Kokyu was really good and better than we expected. Each of our meals were delicious. I had the bahn mi sandwich and it was stuffed, which was great. Two of the other orders included the fried chicken and rice and the fourth order was the pork belly tacos. Everything was prepared just the way we wanted. The place itself is clean and nice and there are two sections once inside. One more of a front counter area and the other for formal seating. They had nice art around the place and overall a pretty good vibe. The service was great, and we didn’t expect to be greeted the second we walked in. Over the top service and then they checked on us a few times to make sure everything was OK. Overall, two thumbs up and a recommendation.

Excellent Sandwiches- I had spicy cod one but rest of the group had pork belly or pork belly bowl. Very clean and spacious. Enjoyed our late lunch

Really solid place. The baht mi and brisket nachos were incredible. Service is really friendly and they seem like they truly appreciate the customers. A few areas to improve: 1) i couldn't find the hours or address on the website. 2) prices are steep. It's somewhat justifiable for the more unique dishes, but i just can't pay $8 for an order of fries. 3) some more shade outside would be nice. It was pretty hot out there in the direct sun w/ no umbrellas, and summer is around the corner. nachos pictured.

Amazing fusion food! Creative menu blending Asian, Latin, and American cuisines beautifully. My son and I ordered a baht mi sandwich, fish taco, and their special fries, loved all of them. The baht mi with korean beef short rib was crunchy, juicy and packed with bold flavor. Fish tacos with pickle slaw were zesty and crispy. Ko'Jangles fries and their house made dipping sauce are incredible. Friendly staff and great service! Must try if you live nearby or visiting the area like us.

Oasis in the woods! Had hella satisfying juicy burnt end brisket nachos and sweet corn! Also snagged a bite of the banh mi. The bread was perfect, light and flaky! My friends food had already come out by the time I decided, there were so many good choices. Next time I’m bringing a big group so I can try everything!

Can’t believe I’ve yet to review this place as it isn’t my first time coming. Food was stellar, as always, but the Treetop Deck ambiance is *chef’s kiss*… well worth the wait!!!!

Shout out to the entire team—but especially to Valentine. Every time we place a takeout order, he’s waiting outside with the food in hand, ready by your car before you even step out. Today we dined in, and Valentine greeted us at the door, seated us, and answered all of our questions with professionalism and kindness. Throughout our visit, I noticed he was constantly staying busy—filling water cups, taking out the trash when it was full, clearing tables, assisting guests who needed high chairs, and ensuring takeout orders were handled promptly. He truly goes above and beyond. If I owned a restaurant, I’d do everything I could to keep someone like him on the team—he absolutely deserves a raise. The food is always fresh and delicious, and I love that the menu includes a photo of every item. It’s an amazing restaurant overall. My only suggestion: please consider adding a baby changing table in the restroom.
