niu kitchen

Nui kitchen is such a gem! Based on its location, it is totally unassuming. However, step in and prepare to be blown away. This place gets 5 starts on all fronts: the food is to die for, the staff is friendly and helpful (shout out to Tanner), and the wine list is expansive, well priced, and delicious. I’m surprised Niu Kitchen doesn’t have a Michelin star. Could not recommend this place more!

We went out for happy hour with friends and ended up staying for a three hour dinner! We had delicious appetizers such as the charred oysters ( great flavor and presentation ) and clams! The tomato bread was so crunchy and the sardine was full of flavor! We ended up splitting 3 bottles of nice Spanish white wines and the mushroom paella. Overall the dining experience was fantastic, casual yet feels like fine dining because of the excellent food, creativity in the menu, and the outstanding service! NIU kitchen is my new favorite neighborhood restaurant if you want to have a great meal and enjoy the company! Highly recommend it!

Used to be one of my favorite places to go. Short menu and great flavors. Last night was a terrible experience: When we arrived there were no host and we had to wait 15’ expecting someone to welcome us. (Of course we had reservation.) The octopus had no flavor, the steak tartar felt like old, the foe was ok but the rice paella was awful, how the hell an Spanish restaurant screwed a paella?? I don’t know what happened but I’m really disappointed.
