I was pleasantly surprised with this restaurant. The handmade sushi rolls were delicious. They were a good size. I had the spicy tuna roll and the baked salmon roll. Loved them both 5/5. I also had miso soup and a strawberry sake. I enjoyed them as well. I am not a sake person but the strawberry sake was sweet and I would definitely order this again. The service was great 5/5. We were greeted and attended to regularly by both the server and the sushi chefs. The location is a little hole in the wall so space is tight. I really liked the vibe and felt comfortable with the seating. This place is special and I will be coming back.

I've had way better sushi and service. This was mid. Expensive rolls for being basic and not all that great. Service wasn't amazing nor horrible . No one checked on us. Took a while for sauces we asked for .

No complaints here. It's a small space, but we went for lunch on a rainy Saturday and had no wait. Parking outside is super easy and free. The portions are huge, we're used to smaller portions but when we got our food we were amazed. They also gave us free edamame and miso soup with our orders! The fish in my chirashi don was so fresh and i can only imagine what the spread is for the ultimate chirashi don. Our server constantly came back to check up on us. Overally great experience!

This place is wonderful! We are vegan and vegetarian and went for our anniversary. We tried 4 different rolls (all vegan): Ninja Turtle, Green House, Vege Terry, and Shamrock. All of them were excellent, but our favorites were Ninja Turtle and Vege Terry.We also had the spicy garlic edamame as an appetizer and it was yummy too.Dietary restrictions: Vegan options

This sushi place is in a nice location, and even though it was busy on Saturday night, we only waited 20 minutes to get seated- it's pretty small in there. The servers were friendly, and I loved that they all help each other. The music was great (2000s R&B), and the atmosphere felt very chill. The food was really good! We'll definitely return when we're in Redlands. Highly recommend it!

Food here is really good. you can tell the fish is fresh. The chefs are really great and the overall service is good. If you're going on a weekend plan on waiting about 20-35 mins. Nice vibe that you would expect from a typical sushi spot.
Always busy. They do a pretty good job of keeping up. Kind of a noisey

We came 6 min before closing and they served us. Just was able to get a sushi roll which was great. I really wanted a soup which was delicious and my friends food was good too He enjoyed. We had leftovers to take home.

Stupid Redlands eateries think they can dismiss vegetarians/vegans with lame offerings or outright ignore them. Smart Redlands eateries discover you'll eventually lose customers this way. How? Suppose four people want to go out and have sushi but one of them is a vegetarian? The place in town with ample fish and vegetarian options WINS. NIKO NIKO welcomes everyone. Whereas most places offer vegetarians about two options, usually some veggies rolled up or an avocado roll, NIKO NIKO go to town. There's like 8 to 10 interesting elaborate tasty veggie rolls. -- This is unheard of and I can promise you that a vegetarian who misses sushi stopped reading right then and is looking for their car keys. -- But listen my fishy friends: don't fear they neglect us really sushi types. They love us too. PAGES AND PAGES of choices. But there's one weird detail for us fish eaters -- the price and size of the rolls. Read this carefully and plan accordingly. Let's say a normal California fish sushi experience is two rolls for $33 per person. This place makes HUGE rolls for say $19 each. And so if you make the mistake I made the first time I visited you have way way WAY too much sushi for $38. I barely got all of it down, honestly -- and I can put sushi away like a squirrel hiding nuts. Time to do the math: if two fish eaters show up, order 3 big rolls and split'em: that's $57 -- or $28 per diner -- which as you can see is slightly cheaper per person than a normal sushi experience. The sushi is delicious and NIKO NIKO is now our only sushi spot. I don't love the location and the restaurant is kinda small. If they took over the closed CORNER BAKERY in town it would become THE Redlands sushi spot. So, again Stupid Redlands Restaurants -- get your vegetarian options together or WISH YOU DID. We're adjacent to a Blue Zone!

For the price they charge the sushi wasn't that good
