Had an amazing time dining here! From the moment we sat down, Kelly made the whole experience feel welcoming and effortless. She was super friendly, really knew the menu, and gave great recommendations. You can tell she genuinely cares about making sure guests have a great time. Made Mom’s birthday extra special. Now, the food – wow. Everything we tried was delicious, but the standouts were definitely the Wagyu Rib Eye and the Dry Aged Wagyu. Both were incredibly flavorful, tender, and cooked to perfection. You can really taste the quality in every bite. Honestly, some of the best steak I’ve had in a long time. Between the top-notch service and the amazing food, this place is a total win. Highly recommend checking it out if you’re into high-quality cuts and great vibes. Will 100% be back!

Our server Ming was exceptional. A person in our party has serious peanut allergy. Due to potential cross contamination, we requested the stove be changed extremely frequently. It was done with a smile every time.

Niku X was truly exceptional! The service was outstanding; our waitstaff were incredibly kind and attentive, which makes sense given their Michelin star. Every dish we tried was a delight, especially the waygu tenderloin, which was both tender and flavorful. I also loved the oxtail pot stickers, served with a zesty wasabi sauce and mandarin orange. The waygu sushi topped with caviar was another highlight, along with the lobster tails and stuffed crab. It was definitely worth every penny, and I can't wait to go back!

We thought this was gonna be $100 per person which was already pretty steep ended up being $140 per person and the food was just OK. I think this got hyped up on Instagram. Kind of a one and done experience. Our waitress was super nice. But probably not something we would do again.
