Read moreHorrible experience. A group of 4 of us went to celebrate my mom’s birthday. The experience was pleasant up until after we ordered and everyone’s entree came out except my mom (the birthday girl). The waitress came back to the table and said “Oh you wanted a short rib meal as well” when she clearly did order the meal along with sides. So she had to wait an extra 25 minutes for her entree to come out because the waitress never put her order in. So she had to wait while the rest of the table was eating. When her food came to the table her brussels sprouts she ordered were totally raw. She informed the waitress and the waitress said she will bring it to the attention of the manager. When the waitress came back she said she was told the cooks prepare the brussel sprouts al dente. She also said she would throw in three surprise desserts for her being disappointed by her sides, but my mom preferred her bill to be comped since she didn’t enjoy it and it came out so late so she requested the manager to come to the table. The manager told us he didn’t know what the waitress was talking about in terms of the veggies being cooked a certain way so after he went back-and-forth with us for a good 10 minutes arguing about how the brussels sprouts seem to be cooked correctly he very abruptly and rudely said “ok what do you want then”. And that’s when I interrupted the conversation and said “I think she would like her whole meal to be taken off the bill because this is getting too blown out of proportion”. He said OK and came back with the new bill in five minutes slammed it on the table and said “OK here you go have a good day”. With all that said the once pleasant experience was turned negative by the wait staff and the manager Adrian arguing with us over a simple mistake that could’ve been fixed with either a new dish or just simply saying sorry, the manager was very very rude and sarcastic with how horribly he handled the situation and had no type of...
Read moreThis will be long but important. Koi was my absolute favorite restaurant. I used to come once a week and bring lots of friends there. Adrian the floor manager was always not very nice, but as food and stuff are amazing we ignored. Today, I got the bill and I found out I was charged for yozu on my nigiri 12$. I also found out that I was charged for a sashimi I didn’t order (I didn’t notice we got it to the table as we ordered lots of food). As we ate the sashimi I decided not to be not fair and to pay for it although it was their fault, but for the 12 $ I asked them to take it out. Adrian came, and told me in a very disrespectful tone “what’s your problem?” When explained he said he’s not taking the 12$ off, and that THEY DONT have to tell me they are going to charge me 12$ for yuzu. So I told him ok, then please remove the sashimi I never ordered, I didn’t want to be annoying but if you’re so pls remove your mistake. He told me he’s not removing it as we ate it , even when I explained I had no idea it was on the table with all the food we ordered. He said “you’re paying for both and if not I’ll call the police “. Just like that in front of everyone. When I told him ok call the police there was more back and forth (he also screamed at the server which was amazing btw) he came to me threw the bill on the table and said loud again - here I took out the sashimi You’re not welcome here anymore, we know who you’re . Just like that, in front of 4 other tables. Me and my friend were never so humiliated in our lives. And as I said , this is not the first time I hear about him from friends. I have plenty of other stories but this is what happened to me. I’m there at least once a week spending 300$-1000$ each time with friends!!!!!! You should be ashamed this is your manager, especially when your servers are amazing and the food is great. I do hope someone reads it and...
