Lovely little Japanese restaurant. Quality of the food was excellent, I especially enjoyed the soft shell crab Bao. Decent beer options available too, can't wait to visit again
Another great night at Koj. The food was absolutely wonderful, from prepartion to presentation, very plasing. Every course was fresh and we had amazing experience. Staff was outstanding. Thank you for great night.
Absolutely incredible food, and impeccable service. Andrew came to our table and offered us some whisky, as there was a tasting event upstairs. More importantly though, he came over and had a chat with us! Absolutely made the night for us. Would highly recommend going to Koj
Very nice and small restaurant but with great, attentive and friendly staff. Chef Koj is such a friendly person to chat with. Menu options are limited but great enough to satisfy your palette with a good flavour and presentation.
Vegetarian options can be more variety but the current selection are
A great shared dining experience, albeit a steep price for some smaller dishes. The bill came as a slight surprise as there were no prices indicated on the food menu.
We paid around £35 per person for 4 people, and shared most dishes between us.
Our favourites were the bao buns (mushroom, crab), te
No sushi!
Japanese cooking in small plates, always quality and interesting dishes on offer, great cocktails, and good friendly service.
Excellent food, excellent service. Highly recommend the crab bao. Staff were very helpful and prompt. Greatly enjoyed our meal here, although pudding felt a touch on the expensive side, even if it was very tasty.
Really fantastic food, and friendly and efficient staff who were very happy to help us figure out our order. The non-alcoholic cocktails were really nice, it's lovely to have interesting drinks options without alcohol! It's a very small restaurant and booking seems to be essential. Accessibility-wis
Good gosh I LOVE this place. Excellent bar staff, and every single thing on the menu (which changes frequently) is addictively good. Would order everything if possible
Excellent food and a more interesting menu than the usual Japanese restaurant options. Waiter was knowledgeable on ingredients. Interesting bottled beers available. Reasonable prices. The curry udon noodles are recommended!
Great atmosphere and food at this Japanese restaurant. I have only ever tried sushi so this restaurant has broadened my pallet. Funky decor and helpful staff. Worth booking in advance as not to many covers.
The best option in Cheltenham. You need to get over the interior, which is naff and feels a bit like an old tea room that has gone to a fancy dress as a Japanese restaurant. But you can do this because the food is good. The buns are light sweet and fluffy with plenty of filling and we loved all the
My wife and I have been to Koj a number of times - every meal is well prepared and presented, alongside an excellent selection of beers and cocktails. My particular favourite is the beef tataki - fantastic recipe, expertly executed.
A great find and will definitely return and recommend. Nice, intimate setting, interesting menu and taste sensations ( love the miso soup ). House red more than adequate. Staff friendly, knowledgeable and professional.
I just hope this 'one off' doesn't go down the route of franchising or multiple s
Fantastic food and friendly, helpful staff. A really nice atmosphere both in the restaurant and the upstairs bar. Definitely be booking a table here again the next time I'm in Cheltenham.
Great experience, warm welcome, a bit of chat from all the staff. Let the staff decide for us on the menu, great selection of an assortment of dishes. Lovely meal and Greta atmosphere.
You’ll probably need to book in advance, short notice has never worked for us as they are normally booked out.
