Although KoFusion serves a variety of great food, much of the CU community seeks out its sushi menu. KoFusion, voted CU’s best place to get sushi, is located at 1 E. Main St. in downtown Champaign and makes for a memorable sushi experience. The main floor of the restaurant houses a vibrantly colored fish tank, whose blue neon lights reflect off the black surfaces of the dining floor. The artsy decoration is a great complement to the aesthetic presentation of the sushi rolls. However, the taste alone captures one’s attention most.

There are a few reasons why KoFusion was voted the No. 1 sushi place in CU. Manager Nigel Morgan explained, “We have a very high-quality product.”

Sushi fans know the fresher the ingredients, the softer textured and better tasting the roll. When asked what makes KoFusion’s menu special, Morgan said, “We probably have some of the standard, but certainly we do some rolls I doubt you’ll see on most sushi menus.”

This is particularly true of the rolls featured at KoFusion’s popular $1 sushi nights. Morgan said, “Some of them are just run during $1 sushi, and they change.”

So whether you are a connoisseur of sushi or happen to be a first-timer, KoFusion offers an array of special rolls waiting to please your senses and keep you coming back for more.
