They used ranch instead of the classic sesame dressing, thats half the reason I get teriyaki. Chicken had almost no char, seems like it might have been baked instead of grilled. read more

Literally the best teriyaki I have tried around snohomish county! I love how tender and delicious their chicken teriyaki is! It's definitely a 5 star for me read more

Stale rice, super rubbery chicken, no gyoza sauce. Pretty much uneditable! What a complete waste of $15!!

Literally my favorite Teriyaki place. Tender beef, lots of veggies in the Yakisoba, the Potstickers are the best... period.

Clean. Friendly. Great food. We've eaten here before but didn't leave review. Really love it here .. our go to place. read more

Niko Teriyaki - a person's thumb up in a restaurant - Japanese Near Me - Snohomish, Washington

The beef teriyaki is super tender and flavorful, but the California roll was warm, and the smell was yucky and not good at all completely inedible read more

Got the beef/chicken combo and side of gyoza's. The meat was tender and delicious! The gyoza's were perfectly fried and tasted very good.

Amazing food and service! The Chicken Katsu was the perfect level of crispness, the Beef Yakisoba had incredible flavor, and the teriyaki sauce was a good blend of sweet and savory! Absolutely will be coming back! read more

I love teriyaki and I never realized before I moved to San Diego that it's not nearly as popular in other parts of the country as it is in the Seattle area. It's always on my list of must haves when I come home to visit. It's been quite awhile since I've eaten teriyaki in Snohomish and I couldn't remember which teriyaki place I liked the best. I decided to just give Niko a try because I remember eating here when I was in high school. I ordered the chicken teriyaki and my boyfriend, who is vegetarian, ordered the tofu teriyaki. Here's what it comes down to: the chicken teriyaki is delicious and along the lines of other teriyaki in the area. The tofu teriyaki is not so good. It was basically a slab of tofu on top of white rice with a little bit of teriyaki drizzled on top. I added a lot more sauce from one of the bottles on the table but even that, combined with sriracha at home, couldn't save the dish. It desperately needed some veggies to brighten it up and add some variety. Tofu on its own just can't carry a teriyaki dish. read more

Delicious food and friendly service! Definitely recommend the spicy chicken teriyaki.

This place is a gem! The beef fried rice and chicken yakisoba are the best! Reasonable price for the very good food!

Nikko Teriyaki is definitely worth consideration when you consider other teriyaki options in town. Nikko is the better of the bunch but no where near my fav teriyaki around. The spicy chicken teriyaki was good and had a decent spice. I enjoyed the gyoza but I wasn't a fan of the yakisoba, it fell flat for me. The dressing on the salad wasn't good at all, some kind of ranch. I prefer the typical teriyaki dressing of sesame whatever. If I could give three and a half stars I would but it's definitely not in the four star category. Super friendly workers!! read more

Order was made quickly and price is reasonable. I ordered spicy chicken teriyaki and it was super delicious and spicy! Yummy. There are definitely two other teriyaki joints I'd choose over it but I recommend this place. Nice roomy sitting area for a small teriyaki joint and prices are decent. But don't expect much for teriyaki. I mean, most joints claim to be the best but it's still just chicken with flavors here. Cooked in strips and served with rice and salad. Again, yummy but if you're expecting special, you might want to stick with your favorite place. A little burnt and lots more sauce than needed but still yummy. And the spice is really good, tingly lips haha. So if you don't expect much, then I recommend this place. Thanks for yummy teriyaki! I'm sure I'll be back sometime in the future. read more

Niko Teriyaki - This is pretty tasty. I'm picky with teriyaki but this one is really yummy and spicy in a good way! I ordered spicy chicken teriyaki. - Japanese Near Me - Snohomish, Washington

I'm pretty picky when it comes to my chicken teriyaki and I love theirs. I don't like my chicken burnt and I like the sauce they use. My husband orders the spicy chicken teriyaki and it's pretty spicy. The service is fast and friendly too! read more

My go to for Spicy Chicken Teriyaki. Fresh, fast and yummy for lunch and with generous portions.

Update: I'm downgrading them from 3 to 2 stars because of tonight's experience. I need to eat low carb because I'm diabetic, so I chose to order Kung Pao chicken. Their Kung Pao chicken is nothing like any KP chicken I've ever encountered. Definitely not low carb. It was, again, poor quality meat. It was Orange Chicken that they tried to disguise as KP chicken by throwing in canned peas and carrots (what???) some baby corn, some raw peanuts, and fried onions. None of the traditional celery or bell peppers. Not even cooked peanuts. It was just... yuck. There was absolutely no heat and it was just sweet and bready. Big pieces of breaded chicken so even if I wanted those gross vegetables I wouldn't have been able to get them in the same bite with the chicken pieces, which included skin, fat, and gristle. They only get 2 stars because they're friendly. They really need to try harder if they want repeat business. I could make better KP chicken than this! The owners are very friendly and I really want to like the food more than I do. The flavor is pretty good but the quality of the meat they use isn't acceptable to me. I can't stand getting a bite of gristle (or other piece of yuck) when I'm eating meat. It turns my stomach. Unfortunately, this happens here a little too often. The other downside is that I generally love the salad dressing teriyaki restaurants use, but this one is just a watered down ranch. So, nice people, good flavor, bad quality, boring dressing. Still looking for teriyaki nirvana! read more

i want the previous owners back they knew how to cook each dish to perfection. I paid $50 for chicken teriyaki, chicken fried rice & orange chicken. Everything tasted the same and was the same color. Bland. What a waste of money. I won't be Back. To bad. They WERE the best. read more

Gross! First time I can remember throwing a full lunch in trash! I eat low-carb and I travel. Spicy chicken teriyaki is my jam. I should have asked for my money back, but I didn't want to embarrass the woman at the counter. It was a to-go order. The meat was poor quality. It tasted dry and reheated from previous day. Chicken smelled funny, like a "wet dog"!! The salad was wilted and dressing seemed off, as well. If you want great teriyaki get out of Snohomish. It's a diner town.. Good for home style breakfast and burgers. read more

My friend just moved into downtown Snohomish so we scoped out all the Teriyaki places in town. The first place we went to was out by Fred Meyer in Snohomish and the people were very rude and not helpful. There was a young girl (in her 20s? Maybe) who was working the register. We didn't order. We just left. Then I noticed all the nice reviews of this place and oh my goodness! What a night & day difference!! The young man here is so polite. It was "yes Ma'am, Thank You Ma'am" everything! He was so helpful and upbeat! I ordered the regular Teriyaki and my friend had a custom tofu stir fry. No Bubble tea here, which was the only disappointment. But no worries, we'll be back. read more

I ordered over the weekend sweet and sour and teriyaki chicken. I was extremely disappointed as the chicken was very dry and seem to be old. The sweet-and-sour also didn't taste very well and we decided to throw the rest away in order from someplace else. read more

Love this place. Teriyaki is always cooked right and happy with their customer service with extra concern. Thank you read more

Best teriyaki I've had in a long time. I recommend the egg rolls and gyoza too. I will definitely be back!!

Hands down one of the best teriyaki places in town. The rice is always perfect and the chicken falls apart in your mouth. The sauce is truly what sets this restaurant apart from others. They have been in business for over 20 years and aren't going anywhere. Great price and definitely worth stopping in!! read more

This is the best teriyaki in Snohomish county. Super friendly staff. You MUST try it.

It's okay. The Sweet and Sour chicken I had was dry. My mother's Teriyaki was also dry. The people were very nice, but the food was not good. I feel bad because they worked so hard, but it wasn't good. read more

Niko offers good food from a menu with many choices. There isn't anything here that will wow you, but as one reviewer stated, the quality and service is consistent. They've been in the same location for many years and have developed a regular clientele of people who appreciate this. The counter service is usually friendly, unless you happen to get the guy who is normally in the kitchen. read more

We have a few places in town to get teriyaki but Niko is the only one worth your time and money. The food is great! They are a good choice for dinning in or take out. read more

I wouldn't go out of my way to eat here again. But I wouldn't snub my nose either. I got the gyoza chicken lunch special. The sauce out of the bottle is different than most but not really in a bad way. To me it was just okay. The gyoza was fried and dripped water when holding it up. It wasn't that good at all. The rice was done well. The salad was standard bagged and had an overly salty ranch on it, but not too bad. The chicken was actually the best part of the meal. It had a nice smokey and robust flavor as well as crisp black grill marks. So all things said it deserves the three stars. read more

This restaurant is located in a small strip mall on D Street in Snohomish. there is plenty of parking and seating available. I had Teriyaki Beef with chicken along with salad and rice. While the food was not cooked to order the taste of both the beef and chicken was exceptional. The quantity of the food is high so come hungry to this restaurant. Make sure to have the meal with some siraccha sauce. read more

Good food for Whoever like asian food. You would enjoy the quality of food if you came from big city like San Francisco or San Jose. I ate pork and beef teriyaki with egg roll on side. Both of them are more than good, so yeah.. read more

Great teriyaki, No MSG in the food. Great lunch specials for $4.99. The owners are really nice.. Definitely come again! read more

This place is so underrated.They make bomb Teriyaki and the lady taking the order is always nice and polite

Decent chicken and rice, I always order to go and noticed the salad was soggy and wilted in the little container , 3 times in a row. I was going to make a scene about it next time I went in. Apparently I interrupted the cooks cigarette at the front door, the lady who usually takes the orders wasn't there. He took my order. I tried to ask him a specific question about one of the other dishes, and realized he only spoke 4 words of english. Then as he rang up my order he was mocking my seeming confusion about what was on the menu by repeating under his breath what he thought I had said before I gave up trying to make sense to this moron and just ordered. I had the feeling when I left that he had done something Extra to my food. I'm now afraid to eat there. read more

shit was nasty wouldn't give me a refund on wrongly made order and told me she don't understand worst yaki i have ever had and i'm a yaki enthusiast so i was disappointed will not recommend anyone to go there if you in snohomish go to snohomish teriyaki and also my friend had got corona from there. read more

Niko Teriyaki is by far the best teriyaki in Snohomish, even in the whole Seattle area. The staff are so kind and friendly. I grew up going here and even to this day when I'm back in town, I have to stop by Niko at some point and every time they recognize me and ask me about school and my family. It just really feels like a small town family run business and you can't ask for a friendlier vibe. I highly recommend the gyoza, or if you need a smaller lunch, the student is cheap and simple but delicious. read more

Nikos is awesome! They are hands down the best teryaki joint in town. The service is always fast, efficient, and friendly, and the food is absolutely outstanding! We always get the beef and chicken teryaki, and a side or two of gyoza. They have a refreshing drink variety and they always provide enough sauce to go with. Definately a great place if you want teryaki in town! read more
