This is a great restaurant! Loved the service and how you can see your food being made by the fire. The steak was made to perfection and I loved the peppercorn sauce that came with it and love the chimichurri sauce that my server let me taste even more! The seared tuna was very good as well as an appetizer. I’m addicted!

I come to Niwa weekly and there’s a reason I always keep coming back! Joe, Steven, Alex and Angel are always wonderful and pay close attention to my allergies. The food is fantastic and not overpriced. Jimmy has stopped by my table a few times on separate occasions and is always an absolute gem to talk to. The food, staff and ambiance are 1000/10 and I will always recommend this place to everyone I know! If you can’t make up your mind when looking at the menu a few of my favorites are the filet, hanger steak, 44 farms short rib, pork jowl, zucchini, mushroom medley, ajitama eggs, wagyu deviled eggs and you can’t leave without getting a bag of the spicy OG Wagyu Boyz beef jerky, it is to die for!

The whiskey dinner at Maple Landing was remarkable in many ways. The whiskeys presented were introduced and explained by the provider. The quality was superb. The food was exceptional, always interesting and artistically presented. Again, explanations were provided with each course, regarding the unique ingredients and methods of preparation. I can't wait till their next whiskey dinner event. A real gourmet treat!
