After a day of Neapolitan pizza, a traveller may want sushi without leaving the city centre. On Via Monteoliveto and Corso Umberto I, Koi Sushi and Nara Sushi offer all-you-can-eat menus with dishes brought to the table after ordering. One point is worth clearing up first: neither operates as a self-service buffet. At Koi, guests order through staff; Nara uses tablets and prepares dishes after each request. This format lets diners sample a broad menu at a set price, but the real cost depends on the sitting, extras and rules for the whole table.
Koi lists lunch at €19 on weekdays and €20 at weekends and on public holidays; dinner costs €28 and €29. Nara charges €19.90 for lunch and €29.90 for dinner every day. Koi does not publish the full list of dishes included online and says the lunch and dinner selections differ; Nara also changes its menus and adds a €2 cover charge. At both restaurants, drinks and items outside the unlimited menu cost extra, and uneaten food is charged. If you want to keep the bill down, Koi has a slightly lower starting price; add the cover charge, a drink and any dishes outside the set menu before deciding.
Koi reviews often praise the atmosphere, range and service from some staff, but other diners criticise consistency and order handling. At Nara, comments praise tablet ordering and the number of choices, while views on service and value are less consistent; Tripadvisor is notably more critical than Google. That difference matters if service is as important to you as the food. At either place, book at busy times, ask what is included in the sitting you choose and order in moderate rounds. This can help you avoid waste charges and check promptly if a dish has not arrived. Ratings reflect the overall review record, not a promise about your next meal.
Both restaurants are central, within reasonable walking distance of Università station on Metro Line 1 and routes through Via Toledo and the old town; check a map for the walk from your hotel. Koi is at Via Monteoliveto 35 and Nara at Corso Umberto I 9. Both official websites accept bookings and publish their rules, but detailed sittings may change, so confirm when reserving. Koi has the lower advertised starting price, while Nara makes tablet ordering explicit. The better choice depends on the menu you want and the final bill, not only on the words “all you can eat”.
