Koni - Restaurante de Comida Japonesa

KONI is a popular fast food chain in South America, we have eaten in Buenos Aires and here in Copacabana. This location is near Copacabana beach in the busy Rua Constante Ramos. It’s a good place to rest your feet and grab a quick bite after basking in the sunny beach. It’s nearby a lot of other restaurants so your choices are abundant. Food is good and comes in appetizing presentation.

Good locate, but over price, the salmon come with spines so for tourists is better go somewhere else if you’re planing spend around 200 reales on food.

If you want to feel that you are annoying the staff, be yelled at from the kitchen and be treated like they are doing you a favor, this is the spot. Had to get the menu myself and the waitress rolled her eyes at me and seemed very annoyed to take the order. Waited there for 40 minutes and when I asked if it would take too long all they did was ask me again (yell from the kitchen) what was my order and then make it... had to wait 15 more minutes. It is a shame that the service is so poor cause the food is actually tasty and the location is very convenient. Really hope that this is not the experience for anyone else.

Highly recommend, great place to come get a quick bite to eat in Copacabana. Good service and price.

Food is okay. Our order came after 1 hour and there’s no one there but me and my wife. Don’t come here if you’re hungry unless willing to wait for hours!!

Read the reviews of bad service but decided to go anyway. I've been a Koni fan since 2010 and figured I'd give it a try again. For some reason it seems like this place lost its touch. The sushi was mediocre at best. The service in this location wasn't efficient at all. We only ordered 3 items but still took about 35 minutes to get them and about 45min-1hr to pay the bill after it was all said and done. Maybe they need to ramp up their staff or maybe they need a change of menu. I hope they do both because this place has loads of potential...

It was a very long wait so we decided to leave and not eat in. After an hour of waiting and reassuring us that our order was "prioritised", the order still wasn't being prepared when we checked at the kitchen. Upon confronting the waitress, instead of apologising, she justified the wait by saying that other customers who ordered after us got to have their food first because they had already eaten something before. Cannot comment on food quality since we didn't actually eat there.

Amazing dishes for super cheap! 18-24 reals
