- Koi Palace is very busy and won’t seat us until most of our party has arrived, so please plan ahead and arrive on time to avoid delays.
- The restaurant accepts only one credit card per table, so if someone is comfortable paying the full bill on their card (perhaps to get points or cashback rewards), the rest of us can Venmo them our share. Otherwise, please bring small cash bills for an easy split.
At the end of the meal, we split the bill equally (historically around $30-40 per person), so come hungry to get your money’s worth! 🙂
