"Nijo is a staple here for anyone that's lived in the Fremont/Newark area. It's a fun place to go with a group. Food is pretty good, and the prices are decent. Every sushi roll I've ordered was really good. They offer karaoke on Friday and Saturday after 930. If you plan on the teppanyaki dinner, make sure to make reservations ahead of time. It gets filled up towards the end of the week pretty quick, and make sure you and your group are on time as they are pretty strict when it comes to that. You're paying for the experience and that's why I keep coming back."

This is one of my all time favorite places to dine. Great customer service, great service and the Ambience is second to none. Corona times are strange times but not here. You can still sit in the teppanyaki area as your own group. Before you would be sitting with a few couples. They cook a distance from you and bring it right over.

Nijo Ambiance Service: Nijo reminds me of my first teppanyaki experience as a kid. Friendly skilled chefs who did the routine grill theatrics: Tossing and cracking the egg with the spatula, the heart shaped fried rice which he makes 'beat ' and of course, the onion volcano! Our servers were so sweet and kept the drinks fresh through the meal. After verifying ID, they brought out the birthday dessert for my cousin. Fantastic. The decor is straight up classic Benihana Japanese decor from the 80s which works perfect for their theme.

"Mioki, from now on for me, shall be called Mi roll ki. Their rolls are beautiful, delicious, and filling. Came here for dinner on a weeknight and the service was phenomenal! Despite the crowds, we were able to get seated rather quickly (maybe around 5 minutes) we may have gotten lucky with the timing as the first wave was just wrapping up. Upon getting our seats, we were offered water with ice or no ice, lemon or no lemon. It was a nice touch to have that option as a patron. We knew we were going to get some rolls to share but were pleasantly surprised with a complimentary dish of tempera green beans shortly after we were seated. The green beans tasted fresh and had a nice crisp to it but not overly breaded. The dipping sauce to me wasn't necessary but did had a bit of flavor to the bite. Great way to get in your vegetables for the meal! Upon checking in on Yelp, we also received and used the check in offer for an appetizer size of gyoza. These came out piping hot, crispy on the outside, and juicy on the inside. It paired well with the dipping sauce. For rolls, we ordered the Cherry Blossom roll as it's our favorite and Mioki does an amazing job with it. Meaty bites and constructed aesthetically to make your mouth water and yummy grumbling. We also ordered the New Alaska roll, which was a new flavor profile for us. It is packed with smoked salmon and fresh salmon topped with a small slice of lemon. It was very tasty! To round off, we also got a TSY (short for Tuna, Salmon, Yellowtail) roll and it had five huge pieces. Each piece was loaded with fish and had a lot of substance with each bite. It's in the pricier end for the number of pieces you get but due to each piece's massive size, it seems fair. And to end our service, we were served a pineapple slice nicely cut into small bite sized morsels we could pick out with toothpicks. Healthy and delicious dessert! The rolls are consistently the best off their menu and with the amazing service exhibited this most recent visit, they're definitely among the top of my sushi list in this area!"
