A Japanese restaurant opened by Korean, playing American music inside nonstop. But the food's actually pretty goodHad some really buttery sashimiSushi roll has been fried to a perfect crispynessThe Nikko sushi with the fire stunt are not too special though. Good for the show, flavor's mediocre Staff are nice and timelyPrice's ok.

Came to one of the many sushi places in Arlington Heights. It didn't look all that good from the outside, just in a crummy strip plaza. Nikko makes it count on the inside though. Mainly because of the food. The prices are about average for good quality sushi, so not enough to be bank breaking to get some great rolls. At lunch it was pretty quiet inside. It may have to do with the location. This isn't the easiest to see or get to. At lunch they have a bit better prices. It's about $4.50 for most rolls. Got ourselves a few of the vegetarian ones. The Avocado was filled with creamy and fresh avocado, and the Sweet Potato was filled with big soft chunks of the tubers. Good place to get great quality of sushi and still not pay a crazy amount. It also has Asian cocktails but that's only for dinner though. There's a few rolls that are okay for vegans and vegetarians.

We were in the area and looking for a restaurant that was open late. This is located in a small strip mall that was quite dark and abandoned looking at night except for this restaurant! The inside is warm, inviting, nicely decorated and had a good amount of people eating in even though it was a late dinner at 8:30pm. We all enjoyed the food especially the udon and the stone beef bowl.

Absolutely fabulous, I'm SO looking forward to coming back. The restaurant is small, so luckily they weren't super busy when we walked in. We got greeted and seated right away. I had green tea to drink, and started with miso soup, gyoza, and the coconut shrimp. The miso was very simple--not even sure if there was tofu in it or I just didn't get any. But good flavor none the less. The gyoza wrapping is definitely made in house. The sauce that comes with it is great, and the order comes with 5. The coconut shrimp though--that's where it's at. I'm not sure exactly what sauce they put on it but I loved it as did my boyfriend. Some of the shrimp have the tail already cut off which I appreciate. For sushi we couldn't make up our minds as they have so many good sounding options. We "limited" ourselves to four rolls though. My pick was the butterfly madam as I've been super into lobster and crab lately--this is the one on the very left of the photo. Lots of good flavor, just hard to eat a piece in one bite, so if you're going on a first date, stay away lol Next is the Godzilla roll which is always a safe bet. It was creamy and good. The toro blue fin was my boyfriends choice, and the mango is extremely fresh, the truffle oil is a unique factor I've never had on sushi before but definitely want again. I'm not super big on tuna but I could handle this roll. The last one (very right) is my personal favorite--the crunchy melt. I could eat this every day. I've had mozzarella cheese melted on sushi before and it's one of my favorite things, but can't find everywhere. This place does it the best. If you check in on Yelp, you also get free ice cream! We were too full to do that, but maybe next time when we come back we can try to save some room.

This meal was wonderful. Started with the Nikko tortillas that seemed a little over fried but still had great flavor. My wife and I shared three rolls at the table and always try a variety of flavors and textures. We had to try the Nikko roll which was flaming at our table exciting us to eat it. We also enjoyed the Kamikaze roll and Godzilla roll that helped round out our meal. Fun fact the chopstick boxes you see as you walk in used to be repeat customers that would keep their chopsticks safe at the restaurant to enjoy sushi at there next visit. Unfortunately they have stopped this practice but still a great story.

Ordered door dash three items - sunset roll, Toro nigiri, fluke nigiri. Everyone else on the planet gives 2 pieces for nigiri order Nikko gives 1 so the fluke is substituted with yellowtail - actually an upgrade but make up for the small portions. The sunset roll was pretty bland - rice was hard and was unseasoned - not like true sushi rice at all. Called restaurant the chef stood behind his food, the owner, and the price - never ordering from them again. If you want bad sushi that's overpriced- this is your place!

Went here and the place is very dirty. They left the doors open so all the mosquitoes got in and I got eaten up all over my legs. The food tasted gross. Bathrooms were disgusting. Service was slow.
