Tortilla soup, very good portion and flavorful.

Great food! Friendly service! It was clean, quiet and pleasant place. Many options for the salsa bar. We were told in advance we will be served in to-go containers. Holiday season.

Absolutely spectacular humans!…read more The steak is spectacular! Thank you for all you do!

We stopped in during the afternoon while traveling and were short on time. One of the reasons we…read morechose this place was because it had been recommended to us by ChatGPT for its good atmosphere and food, so we arrived with positive expectations. If you are on a schedule, hungry, or just passing through, I strongly recommend having a reservation before going. Another issue was the online menu experience. Their website would not open properly for us, and the menu information we found online did not match the physical menu we were given at the restaurant. That made it difficult to plan ahead or know what to expect before arriving. The host was initially kind enough to seat us at the bar so we would not be turned away, which we appreciated. We ordered a quick meatball dish to go and were told it would be about 10 minutes. Unfortunately, it ended up taking around 45 minutes. Had we been informed clearly from the beginning that the food would be significantly delayed, and that not having a reservation would place us at the back of the queue, we would have simply gone somewhere else and saved everyone the inconvenience. By the time the food arrived, we were tired and frustrated. During the wait, it was explained to us that because we did not have a reservation, other orders had to be prioritized ahead of ours. While the meal was ultimately provided at no charge, the overall experience was stressful and not ideal for travelers on a tight schedule. If you plan to visit, especially while on the road, I would recommend reserving in advance and allowing extra time. Good luck!

All the booths are made out of rum kegs. And are very comfortable. I had extremely good service while I was there and I got one of the boils. Now, while the crawfish was really large and you didn't get very many it was a delight along with the crab and shrimp that was in my boil. Iced tea was really good too. I came kind of at a in between hour between lunch and dinner and I still got very good service even though it was very slow at the time. It's very large restaurant and can host probably 200 people. I would say everything had kind of an Asian Cajun flair. As far as the seasonings and the spices went. Otherwise, you could get traditional seafood, and they had an extremely large menu which I was kind of surprised about. Located right on Harmony it's really easy to find. Overall was a very good experience and I'd recommend it.

The restaurant was not busy at all. We waited maybe a few minutes to be seated. The restaurant is…read moredecorated really neat. Our party was of 10 people, We ordered and our food arrived fairly quickly. I've tried many seafood restaurants in Washington. I was very disappointed at the flavor here. And Washington they serve a little cup of seasoning and some lemon wedges which sometimes you don't even need to use because of all the flavor. Here I had to ask for lemon wedges because I needed flavor. The server checked on us once towards the end of our meal when several people in our party had been waiting for drink refills. One person in our party did have water luckily they left pictures a few tables away so he was just able to refill his own water. Mind you after six tip is automatically included, which leads me to believe that this is why the server did not check on our table because he knew he was gonna get tipped regardless. The time mind you was $70 which is unacceptable for only checking taking our order and checking on us 1 times with an almost empty restaurant.

Great Neighborhood Place for SUSHI !…read more Over 5 years of eating here. Wide Variety on MENU -Teriyaki Chicken, Steak & TOFU Available. SAKI & BEER Avail. Food is Always Fresh , Friendly & Quick Service!

Based on the strong reviews we decided to give Niko Sushi & Steak a try. We arrived Monday around…read more6pm. We were seated immediately and the place was bustling. 2 sushi chefs and I saw maybe 2 cooks in the back. Our waitress promptly took our order. I ordered a specialty roll and my son ordered the salmon nigiri . I also ordered hot green tea. Rolls came out pretty quick. However my roll was loosely pressed and the Tuna was incomplete with sear, it seared oddly. Coloring and consistency was off. Like an opalescent grey. See pic. It did not look appetizing to me. I ate it and it was tasty but again the rice was not compressed enough to give you a satisfying bite. The salmon nigiri rolls were good Also I didn't care for the presentation. The two orders should have been separated but were plated on the same plate . The miso soup was 10 stars. Delicious and a rich flavor Tofu pieces were semi firm My salmon combo dish was just okay. Salmon was dry and a bit fishy , however once dipped in the sauces it was good . The sauces were its saving grace. The veggies were well seasoned and a variety given. The rice was dry and didn't have a fresh steamed flavor or consistency We always have steamed rice at home and this just didn't have a fresh flavor or consistency. Salad was fresh, crisp and the ginger dressing was yummy. Weird Note regarding service. Once we appeared finished with our rolls (I left 1/3 of the speciality roll ) our waitress asked if we were ready for the check and if she could bring us a box . We reminded her of our main entrees we ordered and she was very apologetic and said she would check on them . Hot green tea was served in an iron tea pot. I'm thinking this was just an off night for them as the place was busy with to-go customers and other diners happily eating

Let's start with the food: House salad consisted of lettuce, two tomatoes, two pieces of cucumber and some nasty ranch dressing. I couldn't eat the salad because the dressing was nasty. Filet mignon was cooked to the right temperature, but it was gristly on the inside You would think being in Wyoming, you would get a good piece of piece of meat. Especially for the prices you pay. So it was like 8 o'clock at night and I sat at the bar. There was only three other patrons at the bar service was extremely slow. Half the time I had no idea where the server went. So I had to wait to get another drink. When I ordered another beer, they brought me the wrong type of beer than what I was drinking I ordered food to go to take back to my kid in the hotel room. And when I was done, eating my meal. They asked me if I wanted anything else so I asked how's that takeout order coming and the waitress commented. Oh, I totally forgot. So they did comp the takeout but had to sit there for another 20 to 30 minutes waiting for it The place was not busy, very disappointed in this particular chophouse. Not sure if I would take a chance returning

Neighbors and friends kept telling us that Jax flew in fresh seafood daily and, although it is pricey af, it is worth the cost. So we tried it. And dammit if they weren't right. They had several types of fish that day (my husband was so excited to get fried catfish). I had the cioppino, which is honestly my favorite of all west coast seafood dishes and they nailed it. The drinks were good, the dessert we got (key lime pie) was delicious. Highly recommend and I will be back.

We started with the Steelhead Carpaccio. Delightful flavors of salmon, grapefruit, and pistachio prop up the lime cream. All at once makes for a delicious and complex play on a basic Carpaccio. Mains: I went with a Crab Caccio e Pepe, a delicious creamy take on crab and pasta. Just the right amount of Grana Padano and black pepper create the underlying notes for this crab and pasta dish. Delicious. Wife N went with the Blackened Ahi. This was extremely tender, and cooked perfectly (which is to say, absolutely raw with the exception of the flawless eighth-inch sear all around). Fingerling potatoes, horseradish cream and a sweet onion jam routed out the flavors here. Perfect. Place is a bit loud, but has all the vibe you'd expect from an oyster bar. Love Jax! We'll be back next time we're in town!

Then, they went into bankruptcy, and took their time to reopen selectively with a new menu and supposedly a better business plan. I waited a year until visiting after they reopened, hoping they'd have their new act together. Sorry, it's just not there, yet. Let's go down the list: #1, prices are way too high for the restaurant niche they're trying to recapture. I don't expect endless shrimp for $12.99 like the old days (which is why they went bankrupt) but a fried fish platter for $30 is outrageous for the same breaded filets, shrimp & scallops you can get in the Kroger's frozen food aisle for about $10. Then, #2, the funkytown nightclub music they have blaring feels waaaay out of place. You can't find some Island vibe music from Hawaii or the Caribbean? The music was really annoying. And, #3, just about everything is ala carte now, including salads. It's almost impossible to have a full meal, salads to desserts, for less than $50 a person. Hey, it's a Red Lobster, not a downtown steakhouse. Get real about pricing! The only good notes to report are their Happy Hour, 3-6pm M-F, to save a few bucks. And, at least the service at this Cheyenne location was courteous, prompt and very attentive. Aside from that, I probably won't be back for at least another year in hopes they start giving customers a little price break on mediocre seafood.
