Kochi Sushi Japanese Restaurant in Brockville

A hidden gem that I did not expect when my daughter suggested it. Parking: Days Inn building. Food : 5/5 |

I have zero reason to give anything less than 5 stars - The chicken teriyaki was delicious, service friendly and fast, and the atmosphere very comfortable

As someone who loves sushi when I found out this place existed I was so excited, until I found out they didn t serve all you can eat anymore. The worst part is some all you can eat ads still exist on their website so if you see that and go you ll be caught off guard. To be honest they are just abusing the fact they have loyal customers that ll spend a lot of money on their sushi. If I was them I d bring back all you can eat because you ll get a lot more business that way. It s only an extra 15 minute drive for myself to get to ten sushi in Ottawa and get all you can eat for 2 people for 80 dollars and that includes tip. If I want my cheese wontons it s a dollar a piece but at the other sushi location you get as many as you want. I hope this business learns its lesson in the long run because most places are switching to all you can eat - even Pizza Hut again! Don t use Covid as an excuse. You aren t fooling anyone.

Enjoyed our meal and the service. Will definitely go back

I can t explain how fun and nice this place is. It is family owned and a nice 8 year old boy sat us down very kindly. But if you don t care about atmosphere, care about the food. The food was made fresh, and was delicious. Everything about this place was perfect, not crowded, great food, and nice scenery around the restaurant. Parking: Plenty of free parking.

Our toddler has Type 1 Diabetes and needs precise carb counts for his insulin injections. We usually bring a pre-counted meal for him when dining out, just in case the restaurant doesnt provide this info. This establishment didnt offer carb information and refused to let us feed our son his own safe meal. The woman who seemed to be the manager angrily shouted at us, creating an unpleasant scene. We promptly left. To top it off, the food was subpar think greasy, deep-fried, syrup-soaked dishes youd find in a shopping mall food court. As someone who lived in Kyoto for six years, I can confidently say there was nothing remotely Japanese about it. The rest of the staff were friendly and apologetic, but the behavior of the management was unacceptable. We were a party of five looking for a new spot for our Friday family gatherings. This place certainly wont be it.

Kid-friendliness: I ordered take out. Despite having my ordered checked when I picked it up, I didnt get everything I ordered and did get something I hadnt. Sashimi was sub par Food

We got a delivery order for quite a bit of sushi and the service was wonderful! Super fast delivery and the delivery person was very friendly. Not to mention the sushi is super good! Highly recommend the gyoza appetizer! 10/10

Great sushi, made fast and reasonably priced.

This place was my go to favorite sushi place in my home town... but unfortunately due to covid and other reasons they had to take away the buffet option, which wouldnt be a huge deal if the sushi wasnt VERY over priced now. Unfortunately the sushi came out warm and dry, the cheese wontons were stale and mushy in the bottom, our server clearly didnt want anything to do with us so a nicer server ended up taking over for him... i wish i could give this a good review... we even planned our hotel stay in the Days inn just so we could go there, but almost 80$ at the end and still disappointed...

Stopped here for lunch. Really average sushi. Not bad, not great - just average. When finished the table was cleared so fast and bill presented instantly that I felt like we were not welcome to linger.

Great food.

Good and fast service, the rice could have been more compressed . It was a pleasant experience.

Food and atmosphere are mediocre ! An ok place to eat. Shrimp tempura was fried in old oil and dry/ hard. Restaurant is inside Days Inn building.

Great sushi! The romance roll and fantastic roll are, well, fantastic! Very fresh and nicely presented. Definitely worth the stop and conveniently located just off the 401.

Very nice and great with Gluten Free! Felt very safe.

I live in Ottawa and love making the trip to come for sushi here! Prices are good and the food is chef s kiss. You need to try the sesame chicken! So good my favourite spot for sushi! I d add photos but we ate everything wayyy to fast!

Food was okay, the service was extremely disorganized and thus turned the positive experience into a not so great experience. I think this was due to being understaffed so that could happen anywhere.

This was my first time. Great food, great service! Great find!

Nigiri sushi is razor-thin and lots of rice in the rolls

Superb hospitality, generous servings of delicious fresh food and a simple but comfortable dining room made this restaurant attached to the Days Inn a wonderful surprise in Brockville, close to the 401.

Really good place to eat, and we have pretty high standards for sushi.

Hi! It s all about the quality of the food . Fantastic & fresh. So if you have to wait, you wait! It is not fast food and you will not find this quality along the #401 from Montreal to Windsor Vegetarian options: Plenty Dietary restrictions: Easily order for food indiscretions I m allergic to onions juices. NP

Fast service, food not very good. The fried scallops texture bizare. Too much rice in the maki, and it was falling apart.

The Lady who took my order was quite nice and quick but the food itself wasnt the best, I felt like there was a little too much rice compared to fish and the fish itself wasnt terrible but I think they couldve put little bit of bigger pieces.

Decent sushi... Nice to have something in Brockville!

Gross food

The welcome was not there. The server disappeared for a very long time, so we were only able to order after we called out Hello several times at the bar, then I had to approach the kitchen door and yell Hello extremely loudly several times. Meanwhile there was only 1 other customer there. The server made us pay up front and was very surly about it. She refused to accept a credit card for payment. While waiting for our food, we used the bathroom, way downstairs and through circuitous hallways. This level was not at all clean or inviting, furthermore it smelled very bad. The washroom was out of order, with only one stall operational. It was not clean. It smelled terrible as well. This was so much the case that I feared for the quality of the food and whether it was even foodsafe & held to public health standards. The food tasted okay and the sushi rice was properly prepared. Nonetheless, I will never return! I cant recommend this place at all & would give it 0 stars on all criteria if I could. Avoid this food outlet, should you ever find yourself in Brockville.

Very good!

Favorite place to get sushi and saki. Lots to choose from the menu, Its fresh made while wait!!

Its alright , no real complaints aside from they still advertise all you can eat sushi but wont offer it . Its even still on the new menu they printed recently

Paid $25 for some rolls of sushi and basically got a container full of rice and no filling. Gotta fix that

Food was very mediocre at best. Sushi was warm and shouldnt have been. Service was ok. They do give discount to pay in cash.

Tried Sushi for the first time with my Boyfriend and the service was great!

The service and food is amazing. I will always be a returning customer :)

My order was prepared at time. It was Sushi Sashimi combo. I will never come back to this place; their white tune rolls were done from bread crumps, oil and rice only, tiny slices of fish excessive amount of rice, imitation of crab meat took place as well. I didnt eat most of get in this combo. This is was my last time ordered from Kochi Sushi.

Love this place food is always so delicious and the staff is helpful and so nice!

With Kochi the food is excellent but ever since covid they changed from all you can eat to a la cart which is pay per item. Very disappointed with them now that they have taken away there 1 price all you can eat.

I have never left a review for any restaurant before, and I m sorry but have to say this was the worst sushi restaurant I ve ever been too. The miso soup, my usual barometer, was awful and it all went downhill from there. Chicken teriyaki bento had no bed of onions/veggies with the chicken (which tasted a bit off ), the rice was was more Chinese than Japanese, the extra California rolls were sloppy, the rice warm, avocado over-ripe. The owner waitress was nice but that didn t make up for the food, not by a long shot.

This is not authentic Japanese food.

Food was absolutely delicious, price was great. Will definitely be ordering again!!!

Kid-friendliness: Even helped make kid friendly chopsticks. Food

Amazing sushi!!! Family-friendly atmosphere, great staff. Highly recommend.

We ordered 38 pieces of sushi as you see they were all rice and a very small portion fish we could not eat, this was the worest sushi experience for me Even one star is too much If I could I would give zero star Food : 1/5

The sushi itself is just borderline OK, but the chef put way too much spicy mayo over the tops of the spicy rolls - literally dabbed it off with a napkin and it was still swimming in it, ruined the meal. The soy sauce also tasted very concentrated, very very salty. The spicy tuna & salmon rolls were indistinguishable as they were mostly tempura with very little fish. The mango roll was tasty though, and the staff were friendly. The simple stuff is probably fine if youre in a pinch, just ask for any sauces on the side!

Great food. The tempura was fabulous! California rolls and Yaki tori chicken were delicious!

First time going and I ended up with food poisoning. I got the salmon rolls and these included the smallest portions of fish in the roll. Good for the people that don t like seafood I guess. The food tasted good and it was not expensive, but being sick for the next couple days puking is not worth it.

We ordered 50 pieces of sushi (party size), expecting it to be a sufficient portion for our needs(one adult and two kids). However, upon receiving the order, we were quite surprised by how small the portions actually were. I even double-checked with the lady at the restaurant, and she confirmed that it was indeed 50 pieces, but she kept insisting that we should order more dishes based on her suggestions. I must say, this has been the worst sushi experience I have ever had. The portion size was disappointing, and the constant pressure to order additional dishes made the situation even more frustrating.

Our go to place for sushi. Dietary restrictions: They offer gluten-free options! Food : 5/5 |

Come to kochi sushi everyone if you want to eat sashimi,sushi,roll can order Party E (50pcs) if more people can order the Party F (73pcs) is a good price

Kochi is the best Family Owned Japanese Restaurant I have found across Ontario. They are extremely polite and the service is lightning fast. Its a great atmosphere and a great place to have a bite to eat during my road trips. Would recommend to anyone looking for true Japanese cuisine.

I liked the food, it wasn t anything special but it wasn t horrible. I m learning Japanese so it was fun to try and pick up what they were saying but I was to awkward to speak any but I would definitely recommend this place!

went here about a month ago, portion sizes were awful. Paid 50$ for a platter of sushi expecting it to feed 3 people when in reality it was only suitable to feed one person. You re better off going to a buffet or an all you can eat or buffet, you will get way more food portions for a similar price

To flee.. Already when you arrive in the restaurant the floor is so sticky that your shoes stay stuck to the floor.. I have never eaten in such bad sushi.. The Salmon Maki had almost no salmon only rice. The rice has an unpleasant aftertaste. MISO soup is not good. And finally the Bento is a disaster.. just frozen without flavor, the Tofu had an unpleasant sauce and the icing on the cake was that we got sick after this restaurant. In short, dont go there..

This is an okay place, it got much better in recent years, still there s more room to grow. Their sushi are just okay bordering on the hood side, but never great. The inside of the place has a persistent weird smell and looks super dated, so you are better off doing a takeout. I always get a weird feeling when I come to this place though, as if I m not wanted there, and they are just tolerating me, even if it s just a takeout. But at least the sushi a safe to eat, there s nothing wrong with them. Miso soup though is just water with zero taste and zero substance. So yeah, my feelings about this place are very mixed.

Kochi is and always will be a delight! Only thing stopping me from making this a 5-star review is the forever longing for the old, less expensive menu. Other than that, an amazing Sushi resturant - the best Ive ever had the pleasure of eating at

Good for fast food sushi at a fair price

This place is no longer all you can eat, that was probably the worst decision they could ve made. The customer service has not improved since I ve been here last, the prices per roll and the quality do not match. I ll drive to Ottawa if I truly want a sushi experience.

I stop here every time on my commute from Toronto to Ottawa. Very friendly staff, food is amazing.

We have had better Japanese food. Definitely not 4 stars.

Great food all around! Sushi is fresh! Prices are decent as well. Service was good.

This place is the worse place to get sushi. The fish was paper thin you could see through it. The waitress forgot my wifes order and took long to get it. The sushi was mostly rice. I ordered a bento box and the short ribs was very tiny. I asked for water and no ice in it. Never again when I return to Brockville will step on foot in the so called sushi restaurant. Wheelchair accessibility: No wheelchair accessibility

First time being here and definitely love the inside look. The people are so nice and kind. The food is so good and fresh. I definitely will come back and would recommend this place.

Service and food not so great

Took the whole family out. They loved each getting a chance to order a dish and share as well

This used to be all you can eat. After two years of not being in Brockville, we came to visit family and went to Koshi Sushi for lunch. As we used to, we ordered many types of sushi...not realizing they were no longer doing all you can eat... we were not informed otherwise... however, the server kept coming back to get orders as they would for all you can eat. The menu also doesnt specify that theyre only doing priced menu items and still says all you can eat. Its a scam and the food isnt good enough to be paying price per item. The only type of compensation that was offered was if we wanted to pay cash and get 10% off the price. Youre better off going to the Superstore for your sushi fix.

Love this Brockville institution every time we get together with the family. Great party platters, consistently good quality would recommend.

Always great food and service!

Best sushi iv had in a along time. Very professional staff and always super nice. I recommend this place to anyone that wants good fresh sushi.

Not edible and pay a high price

The best sushi places are the ones with a disappointing exterior and cheap decor. This place is no exception. Sushis were fresh and definitely affordable. The rice will fill you up fast. Service was also friendly.

Had their Fresh fresh sushi for lunch with hot tempura. Our 7th time here...at least. Always excellent.

Staff were polite, shame the food wasn t great. I would give 2 stars, but I m considering that this place isn t exactly metropolitan, so perhaps my expectations need to be tempered a little.

Amazing sushi. Ambiance was great, service was fantastic and extremely quick for dine in. Would highly recommend the crab mango sushi and would come back!

Drive right on past this restaurant in a dive hotel with a sketchy bathroom. Weird service. Not worth the price.

Currently Koshi Sushi is open for Dine-in and Take-out. Their all you can eat buffet option however is not. When talking to the employees they stated we cannot offer the buffet yet as we arent officially open yet Avoid this corrupt place until they offer dining at a cost per plate again, if not be prepared to pay 10.99-12.99 for 4-6 rolls depending on your preferred menu items.

Totally surprised/shocked when the bill came. Its NOT all you can eat! Sign needs to be changed. False advertising.

My first time trying Sushi that wasnt just crab or shrimp and it was spectacular!! Ive been back 3 times. The service is quick, food is fresh and they are so helpful with any questions you have!

Used to be an amazing place to go get lunch with friends. They took away the all you can eat but still have the sign up. Bring back all you can eat to get full stars

Good food, large selection, service is okay. No longer offers buffet.

At this time there is no all you can eat, if anyone is wondering. Good service, good food. Staff communicating with each other sometimes can get a little too loud, but other wise polite and attentive.

Sushi, rolls were edible. Tempura Udon and teriyaki chicken bento was not. Udon was too salty and chicken had no flavor.

Always amazing food and service. Miss their buffet though

Fantastic place. Always fresh. Tons of selection. Would love to see the all you can eat come back.

Good sushi

Not tasty food, small portions, poor presentation, unfriendly service. We did not have much expectations, but we were unpleasantly surprised. Google rating 4.2? Does not look like.

Fast service and friendly staff

Honestly I don t usually write bad reviews, but I feel obliged to warn people before they eat here - it s that bad. I initially got takeout from Kochi about four years ago, and thought it was ok, but when I went this month I thought it was the worst food, service, and value, I ve ever had - in my life. The sushi is really, really, bad quality (I ve eaten sushi at easily 50 different places over 15 years and I would say this is unfortunately the worst ever). It feels truly like the person cooking just doesn t care about the food at all. The presentation is bad, the service is also bad. The place is dirty, windows dirty, tables are sticky you get the picture. Proceed warned. If you re really craving sushi in Brockville you might have better luck with the pre-made stuff at superstore.

Amazing food, always get take out. Cannot wait for all you can eat again

Good sushi and excellent service.

Decent sushi spot if your in Brockville. We did takeout of a 80 pc tray with a side of shrimp tempura. Cost us around $85 and was ready in 20 minutes. It was presented well. I can t comment on the eat in experience but I did not enjoy interacting with staff during pickup. We had forgot to order one of our drinks and had to go back in to get one. The lady was upset that we were buying an extra drink using debit. Their flyers and menu claim to be all you can eat buffet, but apparently this no longer exists. They offer 10% off your order if your willing to pay cash. You can have a free birthday meal but only if you bring at least 5 people.

Definitely one of the top sushi places Ive been to. Very consistent, never let down!

Efficient and fast 4-star service (too bad the waiter gave the impression of not wanting to be there) Decoration 4 stars really very beautiful decoration which set the mood. Access through the hotel doesnt necessarily make you want to go inside, seen from the outside. 3 star food neither good nor bad. The sushi was not up to par. 4 star price, you pay for what you eat, the price is relatively fair.

Worst sushi I ever had in my life. Food is awful nothing fresh. Had Wonton and Seafood soup tasted like out of can. Sushi fish was rubbery and it all tasted the same. Nori was chewy and rubbery, we had to unroll our sushi to be able to eat it, threw away the Nori. Inside was dirty tables are sticky and baby seat was disgusting. Owners also argued on multiple occasions in front of clients. Service is awful, had to ask for everything multiple times. We went to McDonalds afterwards. In hind-site we probably should have returned the food and left, never again. And I almost forgot, they are scamming the government out of tax money you get 10%off if you pay cash! Surprised CRA hasnt shut them down yet.

Fresh, tasty food. Decent prices. Many vegetarian and vegan options as well. The teriyaki tofu was excellently cooked. Really delicious. Friendly, fast service. I recommend!

No more all you can eat! And the take out was terrible when we got it. Such a bummer

Food is always good but, due to no longer offering all you can eat, it becomes a very expensive lunch/dinner. Unfortunately I will not be returning until this changes back.

The salmon is fresh , our waiter is very friendly. love it.

Sushi was good and fast to come out. Drinks were served in the can and the all you can eat was not available. Parking: Parking was easy right outside.

The less stuffed Dragon Roll /Dynamic roll ever, and it cost us $10+. We tried these two kinds of rolls plenty of times in different Japanese restaurant. Only in this place, the crab meat/ shrimp/ egg are replaced by rice.

Meh

This USED to be a great place. Good quality sushi and all you can eat. Then during Covid, they were just doing Al la cart. Now there s no all you can eat, they ve also dropped the soup and salad from the combos which I ve NEVER seen at a sushi restaurant ever, all combos come with soup and salad. And worst of all, I ordered a $60 party tray that came with rice inside the roll (where it s supposed to be fish). They filled the roll with extra rice. I will never come here again, it s a complete insult to their customers. We now drive to Kingston or Ottawa and happily pay $35 p/ person because it s actually worth it.

Used to be a good place for all you can eat. This is no longer offered and frankly all the stars get taken off for this. The food is not authentic/anything special to be priced the way it is and this was mostly worth the all-you-can eat price due to variety. My family and I used to go here regularly but for the last 2 years its not serving all-you-can eat anymore. Weve attended and eaten a-la-carte but were disappointed all three times. We will not be returning, unfortunately. I would rather drive to Ottawa or Kingston. Do not recommend.

We miss the All You Can Eat

Food is great but they use to do all you can eat but dont do it anymore so Ive got to give a 2 star

Amazing Sushi ... loved

I ordered 16 sushis and I was disappointed because there was too much rice and little salmon in the sushis. Lot of oils too.. So next time, I hope they put more salmon and less oil.

Ordered party tray 50 pieces with mix of sushi, sashimi and a few maki rolls. We live hour away and got home to find a full tray of maki rolls. Totally disappointed. Ginger was dreadful. Won t be back!!!

This used to be a great all you can eat place and the quality was exceptional, especially for a smaller town. Now it is awful, the quality has gone way down and there is no effort put in. The fish doesn t smell or taste fresh. I really hope this place goes back to the way it was.

My family and I had dinner at Kochi a few weeks back. The food all tasted great! The only drawback was the wait at times, as well as the food temp. My soup was boiling hot.

The best I have ever had... And on point service

Great sushi. Nice treat ever once in a while.

Currently offering only takeout due to the pandemic. Cheese wontons are lovely, and the new special rolls are delicious.

Biggest challenge is whether to go purely with sushi/ sashimi, or for Japanese favorites! Make the choice to go one way or the other... then order in a week or so to try the other :0) Have to admit I was skeptical.. but the sushi was fresh.. the miso soup was awesome and the service was friendly... and there was a line up for take out... which generally speaks for itself when it comes to quality and yumminess! Give it a go...... support our local restaurants... theyre trying really hard to keep us happy.... and to stay afloat!

What a disappointment!! Since when must you leave a tip when picking up an order. Beware if you plan on paying with a card. The male employee at the cash pressed the 12% tip button then passed the key pad for payment card and PIN. When we realized the discrepancy and called Kochi the employee denied his action even when we have proof in the 12% difference from the bill and our account transaction. Never again will we be eating here and supporting this business. Save a pile of money and go to Billy Ks just a few hundred meters north in the plaza behind Wendys, you wont be disappointed there!

Ordered takeout. Party tray was awesome but also ordered 3 sides of beef tataka which was not at all what beef tataka should be as it is one of my favorites. It was basically a peppercorn coated medium cooked (way overcooked)steak cut way too thick with a sauce over top of a pile of stick cucumbers and raw asparagus. All you could taste was peppercorns. At almost $7 a small side container it was just awful and a waste of money

This was deliceous also a excellent service! Thank you :)

All set-up for take out dinners with a whole set of disposable bowls for 20 pc sashimi dinner.

Its only pick up right now but my husband and I love the food and go there often. The service has always been good.

Absolutely delicious sushi, made fresh!

We drove in off the highway, after being on the road all day. We just wanted enough for 2 of us. We were 15 minutes before closing. The staff at Kochi Sushi were happy to fill our order and we took it to go. So fresh and fast and friendly! Gluten free options! Thanks again! Will definitely come again when we can sit and enjoy!

This is not good japanese food.The squid was so bad.

Good service

We absolutely love the all you can eat sushi! I really wish they would re-open as we are in stage 3. We frequented Kochi Sushi before the pandemic but have not had the chance since before the first lock down. Very disappointing as the food is absolutely delicious.

Really good tasty food however I was looking forward to an all u can eat supper after 4 months in the middle of nowhere

Very good sushi place! Pleasantly surprised, everything is excellent!

The staff shouted and it took a really long time. The sushi is good

The food was really grouse. That how terryaki chicken looks. Never come there really bad service we don t like the food and they don t wanna refund money.

The food smelled like fish and the taste was terrible. The service was terrible we tried to pay and she was talking in her language that was racist. And we tell her to refund the money back and she said that we order the food we have to pay but we tell the server that udon soup smell terrible. We tell her the right way that food smells bad. But she starts arguing with us. I try to get her attention but she was talking on the phone taking another order. People just stay away from this place the food is terrible sushi is dry.

Quality is below average. Sashimi tastes like it was just defrozen.

They have their all you can eat banner up, but force you to order and pay as though its take out. Waste of time, thanks for misleading us.

Garbage place, never open when they should be and never do the all you can eat when they should be

Great food great service as long as you like that Type of food.

Great little spot in Brockville. Super fast service, very fresh, and well made.

Always delicious

Very good sushi!

Inaccurate info, not ayce despite all of their signage

Rice was crusty, not the best sushi out there. Good price though.

Stinky smelling

Enjoyed a la cart menu tonight. The cheese wontons are always a favourite. Be sure to finish off with a spicy and refreshing ginger roll.

they were very attentive and the food was great, will go back for sure.

Delicious and prompt service

ok

I wont be going back. My family and I were going at least once a week, we loved it. The service during our last visit was really bad. The new waitress wasnt listening and never came back to refill waiter or ask if we wanted to order anything else and then they tried to charge us 92.00 for 3 adults (at lunch.) Then my 2 daughters went the next day and were treated very badly. They were told to order everything they wanted at once. The wait staff has really gotten rude and aggressive. We are really disappointed.

Great food! Great attentive service. Sashimi was fresh and rolls were delicious! Great all-you-can-eat lunch price too

Good food

amazing food

Always a favourite

Great service good food everything came very fast. Excellent for AYCE

great place for a leisure dinner.... lots of variety

BEST SUSHI EVER! I promise you will not be disappointed! I m obsessed. Staff are always so kind and pleasant. Highly recommend!!

So delicious

Great sushi

dig the vibe & the food here is really worthwhile!

Best sushi in Brockville
