   Excellent interaction from staff, knowledgeable and able to assist and answer every question. Manager dropped by as well, which was appreciated. Our waiter was exceptional with his knowledge of the menu and the wine list. This was our anniversary celebration, traveled from Australia and we were not disappointed. Thank you Niku team!

   Very friendly staff, felt welcomed. Chicory salad was very fresh and tasty, oysters were good, and the pig ears were outstanding - crisp, tasty, and satisfying. The Wagyu filet mignon was excellent, aged NY strip was somewhat on the dry side. They have a full bar and the martini was excellent. The service was attentive, friendly, and professional. It did take a long time for the main course to arrive, though. The steaks could have used a sauce at least on the side. Overall, an excellent steak house.

   I chose this restaurant for my husband’s birthday celebration due to a friends recommendation. From the moment we walked thru that giant golden brass door we were transported to a SUBLIME experience. I don’t even want to describe all the amazing things because the element of surprise is so important here - the service was exceptional, the food was SPECTACULAR - please try the oysters and the bone marrow!! OMG! And then the steaks but there are little surprises in the presentations and the “ tools” - you”ll see what I mean when you go- and please go here at least once in your lifetime! You will NEVER REGRET IT!!

   Always superb service at Niku. We’ve visited a few times and we try to order something different. Everything we’ve had has been delicious.

   This was the worst restaurant we have ever been to. We got there before our reservation and waited 30 min to sit down - waited at the bar that was ‘closed’ and barely got any service. Sat down and waited another 15 min for a server to even come. Ordered all of our food and about an hour later got the bread and a salad. The 2 items we got were terrible and the service was atrocious- I don’t know how this has a Michelin star. We left before the rest of our food was there and thankfully the manager comped the meal but would steer everyone clear of this place.

   This was our second time eating here and again it was great! The food felt unique, made with care and was delicious. The service was great. We’re not big steak people so we like to order a bunch of starters and sides and get a 6oz steak. I recommend this for anyone else who is not big on steak as the sides and starters are very unique and 6oz split between two people is a good portion, the steak is very tender and delicious, again we’re just not big on steak

   It all went well until they rushed us to leave since they had “another reservation” waiting on the table. No one at the entrance waiting while empty tables were available. I still had not finished my wine and it just ruined the experience.
