Chef's cart

We had a long day and walked in for hibachi. The atmosphere was lively, many people here for Hibachi birthday parties, chefs doing utensil shows on the grill, squeezing water or sake for guests to catch! The portions were generous and food was delicious. We ordered Kani salad and vegetables tempura, both good! For Hibachi, the 3 of us ordered different proteins, and Chef Eric gave each of us some of each protein: chicken, steak, and scallops. Green tea hit the spot to balance out the food.

Pink starburst. Yum

This is my cousins go to hibachi spot so she Invited me to stop by for a quick bite. We didn't do the cooking station this time- we ate at the regular dining area. She had the shrimp and scallop hibachi entree with fried rice. I have to say that in some places the hibachi in the dine in section doesn't have that hibachi flavor but you it did here . It had that firey Smokey taste as if it they brought it fresh off the other side. I had the pink starburst which was amazing. It's like a lychee martini but pink. Really good. I'll be back.

Craving hibachi, a group of us made a reservation and came for a hibachi experience. The hibachi performance were very energetic and lively making for a really fun dinner from the youngest to the oldest. The stunt with the sake gun where sake (or the non alcoholic kind) is sprayed into your mouth is a little intimidating. Make sure to firmly say no if you don't want to partake... We mixed and matched a few of the combo hibachi which turned out to be great because our party had a few people who didn't come as hungry. Food wise, the scallop was my personal favorite of the hibachi. The food was cooked a little bit on the saltier side, but still had good flavor - especially paired with their sauces. We also ordered some rolls and appetizers - the rolls were alright, but the soft shell crab definitely hit the spot. Don't expect top tier food, but for vibes and a lively night, nikko is a pretty solid choice.

I never knew about this place. My sister and I wanted to go for a walk at Cunningham Park but wanted to grab food first. We stumbled upon this place. It's a nice size restaurant. One side is regular booths and a bar and the other side has the hibachi tables. The service was good. Everyone worked as a team making sure our waters were full and finished dishes were collected. My sister and I ordered pork gyoza for our appetizer which was so good. I never had it before and really liked it. The chicken lo mein was phenomenal. We both got hibachi for our entrees. Everything was delicious. We had to get dessert! The fried ice cream had an after taste which we didn't really care for but we finished it. My sister got an Angry Orchard for her drink. Overall, I had a nice experience. We are for sure going to come back.

This place really gained in popularity recently. It was packed when we went for our friend's birthday dinner on a Saturday night. We had reservations and waited about 5-10 minutes for our table to be ready which is fine. The food is ok- nothing special and came out fairly quickly. I noticed that the add tip/service charge to ALL the bills. Not sure I am fond if this idea as a tip is optional for service provided. This alone puts me off to potentially going back. My friend told me that even in a party of 2, they still add the tip into the bill.

We made reservations and were seated within 5 min. Our chef was amazing. Funny & interactive. He made our night and the food was delicious. Definitely coming back

The atmosphere here is nice, it's a great place to bring a date, or catch up with friends. I came here for lunch with my wife. Our server promptly came to us and took drinks and order. She was friendly and helpful. The drinks were okay, and same for the food. It's not much to brag about. I did ask for hot sauce and received sriracha, which was expected. Lunch was also reasonably priced with the lunch specials being $13, which included shrimp stick, and an entree. I'll go back again because my wife works nearby however, I would not go out of my way

Filet Mignon Hibachi Lunch Special

My favorite hibachi place ever!!!!! I go at least twice a month & am basically a regular. The food is the best hibachi you can get in nyc. If you are on a budget I recommend going in the afternoon for the lunch special the food is almost half the price for just a slightly smaller portion. Note that tip is included in the bill which shouldn't matter because the service is so good you're going to end up tipping anyway. If you haven't tried the chicken wings here you need too! I always get my tried and true filet mignon hibachi with wings as an appetizer and fried Oreos for dessert. It's very calm on the booth side which is where I like to sit but the hibachi show is always fun as well. 10/10 I recommend this spot to everyone I know.

Ask the Community - Nikko Hibachi

Does this place do hibachi service (with entertainment chefs) during lunch hours?

Overrated! The chefs there are not great entertainers, I went to a great Hibachi place in North Carolina and the chefs there flip utensils for about 3 to 4 minutes with great skills, this place was boring and the chef spoke quietly and squirted… 

Do they still offer happy hour food specials in 2021?

No.

I read that the owner was from Japan so we gave it a try. I ordered shrimp tempura as appetizer and…read morea spicy tuna and salmon poke bowl. Hubby had a tonkatsu. I asked for hot green tea while he got a bottle of Japanese pineapple soda. We ordered at the counter because no one was when we entered so we didn't know if there was table service. This spot used to be a Chinese takeout so it is definitely on the casual side. We sat at one of the tables (5 two tops). We had grabbed some disposable chopsticks and napkins from the counter. When the server came with the tonkatsu and tempura, she had napkins and chopsticks for us so I guess we didn't have to help ourselves beforehand. She then came with a lovely teapot and two small cups for the tea. The tempura was different from most places - no crunchy panko crust and no dipping sauce. When she came back, I asked about a sauce and she pointed to a small dish with thick dark sauce. I had thought that was for the tonkatsu. The poke took even longer and that was also different from what I'm used to. The fish pieces were not marinated - she gave me a small dish with soy sauce. The sliced jalapeño was also a surprise. I had thought I would get a spicy marinade on the poke. I mixed in the soy sauce and ate it with the sliced jalapeños. When we came home and looked at the receipt, the prices were weird. The tea was $1.56 and the $22 dishes were $22.88. Apparently we were charged a 4% credit fee which wasn't disclosed - or we missed the sign.

I live about 1.5 miles away and will be making the trip back this way regularly now, as they have a new customer and fan.

Intimate setting where you can really enjoy your dinner and company and also get to know the owners. Family owned and taken care of very well. All the food here is fresh and delicious and creative.

Great katsu and anything on the sushi menu was divine. Love the toro, yellowtail, and sea urchin. Can't go wrong with either the nigiri or sashimi choices. A wonderful alcohol selection as well with special items i've never seen before but very refreshing were the green tea beer and the yuzu beer. A gem in forest hills and a must try.

I guess that's part of the "charm"? But literally when we found it we didn't even know if the place was open. The gates were down, the windows were basically covered and nothing about the place was welcoming. We realized they were in fact open so we approached the door. We were greeted by a piece of paper stating "reservations only". We entered anyway and the place was EMPTY. There was one couple seated but other than that the place was EMPTY. The hostess approached us and I asked her if we needed a reservation and she said we did. So we said ok we'll come back another time and then she said, " well since it's pretty quiet tonight we can seat you." We should have left. We were in there for about an hour give or take and no one else came in at all. At all. Anyways, we ordered our food. I ordered the sashimi plate and my husband ordered a couple rolls. We also ordered the crab and avocado salad and the hamachi kama. Everything was basic. Nothing was amazing...oh except the price of the hamachi kama. Menu said market price and I get it, that means the price will fluctuate accordingly, but $60 for the hamachi kama? I almost fell off my chair when the bill came. I have eaten at very high end sushi restaurants and am almost 50 years old. I have never had a $60 hamachi kama. This one wasn't even tasty!!! It was not good or flavorful. Tasted like they just defrosted and microwaved it. I was wondering why i kept hearing a microwave go off but realized after the fact that that's what they must have done. I did not complain. We paid the bill. We left. Later that night I had stomach issues. Nicest way I can put that. I will say that i ate almost nothing that day so I can only attribute the stomach issues to the sushi. Needless to say we will not be back.

We ordered a combo with chicken popcorn, which paired perfectly with our meal, and ended on a sweet note with their matcha jelly dessert. The Thai tea was good, though a bit rich and sweet for my taste. I'd recommend diluting it slightly to balance the flavor. What really stood out, aside from the food, was the ambiance. We were seated in a cozy, semi-private booth (almost like a little dining nook), which made the whole experience feel more intimate and relaxing. The staff were also quick and courteous, adding to the overall great vibe. Definitely a spot worth coming back to.

We tried a bunch of ramens and they were all delicious. I tried the omarice, and it was good, but the glaze lacked flavor. I feel like it would be better to go with their curry sauce. Overall, a decent place for ramen, but not going to seek coming out here.
