    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

    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

    A MUST try! I had…read morenoticed this restaurant and the strip mall on Harbor Boulevard but had never been there. We were craving sushi and decided to try a new place. 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 courses came out a bit too quickly, and I actually had to ask if they could slow things down because I felt rushed and didn't feel like I had enough time to fully enjoy each dish. Our reservation was at 6 PM, and the restaurant wasn't busy, so I was a little surprised by the pace. I also felt that the chef could have been friendlier. We weren't greeted when we arrived, which made the experience feel a bit less welcoming than what I've experienced here in the past. That being said, our waiters were super friendly and I really appreciated their service. The food was good, but overall, the experience just didn't feel as enjoyable or special as I had hoped.

I did take the kale out of it because it seemed like it wouldn't fit the flavor profile and I think it was a good call. No additional sauces or additions are needed. Highly recommend stopping by the next time you're in the area.

But the bar was empty, and the table we were hoping for just needed to be cleared. Instead, we were asked to put our name and number on the waitlist and wait outside until they called us back. It seemed a little unnecessary, and it was super hot outside, but we went along with it. About 15 minutes later, we were seated and finally able to order. Thankfully, the food ended up being the highlight of the visit. The miso soup was quite good and wasn't overly salty like it can be at some sushi restaurants. The sushi was fresh and well prepared. I especially enjoyed the Naruto Roll, which was wrapped in cucumber without rice and had a beautiful presentation. It was light, refreshing, and full of flavor. My BF ordered a Poke Bowl, and that was also a winner. I was pleasantly surprised that they let you customize what goes into the bowl. That's something I usually only see at fast-casual poke shops, not traditional sit-down sushi restaurants. I also love the Spicy Garlic edamame. It was fresh and had the right amount of spicy garlicky kick. Overall delicious food and would probably come back.

Some of the rolls are $16.95 each so this is a truly great deal. Tonight, my hubby and I tried the baked shrimp roll, killer hamachi roll and seared ahi tuna roll. The rolls were so big that I could not fit one in my mouth in one go as I could in other sushi restaurants. The fish is so fresh with an umami flavor. It is just so delightful to dine here. In addition to the high quality ingredients and flavorful food, excellent service, the neighborhood feel is simply charming. Service here is fast, efficient and friendly.

The restaurant itself is VERY small, with about 4 small tables indoor max. There's outdoor seating available but it is not shaded, so it isn't the best option if you're eating a hot bowl of ramen on a warm summer day. The layout of the restaurant is very strange, because the seating area is literally smacked within the restroom and the kitchen - so you're either seated right by the bathroom or beside the kitchen area. Parking is located in the rear. Service was very good. I was greeted right away, with the order taken and my food served promptly. It was busy for a Wednesday night but the two staff handled everything well. My ramen was a 6/10. I actually did not like the Pork Belly as it tasted very gamey. The ramen lacked flavor and I know it wasn't just me because the customers next to my table had to asked for soy sauce. Overall, I enjoyed my dinner at Silverlake Ramen, but there wasn't anything spectacular about my visit that would warrant me going back.
