Koyo in Chiltern

Very pleasant to share this exchange with my friends and very tasty food

I had a take out of the Tuna Nigiri and I was impressed it was fresh and tasty. I would recommend, My only issue is that they don't serve takeaway past a certain time which is a bit odd.

We picked Koyo for our girls night out and had a great time. Koyo had a nice atmosphere and the staff were friendly and professional. Will took our order for drinks and food and was helpful when responding to our queries about the menu. I had the Teriyaki Chicken and rice bowl and it was filling, tasty and was good value for money. We were the last ones to leave but got no sense of being encouraged to leave. I will definitely be back :)

I tried to reserve a table mid-week for my wife and me. I called at around 5pm but was told no tables. Ok. Tried again several days later and told no tables. Strange. So, we wandered down around 8.45 and noticed the place was almost empty, only 2 tables occupied. We went inside and asked for a table for 2 only to be told "We are not seating anyone". I pointed out that the website said the restaurant was open until 11pm, and the guy told us: "Yes, the kitchen is open until 11pm, but only for those already seated, and we're not seating anyone". So of course I asked: "The kitchen is open until 11, it's 8.45 now, and you're almost empty - but you won't serve me and my wife?". To which he said "That's right, hope that's okay" accompanied with a sardonic smile. Well it wasn't. With that sort of commercial approach, amazed it's survived.

Great service and great knowledge of GF choices. Highly recommended.

impeccable service from Will and Eesha. food was delicious! will be back!

So excited to try this place and it did not disappoint! Food was outstanding, service was amazing and the place was a happy atmosphere. I would recommend you book though because it does get quite busy quite quick and I can see why. Will 100% be returning

Love it here! A firm favourite in Amersham. They have loads of options to cater for every taste/dietary requirement and so you can go even if you don’t like sushi- plenty of hot Japanese dishes. Love the vibes as well and the owner and waitresses are always lovely

We’ve just had an amazing dinner at the opening night of koyo Beaconsfield. Thanks and all the very best with the new location!

Came here for our anniversary and they stuck us by the door on two broken stools, I asked nicely to be moved as I suffer from Back problems and cannot sit for long (if at all) on those stools!….to be told no. We left very quickly won’t be back.

Great food served with care - cool restaurant and good value… soon to be seen in Beaconsfield- cant wait

Delicious sushi with very generous portions. Really pleased we discovered this place. Incidentally we were told you close 4-5pm when we tried calling, assumed you were closed then but it would be best to put this in Google business hours. Knocked off a star for service, called many, many times from 5pm to 5.20pm - when you were apparently open - and no one answered the phone. I was surprised at collection to find just 3 tables and about 6 members of staff standing around, not looking very busy. Terrible for business not to answer the phone... most people would have given up after the first few calls unanswered - we just really craved sushi. Owner was away apparently - felt very sorry for the owner, as they have a great product but staff that clearly don't care enough to pick up the phone.

My sister and I travelled all the way here for an early dinner (4pm) and it was closed, even though it was supposed to be open until 11pm on a Thursday. Maybe update your opening times.

Great service lovely food .the negative is ,, it’s a small place and the seats at the bar are a little uncomfortable but after 6 times in 2 years , can’t be that bad , the crispy tuna 🍣 roll dynamite , is to die for ,,, the poke bowl is HUGE, service was discreet when I was eating and entertaining when I was waiting , exactly how I like it , when I had company they were a little more reserved … perfect very professional .

Great sushi place with great service. Make sure to book since it gets busy.

We really enjoyed the sushumi, excellent Malbec wine, great service and atmosphere.

Great atmosphere, great staff and fantastic food! Best chicken wings I’ve ever had and amazing sushi. Can’t wait to go back

Fantastic meal and service. Thanks and look forward to the restaurant opening in Beaconsfield.

It's always such a wonderful dining experience! They definitely have the best sushi in Buckinghamshire. The personal service from the owner and his staff is outstanding. We absolutely love Koyo and can't wait to be back. Thank you!

Absolutely love Koyo, always go when I'm in the area and never disappointed by service or food

Koyo Amersham is a delightful dining experience that truly satisfies the palate with its exquisite Japanese cuisine. The ambiance is serene and inviting, making it a perfect spot for both intimate dinners and small group gatherings. The service is impeccable, with attentive staff who ensure your meal is enjoyable from start to finish. Highly recommended for anyone looking to indulge in authentic flavors and top-notch hospitality!

We visit this jewel of a Japanese restaurant every week. The food is of exceptional quality, the service is friendly and fast, and the value for money is unbelievably good. There is a reason why celebrity chefs are seen dining here.

Fantastic Restaurant what a success since opening. One of my favourite that has opened in Amersham since I have been here. Sara is a fantastic waitress who deserves huge credit for doing an incredible job. A friendly, talkative, and just all round superb waitress providing 10/10 customer service. Deserves all the credit she gets and more. Would recommend to anyone!

Food was gorgeous, just like our waitress. Sara I think her name was, she gave us a five star service hence the rating. Will be dining here again 🍷

The staff are all wonderful, warm and knowledgeable. They make their own katsu sauce! The veggie/vegan urumaki was surprisingly good. The tofu katsu was unusual in that it used silken rather than firm tofu and was without a crispy crumb. So I think it lacked different textures. It came with a few salad leaves that were dressed and nothing else. Despite stating I was vegan when ordering, the dressing wasn't vegan. I spotted this and brought it to their attention, so that was a little disappointing. I think the atmosphere and service were great so I would be open to going back for drinks and vegan sushi but probably not hot food.

Great place to come for lunch or dinner. It’s quite a small/intimate place so booking is advised. The food is served fresh and is delicious. Chicken teriyaki skewers are definitely recommended. The service is always great and with a smile. Plenty of car parking outside on the road.

Amazing sushi, with so much variety! The owner and staff are super nice and friendly. Great atmosphere and overall experience.

Excellent service, Calming atmosphere, and perfect food. This is the best place for anyone who loves or enjoys sushi.

Excellent food and a really nice helpful team! Reasonably priced too!

We tried the sushi and a hot dish and it was absolutely delicious! 🍣 really really good! Make sure you book in advance.

Fantastic food and all staff are exceptionally nice. Highly recommended the katsu curry, edamame and mochi.

I visited Koyo sushi in Amersham today with 3 friends and I had a great experience. the service was great, our waiter Will catered to all of our needs and was very friendly. the food was fantastic, the sushi was incredibly fresh and fairly priced. I will be visiting again soon and would definitely recommend!

Having found myself in Amersham with time enough for a meal, I popped into Koyo which was nearby. This was a great decision, with a friendly and professional front of house team, and excellent food - great range and quality. Although I was on my own this time, I plan to come back with friends to enjoy a sushi platter

Great place - just what Amersham needed

I've been there twice now and ended up with food poisoning. Last time I had a crab uromaki and clearly they either don't serve fresh food or are not hygienic when making it. There are more reliable and tasty places.

Outstanding! Lovely food and compelled to leave a review for the masterclass in exceptional customer service. Alex and Max could not have done more for us, and took every conceivable measure to provision for our accessibility needs and ensure we had a great meal. So glad to have found this lovely restaurant and enjoy some tasty sushi, with a great vibe. Highly recommend!

Delicious food in a relaxed setting. Lovely staff. Highly recommend

Wow.. what a fantastic experience - definately worth a visit 😀 Amazing food. Efficient, knowledgeable and friendly service. Thanks to Alex and his team for a thoroughly enjoyable feast 🙏 will see you soon!

Great food, atmosphere and customer service

great food, had an amazing time, and amazing service ♡

Had a lovely meal at Koyo with my adult son for his birthday. We needed reassurance regarding my son’s nut allergy but nothing was too much trouble. Plenty of vegetarian options for me too. The food looked and tasted amazing. Highly recommended.

Amazing sushi place un Amersham. Looking forward to Beaconsfield opening

The sushi here is wonderful, as is everything else we've had. The staff are always lovely, the atmosphere is very nice. Can't recommend highly enough.

Great food, very impressed with the reasonable prices. Attentive staff and friendly.

The best Japanese in the UK! The service is fantastic, the food is amazing and the owner is genuinely so lovely! They also do great Japanese beers

Brilliant. Fantastic sushi, very generous portions! Update Dec 2023. Still amazing!!!

Lovely environment, personable and attentive staff, excellent quality food. Highly recommended.

As soon as I knew my son was coming for Christmas I booked Koyo as it is a small restaurant (fewer than 40 covers) and I did not want to miss out on getting a table on the Saturday before Christmas. Consequently, I had been looking forward to it for months and it did not disappoint. As there were only two of us, we ate at the bar initially (understandably, they cannot commit a booth for six persons for just two people on a busy night) but as soon as a booth became free, they offered it to us, so we had the remainder of our meal there. Eating at the bar is nice too, though, as the staff have a chat with you and it is very sociable. It is a very friendly restaurant with a really nice, relaxed atmosphere and the owner is always very welcoming (as are the staff generally). The food was absolutely superb (as always) and service was fast and efficient without feeling rushed. The tuna dynamite roll was a revelation and is a new favourite for us. Koyo is my favourite restaurant in the area and there is nothing I can fault about it. It always delivers on taste and quality, the prices are very reasonable and it has a lovely relaxed vibe. I love this place and it is always my first choice. Dining here is always a pleasure. I look forward to my next meal at Koyo.

Very high standard fare, nice decor … great slick service

Had a great evening celebrating a birthday at Koyo. The food was great, we especially enjoyed the sushi. A really nice intimate atmosphere and loved the design of the bar. We was pleasantly surprised at the portion sizes of all the food and the the quality and taste. The staff were great at making us feel welcome with recommendations and checking on us. The plum wine and Monsuta were great drinks recommendations. Would highly recommend and we will definitely be back soon.

Lovely food well presented and very tasty. Staff very attentive. Pleasant atmosphere, relaxed, peaceful.

Lovely customer service, fresh and delicious food, great prices, highly recommended x

Excellent service and the food was lovely just a bit pricey for what you get

Wonderful Sushi and great service. Already looking forward to going again.

Lovely little restaurant. Great atmosphere, welcoming and super friendly staff! If you book for 2 you’ll most likely be seated on the high bar stools, not a table.

Visited here yesterday with my husband to celebrate our 5th wedding anniversary. The staff are incredibly pleasant, patient and attentive. We ordered the Zen sushi plate, a salmon poke bowl and salmon teriyaki. It was absolutely delish. The green tea went well with the meal too. Atmosphere is cosy and the music is just perfect. Not too expensive or too cheap - quite affordable! We will be back again soon!

Delicious food, excellent service, great, attentive owner, always met with a smile. A lovely local place.

Great food, friendly service and reasonably priced. I would recommend this to all visitors and residents of Amersham!

Friendly staff, busy atmosphere, reasonable choice - mainly sushi but also 'street food'. Booking recommended .

Great atmosphere, service and nice food and drink choices.

Been a few times now for lunch and dinner and never disappoints! Really affordable, fantastic service and great quality food 👍🏻

Great little / local restaurant, fresh food, friendly staff, never disappointed. A great addition to the top town in Amersham

Lovely place for lunch in Amersham. I always enjoy the food and atmosphere from a friendly team and good tunes.

Great food, great service. Love this place. We go regularly and it never disappoints. The food is always top quality and the service is always excellent.

I brought my dad here for a delayed Father’s Day lunch (as they’re not open on Sundays) and we had such a nice meal. Team were friendly and attentive and the food tasted super fresh and delicious. Possibly a younger persons place than my 86yo dad who struggled a bit with the lack of cushions on the benches and loud music but definitely would return here. Great quality Japanese. Just wish you were open on Sundays!

Lovely restaurant with good selections of food and drinks. We came here for lunch on a Saturday just past noon and it’s already busy with a few tables. Note to self - reserve a table next time for weekends! We ordered some imported Japanese beer not commonly found in other restaurants and were pleasantly surprised. Delicious food too, good portions and really filled us up.

Our first time here, it is a really charming little spot. The service is warm and inviting and the food is top notch. Exceptional value dite this type of cuisine.

Family friendly, good service and good food.

Good service and a nice atmosphere. Most of the food was good, but nothing amazing and knocking a star as we really did not like fishiness of the octopus balls.

Delicious food, good service - lovely find locally for Japanese food!

Fabulous meal with our family to celebrate my husbands birthday we chose a range of dishes will definitely be returning soon.

Really great little sushi restaurant. We have eaten here a couple of times and on both occasions the food and service has been brilliant. There is always a great atmosphere within the restaurant too. Thanks for another great meal.

Random pop in Aiden and I loved the sushi,.little on thr expensive side.. but then it was in Amersham so lovely area. Would definitely go again.

Delicious Japanese food! Really fresh, quality ingredients and a great spot for dinner! Already thinking about when I can go back!

Great range of fresh, delicious sushi at super reasonable prices. Koyo has been such a good addition to the area! Small, cute decor and a friendly relaxed vibe. Nice to eat in the booths as a group or at the bar if two of you. Take out also great.

Have been to Koyo several times, all with a warm welcome. Amazingly priced for the large portions that you get. The atmosphere here is nice, with some family booths and a bar.

Amazing food, great atmosphere and friendly staff. After just a couple of visits Koyo has become my favourite place to eat in Amersham. Everything is authentically Japanese and the food is completely amazing. Fantastic selection of drinks and I would highly recommend the imported Japanese beers which really are a cut above. Booking is likely essential if you want to sit in a booth but eating at the bar is tremendously fun too.

Food is tasty, nothing special but not bad. Quite cheap.

I had sushi in different places before and this is so far the best compare to the others. The food is so tasty and service is excellent and friendly. I would go back again even it is not in my local.

Well prepared and presented Sushi. Really tasty. Not super high end but everything done well. Would recommend.

The best Japanese food I've had in England!! Cool, trendy vibe and friendly service 👍😎 Highly recommend to all.

A Spontanious choice, but instead got blown away on a thursday night. Food for the soul, amazing vibe and my kids loved it. The food is excellent. The Sushi is 5* and OooH the Prawns are Gangsta

I am frequent customer of lunchtime takeaway from Koyo but hadn’t eaten in for a while. I did that last night with friends and had a lovely evening. The staff are friendly and attentive and the restaurant has a really nice buzz about it. The food is nutritious, tasty and good value. Thanks to Alex and team for bringing this unique restaurant to Amersham.

Great sushi and very generous portions at good value

There aren't many decent evening restaurants in Amersham on the Hill and this is def the best. Food is excellent, fresh and the service is quick and friendly. Beef Tataki or the Salmon Poke Bowl are stand out dishes, but nothing disappoints.

Fantastic little sushi place with booths and bar dining. Food is consistently good and very friendly staff.

I'm a massive sushi fan and I have to say, not only are the staff beyond lovely but I had the most incredible sushi here. Highly recommend the Oh My Veggie platter. Will certainly be coming again tomorrow before I head home. Stunning

Amazing food, great price, brilliant venue

Koyo has quickly become my favourite restaurant due to the welcoming service of staff and delicious sushi. When I went for my birthday, my whole family were thrilled with the food and kept ordering more. We all left with a smile on our face from the amazing atmosphere created in Koyo!

What an amazing little place! The staff are so welcoming and friendly and the food is excellent! 10/10 highly recommend!

Incredibly tasty sushi with a good range of drinks to accompany, alex the owner and the rest of the staff are top notch. The decor is perfect as well, can't recommend enough!

Dear Alex and team What a find so close to home. So Tokyo vibes. I would recommend to everyone. Thank you for a wonderful evening. Love Sarah, Hugo, Erin and Rupert 🖤

The restaurant is conveniently placed, and the food is made excellently. The staff is excellent. Call in advance to confirm the working hours and space availability. The closest parking spot is on High Street and is free for up to an hour; otherwise, you must pay to park behind High Street. There is no menu for children

Incredible fresh Japanese food and different from anything else in Amersham! Great options on the menu and really friendly staff. A great place to eat

Had a great experience from booking to bill tonight. Called to book for me and my daughters, helpful on the phone and I then emailed to confirm and got a friendly confirmation email reply. When we arrived we were greeted by name and shown to our table, really friendly helpful service. Food was fantastic and we grazed on various dishes over the 2 hour 15 minutes we were there, nothing was too much trouble. Will recommend and will be back👍🏻

Lovely little Japanese restaurant, very friendly staff, amazing food, great atmosphere! Popped in while visiting Amersham with no expectations and we'll be definitely coming back for the fantastic food and service!

Amazing atmosphere. Hidden gem in Amersham.

Favourite place for date night, never had a bad experience/ meal always really good

Great food and friendly owner. Recommend.

Just had a wonderful vegan/vegetarian lunch here. The tofu katsu, vegetable noodles and Oh My Veggies sushi/gyoza combo were all totally delicious, and our kids absolutely loved it. The staff were super helpful and welcoming. Amersham is lucky to have this place! Awesome :)
