Nikko Japanese Restaurant and Sushi Bar has a high energy atmosphere with a contemporary style. We are known for inventive, excellent, award winning sushi as well as the finest modern Japanese cuisine. Nikko has the feel of a upscale New York city restaurant with the promise to be hot and sexy. We have an assortment of over 300 bottles of fine wines as well as a full service bar.

    The food here is really good but it is very loud. Also I made reservations for 7:30 and we still waited for almost an hour to be seated

    We enjoyed the food, which was fast and the drinks were perfect. Our reservation was earlier in the night and we enjoyed the transition to when the DJ arrived. Two things I did not like was that the waitresses were rushing us out, particularly because I was still working on my drink. They did pick up the pace for food but were a bit forgetful with sauce, utensils and a few other minor details. We had a group of 18 and they overall did a fantastic job. I just wished they had not rushed us, to the point where they mention another group coming and it was at least another hour for it. I could have ordered another couple drinks at the very least if it had not felt rushed. Overall great food and ambience. Everyone enjoyed themselves!

    Food was delicious, Service and ambiance very good but having a dj play loud music from 8 pm onwards with the Restaurant only half full was disturbing for conversation. Would recommend to go early if you want to chat and understand your company.

    We were seated 40 mins after the reservation and 90 mins later we only received 1/2 the order. Great vibe but they focus on large parties.
