Koya

This is one of my favorite sushi spots in HP/Highwood, and I was excited to stop back here on my visit! It's easy to walk-in or do a takeout order. Very classic sushi restaurant vibe and the staff is always kind and quick.The sushi and food here is always fresh when I visit, plus I love that miso soup is included in your order. We shared the Gyoza as an appetizer and they were tasty with a flavorful dipping sauce. The bottom was fried nice and crispy. The Spicy Salmon roll was delicious and fresh. I felt very full after this meal! The price is right and we're always in and out quick.

We ordered some sushi rolls for pick up. It was ready for us in 20 minutes and when I arrived, everything was packed up for me. We ordered gyoza, gomae, golden shrimp, and some rolls -- dragon, highland, sunset, Philly and futo. The rolls tasted fresh, nice portions for the order. I should have ordered different varieties or sashimi (that's on me). The golden shrimp was ok -- I've had it elsewhere where the shrimp are more succulent with a generous portion on sauce.This is always a quick and tasty option when we crave sushi and don't want to go out. Although eating in the restaurant is a pretty good choice too. The staff are always super nice and accommodating.

Let's get the positives out of the way: the sushi is very fresh and the staff hustles. Now, for the rest: the sushi/sashimi entree was only adequately sized for the price ($26). The sashimi appetizer is tiny for the price ($15). The gyoza appetizer was dry, and the tempura appetizer was small. The beef teriyaki was way too salty and the service alternated between non-existent and gruff (yanking menus out of our hands). Disappointing.

Excellent excellent excellent. I just wish they had good sound and played my Music. Best fish in the entire Midwest. Service is excellent. Sake and whiskey excellent. I could eat here everyday. Go here everyone has to eat here and know what the real deal is.

Went there tonight with a party of 9. It was excellent service!! Food was out quick and and fresh. Servers were very nice and made the experience worth while! Will definitely be back!

My favorite sushi place in Highland Park! Always fresh. Great sushi choices and specials and exceptional service!The Bento Boxes are a great value and way to get variety in one order.

This restaurant is excellent. They continue to impress us. We've been maybe 10 times now, and every time, everything is delicious. Sushi is extremely fresh, rice is properly cooked, and the menu has other Japanese options like teriyaki and Udon - all tasty. This is a local mom and pop place, so they get to know the customers and are so friendly. Lastly, the takeout is just as good as in the restaurant. They package things well, and because the food is so fresh, it travels well.

We came here friday after thanksgiving The resto was able to accommodate our party of 10. We enjoyed the miso souo, agedashi tofu, tempura, and multiple sushi dishes including the green and red specials. Only thing is the menu should specify the broth in agaedashintofu was beef broth and miso was fish broth. Service great

We have been going there for years - consistently delicious food, outstanding staff, welcoming atmosphere- Grace, the owner, personally welcomes each guest with "Hello" as well as "bye and thank you for coming". This restaurant is a hidden gem in a little strip mall.

Would not go again. Chicken in bento box and beef strips in udon soup were both tough as leather. Waitress was surly, too. Also, there was a worker standing right next to our table most of the time as if waiting to help(?) but it's poor management that is responsible for training them to make customers feel welcome and well taken care of. I personally don't need much but almost standing on top of guests is very strange so that's a no for me. Bottom line, if the food was really good I would care less about the demeanor of the wait staff but in the absence of that it was a miss all the way around.
