience! All the flavors are spot on and complex. It’s always busy in here, but I don’t like it when I have to remind the waiter that we ordered something and they forgot to put it in. And I’d like it if they would drop by with more water without me asking. we had to ask for a check after sitting there for quite a while. these are minor issues I know, but the service wasn’t as great as I would have expected, given the price of our meal.
