Social Profile:

KOYO was born from our sister restaurant NAMA, but is a completely different concept offering guests a truly exquisite menu. The term KOYO means to elevate. Our chef’s curated an elevated menu utilizing the freshest ingredients and designed a menu in true Omakase style. Omakase means “chef’s choice” so when dining with us you can select the 4-course chef featured menu or dine from our KORÉ NI SHI-MASU menu or “I’ll choose this one”. Elevated. Unique. Dining. See you for dinner.

Koyo Knoxville was absolutely fantastic! The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. The food was LITERALLY out of this this world good! We had the tangy and rich crispy pork belly, sweet and fatty king salmon, and buttery Chilean sea bass! Paired with a top notch wine selection and cocktail menu. Even got to try an new sake. A great experience overall!

We had the pleasure of visiting Koyo for the first time. I think the sampling menu is the best route if you are hungry. We ended up doing individual dishes + drinks. I would give the atmosphere a 5- quaint, romantic, warm. Drinks also get a 5- tasty, reasonably priced, creative. Food is a 4 star- a few dishes lacked high flavor profiles but were still tasteful. Felt like the dishes were not 100% complete as far as seasoning. I highly recommend the sea bass dish with the butter sauce. Will definitely be back for drinks!

This was a great experience, the venue was elegant and cozy. The service was amazing and the food Heavenly. I would highly recommend for a date night. The atmosphere was very mellow and Grayson was the most amazing server and very knowledgeable of the menu and all the staff was very friendly and welcoming.

This place is not just dinner it is an experience, and we enjoyed every plate! We are already talking about what we will order next time we go! We recommend the Omakase with the sake and wine tasting to pair with it!

We really enjoyed our visit to Koyo. My wife and I both had the tasting menu with the wine paring and it was excellent. It was unlike almost anything else you’ll find in Knoxville and much more similar to fine dining restaurants that you’d find in bigger cities. The dishes and flavors were creative and incredibly tasty (especially the short rib and shrimp). The service was attentive but not over the top or bothersome. There’s no sommelier but honestly, this isn’t the kind of place where I’m looking for one and the wine pairing was great, regardless. The only real knock I have is that the pacing was a little rushed. The second that we finished a dish the next one was already coming out. It would be alright if they took a little time in between courses. Thanks for an awesome dinner Koyo!

My Wife and I have been here four or five times and we always order the same thing – the Omakase. It’s so good we won’t get anything else there. Omakase is a Japanese phrase that means I’ll leave it up to you. All of the courses have been different every time but one thing is constant and that’s the A5 Waygu which is always one of the courses Each course is like having a food present brought to the table. The Waygu is always plated/paired different each time. It’s on the higher end of the price scale at over $100 per person throw in a couple of cocktails the bill can get pretty high. It’s a great lace to go eat and just relax.

Wow! I was blown away after my experience at Koyo. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance and service was fantastic.We enjoyed the crispy pork belly, the mushroom crispy rice, scallops and shrimp, and jumbo prawns. It was unlike anything else in Knoxville. If you’re looking for a real treat or somewhere to celebrate a special occasion- KOYO is the place!

Absolutely wonderful. One of the finest meals I have ever had. A little on the expensive side (for the omakase). But still very worth it. The servers were excellent, I cant think of one thing I would want different.

An entirely new level for Knoxville in regards to a foodie
Experience. My first bite, of the four course meal, a sweet pea, wasabi quiche with delicate greens was so fresh and loaded with flavor, it literally, tasted like spring. The only word I can find to truly describe what was going on. The portions sizes are perfect. Big enough to experience it all yet small enough to where you can slow down and cherish each bite and fully taste the background of each dish. Between two people, a shared four course along with two shared tapas style options from the menu was ample food. We couldn’t finish it all. The presentation was beautiful, almost too pretty to eat. Excellent wines and bar options. Intimate setting. Excellent service. A wonderful experience overall. My new favorite. Well done Koyo!!!!

Amazing food and fantastic service! Me and my partner went for lunch and dinner, and it was lovely! The food was so so so good, and their alcohaloic drink menu is impressive! If you are not interested in something with alcohol in it, ask about their teas and other beverages, because they have good options, but there are not the menu. The waiters are very personable, the scenery is beautiful, and the decor is amazing! And the food is outstanding! Did I mention the food os great?
