The Scene
It's a small, crowded corner cafe with high ceilings, a handful of tables and a counter next to the window. The restaurant's backyard has tables for outdoor dining in warmer months. Above the friendly sushi chef, menu boards spell out your options--place your order and they'll call your name when it's ready.
The Food
The chicken teriyaki bowl--tender chicken and vegetables piled over rice--is the most popular menu item and is available in three sizes to satisfy any appetite. Katsu-don (breaded pork cutlet) is a flavorful medley of sprouts, onions, tofu, breaded pork cutlet, egg and seaweed strips served over rice in a sukiyaki sauce. Thick, round rice noodles, tofu and unexpected vegetables--like potatoes and broccoli--make the miso soup udon. The sushi selection is good with numerous rolls and nigiri, each one rolled as it is ordered. (Not served between 3pm and 6pm).

unlike the other places down town this place goes for quality rather than decor! Don't get me wrong, it's cute and quiet inside! The food was great! I got the Miso soup as everyone recommends! DELICIOUS! We also had 4 rolls for two of us, we each ended up with 5 pieces to go! good size rolls! The price is par with other places! I like how it's not crowded and fake and your food is ready in minutes! Can't wait to go back and try the teryaki bowls!

Pretty much all restaurants that claim to be Japanese are lying, they're mostly just sushi-bars. However, Koko Kitchen is one of the few restaurants in Salt Lake that offer a wide variety of Japanese homestyle cooking. I highly recommend the Chicken-Katsu bowl (breaded and fried chicken), and/or the Salmon Roll if you are on a budget.
