“ This is a go-to! We have visited Koishii a number of times, and every single time, the food is fantastic with an extensive menu, along with the staff being ever so wonderful! It is super affordable for the quality of food you're receiving, freshly prepared, and tasty! The restaurant has quite interesting decor, and often when we are sat to eat, it is extraordinarily quiet (A busy takeaway, though), which is awfully surprising with this being overall, a great restaurant! It's a highly recommended spot. It ticks all the boxes, to name a few, fresh, fast, and fantastic staff! ”
“ I've been dining here every weekend for the last 2 months and the food has been amazing every time. Freshly made food, friendly staff and good service. A nice spot to relax and have a leisurely lunch. Good quality and good value for money compared to other sushi places. The Ike Age (crispy squid) in particular is the best I've ever had. ”

“ Came here on a quiet Thursday night so the restaurant was pretty quiet but had a beautiful time. Me and my partner came and enjoyed a lovely meal with great affordable cocktails! (6.35 or there abouts a drink) as well as a medium size bottle of sake and a few other drinks. We also had the ume sushi set and several sides and the whole meal came to 80. The service was amazing our waitress was India and she was attentive and made sure we were happy and ensured our night when smoothly. We arrived early due to being excited about the food and we were still made to feel comfortable and food and drinks all came out quickly and beautifully prepared. The food, the service and the drinks were all amazing! Tens across the board! Highly recommend! ”
“ I’ve tried so much ramen over the years and I found a hidden gem this restaurant makes the best ramen I’ve ever had. It tastes like they char grill the chicken and leaves a heavenly crispy skin with juicy chicken. Plus the sushi is out of this world definitely worth a visit! ”

“ Koishii apparently translates to missing someone, and I miss this place! The sushi was soo good and so fresh as well! All the prices were very reasonable for the high quality and the staff were all so lovely and kind! They gave free miso soup on arrival which was delicious. I don’t give 5 stars out freely but this place deserves it. ”
“ Wow. Some of the best sushi I’ve ever had. I was a solo diner, and made to feel very welcome. I ordered the Chicken Gyoza to start, followed by the Sushi Bento. The gyoza were delicious and crispy! The sushi bento was accompanied by delicious miso soup, and was extremely generous in portion, and absolutely delicious. I wish I had taken a photo as it was beautifully presented too! Next time I’m back in Plymouth, I will absolutely return!!! ”
