Restaurant closed early for their convenience. Got there at 8:41p and they had their doors locked early. They don’t close until 9pm. Worker just watched as I stood outside.
Got 4 different sushi rolls and Im not able to take any home because its all been eaten, very delicious and quick service. Smaller setting and yet absolutely perfect to be a sushi bar would 100% come back! Note: had the 007, buckeye, san Fran, and misty rolls!
Its hard to beat their Kooma or Sunday Morning rolls. Such a big selection and the rolls are prepared really, really well. Great side salad as well. The interior is dimly lit and great for dinner but a little dark for lunches.
We’ve been trying to eat at Kooma for years, but always seem to arrive when they are closed. It was worth the wait. Unbelievable sushi and great prices. We suggest you check hours.
Be careful if you have a food allergy. Took me a few pieces to realize they messed up both of my rolls. An hour to get it wrong, then another 45 minutes to get it to go. Now my stomach hurts and Ill be eating cold fried rolls later. (Edit: it was too stale to eat later. Missed half of my event for nothing and down $40)
We used the website to order takeout, got there and were initially ignored. Finally someone came over to ask for our info and friends who ordered after us got their food while we watched what turned out to be our order sit for a good 40 minutes, so sushi was obviously not fresh. Skip this place and just go to some place else.
Good sushi rolls. With that said. They are smaller than most. And if you get any soup or salad it WILL BE TINY. Miso soup is about 4 tablespoons. I guess you have to ask for a double and pay $6?? To get a CUP. Here’s my Togo. Heck I guess this is COVID-19 related. Who knows.
Delicious sushi and their udon is the second best Ive had in Columbus!
Awesome sushi. Just what we were looking for. Great selection and friendly staff.
Sushi is amazing but it’s a long wait to get food. Servers usually don’t speak to you for 20+ min and food takes an hour to come out.
Ordered the dinner box (nigiri is chef’s choice) and the shrimp habachi dinner (which comes with miso soup).The dinner box was ok. Nothing too spectacular. The nigiri was a bit room temp and the chicken seemed a bit overcooked. It filled the stomach. I didn’t get a little sauce dish for soy sauce so I used the little square in the middle that had ginger in it.The shrimp habachi.....was....AMAZING!!! Oh the pan is super burning hot so don’t touch it. We weren’t warned so hubby’s fingers were burnt... It was very flavorful and it a fair amount of different colored veggies to satisfy. It comes with rice but it might not be enough.Will definitely come back for the habachi!!!
Took a little time for food to hit the table, but when it did it was very good 👍 🍣
Food was excellent. Great job of keeping order while so so busy
One of the best sushi spots in town, and not terribly expensive. Cant wait to go back!
Friendly staff and good sushi
No stars would be more appropriate. Sat for 20 minutes before server, who sat us, even came back. Sat for just under 1.5 hours before being told our food was still 15 minutes out.....Appeared well staffed, just no concept of service. Had to leave before any food arrived so cannot speak to food quality.
Amazing sushi! Very fresh seafood! Excellent speedy service!
Absolutely love this place. Ive been coming here for years. The rolls are exquisite and perfectly done!
The sushi was good, and a small restaurant, but the service was slow.
Very fresh... very delicious! A nice blend of traditional technique with modern flair.
Simply amazing!!! We walked from our hotel for a nice lunch, and were pleasantly surprised by the incredible quality and freshness of everything we ordered! Great service, very friendly and accommodating! GO EAT HERE!!!
We had a great experience here. They do not offer curbside pickup online but we called when picking up our sushi and the employee was nice enough to bring the order out to the car. The Monday special hour rolls are a great deal.
Went here three times during the Arnold classic. relatively fast service considering how busy the place was. The food was all amazing, My husband got the Kinky roll and I got different types of California rolls, the seaweed salad was a rip off because they layered the bottom with iceberg lettuce and it wasnt that much to start with. Sushi value was decent though. Expect to spend 20-25$ a person on a meal. Overall a good restaurant.
Ive been here multiple times. The food is good, and I love the hot dishes here. Ive never had an issue with the food. The appetizers are great. The sushi is good quality--however, I feel like the price you pay for the sushi is too high compared to the amount of sushi you get (the rolls are so small!).If you want a truly authentic experience and amazing food that is better priced (you get more for what you pay for), I would recommend Akai Hana instead. If you want a quick fix and this is close by, Kooma is fine.
This is a great casual sushi place for rolls, specifically; casual furniture and a youngish crowd. Not a lot of bento box options or a huge selection of entrees, but the rolls were creative and delicious, with very fresh and tasty ingredients. The service was competent, but not as friendly as I experienced at most other places I visited while in Columbus. Prices are mostly reasonable, though there was one too on the menu that cost 30+ dollars. I would definitely go back.
One of our favorite sushi spots. Great rolls with good veggie selection.
Great sushi the shrimp tempura role was deep fried itself lol
The food was really good here - and the Godzilla roll will change your life!
I eat here quite a bit as its near work. The lunchbox is a great portion but generally a few drawbacks... 1, the place smells bad. I know its sushi, but its really bad all the time. 2, quite a few times my chicken teriyaki has been inedible rubber in the lunchbox. It happens enough that its clearly something to do with how theyre keeping it. Still a decent place for lunch..
We ordered sushi rolls, and in the time it took us to actually get them several tables sat after us and were fed. We were ignored by the waitstaff in the interim. Turns out our plates of sushi were sitting out for the half hour we were waiting. Delicious and great drinks, but I bet it would have tasted better if we had gotten them as soon as they were finished.
BEST SUSHI EVER!!!! We always visit Kooma when we are in town!
This place not only failed to inform its customers of seeds with literally all their items on the menu but when I informed them I had Crohn’s disease. Sam, the cook said that he could remake the food but I’d still have to pay for it. Excuse me, but it’s not on your menu. And then after I proceeded to order something else without the seeds. He never discounted my order. Poor way to treat your customers. So a 90 dollar bill all because they don’t accommodate ppl with diseases. My waitress was awesome though, jerrica keep it up!!!
We ate an early dinner at Kooma on a Saturday evening. We ordered several sushi rolls, a couple pieces of nigiri, and a bottle of sake. The food and drink was wonderful. The sushi was incredibly fresh tasting and the rolls had been prepared so that the rice had the perfect amount of stickiness to keep everything together nicely....something thats hard to come by in the Midwest.We noticed that some of the menu items had the same names as the unique items from Mr. Sushi in Dublin. We inquired about this and were informed that the sushi chef from Mr. Sushi is friends with the Kooma sushi chef and they shared techniques and recipes.The restaurant is very small: maybe seats 25 not including the bar which seats another 5 or so. The lighting is dim and the decor is dark, creating an intimate atmosphere. Despite the relatively rowdy group sitting near us, noise was not a problem. I would recommend this restaurant to the hip, urban crowd looking for a relatively private location to share some excellent sushi.The only complaint I have is that upon exiting the restaurant, my wife and I were overwhelmed by the smell of either rotting or old fish. This made our stomachs turn just after thoroughly enjoying our dinner. Im hoping that this was the trash behind the building that was wafting toward the entrance, but regardless of what it was, it needs to be controlled!
This has been the worst service and experience I have had eating anywhere in Columbus. Do yourself a favor and eat somewhere, anywhere else in town.We arrived at the restaurant at 7:10 pm and did not have an order taken until well after 8. We finally received our food at 9:10pm. During this time I received 1 water refill and that was after asking 4 times.One of the members of my party approached the owner about the quality of service. He blamed his waitress, and told us we could accept 30% off or we could leave before we got our food. We had been waiting for almost 2 hours at that point.Some of the sushi may have been okay (mine wasnt) but when it sits out for 20 minutes, and is delivered at near room temperature, its really not edible. Smallest Spider Roll Ive ever had, very poor presentation.The service and quality of food combined were beyond unacceptable. The bathroom was disgusting and filthy, smelled like it had not been cleaned in weeks or more. The owner was rude and had no concern for making our experience right at all. If I could give this place negative stars, I would.
In town for a cheer comp with my wife and girls. I wasnt sure about the wait after reading the past reviews, but my girls really wanted sushi. Turned out to be a great experience with none of the trouble the low-rating reviewers had. Ashley was an awesome server and super gracious with my little girls. Thank you and we will be back.
Great service and food. As a catholic who does not eat meat on friday the sushi was amazing.
Small little sushi bar an restaurant nice atmosphere an seating. Place was very clean an the staff was nice. Delicious spot for dinner, sushi did take awhile to make. Rather have the sushi made well an take longer though.
Kooma sushi is always consistent. The lunch box has a variety of some of the best dishes Kooma offers. It is filling and a great value for the amount of food. Substitute the California roll for any roll of your choice to spice things up (upcharge applies).
Some the Best Sushi Ive had in a long time. Small cozy little place. Food had some of the best flavor ever. The octopus was perfect and Mackerel was even better. A definite visit if you are ever in Columbus.
Had a pleasant birthday lunch there with some coworkers. We ordered a variety of sushi, lunchboxes and bibimbap. The miso soup was nice and hot and the meals came with all the usual accoutrements. The staff were quick, attentful and service was good. The decor is a little dark and moody but the food and staff are quite the opposite. Would recommend this place and will be going back to sample other dishes in future.
I was not impressed with this places sushi. Most of the rolls have a california roll base, which is fine if youre not looking for, well, variety. For their prices, I expected a lot more diversity like tuna, salmon, yellowtail..anything other than California rolls over and over again with slightly different toppings.That being said, their cooked food is fantastic. I would definitely come here again, but it would not be for the sushi.
I was very happy with my experience. It is a little more pricey compared to a lot of other locations. But the price is noticeable as soon as you taste the food. It all appears to be of a higher fresher quality. I would absolutely go back. The server was great. I just wish the speed of service had been a tad quicker. But as a whole I will return.
My favorite Sushi place in Columbus. I have been here many times.The portion of the Sushi is perfect. Not too big and unmanageable, like other sushi places where you cant fit the sushi in your mouth, or it falls apart.Typical selection of fish.Other menu items are fairly delicious too, but many Japanese cuisine items, such as curry or Katsu dishes arent available. There are some Korean options, though.
Fantastic sushi, and great drinks.
Very good sushi and not overly expensive. We got good recommendations from the waitress and our orders came out quick. I wouldnt go here with a group larger than 6 though, it is small inside.
Picking up my daughter @ OSU, she recommended this place as good quality sushi, no frills, better value than most downtown spots - she was right. Variety of good cocktails (ginger martin a wiinner, as was the licheeteeni). Stonepot bibimbap tasty, plenty for two to share. Lots of good choices in rolls (eel caterpillar roll tasty). Hard to get good sushi for two with drinks for $60 or less, but this was a good choice.
A little bit of a wait but we went on a Friday night so completely expected! Only took about 30 min for a table to open up. Great service and fantastic sushi! Oh and the calamari is also delicious
The food is decent, however maybe a little pricey when considering some of the other sushi opinions on in town. Service from the staff can be extremely slow. Overall a reliable sushi date night and meal but nothing to to rave about.
Came in on a Wednesday night and they were looking a little busy. Sign at the front said “Please wait to be seated”, so we did. Two girls were working the floor and there were two spots open at the sushi bar. Nobody acknowledged us. Not a server, not a sushi chef. We waited for over 5 min, watched the servers walk past many times and nobody said a thing. If they just said, “hi, we’re busy, we’ll be right with you”, we would have been fine. Instead we left disgruntled, probably never to return.
Best place in columbus for sushi
Its a bit pricey. Appetizer calamari deep fried wasnt that good. It was really deep fried. Sushi rolls are good but portions arent too big.
The fish is very good, and artfully sliced. Personally, Im not a fan of the rice used in the nigiri and maki. It is denser and drier than I like. The miso is very good. For the price, I was disappointed that no salad came with the sushi/sashimi combo. I would definitely go back.
Sorry, dropped my sushi walking home, but this place was awesome. Very, very sushi and I would definitely recommend checking it out. Service was very good too.
The best sushi I have ever had. Even the leftover Cali rolls were good the next night. Split the seafood platter with a friend, tons of yummy scallops, shrimp, and two lobster tails- Amazing! ! The server made us feel right at home and made some wonderful suggestions.
Slow service -- though to be fair they warned us they were running behind-- sticky tables, small place with 3 wait staff yet its hard to get their attention, sushi is bland and special rolls where meh, edamame was under cooked. On top of which this place is fairly expensive, with most special rolls in the $14+ range.
Some of the best sushi in Columbus. You get what you pay for. I enjoy how much white tuna they have in their rolls. Every time we’ve gone, the sushi was fresh and flavorful.
Best sushi in Ohio and one of my favorites in the world.
Tasty sushi in Columbus and one of my favorite sushi places. The rolls are delicious and the price is decent, service is also great.
To whom it may concern,I am writing to you to share my experience at your restaurant, Kooma in West Chester, with hopes that this experience doesnt happen to any other customer. I will start by saying I am a huge fan of Kooma and come about 3-5 times a month. On this particular evening, Tuesday (5/2/17) our experience was a complete disappointment.When we were seated, we ordered 4 glasses of wine and some waters. It took about 26 minutes for our wine to reach the table. My colleagues drink took so long she asked if she could get a red wine instead of the white, but the server said she couldnt switch because the drinks were being made. That was the first issue, but we said it wasnt a big deal and she drank the white. As a waitress myself, if a customer ever requested a drink change, we would immediately accommodate to what they want, after all, they are paying for their wine and their experience.Then, we ordered calamari that took over 35 minutes to come out, but we assumed the server forgot to put it in or perhaps it was his first night serving, because it was a slow Tuesday evening. Which then meant that my sweet potato roll and shrimp tempura roll were both cold and hard when they came out.Then, our sushi came out on a huge platter, instead of our own plates. We all ordered separately and never said we wanted it on one plate. A different server came over and took the platter back and separated our individual orders so we could all finally eat.Then, a colleague of mine found a long hair entangled in her sushi. We notified our server and he took the sushi to the manager who then, instead of going to the back kitchen to examine the hair, he slowly pulls it out in front of everyone eating, and other tables where all looking with a face of disgust, as they are trying to enjoy their own sushi from that same kitchen. The manager then comes to our table and puts the hair close to her face and says, Im sorry you found a hair in your food, but its blonde and you have blonde hair. Who says that? First of all, its was not hers because it was entangled in the sushi. Then he brings her out a new roll, but only one roll... she had ordered two.Finally, after all of this my friends husband asked for a box to put his leftover chicken teriyaki and he finds a curly long black hair in the leftovers, after he ate the entire meal with it in there.At this point I was waiting for the hidden cameras to come out and us to be told we were on a prank TV show. We call the manager over AGAIN and show him. He then takes it back for about 5 minutes then returns to table to say that the hair was actually part of the food they use to bake, but looks a lot like hair. or some complete bogus reason. Sir it was hair, we all held our camera flashlights up to it, it was a long curly black hair.I am hoping no one else has an experience like this, because it was a complete waste of $128. The way the manager handled it could have completely changed our experience. Even if the hair was the same color as the customers hair, you do not say that.Thank you for your time and I hope this issue can be addressed so it doesnt happen again. I would like to redo our visit with a better experience.Jordan Baxter610-476-0364
Visiting Columbus for the weekend. Found this gem hidden next to a parking garage. Ordered hibachi and a sweet and spicy chicken with edemame and tempura. All very good, though a little on the expensive side. The actual space inside the restaurant is small so probably not good for large groups.
New to Columbus and looking for a good traditional sushi restaurant. Kooma Sushi was okay but not great. Despite the signage that Vine St garage parking will be validated, I was told it wasnt available because the garage didnt provide them with enough validation tickets. Not a big deal but the final nudge that made me think, nah, no reason to come back here.
Asian food at this location - very good. Everyone at our table was very satisfied. Really nothing but great experiences here, so I will be back. It has a great feel to it.
The sushi is fresh, over-priced, and the service is mediocre at best. Prepare for a very long wait on your food if there are any other patrons whatsoever in the restaurant.
Great menu, nice atmosphere, thought the sushi was a little dry.
Too expensive for something very little. Sushi were not well made for the prices we paid and they were cheap ingredients (mostly imitation crabs, cucumber and cream cheese so you tell me how much the cost should be for ingredients like these).
Terrible...the service was slow, my order was incorrect, and the california roll tasted fishy. After passing this information along to the server, nothing was offered or deducted from my bill. I didnt even eat my dinner it was so awful. There are great places to eat sushi in Columbus, but this is one I definitely wouldnt recommend.
Ive been going to Kooma since they opened almost 20 years ago. Their sushi is very good for being in Central Ohio. The Stonepot Bibimbap is outstanding and my go-to dish.
Like a little Short North secret, even after who-knows how long its been there. Although Kooma has a small dining room with a sometimes overloaded sushi chef, its got great food (that includes sushi and non-sushi offerings) and good service. The frequent DJ and the nice little bar are nice, too.PARKING TIP: Kooma validates - if you print a ticket and tell the garage attendant (next door deck) youre going to the restaurant hell let you in. Its not free, but much less than the event price thats usually in effect.
Incredible sushi and great staff. Nationwide and the palace theatre are within walking distance as well making it a great place to eat and or drink before events.
This. Restaurant. Smells. Terrible.An overwhelming smell of an out house.It almost makes you want to vomit.Ive been in plenty of sushi establishments, that is not why it smells.
I got some sushi rolls and Sashimi. The food was great and has a good atmosphere. The prices were pretty reasonable as well
Food was not good. Server was not good she never asked if we needed anything. My husband ran out of drink before he finished his food. Our bill was $77.00 for three people and no drinks we had water.
Very poor service. Patrons are basically ignored and basic thing such as taking tour order takes way too long. Try and find another sushi place if you are considering it.
A festive, social Asian restaurant. Our group ordered amazing looking Rainbow Rolls, tempura, and Bibimbap. Everything was delicious, but we all envied the stove pot Bibimbap when it came out.
Great food everytime. Servers are very nice and patient. The only drawback are the hours. If you arent paying attention you could miss your window! Not enough of a drawback to lose a 🌟.
I got take out and the food was average. Id give take out 3 starts. However I went back and ate in the restaurant. Good and service was great; definitely 5 stars.
The best sushi my husband and I have ever had. A little pricey (we spent over $60 with a tip on lunch) but worth every penny.
Very good sushi, small and intimate space if you like that.
Outstanding location for quality Asian food. Service is excellent even when they are busy. Prices that wont break you.
Literally the worst service.. the stone pot bibimbap wasnt good either. They have a really good roll selection and the roll we got was really good, but we will not be back because the service was so God awful.
Pretty quick service and good food.
Good service. Good sushi. All good! Cool little after work spot. Would definitely come again when in town.
Ive only been twice but the sushi was so delicious and the sushi great! Not to mention its extremely reasonably priced!
Salmon sashimi is some of the best i have had globally. chef cuts sashimi into size pieces you can put in your mouth without biting or cutting. finally!!!!!
The lunch box was the perfect amount of food for lunch. The sushi was pretty good, nothing crazy. I will definitely be going back.
Hip little sushi spot next to the North Market, also serve some crowd-pleasing asian dishes for those less enthusiastic about sushi. Love the stone pot bibimbap.
Fresh fish and great sushi. They are open late and have a friendly atmosphere.
Great atmosphere and restaurant. Waiters were nice too. Though, the Stonepot Bibimbap was not as good as expected. Some of it were burnt.
Very creative rolls. Yum.
This place was great. I basically did the Tuna overdose. I got the hamichi sashimi (2 orders) and the grilled tuna jaw (hamichi kama) and it was on point!
Great spot for sushi lunch in the Arena District. Their spicy tuna roll is one of my favorite in the city.
Good sushi. Visited after a hockey game and not much of a crowd. Definitely got our moneys worth.
Good sushi, prices may be a little hiked. Who orders single pieces? Was surprised to get one piece given the price....
The best sushi is all that needs to be said.. They make you feel like you are at home there good environment!
Great ambient, good attention, delicious sushi, fair prices... excellent place to have a private conversation or hang out with friends.
One of my preferred places for quality Asian food. visited on sat i believe. the service was sociable and attentive.
Food was good. Would return if in the area. They have a lot of sushi options to choose from.
A bit pricey, but worth it! Very good sushi and atmosphere.
Sushi was wonderful and the service was attentive! They have an extensive specialty sushi menu with so many options.
Not worth the money that you will spend. Food is mediocre at best. Save yourself some money and go to tais Asian bistro instead!!!! You wont regret it.
Average to mediocre sushi rolls thats overpriced. Not sure if Id go back. Quality was fair but quantity for the price not!
Definitely one of the better sushi restaurants in town. Priced fairly well with good service.
Great and consistently good sushi. Easy going service. Love it!
Friend and I waited 45 minutes to be seated. 20 minutes being ignored at the bar. Walked out and left. I dont think they even noticed... Dont come here.
Staff wouldnt look you in the eye which I thought was odd. The sushi was nothing special and was over priced for what you got.
Best sushi in columbus hands down clean fresh good fish and great sushi construction
I lived in Japan for 4 years. I think the food is authentic. Good service. Can get a bit crowded.
Phenomenal quality takes time. Be prepared to wait but the wait is worth it. Nice sake selection as well
Sushi is always delicious and portions are good...well worth the money!
Average sushi, or slightly above average. Overall pretty tasty. Please add masago to the menu!!
Good Japanese and Korean food. Service was excellent and staff were friendly.
Good sushi but a limited beer selection and no draft.
I had great gyoza. Firecracker roll. Salmon roll. Samon roll was a touch salty. Everything was delicious.
Very good sushi... service can be slow, seating is limited.
Columbuss best sushi. Best quality of fish and most creative rolls!
Intimate space with creative and perfectly executed sushi with always the highest quality. Favorite sushi in the city.
Great service even when super busy, and excellent sushi! Looking forward to returning.
Good food, great staff and Delicious food! 👍
Pretty good sushi for downtown Columbus, and they have ume shiso (plum) rolls!
Even though we came close to closing time the staff was amazing and recommended a nice karaoke spot also!
My favorite sushi restaurant in Columbus! They have great menu items for takeout, lunch, and dinner.
Exceptional service and exceptional food. Beats most sushi places in central Ohio.
Awesome lunch. A tad expensive, but worth it. Left with a happy tummy.
Disappointed with the service. Denied us a table, sat us at the bar, then neglected to take our takeout order
Great veggie soup. The sushi is really good and the service very attentive.
Best sushi I had all year. Amazing!
Excellent place to eat a little hidden gem for sushi and great prices
The best sushi/Japanese food in Columbus.
Somewhat inconsistent... And they get kinda antsy before closing time which sort of changes from day to day... (As in if rather slow they may close earlier than said time).
Really good sushi and dessert! Very comfortable location.
Amazing sushi! Fresh, tasty, great roll selection.
Small, intimate, dark, very fresh and good quality food with great prices! Cozy.
Best Tilapia we have ever had! Awesome service too. A+++
Go before or after Blue Jackets Games, best sushi ever . Thanks Sam
Love this sushi place. Great prices and a great place to stop in for lunch.
Good food, good staff, fun little place thats easy to pass by (dont pass it by).
Pretty good sushi!
Fast service and huge amounts of sushi for great prices.
Food is good, but the staff is very stuffy and unfriendly.
Not enough staffs. An empty table needs 30 minutes to clean it. Wait one hour for an appetizers.
Apparently reservations are required now?! No mention their website that reservations are allowed or needed. We have been coming for Years. No more..
Good service and fresh sushi, what kore could you want
Nice little spot tucked away. Great sushi
Had a nice lunch with a friend; then ice cream at the North Market across the street.
Really good sushi, not great but really good
Small, almost home in the wallish restaurant with delicious food and friendly service.
Food is great, especially the lunchbox. Service is a bit slow.
Lots of options for sushi, chicken stone pot was yummy!
The rolls were great and very well priced.
Great service, delicious food and sake.
Good quality fish. Slow service. High prices for the market.
Best you are going to get in CBUS. There are a few others in Dublin area that compete.
I love this place, best sushi in downtown Columbus
Good sushi and great location downtown.
Very good, a little pricey but well worth the cost.

Top Columbus sushi joint. Rarely have to wait for a table.
The food was good and the service was solid.
The randomly close between hours 2-5 p.m. Very inconvenient not on Google business hours.

It doesnt make sense to go else where in Columbus for sushi
A little expensive but great sushi
Nice place, good sushi, small place

2022-03-15The sushi was very good, the fish quality is very good. Service was very bad though and is the one thing I hope they improve. Otherwise I would definitely come back again.I would recommend trying it out if u are in the mood for good sushi
Review №2
2022-06-05The best Miso soup weve had outside of California. The sushi was flavorful and the right bit size pieces. We asked for gluten free and they were able to meet our needs.Bottle of wines are reasonably priced.

2021-12-30First and only time I will eat here. I REALLY wanted to like this place, its been on my list of places to try for a while. To begin with it is quite overpriced for the portion sizes (see photo of the piece of salmon compared to my thumb, not even close in size and my hands are pretty small). The 2 pieces of Nigiri I got here equal the size of one piece from other sushi restaurants in Columbus and what I got here cost 2x as much. If you get the Nigiri be aware that they put Wasabi between the fish and the rice to hold it together (which was not mentioned on the menu or when ordering) so that completely ruined the taste for me. The roll I got said deep fried but only the fish in the roll was deep fried, that was not clear. Anywhere else I have gotten this roll, the whole roll has always been deep fried. And every question we asked the girl taking the order had no idea what the answer was (she was nice), so even trying to verify descriptions ect was difficult. Tobiko was ok, the quality of Salmon seemed ok but hard to tell bc of Wasabi, redsnapper in the roll was quite chewy. Last but not least only parking available is at a meter or a paid lot in front of North Market. So you are also going to pay for parking on top of the increased price of the food here.

2022-07-17Sushi was good but nothing that blew me away. idprobably eat here again but i wouldn’t go out of my way to choose this place again. i got the kooma roll + tuna nigiri and it was average. the miso soup alone is what made this a 4/5 rating (full star for the miso soup). service was quick and the staff was nice when picking up my to-go order.

2021-10-24Some of the best sushi I’ve had in a while! I would love to give this place five stars but my server was thee actual worst. She never asked me anything and for a hour she was literally on her phone speak aggressively. Really just bad service but great food! Also my drinks were make incorrectly.

2022-02-13Absolutely delicious. I go here all the time when Im in Columbus.
Review №7
2022-03-04Great sushi, but I felt under services. It was probably because it was kind of busy, but I had to ask for water after getting my food. Would go back still.
Review №8
2022-06-18This was the second time weve eaten at Kooma. It surprises me that such a good little sushi shop is hiding there beside a parking garage. Fresh ingredients, expertly prepared, and presented. So good. We even had someone with us that had never tried sushi and he enjoyed most of the rolls

2022-06-27Sushi’s always good- FYI they stopped doing Monday half off rolls apparently 6 weeks ago for take out or dine in even though their website says they still do it & “after July 30 half off will no longer me take out and dine in only”
