Niji Asian Bistro

I'd been here a long time ago and vaguely remembered it. Entering the establishment, you will see a bar/sushi bar to the right and tables to the left. You will most likely be greeted by two of friendliest proprietors in the area. Welcome to Niji Asian Bistro, a mom and pop sushi shop. 3 appetizers to go - poke mixed, salt & pepper calamari, and sushi sampler. Poke (POH-keh) meaning "to slice or cut" is a Hawaiian dish. It is comprised of cubes of sushi grade fish topped with an Asian-inspired sauce. It is sometimes served with rice. There was definitely tuna, salmon and yellowtail (I think) mixed with Unagi sauce (sugar, soy sauce, and sake). It was served with lots of avocado. If you like sushi or sashimi, I think this will be up your alley. Salt and pepper calamari. Fried calamari wok tossed with green peppers and onions served with some bottled sweet and sour sauce. I could actually taste the salt and pepper on the battered calamari rings. No tentacles in this dish, which, for me, is a bit of a downer. There's something satisfying about crunching into little legs/arms but that's just me. What also stood out was the size of the rings...all average ring size and the cook on them w

The sesame chicken was delicious. Each large morsel was tender and tasty. The sauce was excellent. The katsu chicken was so thin and crisp. Highly recommended. Service was fast , everything was hot. The facility is spotless.

On our way to Boston, we were looking for a place to have dinner and randomly picked this restaurant — and everything was so good! The tempura roll was 100/10, the tom yum soup was also really delicious (my mom loved it so much). In the cold winter weather, the miso soup was especially comforting. The gyoza sauce was amazing too. We also ordered fried rice with chicken and steak, and it was really good. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I don't understand how this place has so many good reviews. I decided to try habachi from a new place... big mistake!! If you like green peppers and flavorless chicken this place is for you! The entire tray was peppers, not much chicken. I don't like green peppers so I was concerned the chicken was going to taste like it but shockingly, even though it looks like black pepper was used it tastes like boiled chicken with no seasoning. The rice seemed to have been premade and came cold, the California roll had a funny taste and to top it off there was plastic in my food.

The sushi was so filling. We went during lunch time and ate abundantly. The tea was slightly on the warm side but still quenched the thrist. Wasn't a fan of the salmon. it could have been slightly overcooked. The specialty sushi rolls are huge. Everything tasted fresh as well. I'm still a good solid meal and very thankful 🙏. Lastly, the place was extremely clear and nice-looking.
