    Such a great experience at Niko Sushi Chefs in La Habra! The chefs were so welcoming and even gave us a free appetizer for our first visit. They went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of and even stopped by to chat with us. The secret menu was AMAZING the Salvador Roll and Jalisco Special Roll were so bomb. We also loved the bluefin and salmon sushi. Everything was fresh and delicious. Highly recommend, we'll definitely be back!

    The staff at Niko always make you feel welcome. and the tuna carpaccio is always on point. The ambience is always a vibe.

    I will always recommend this place. It's truly like family and we've been going for years. Fast and friendly service, always a fun vibe going in and the best food/sushi I've had around!

    Chirashi Bowl
    Leslie W.

    Came to Niko Sushi and left very impressed. Started with the chirashi bowl, which came out beautifully presented in a boat -- a fun touch that didn't feel gimmicky. The fish was very fresh and the portion was generous, making it both visually appealing and satisfying. We also ordered the 2-item bento combo with pork katsu and chicken teriyaki, and the portions were large. The chicken was nicely grilled and juicy, while the pork katsu was crispy and well-fried without being greasy. All the sauces were on point and really tied everything together. To round it out, we tried the shrimp tempura, which was lightly battered, crisp, and not overly oily -- exactly how tempura should be. Overall, excellent sushi restaurant with fresh fish, solid portions, and well-executed dishes across the board. Definitely a spot worth coming back to.

    Niko Boat

    Last night, my son graduated and we went to Niko sushi chefs after graduation. We ordered the Nico boat and it was delicious. Plenty of food for 5 people. they even did a special request and changed one of the items on the menu for something else that my son wanted service was great as well.

    The sushi that came with the bento box my daughter is enjoying it for lunch came on a shark plate amazing plus a full bento box for lunch.

    Chefs from Niko, Niko LaHabra, Caesar, Salvador, Lee, and Alexia opened a wonderful business, maintaining the same high quality Niko Niko had in LaHabra. They even added their own flair to it, and I really enjoyed it. The service is excellent; they always greet you with a smile and make you feel like family there. They offer high-quality sushi at a reasonable price. You can't beat the lunch bento box with its huge portions, great price, and quality sushi and food. Come support this small business; they're amazing.

    Spicy Edamame
    Lupita E.

    I was doomscrolling on TikTok one day and came across a video of this place. I decided to check it out since it was only 8 miles away. The location is in a strip mall with lots of parking. We went on a Saturday around 1 pm. There was already a nice crowd but there was still plenty of seating open. We decided to sit at the bar. I'm so glad we did! The entire staff is friendly and down to earth including the chefs. We were able to interact with all three of them and learned so much about their start a few months ago. We ordered from the main and "secret" menu. We started with the spicy edamame. For us this is a must when going to sushi spots. But theirs?! OH EM GEEEE! The large serving is enough for about 4/5 people and comes with a lemon wedge. As a Mexicana, when I first tasted them I thought they had Tajín on them haha but the chef said it wasn't Tajín. Well, whatever it was it's a bit of sweet and spicy and a lot of yummy goodness! We ordered five different rolls. At any other place they'd bring them all out on individual plates. Not this place! They brought them out on the coolest dragon plate! The plating was beautiful and fun. We weren't even celebrating anything. That's just how they roll! The rolls were all flavorful and generous in size. Our favorite was the Jalisco Roll. My son and I both agreed we'd come back.

    Salvador roll from the secret menu is Delicious.

    This is a warm place to eat great sushi and be treated like VIPs. Sit at the bar so you can get spoiled by the chefs, Salvador and Cesar . Gio and I will keep coming to enjoy the menu. The ambience makes us feel like family

    Princess P.

    Best service, and the kindest chefs! Thank you chef Li, Salvador, and Cesar for giving us a welcoming experience here in Whittier. The food was delish and they even gave us some on the house. Love it, will come back

    5/5, vegan review included:…read more Vegans & vegetarians this one is for you!! I was shocked to discover Hanamaru served both meat eaters and the plant based crew, and could not believe my eyes when I saw they had a vegan menu on Yelp, but call me astounded when I realized that it was several PAGES long. It reminded me a little of Huntington Ramen in Fullerton, and the similarities make sense since they are sister restaurants, as noted by previous Yelpers. We visited on a Saturday night to celebrate some birthdays, and realized that they had a pretty full crowd. We waited a little to be seated, but afterwards, service was both kind and attentive. I struggled to make up my mind on what to order, because everything on the vegan menu had pictures and looked absolutely phenomenal. I wound up just asking for a recommendation for the most popular roll, and landed on the vegan volcano roll, while my friend ordered the non-vegan volcano roll. We also ordered several small plates: baked mussels for my friend, and vegan inari bomb and vegan tofu karaage for us to share. While we waited, the server brought out two crispy rice--one vegan and one not vegan for us on the house. They were simply delicious, and I will need to order that the next time I'm dining here. Everything we ordered came quickly, and tasted as good as the pictures. My friend tried one of my vegan rolls, and she said it was just as good as her non vegan rolls. They're super flavorful but manage to taste very clean and light, perhaps from the cucumbers. She might just order from the vegan menu next time too! Of the small plates, I liked the tofu karaage more, but only because the flavors on the inari bomb resembled that of the rolls I ordered. I've been to many vegan sushi places over the years, and this is one of my favorite spots, despite it being catered to both meat eaters and vegans alike. After we finished, they also served us one vegan and nonvegan ice cream on the house. While we didn't tell them we were celebrating birthdays, their extremely kind service made us feel exceptionally well taken care of. It was ~$70 after tip and I tipped higher for the great service we received, so pre-tip prices are not unreasonable. This will definitely be my go to spot for whenever I'm craving vegan sushi.

    We've visited twice and trued their Essentials and Signature AYCE menus. The restaurant is easy to…read morefind with ample parking and opens at 5pm. First Visit (Thursday - Essentials AYCE): We came with friends and tried a wide range of appetizers, ramen (good), and sushi, including all the limited premium selections. The shrimp tempura and dipping was very bland, and the soft-shell crab lacked crunch, but the salmon & yellowtail collars were excellent. Fish was fresh. All items were generously portioned and their generous cuts of fish was impressive. We also liked the grab-and-go drinks and desserts (though no Coke Zero). The restaurant filled up quickly after 6pm, so arriving early helped. Service by Sue was friendly and attentive. Second Visit (Friday - Signature AYCE): The Signature upgrade includes an omakase starter, unlimited bluefin tuna, plus everything on the Essentials menu. The unlimited bluefin tuna was melt-in-your-mouth delicious and worth the $15 upgrade. We mainly focused on sushi this time - blue fin, yellow tail, limited premium (scallops were amazing) items, avocado cut rolls, and carpaccios. The shrimp tempura was bland again (strike two) but the shishito peppers were a nice surprise. Finishing with Coke Zero (yay!) and ice cream was perfect. Chelsea, our waitress, was very attentive and engaging. Overall: Fresh fish, generous cuts and portions, and the Signature AYCE upgrade make this spot a gem. They also offer fresh-frozen wasabi which is a plus for me. Not everything hits the mark (tempura!), but the variety, attentive service, and value keep us coming back. Glad to have found a local Japanese restaurant with AYCE options nearby.

After several visits, I can confidently say they've been consistently great. We arrived on a Friday around 6 pm and only waited about 5 minutes while they cleared off a table, which was great for dinner on a Friday night. From the moment we sat down, both servers were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and efficient. They kept everything moving without ever making us feel rushed. Our first round of food: 8 specialty rolls, sashimi, nigiri, and tempura, arrived in about 10 minutes. I was honestly shocked at how quickly everything came out, especially considering the size of the order. The quality didn't suffer either; everything tasted fresh and was beautifully presented. Service stayed consistently fast throughout the meal, making it easy to get all three rounds in. At $40 per person for AYCE, it's a fantastic value. The restaurant is always very clean. The women's restroom was well stocked and spotless, which I always appreciate. One thing I wish they'd change is utilizing the left side of the restaurant more often as it has a much cuter atmosphere. We were seated on the right side, which is clean and comfortable but doesn't have quite the same charm. It's easy to see why this has become my family's go-to AYCE sushi spot. Great service, fresh food, reasonable prices, and a consistently enjoyable experience keep us coming back.

I noticed that they had good reviews on Yelp and they were nearby so why not? We walked in close to the end of their lunchtime. They have some parking right at the front but I know that plaza can get very busy specially for breakfast time so not a problem for sushi. They have a few offers on the signs outside for lunch menu and a different Omakase. My boyfriend really wanted to try the luxury Omakase since it included a lot of courses and we were hungry. The staff were really friendly and we got sat on the bar. They have some table tables and then they have the large bar area. They have a very modern clean feel and it is family friendly. They do offer some alcohol. I noticed the refrigerator with look like sake and other alcohol. We decided to order draft beer and the luxury omakase. We were warned that they were a lot of dishes, but we were up for a challenge. I will say that the pricetag of $105 is definitely worth it. This is now my number one sushi spot in the area no doubt about it. Every single piece was delicious. The chef will prepare the piece and put them on the top of the bar for us to grab. My absolute favourite one was the sear black cod it would melt on your mouth. We will definitely be back for the omakase and we are also curious of trying the regular menu. They mentioned that what was included in their omakase would change day by day so every time would be a different experience. I would highly recommend this sushi restaurant.

The Pink Lady was something I had high expectations for, and it was good, but in a very subtle way. I think it would be complemented well with some hot sauce. It kind of reminded me of a crab cake but less salty. It was falling apart, however. The neat part is how the toppings are decided by the chef, and the presentation was there once again. I'm not sure if it's kale that they put in with the rolls, and if it's edible or not. But, I think a little salad wouldn't hurt. Or maybe some pickled radish and carrots. Anyway, I am glad I found and tried this establishment. Although the last time I picked up an order, the employee did not seem to believe my name. So, I had to show her twice that it was indeed mine. Food delivery apps need to do better with showing our name next to the order since neither UE nor DD have that, making it tedious to switch to our profile to display our name, then go back to the order page to prove the transaction.

First, the BOGO deal is awesome. There are happy hour deals, but we rarely get there in time to take advantage. It's just a bit of a drive for us to get there early enough. Second, the Chefs!!! Go to any sushi joint you want... you've got ONE chef slinging fish, totally backed up, trying his best to keep pace, and all the while losing attention to detail and presentation. CRnS always has 3 sometimes 4 Chef's behind the line. The result is faster service.... Of course.... But presentations that are almost too pretty to eat... but, it's sushi, so we eat them anyway. And third, the servers.... They are pretty consistent....There are not new servers every other week like some lesser joints. You get familiar with them and they get familiar you. Which leads me to James! James is awesome, polite, helpful, attentive, and just does a great job. I could never do it.... I'd be like "Bruh, I was just here 2 minutes ago, why didn't you ask more Wasabi and Ginger then?" Not James, always glad to bring us more Wasabi and Ginger.... And I promise you... we wear him out... definitely gets his steps in when we show up. James probably thinks we're packing the stuff in Tupperware but I swear James... we're eating it. Anyway, I have rambled enough. IFYKYK, and if you don't know, give them a visit! SEE YOU TOMORROW!
