  • It occurred to me today that I have never written a review of this place and I've been coming here semi-regularly for the last two years! Let me just say, if I could give the Clever Koi a hug, I would but my arms just aren't long enough. As an Asian American, the term "Asian fusion" tends to give me pause. But the guys who run this place know what they are doing. The food is almost always excellent or near excellent. I feel Clever Koi deserves five stars because they add new menu items with the seasons. The penchant for experimentation shows a restaurant that doesn't rest on its laurels. Of their permanent items, I like their version of "chips and guacamole" which is shrimp chips, tuna and avocado with a bit of wasabi. Their baos are also tasty, especially the soft shell crab and chicken. They are close to authentic bao. As for seasonal items, tonight I had a persimmon beet tart in a matcha puff pastry that was just out of this world. I also had black vinegar ribs that were pretty tender. For the level of creativity and sophistication, I think their prices are absolutely fair. I'm sure if they were in Chicago or New York, everything would be a lot more expensive. The icing on the cake is the hospitality. I like to bring my friend's dog to their dog-friendly patio. Then the dog got sick and was really wobbly when we went. We weren't sure if she was going to recover. One of the owners felt so bad, that he had a saucer of chicken brought out for her. And these weren't chicken scraps but nicely chopped pieces that had been cooked in lemongrass. Penny did recover and the co-owner has never forgotten about her and still occasionally brings her some chicken. ;) This is the kind of place that I would take out of town guests to. The delicious food and the modern atmosphere make this place on par with any restaurant in NY or LA. I'm such a loyal customer now that they could accidentally set my clothes on fire and I would write it off as just an off day. Not that they would ever do that!
