I had the shrimp hibachi bento box but substitute the California roll for a shrimp tempura roll for a slight upcharge. My husband got the hibachi chicken bento box with a tempura chicken roll. Everything was DELICIOUS!!!! The service was great, the restaurant is very welcoming. We will be back.

Excellent restaurant. A little out-of-the-way for the Albany crowd but well worth it. Easy parking. Handicap accessible. Very clean. Nicely laid out. Beautiful bar. Very large portions. Food was delicious. Real linens is a beautiful touch. Staff very accommodating to children. Very thoughtful on children portions. Delicious dessert. Large variety of foods. Look forward to going back.

Every experience we’ve had has been positive. The staff are attentive and kind. They genuinely seem happy to serve their customers. We had a mix up w a take out order and they apologized repeatedly. On our next trip, the remembered my name and more than compensated us for the mistake. I was blown away by the customer service. And the food? It’s spot on. Fresh, delicious and consistently good. Niji is truly a gem in the heart of Rotterdam and my family and I would highly recommend their establishment.

Niji is one of my favorite places around. Their sushi is phenomenal and their noodle dishes such as the pad thai and yaki udon are delectable. I come here at least twice a month. Such high quality food and on top of that the owners seem like great people. Always friendly, always smiling, always making you feel welcome.

Ate here at the recommendation of friends who are regulars. I got the scallop yaki udon with miso soup. Scallop was flavorful and cooked perfectly. Our group also ordered Japanese curry, Thai fried rice, teriyaki, gyoza, chicken Thai basil, and Japanese noodles, and I sampled some of their dishes. Everything was good. Prices are reasonable. Mixing the Japanese curry with the Thai fried rice creates a delicious flavor explosion in your mouth. I’d say that the difference between yaki udon (chewy thick wheat noodles) and the Japanese noodles (egg noodles the thickness of spaghetti) is analogous to the difference between chow fun and chow mein. The restaurant ambience is cute. The staff are super friendly and patient with the kids in the group.Kid-friendliness: Appetizers as a meal are more than enough for kids
