“I also added a crunch roll to my order, and it was made to perfection”
I wasn't a huge fan of this. I tried the Tonkatsu Ramen and Wagyu handroll.
We had to return the hot and spicy food and the fried chicken dish by texture and flavor felt like it came from a freezer, deep fried and served it with sprinkled pepper flakes.
I have been ordering from Niu B for a while since it’s down the street from where I live.

“Stopped in for a late lunch on a Friday.”
Stopped in for a late lunch on a Friday. Ordered the Bento Box lunch special and it was plenty of food. The spicy garlic ramen was flavorful. The spicy tuna roll was enjoyed by everyone at the table.

“Excellent place for a night out in the Michigan Ave area.”
Excellent place for a night out in the Michigan Ave area. I really loved the lychee martini and the lava cake. The sushi was excellent. The tuna tartar appetizer was excellent.

“I saw Niu B while I was walking to another, and I am glad I changed it up.”
I saw Niu B while I was walking to another, and I am glad I changed it up. I had an amazing dinner and time here. I had never tried Takoyaki before, and Niu B set my expectations high! The chicken karaage was amazing too. With the residences attached, it made part of the atmosphere where the staff and regulars are almost like kindred spirits, felt like home.

“Love everything about this place.”
Love everything about this place. Ordered Cherry Blossom for appetizer, Ichigo roll, Chirashi and Salmon Lover, and they were all very delicious. The fish was so fresh and buttery.. Also if you are lucky to get the seating that faces towards the park, the view gets really gorgeous in the late afternoon :)

“Niu B was a solid find just around the corner from our hotel.”
Niu B was a solid find just around the corner from our hotel. Chill atmosphere, quick service, and the food was on point. Sushi was fresh, noodles were flavorful, and the whole place had a laid-back vibe without trying too hard. Definitely worth walking a block for.

“A nice place for a quick meal before going back to work or visiting the city.”
A nice place for a quick meal before going back to work or visiting the city. Indoors and outdoors tables. Choice of Japanese or Chinese classic dishes. Natural, minimalist decoration. Courteous service.

“We decided to stop in for the first time, and we really enjoyed the food, atmosphere, and our server Tan.”
We decided to stop in for the first time, and we really enjoyed the food, atmosphere, and our server Tan. The Rainbow roll was amazing, and the Lunch Bento Box was a very good mix of items for the price. Our server was kind enough to take some pictures of us for the meal and was very helpful when ordering. We are definitely going to stop by again in the future.
