Nyko's Restaurant on Scalp

Always nice for a sushi lunch! I come here a couple times a year and always enjoy myself.The decor is really dilapidated and worn but the staff is always very friendly and service is efficient. Our relatively large order of sushi didn't take long and it was delicious as usual. Also their sushi menu is pretty extensive. I've found a few fish bones in my rolls but that's not very abnormal when youre eating a dish with fish. It's always pretty empty of customers but maybe I just come at odd times. I can only speak to their sushi (I've never seen anyone get anything else) but all-in-all a nice place for a sushi lunch in Johnstown.

Best sushi I've had in my life. Never a disappointing meal there. Always great service, always great food. My entire family loves this place. It's a little pricey, but the quality makes up for the price.

They didn't think our 10 year could eat the steak that was bigger than his head, but he sure did. We all ate well.

Overall - I had some really great expectations. In some cases my expectations were met, in other cases, this place left me wanting more. Let's start with the decor. One word comes to mind: Dilapidated. The walls look tired. Decor is old and worn. Seating units are very old and uncomfortable. There's no overall theme ... it's like an Italian restaurant mixed with a sushi bar mixed with diner food. Overall very weird. Now let's get to the food. My husband and I ordered a spicy tuna and salmon roll as an appetizer. Overall, good sushi. No major complaints. Our waitress had informed us that the special of the night was crab cakes, so that's what I ordered. Now I had mistakenly assumed that the crab cake special came with a lower price than the listed menu price... wrong. So for $40 I got 2 crab cakes, asparagus, and mac and cheese. It was good, but not worth $40. Service was good. Friendly. No complaints there. Overall, Im glad I experienced it once. I didn't exactly leave eager to return. Should I ever return, I'll probably just stick to a simple sandwich or sushi.

my wife, daughter, and I stopped tonight as we haven't been to nykos in years. I often hear people say how good the sushi was and I always remembered it being bad but we stopped anyway. I remembered correctly, the sushi was very overpriced and I've never seen such small sushi rolls. The spicy tuna roll for example was about the same diameter as a quarter. there was so much rice in all the rolls as well. We spent $100 on sushi for my wife and I as well as a shrimp cocktail and some rice for my 5 year old daughter and all the sushi could have fit on a dinner plate. the cocktail was $15 and had 5 shrimp in it. Our server was great, very friendly and accommodating. If you want much better sushi at a much better price go right down the road to Osaka.

Staple spot on Scalp!!!! Must try must stop in!!!! All sushi was fire as well as the rolls. Real good date spot!!!

Meagan was our incredible waitress. The sushi was great! Loved the interior and it has outdoor seating. Lettuce wraps were good. Recommend

I always have great service here and the food is always excellent. The staff are super nice and very friendly. The menu is typical sushi, made the way it's supposed to be, and fresh. I recommend this place for everyone that enjoys sushi. Great place for a date, a special occasion, or any occasion really. Not too fancy you have to dress up, but nice enough if you were dressed up, you wouldn't feel out of place.

I would run from this place. The outside looks really promising up to date and just really nice looking. But once you go in there is no one in there. We went for our anniversary and we were the only ones there. They have cheap rolled paper on the tables. Then I'm assuming the owner came into the side we were in and fired up this huge tv and starts watching the football game. Like come on. Then the sushi comes out smelling fishy which is a sign of old fish. We are avid fishers and I have left fish in the fridge for days and never smelled fishy as that sushi. We eat a lot of it also and the sad part is Sam's clubs sushi blows this place out of the water. Lastly they have lots of liquor tons of bottles locked up and we asked if they had a list of there alcohol and they didn't. How do you expect to sell it then? I would just stay away for sure.

Excellent sushi and excellent service! And this is coming from someone who lives in NYC and was in Johnstown for a visit. Keep up the great work!
