   We usually go on Tuesdays or meet day on the 29th, but we decided to go for a date night supper as we had friends in from out of town. We ordered our favorite meats hanger steak smoked fillet miso skirt, short rib and shrimp. The filet mignon was so delicious and buttery by itself, but we usually love dipping them in the three sauce’s. This was the first time we got the pickled cucumbers as an appetizer, but they were a delicious palate cleanser, especially after eating the kimchi, which is spicy, another favorite of ours. And when you’re here you definitely have to start off with an order of deviled eggs as an appetizer. Coming from someone who’s been here on average, at least once a month for the last two years, definitely when you order your meat, make sure to order a side of salt and pepper, because we love to further season our meat, and also be sure to order a side of tongue sauce basically just sesame oil salt, pepper, and scallions mixed up but also a delicious side to dip your meat into!

   It was date night for my wife and I and decided to try something new. Cooking food in a restaurant setting and our server Alejandro made our first time experience great. We had Karaage (Japanese fried chicken) and deviled eggs for starters which were very tasty. For our meats we had chicken thigh, shrimp, filet mignon, short ribs and Berkshire pork sausage and our vegetables were zucchini, asparagus, rice, onions & peppers. Everything was well seasoned and absolutely delicious and we had more than enough. We also had The Hummingbird and The Yukarita to drink and they were delicious also. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone and look forward to visiting again.

   We love Niwa and visit very often but it wasn’t awesome last night. The grill wasn’t hot enough so beef wasn’t taste perfect and quality of meat weren’t usual. So, we didn’t send much last night. I hope the Grill gets hot next time.

    Went for happy hour on a Tuesday, and had one of the best dining experiences we've ever had in Deep Ellum. Service was incredible, food was fantastic, and the ambiance was perfect. We already can't wait to go back!

    First time here and first time doing Korean bbq. We absolutely loved it. It is a great date place. We had an amazing, Knowledgeable waiter and unfortunately I can’t remember his name. The food was delicious and all of the meat was very tender. We will definitely come back.

    I went to one of these in Japan and wanted to take my wife for the experience. We loved Niwa! It was every bit as good as the one I went to in Japan. We want to come back with a larger group.

    Great food, service, and value. Do some advance reading on how to cook specific cuts. Quite loud inside, so either practice lip-reading skills or get sake-bombed and stare at one another.

    I’ve been bringing my 5 year old daughter here every time we visit Dallas for the past 2 years. It’s been a great experience for us both! All of the staff have been very nice and accommodating. We’ve had the same server Jason every time by chance. He remembered us from our last visit with months in between, which I really appreciate! Jason has been great to us every time! I plan to keep the tradition going with our every visit to Dallas!

    This place has gone down hill since we started coming here years ago. My experience last night was absolutely terrible. I reserved a table and when I arrived in time for my reservation we had to wait another 15 minutes. After being seated they put us to a table near by that was extremely loud I could not hear the conversation at my own table. After another 15 minutes when the server came by for the first time. I asked him if he can kindly ask for them to tone it down a bit so we can enioy ourselves and he said he can't. They did not turn the burner on and had to remind the server multiple times about stuff we order that wasn't brought to us. We use to come here at least once a month but after last night I don't think we will ever go back.
