Friday first for us. First the place was really clean and colorful with comfortable seating creating a very enjoyable atmosphere. Our server was super friendly however he was not knowledge on everything with the menu. We ordered the NIJI Peach cocktail and Plum Wine The Plum wine was deliciously sweet and the Niji Peach was good but I would have like it too be a little peachier For starters we ordered the Agedashi Tofu and fried Gyoza. The tofu was really good reminder me if Springfield Cashew chicken mainly because of the brown sauce and onion. The gyoza was good and served with a teriyaki sauce. Teriyaki sauce was good but it was really cold I prefer it to be room temperature or warm. SPF Fried roll w/ spicey crab, Volcano Roll and SMS roll. Each one was delicious. The Chicken Ramen and Hibachi Steak we're both served hot. Both had good flavor but and would enjoy eating either one again both served with Miso soup and salad. We definitely will go back again and would recommend this place to anyone. read more

Nice find while in Springfield for a couple of days visiting family. I had the ramen and really enjoyed it. We sat on the patio which was a good option in the wonderful weather we were having. I had some questions on the drink menu and our server was very helpful in not only answering my direct questions about one of the drinks but offering an alternative when that was not what I was looking for. We will be back here when we are in town in the future. Unexpected gem we found on this trip. read more

The ambience as soon as you step through the doors is classy & beautiful. I really liked all the unique lighting fixtures. Twotwo was my server and she offered suggestions and was nice company while dining in at the bar. The sushi was tasty and fresh. I had my classics, yellowtail roll & salmon nigiri, and then a suggestion of TNT roll which I wasn't displeased with. I would for sure go back and try some different offerings from their menu. They had everything from hibachi to ramen. All in all it was a good experience. read more

Great restaurant. This may be the nicest sushi restaurant in Springfield and the service equaled the decor. They make you feel as though you are part of the family. There were several unique rolls that we had to try. We were part of a group, so we were able try several of the other dishes as well and each of those was excellent. We certainly did not leave hungry. read more

Came into town on a Friday night in Lent and met some friends here around 8. Everything about it was 5 stars. Beautiful decor, was able to be seated right away and our server was great. We tried several fun cocktails. I had the pineapple bomb and captian mama. Both were delicious. We shared the crabtons which were just ok, I prefer a traditional crab rangoon. We shared the pineapple shrimp fried rice....AMAZING --- and 3 rolls, the TNT, alaska and jurassic. They were all soooo good. Had a few desserts too but that's not really my thing so I don't know how they compare to other sushi places desserts. read more

The food taste like shit the prices are horribly big you're going to come in there are you going to spend a bag and the food doesn't even taste that good at this point it's better to walk into Jack-in-the-Box I just get some food there because at least you know what you're getting but with these sushi's you pay a bag and it doesn't even taste that good the customer service was great by the way.

Best sushi in town. Nice atmosphere. Great staff. Good service which is hard to find these days.

Nice local spot to have dinner. Pros: -Quick service -Sushi -Large menu with many options -Clean interior -Nice location on Lone Pine Cons: -Ramen flavor -Several flies on the patio. Maybe a fan would help? We are outside on the patio. The sushi was the highlight! The ramen was okay, but could have more flavor. We will definitely come back to this place for more sushi soon! read more

Favorite new sushi spot!!! The owner was so nice and checked up on us to make sure we were satisfied as well as our waitress. Everything tasted great and did not take long at all. I can understand why this place is always busy, but as soon as we walked in we were already welcomed a table. The atmosphere is nice as well. Loved all the decor, lights, designs, etc. Gave my boyfriend & I a topic to talk about as we looked at everything. One of the best spots in Springfield to try for sure. 10/10 recommend :) read more

Went with my girlfriend and sister. The place had just opened so im not sure about the ambiance. The food was amazing everything we ordered tasted fresh and warm. The service was good and fast. read more

Food was O.K. (just average)... But waiter was rude, my husband's food came out then my food came out 10 minutes later (after asking several times). Serviceware was dirty. Bathroom was GROSS (sticky floor and dried tampon blood on trash can AND backed up toilet). Really, just don't bother. read more

What a hidden a little jewel my husband is a huge sushi fan as where I am not. This little spot had everything anybody could ask for. The sushi was amazing the sake was the best the beer was very cold and the hibachi filet was delicious. So glad we happened upon this place all in a very beautiful setting. If you haven't been here don't hesitate you won't be disappointed!!! read more

Me and my friends just finished a night out at Nihi sushi bar and grill. We ordered what we thought was crab Rangoon and I personally got the spicy edamame. We got our entrees first which included a spicy crab roll, a breeze roll, a California roll, rice, noodles, and the spicy ramen. We got our entrees first (the rolls) and they were delicious. The noodles, rice, and ramen were just average at best. Our service was a little disappointing because of the great ambiance. The server barely talked to us and she seemed like she was scared of us...? Overall (somewhat) enjoyable will be returning to try the cocktails. read more

Love this place! Niji Signature Roll is amazing. Service is spot on. Staff is attentive and super friendly. The whole place has a super laid back, chill vibe. read more

I come here all the time it's one of my favorite spots in town! ThuThu is wonderful and the server Madison is also such a treat to have! It's so cute inside too. All of their food is wonderful and they have so many different kinds of sushi rolls. Would recommend to try if you haven't already! Also get the salad because I could eat the salad dressing as my main meal every day and never get tired. read more

Our family made a reservation and were looking forward to celebrating a birthday with Niji. When we arrived at our reservation time, the hostess informed us that they were clearing our table and we would be seated shortly. After about 5 minutes the hostess seated our family and we started going through the menu and planning our meal. After we were seated a few minutes, I noticed that several employees were having a loud argument with the hostess and that a group seated at the bar was arguing with those employees. After a few more minutes, a staff member came to our table (we thought to take our drink orders) and told us that they had made a mistake by seating us and they needed our family to leave the table. The staff member seemed to act as though we had done something wrong, but it became apparent another group had been waiting for a table and had been overlooked by the hostess. We got up to leave the restaurant and were stopped by the manager at the front door. She repeatedly apologized, said that her staff should not have asked us to give up our table, repeatedly asked that we stay, and said she would take care of our group. Our family decided to give them another chance and were shepherded by the manager to seats at the bar. When the manager walked away to speak with the hostess, the staff member who had asked us to leave our table approached me again and began to try to argue that we should not have been seated. I called the manager back and told her to get the employee away from our family- My daughter was nearly in tears by this point and just wanted to leave. We left while the manager argued with her staff and she asked us to reconsider. This was by far the most unprofessional and humiliating experience I have ever had at any restaurant. Our evening and birthday celebration was ruined. We went to several other restaurants, but without reservations we were told at one it would be an hour and a half wait and at the other they were completely booked. Overall, a horrible experience. A shame as we were really looking forward to Niji, but if they are this bad at managing the front of the house you have to wonder what is happening in the back too. read more

Ordered Take Out from their "Take out" menu. Was later told that this is an online only menu and that's why I did not receive my discount. No verbiage on the website indicates so. Manager was not willing to work in the favor of the customer. That is fine. Out of 30 pieces of sushi rolls I was given the size dollop of wasabi and ginger you would receive from a 6 pc boxed sushi you'd buy at price cutter. I have wasabi at home. Easy fix. What's most disappointing is that the tempura breading, even the rice(!), was soggy and falling apart from the rolls when I picked it up. I was told to come in 30 min and showed up in 25. I will most likely find sushi somewhere else. read more

Today we took one of our granddaughters for her birthday lunch. It was our first time here. It was beautiful. I also like the variety on the menu. She and Grandpa had bentto boxes and I had seafood ramen. It was so good. The bentto boxes has just the right amount of food without letting you eat too much. The broth in the ramen was really good. We would definitely go back here to eat. The service was great and it was very nice and clean. read more

Made the mistake of not ordering sushi, the other items on the menu were very disappointing. We ordered a ramen and chicken hibachi dinner. Both dishes had noodles included--however, they were not Asian noodles, the were basically spaghetti noodles. The broth also didn't have much flavor at all, same for the miso soup, which kind of tasted like salt water. The chicken was also pretty bland. Will def try sushi next time, as reviews are much more positive for that! read more

Clean, cute, young vibe, too small of a portion. Miso Ramen soup had no flavor, water & a bit of miso. Had to look for pork piece, then could not chew stringy piece, frozen mixed veggies in small amount of noodle soup. Bento 4 boxes, it was ok, California Roll not wrapped with seaweed, fell apart. The chef needs to put he feet in the ocean and cross to Asia to know how to cook with favor. read more

This place was incredible! Will definitely continue coming here!!! Best sushi I have had in forever! read more

Very excellent atmosphere and cool looking interior. Really fantastic service. Staff seemed extremely friendly and welcoming. The two sushi rolls I had to accompany my combination plate were good. The steak & chicken combination hibachi dinner seemed to lack flavor. read more

The best sushi in mid Missouri. Great for lunch or dinner. Small quiet and very good!

Ate on their patio and had the plum wine and their ramen. It was amazing food and the atmosphere inside and outside was amazing. I definitely plan to go again and their prices were reasonable for the quality given. Our server was very kind and attentive but not overly so. read more
