We decided to drive to downtown Phoenix for a taste of something new and The Clever Koi looked like a great place. Great atmosphere from the moment you walk in. We were greeted immediately and seated. The brunch menu was basically a create your own ramen etc with a few appetizers. To be honest this isn't really what we had in mind, but decided to give it a try. I'm glad we did. The food was great. I had ramen with, shrimp, pork broth, sprouts,carrots and snow peas. We also ordered the pig face dumplings which were spicy and amazing. The reason why I'm only rating a four star is for service. Our waitress really seemed bored and uninterested. It was slow since we were there around three and felt more of a bother than a customer. A smile and a little more acknowledgement, drink refills would have made it five star fire sure,
