Restaurant owner Sinta Tjahjadi opened the location of Koi Express after another of her concepts, The Saucy Crab, closed at the end of 2023 after about two years . Both restaurants were in a former Texas Roadhouse location that closed when the restaurant moved across Richmond Road.
Tjahjadi did not respond to a request for comment on why Koi Express closed.
A sign posted on the door said, “We are deeply grateful for your support and patronage. Thank you for being a part of our journey. With gratitude, Koi Express.”
