    Booked a reservation same day at opening time on the weekend. There's a parking structure around the corner and street parking as well. Came to celebrate my father's birthday and I really liked the vibes here :) Great for a celebration. It did take a while for the food to come out and the server was a bit confused where our food was going even though it was noted by the host during ordering. Other than that the food was good. Salmon Filet: 4/5 US Prime Ribeye: 3.5/5 Truffle Fries: 3/5 Mashed Potatoes: 4.5/5 Rosemary Ricotta: 4/5 Would come again to celebrate friends and family based on the ambiance of the place. Not too crowded and more intimate setting.

    With so many dining options in DT Whittier, this place stands out as it has this sexy vibe in a dimly lit yet beautiful and inviting setting with chill music selection serving great food making this place a perfect place for a romantic date night. The main dining area offers a more formal setting while the bar area is more relaxed with half booths and high tops or sit by the bar. Service is courteous, prompt and professional yet not overbearing. The Chilean sea bass is perfectly cooked with nice crisp on the outside and so buttery on the inside (even though a bit too salty in some bites) and comes with addictively tasting cauliflower puree garnished with nicely grilled broccolini. The filet mignon cooked medium rare melts in your mouth accompanied by roasted garlic and cherry tomatoes. Highly recommend the vesper martini - very smooth yet packs a punch and served super cold. Cosmonaut is also great and not too sweet. There's a parking garage nearby but they also provide valet parking.

    Skirt steak, lamb, pappardelle bolognese

    Such an aesthetically beautiful, upscale spot with great vibes. Service, the food and drinks we tried here were amazing! The skirt steak with crispy fries came with a delicious chimichurri. The pappardelle bolognese was one of the best I've had as it was rich, meaty, and perfectly sauced. The herb-crusted rack of lamb was also a standout. Honestly, everything was about a 10/10. I did ask for medium rare, but it came out slightly more rare than expected, just a few more seconds cooked and it would've been perfect. They also have a great selection of wines, bubbles, cocktails, and unique beers, with helpful pairing notes on the menu. Definitely worth driving over to check it out, you won't regret it!

    A new steakhouse in the City of Whittier. The decor were aesthetically pleasing with an upscale ambiance. Ordered the Rosemary Ricotta to start , it tasted so good that my party asked for an additional bread. I had the New York Steak as my main course. It was tender and juicy greatly paired with mac and cheese. The Strawberry Margarita has a perfect balance of salty sweet and sour taste. Lastly, ordered the delicious NY cheesecake for dessert. Overall, food tasted great and the service as well. Our server was very attentive and friendly. I had a great dining experience. Highly, recommended.

    Enjoyed a beautiful birthday celebration with my best friend at the new NYX restaurant in lovely Uptown Whittier. We remembered the location as we had visited years ago when it was Nixon. NYX completely revamped the interior. It is beautiful inside... high end, dark and moody. Loved the decor choices. Our server was wonderful. She gave us great options once we learned the kitchen had ran out of our first dinner options. Our steak was delicious as was our lobster Mac n cheese. Our drinks were great. Will need to return!

    Girl dinner + Vesper Tini

    I really love Nyx for their amazing happy hour deals! I've been back twice this year, once with my girl friend and most recently with my family. You can't beat a girl dinner for $29! Also the drinks are made strong and well - highly recommend for your next HH outing.

    The Cobb Salad was the best Cobb I've had. They had elite which made it. I also had the mashed potatoes, super hot. Delicious. My entree was the lemon chicken. Yum. The ambiance was great; the service was great. The drink menu has been updated. My apple martini was a five star. The Late Check Out was 4/5. I'm keeping with the martinis. See you next week.

    Now every year I somehow forget to make Mother's Day reservations and we end up with bootleg seats and a long wait line... which is basically my dad's nightmare. So this year I told myself I was going to get it together. I wanted something classy, closer to Downey, and after scrolling Yelp I found NYX Steakhouse. I made an online reservation and was actually excited for Mother's Day for once. Then my dad decided a 6 PM dinner reservation was "too late" and requested lunch instead. So back online I went and changed everything to a 1 PM reservation. Mother's Day comes around, we purposely had a light breakfast thinking we'd be ready for a nice steakhouse lunch.We walk in, everything looks beautiful, we order drinks... and then realize they were only serving brunch, not lunch. Apparently they close at 3 and reopen later for dinner service. Unfortunately brunch wasn't really what we were looking for, so we ended up just having drinks and leaving.The place itself looked really nice and the staff was pleasant, but I do wish that was made a little clearer during the reservation process because it definitely felt like a missed opportunity for what was supposed to be our Mother's Day lunch outing.

    Cobb salad, Mac n cheese, and truffle fries.

    My friend and I were looking for a quick bite after our Pilates class in Uptown Whittier and decided to give Nyx a try. We are so glad we did! We both ordered the Cobb salad and shared the truffle fries and mac & cheese. Everything was absolutely delicious. The food was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly done. Tommy, the bartender, was especially great. He was attentive, friendly, and very helpful with recommendations and service throughout our visit. The whole experience was awesome and we will definitely be back!

    two. Ribeye steak dinners with mashed potatoes, and brussels sprouts for the Table to share along with my dirty martini cocktail.

    We had a great experience at NYX Steakhouse in Uptown Whittier and will definitely be back. The cocktails were excellent, and our server, David, really made the experience. My husband prefers sweeter wines, and David was able to recommend one that was exactly what he was looking for. He was personable, funny, and attentive throughout the meal. We started with the ceviche, which was fresh, flavorful, and very refreshing. For our entrées, we both ordered the ribeye steaks with mashed potatoes, and we shared the Brussels sprouts for the table. Everything was cooked well and absolutely delicious. The only downside was that the kitchen was a bit slow. We had a 5:00 p.m. reservation, and the restaurant wasn't busy yet, so we were a little surprised by the wait. Other than that, the food, drinks, and service were all outstanding. Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience, and we look forward to coming back.

    I came across this Gem while I was in Santa Fe springs and I checked my yelp for a steakhouse nearby. It came up and it was just opening so we stopped in without a reservation. It's in uptown Whittier in a nice location with plenty of parking areas on the street it in a lot . From the Front doorway to the walkway it' is a very good decorative restaurant with a cool looking bar top and hi top tables in the Bar area. And regular nice tables throughout the rest of the place. Service was amazing from Jenifer she was very nice and friendly as was the rest of the staff in the whole place. Met other customers at the bar and they were having a great time just like we did. Had a chance to see lil speak easy after hours bar that was about to open as well It was very nice to meet Jason he was very welcoming and personable. Drinks are very well made and have signature cocktails and as for the food. It's Amazing. Form everything that I seen coming out of the kitchen to tables looked very tasty. Our meal was very good and well made I will be back Cheers!!!

    I love this place so much ! It might be my favorite restaurant now ! Isaiah was a server he was warm and sociable . I appreciated his recommendations. I enjoyed the artichoke hearts with a spicy sauce, they have the best bone marrow with cilantro on it. Mashed potatoes or creamy, but the mac & cheese was so flavorful so tasty !! you've gotta order the mac & cheese. You won't regret it.. The steak was to die, for I love the roasted garlic and the sauce . Mouth watering. Let's talk about the drinks they're known for their martinis. They come with a very chilled glass. They're very cold. I ordered French martini, which is Chambord, with pineapple juice, and vodka And we ordered a lemon drop . I'm fond of the decor and atmosphere. Some other staff members came over and gave us recommendations afterwards on where to go for a late night drink since they were closing when we were there. They have a really nice staff all around. !!

    Biggest Artichoke I've ever seen

The sourdough bread they bring to the table was soft and really delicious. I had the Shrimp Fettuccine Alfredo, which was very good. My friends shared the Short Rib Pappardelle, which was a generous portion for two people. We didn't realize it was prepared right in front of you, so getting to watch it being made was such a special treat! The only small downside was that my friends felt the Short Rib Pappardelle needed a little more flavor. They ended up adding some salt to bring out the taste. I have to give a huge shoutout to our waiter! He overheard us saying happy birthday to our friend, and without us even asking, he brought her a complimentary dessert. Such a thoughtful gesture and definitely made the night extra special. Overall, we had a great time and really appreciated the attentive service and little touches that made our dinner memorable!

You can tell the chef is preparing each dish individually by the way that it tastes. It's a favorite go to for me for a social lunch. It invites quality time and conversation. My friends and I stayed more than 3 hours chatting and not once were we met with hostility. A big plus in my book!

    Yooooooooooooooooo! I had NEVER heard of this place before, but my family ended up coming here…read moreafter my uncle's funeral, and honestly, what a great find! We were specifically looking for somewhere with a great price, good food, and a private room where our family could sit together and spend some time after the service. This place checked all the boxes! The Pollo Al Limone was easily one of my favorites. It's chicken breast with capers, shallots, and a lemon sauce, and the chicken was cooked PERFECTLY--tender, juicy, and full of flavor. The lemon sauce had that perfect balance of tanginess without overpowering the chicken, and the capers added a nice little salty kick. Definitely a dish I'd order again. The Tortellini Di Ricotta E Spinaci Alla Panna was another favorite at the table. The tortellini was filled with ricotta cheese and paired with mushrooms, spinach, and a creamy sauce. Super comforting and rich without being too heavy, and the combination of the mushrooms and spinach worked really well with the cream sauce. This was one of those dishes where everyone kept taking "just one more bite." We also tried the Rigatoni Bolognese, which came with rigatoni and a meat sauce. The only thing I noticed was that there weren't any protein in the dish. It wasn't necessarily a bad thing, just something worth mentioning. The service was honestly amazing. Everyone we interacted with was friendly, attentive, and accommodating, which made a big difference considering we were there with a large family after a funeral. The staff made us feel comfortable and never rushed us, and the private room was a HUGE plus for our group. The restrooms were also clean, which is always something I pay attention to when reviewing a restaurant. As far as the ambiance goes, the private room itself was pretty simple--there wasn't really any music or entertainment playing--but honestly, that worked perfectly for our situation. We were able to sit together, talk, laugh, reminisce, and spend time with each other without having to compete with loud music or a crowded dining room. We basically set the tone ourselves. Overall, I'm really glad my family discovered this place. What started as a restaurant we chose because of the private room and reasonable pricing turned into a surprisingly great meal with some really delicious dishes. The Pollo Al Limone and Tortellini were definitely the standouts for me, and the friendly service made the entire experience even better. Definitely a place I'd consider coming back to, especially for a family gathering or special occasion where having a private space is important. Sometimes the best restaurant discoveries are the ones you never even knew existed!
