This spot is in here only so you won't have to ask us via email any more. We hated this place so much we wanted to create a whole new category for this one because it doesn't belong in restaurants; more like "big ole messes that think attitude is part of dinner" - and you know, normally we can deal with 'tude! Koi is the perfect example of why New Yorkers don't like L.A. Once you get past the burly door guy whose job it is to manhandle you while keeping you from giving them money, brace yourself for giggling patrons who eat sushi off your plate (!), waiters who only care if you're a transplanted CAA agent, food that never arrives correctly or together, and music louder than it is at Marquee. Will you even notice whether the hamachi, toro or bass is good when it finally arrives? At the next table of course.
