    Overall, we had a good dinner, celebrating my sister's birthday. I made the reservation 2 months ago, and the menu and the price had changed since when I made the reservation. Meat items like the ribeye were removed from the $99 menu, and the weekend price is now $109. Oysters and scallops are not on the menu, and they ran out of sea bass, which made this less of an experience than what we had anticipated. All the items presented were of high quality, and the staff are very friendly.

    Ask to be sat in Joe’s section so you can experience the “Joemakase”. He took such amazing care of us and we got to try all the best dishes which he selected for us. Definitely splurge for the higher end option. The quality is so much better and worth it for the premium Wagyu cuts.

    The entire aged tomahawk experience was absolutely fantastic. And to top it off, we had Jerry who went above and beyond. He definitely made it memorable for us. .. Thinking of coming back with friends next time so they can also try the amazing tomahawk and the sea bass that captured our hearts.

    This place has gone downhill in terms of their food. On my visit, there wasn’t any oysters or scallops like before. The lobster tails were not self serve, rather you had to order it. Service was very spotty. And the men’s restroom was full of trash and dirty. The meat was good, but crab legs, both snow and Alaskan, tasted old. For the price point and for being part of the chubby group, I expected better.

    Food was mediocre. For what we paid, $109pp, quality of the wagyu and seafood were subpar and definitely not worth the hype nor the price. There were only two three items for dessert. One was greasy donuts that they called begniet and other two were jello/mousse dessert that were the made out of whipped cream and flaky jello. Service was really good. That was the only best thing about Niku X.
