What people say about Niku Steakhouse

At Niku, conversations will revolve less around getting the largest steak possible than in discussions on searing techniques and varieties of wagyu. There will always be comments about beef tartare, bone marrow, and Japanese A5 steak, as well as how the staff is very clear about the richness, marbling, and sizing of the steaks. The whole meal is definitely an expensive one to have, but then again, there are some dishes that are just too rich. For those occasions celebrating steaks, the quality of service is part of the celebration.

Restaurant overview

About Niku Steakhouse

Niku Steakhouse is a modern San Francisco steakhouse that specializes in high-quality meat. This meat ranges from Australian wagyu and Japanese A5 cuts. Besides meat, the menu also includes seafood, vegetables, and meats in smaller portions so that the main course can be reached in the latter stages of the meal.

It is a good way to start the meal, since the Japanese wagyu tasting allows comparing different cuts without purchasing a huge cut at once. Other popular options include such cuts as filet, flat iron, and New York strip.

It is basically a special occasion restaurant, so making a reservation is recommended. Combining the starter and side dishes will help to balance the high-fat content meat that is served later.
