Nice food, feels like the usual home cooking in japanese family... neaty done.. yummy
Japanese food is overpriced for what it is. Having said this, this place tastes better than the place inside the shopping area across the lane way. The portions are the same (tiny), but it tastes much better.
Great options, portions are big and it was easy to order! The food reminded me of lunches from elementary schools in Japan

Niwatei, located inside a supermarket, offers Japanese dishes like ramen, udon, curry, pork cutlet, and bento at reasonable prices. The half and half menu allows customers to enjoy two different items simultaneously, with takoyaki being a favorite. The restaurant has a cozy and authentic Japanese atmosphere similar to a backstreet restaurant from 20 years ago, despite some clutter. It is a Japanese home-style food court that emphasizes simple, well-made dishes such as ramen and curry. Portions are generous, and the food often tastes like Japanese home cooking. The Ultimate Curry Udon is a must-try for those with a big appetite, even though the curry can be a bit sour. The interior may be small with limited seating, so there might be a wait during busy times. The staff can sometimes be non-English speaking, which might be a challenge for some guests. The food is consistently good; tempura udon with large, tasty shrimp is highly recommended. Visitors often enjoy dishes like shrimp tempura and omurice in a casual environment. Despite some clutter and limited space, Niwatei remains a popular spot for quick, authentic Japanese cuisine, especially for those seeking a simple, satisfying meal.
