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!

We were early for our reservation but they sat us right away, the service was excellent and the cook was excellent in his presentation and cooking. We had been to several hibachi restaurants but this one provided rice and noodles added to shrimp, vegetables, soup and salad with your selected meat. Great experience our first time at this restaurant and we would definitely go back.
