Great sushi. Interior needs an update, the furniture seems dated; lighting is too bright (not a romantic spot, unless you want to hide in a booth). Booths are great though. Kid friendly; there is a corner with toys. A bit pricey for a place
that doesn't present as special. The food is above average however.
Best Japanese Anywhere. This restaurant has the freshest, and best sushi anywhere. Nothing comes close. If you are used to eating, and enjoy all-you-can-eat, or cheap sushi places, you will find Koko's expensive. If however you enjoy quality, this place is priced just right.
This restaurant has been around since 1982. It is where the Dynamite Roll and BC Roll originated from way back in the day. No one makes a Dynamite Roll that is even close. They use real crab meat in their California Roll, and their salmon is so fresh; never farmed like almost everywhere else.
Their customer base is probably 90% regulars. Everyone I have told about this place agrees there is nothing close. I have been eating here regularly (a few times a week) for 15 years. Seriously do yourself a favour and try this joint out.
For the best experience sit at the sushi bar and talk with Kuni (owner), who has a great repoir with everyone that enters his place. His wife and mom work here as well, as it truly is a family restaurant.
East Van Treasure. Koko has long been one of the best kept secrets in East Van. If you are a serious fan of Japanese food, this in one of the better places you'll find in the city
