Moderately priced, great tasting sushi. Drinks are amazing here! And there are half-off bottles of wine on Wednesdays!
We have recently moved from the Chicago area and we have been desperate to find a good sushi place since leaving. We have not had a lot of time to venture out and my husband's coworker suggested this place. This visit was to be a nice gesture on my husband's behalf to introduce me to a small snippet of what Indiana has to offer in the dining scene.
Kona was AMAZING! We had a party of 18 to come in and celebrate our small wedding, Mandy took our reservation for 7pm. We arrived a little early but were immediately seated in the party room in the back that was already set with waters available for everyone and boosters, high-chairs and a basket for a car seat for all the kids. Mel was our server and she did PHENOMENAL!! She was fast, friendly, kept everyone's drinks full, keep the night moving along, even offered to get the kids food going first so they could get to eating. Due to her diligence with the management team as wel she was able to provide an AMAZING surprise for us as a newlywed couple and the whole table. I will absolutely return to Kona Grill, and will recommend to anyone. The service was great, and the food was outstanding! It came out quick, everything was cooked to perfection. My new husband loves nothing more that a medium-RARE steak and made multiple comments about how well his was cooked.
After seeing several table tops of three that arrived after us being sat before us (yes I know three is more than two, but even basic tables can seat up to 4 and should be first come first served) we had enough.
It was a great experience and the whole team at Kona killed it!!
My husband has worked the gamut of food service jobs and managed in fine dining so I know the difference between a poorly and well run establishment and this has to be the former.
Great place to eat. Expect to pay a lot here but the service and food quality reflects that. My husband is a burger guy and said the burger was good but not necessarily something that one should spend 14 dollars on. The staff were attentive and made the experience great.
We wanted good fresh sushi. We found it this evening. Thank you. Service was on point. Everything we were looking for.
First impressions mean a lot as far as gaining new customers. In this instance I must say I was sadly let down.
We are debating on ever trying again.
My poor husband profusely apologized as we left and now he felt he had to scramble to find a suitable substitution to salvage our first date night in Indy. We had to drive all the way back home to dine at a local spot that he was aware of who's food we sadly discovered, was marginally acceptable, but the place had far better and prompt service than we found at kona.
We traveled almost 20min and had our phone # entered to wait for a table. We were told 30 min initially so we wandered about and waited. We returned and inquired again and was told 10-15 more minutes...., when that passed we inquired again....
