      Nice little place. Good food. Friendly staff.
      We moved to the area two years ago and have been patronizing Sushi Koji since.
      You should give it a try!

      My wife is from Hawaii and has borderline snobish standards for sushi. Few places are fresh enough for her. This is one of few placs in NoVA she will allow me to take her!

      Service is always prompt anf friendly. The restaurant is small and cozy without the music being too loud. Casual vibe. We've never needed to make a reservation.

      A standard neighborhood sushi restaurant. Not amazing, but not terrible. A solid 5.5/10.

      Food: fish was a bit fishier than I would have liked, rice was a bit too compressed and dense. My wife's tempura udon was good and we both loved our ades (yuzu and plum). The food was presented very nicely though so plus points for that.
      Value: here is where Sushi Koji lost a lot of points. surprisingly, more expensive than competitors ($48 for 9 nigiri and a roll?!) for less return (cheaper sushi options like white tuna/escolar or cooked shrimp in the nigiri combos). I've had other restaurants include toro before but here I felt like they were skimping. $10 for two salmon belly nigiri is a bit too much for the quality.
      Service: Great, attentive staff and quick turnaround on food.
      Ambiance: above average decor and quite welcoming.

      I would not come back, I think there are better sushi restaurants in the area, with more value.

      Free parking lot available. Korean owned Japanese restaurant. Came during dinner and there were only a couple of tables occupied. Nice ambience and decor. Staff was attentive and helpful. Food was good. Fish tasted fresh and nice presentation.

      Best sushi we have had so far in Virginia! Excellent service and most importantly the food is AMAZING. Small seating area and we had to wait a bit but it was worth the wait.

      I came here with a friend because she thought the way Chirashi was presented was really cute. I was not disappointed! The Chirashi came in a cute little boat along with the rice which was well seasoned. The regular sushi platter was more than enough for me (I have smaller portion) and I loved the portion of the salad appetizer. Usually restaurants only give a small plate but this place gave a small bowl of salad for each person. Service was really good. The waitresses came to check in on us multiple times and we were only there for less than an hour. Interior was very clean and modern, and I loved the ambience because of the dim yellow lights. I would say the quality of the sushi was great especially compared to the overpriced sushi place near my neighborhood that only has good presentation and mid sushi. I would love to bring my parents here!

      Pretty good sushi place! I would not come back, but they have good sushi and the price is right. The large sushi platter came with a decent selection of nigiri and a tuna roll. Not the best sushi ever, but it was tasty and filling for $30. The presentation was pretty, too. My favorite piece was the hidden nigiri that was wrapped inside the banana leaf. It looked like decoration, but was a delightful surprise!

      The chicken karaage was just ok. I wish it came with a dipping sauce, since it was bland. My boyfriend's ramen (kaizen seafood ramen) was not good. The noodle texture was off and the broth wasn't seasoned well. All of the toppings were clashing and overwhelming. The ramen was a struggle to finish.

      While the sushi wasn't bad, the other dishes need some improvements. The service was standard and unremarkable. I'm glad I tried Sushi Koji, but unfortunately, it's not a new favorite.

      A great sushi restaurant in Vienna! I had been craving sushi but I didn't really want to stray too far after work. Found this place on Yelp and became interested as the pictures of the fish looked amazing.

      Upon entering the establishment, it was a very clean and minimalistic interior which I love especially while eating raw fish. We were seated down immediately and our server was immediately there to help us as it was our first time.

      We started off with chicken karaage which was amazing! It had a nice crunch and I loved the edition of the pepper. For entree I got the sashimi large. Note that most places don't give as much sashimi pieces but at sushi koji for the price of $36, they give you A LOT of pieces for a large platter. Not only were there plentiful of sashimi pieces, each piece tasted soooo fresh.

      Such a great hidden gem for the area especially for nigiri and sashimi. I'm not really a sushi roll person so this place was perfect for me. Definitely give it a try if you're looking for a good sushi place without overspending too much.

      Sushi Koji is a neighborhood gem, serving delicious Japanese cuisine. The place is tucked away in a strip mall but the interior is nice with wooden accents and the service was good. But what brings us back is the food - sashimi is generous and beautifully presented and they have wonderful dishes like miso black cod and hamachi Kama. My family, especially my Japanese mother, enjoyed the food a lot. The only dish they found slightly less than authentic was the agedashi tofu, but overall it is excellent and highly recommended.

      The fish quality here is impressive for the DMV area and the pricing is justified. Sushi Koji is definitely on the busier side on a Saturday evening, so I'd recommend calling a few hours in advance to make sure you can get a table. I came here with two friends this past Saturday and we had a good experience. Initially, the three of us wanted to get the PARTY PLATTER A, but our server told us it would take ~40 minutes to make, so we decided against it. FYI - Definitely plan in advance if that's what you're interested in.

      SALMON ROLL - 6
      Pretty standard, six pieces salmon maki. The salmon was good quality and it was a tasty six bites. You won't be surprised.

      YELLOWTAIL ROLL - 7
      Also pretty standard - the yellowtail maki at Sushi Koji has more green onions than I'm used to which gave it a lot more oomph. The yellowtail was pretty good too, but nothing mind-blowing.

      SASHIMI FOR TWO - 68
      The two of my friends shared this and they thoroughly enjoyed it and thought the amount of sashimi was worth the price. Also, beautiful presentation! There was a variety of different sashimi - salmon, salmon belly, scallops, octopus, white tuna, tuna, and more. I only ate a piece of salmon belly and scallop, but both were fresh and delicious. I thoroughly enjoyed the salmon belly here. The scallops were also top-notch.

      I'm glad to see a good sushi restaurant in Vienna and now know where to go if I'm feeling sushi.
