My husband just told me I need to update my review for KO as I, literally, go to KO once a week for lunch!! I have also Postmates ordered it for dinner here and there.
I nicknamed KO, Knockout sushi, because it is exactly what I want from a to go sushi place (no tables inside). Quick. Cheap. Simple. Friendly.
I have gone through rounds of my go to roll. First it was the Hiro Roll. Then Perfect Match was my roll of choice. Next, it was Dragon. Currently, my roll of choice is spicy tuna. The chef mixes some sauce in so it's a bit different than the typical tuna roll with spicy mayo on top. Usually I get a small edamame with it or a mini salad with ginger. I have also tried the salmon and tuna shashimi and it always tastes so fresh.
Service is what puts KO over the top. The same lady is always behind the counter. Despite there being 15 people in the small restaurant waiting on orders and the phone ringing, she always remembers that I don't like cucumber and I don't need soy sauce. That's service.
KO, I'll be back....in a few days!
Pro Tip- Any order over $7 gets a free drink
Pro Pro tip- For the Mon-Fri Uptown worker crowd, go at 11 am or 2 pm or plan on waiting 20-30 minutes....or call ahead!
