   We have been here 4-6 times. As always the food was phenomenal. The service is discrete but attentive. The tomahawk is cooked perfectly. The bone marrow is unbelievable. The salads are tasty and lightly dressed. The potato stack amazing. We tried pig ears tonight: wow. The deserts have different flavors, different textures and colors. Mainly good. And one does not get bored with it

   Second time eating here. Both times were excellent. This time we sat at the Chef’s table and nerded out with questions to the Chef (who was really personable). We did a 16 oz Ribeye and the A5 sampler (Ribeye + Filet). As good as it gets… truly. A++.

   Amazing! ✨✨✨✨✨ Celebrated my fiancé’s birthday here and they were so kind and thoughtful. Steak was amazing, but so was everything else particularly the potatoes. Loved this place and can’t wait to come back. Need to check out their burger next door!

   I could have given a better rating, but, my personal meal was horrible, and I got very sick 5 hours after eating there. There were 4 of us, and everyone elses meal was fine. I ordered the shoet ribs. They were over salted, over charred, and a greasy mess. I didn't know what to expect, maybe this was the way it was suppose to be. The meat itself was really fatty. I wish I had them take it back, I didn't know I'd get so sick eating it,. Plus ruining everyone elses meal by delaying mine, etc. I do have to say the crunchy pig ears were great. I might go back there for them, not sure I'd go back for a meal.

   Excelente restaurante de cortes! Festejamos ahí nuestro aniversario y Reuben nos atendió espectacular! Nos recibieron con dos copas de vino espumoso como cortesía. Sentarse en la barra frente a los asadores es un espectáculo y la comida es deliciosa. Las bebidas también muy buenas y con una gran variedad de licores. Muchas felicidades es un must visitar este lugar.

   Exceptional Dinner at Niku Steakhouse Niku Steakhouse exceeded all expectations. The staff’s incredible service made us feel like VIPs. The ambience was top-notch—beautiful decor with a view into the kitchen added a special touch. We started with the wagyu charcuterie, which was melt-in-your-mouth amazing. Cocktails were fresh and creative, and the wine was stellar. The 6oz filets were cooked and seasoned perfectly—easily some of the best steaks I’ve had. It was my wife’s birthday, and they surprised her with sweets and port wine, which made the evening unforgettable. The Japanese sweet potato cake for dessert was the perfect finish. This is hands-down one of San Francisco’s best dining spots. Highly recommend it and will definitely be back.
