Had the Ramen Chicken Katsu with a friend this afternoon. Comfort food done right, hearty, flavourful, and soul warming. Nothing flashy, just solid, satisfying cooking that hits that homemade craving perfectly. Me and my friend were taking our time enjoying it. I'm from London and this was easily the best ramen I've tasted.
had a delicious salmon teriyaki bowl to take away - i wish i had sat in as the atmosphere was lovely. bowl was delicious, perfect salmon and veggies, will absolutely be returning!
Excellent sushi and salmon, good chicken and rice. Small but comfortable room, great background music, nice staff, central location.
I ordered sashimi tuna here for my mothers day treat as well as the ‘spicy’ not so spicy tuna dragon roll. It was not bite sized and some bits were a little bit hard. I’ve eaten a lot of sushi in my life, my favorite thing to eat. This meal left me with food poisoning, thought I was dying. This was the only food out of the norm that I eat. So so sad that you can’t find good sushi here in tunbridge wells.
A Chicken and a Pork Ramen....truly awful...poor quality noodles..salty soup base with such a small amount of poor quality meat and ingredients not enough soup base and what there was was far too salty...the half an egg was also discoloured. Restaurant was cold and devoid of any ambiance. Never again a complete waste of £19.
Sushi looked beautiful and tasted good but not the best I’ve had and the place felt a little cold and lacking in atmosphere. Also no toilets which is strange for a dine in place. Great spot for people watching and sushi is good but I paid £20 for platter shown so not cheap either. Also soy sauce and wasabi all served in sachets even when dining in. Guess it’s more fast food than restaurant.
Niihaw is a fantastic place available for a quick but healthy and satisfying bite. There’s a great range of sushi (in comparison to other places in the area) and it’s genuinely not a bad quality. There’s a 10% TN card discount so that’s always great - they have a few tables for seating - relatively simple decor. They also have bubble tea on offer if interested but this is not something we have tried yet. As well as sushi, they also have other hot items such as gyozas and curries.
Want to help out a new local business and would come back for the freshly made sushi (8pieces), but not the ramen. I wasn't expecting London standards but the ramen was still below my expectation. Small portion even for that price. Maybe you should offer free boiling if the customers want to dilute the soup and soften the noodles a bit more and and allow the flavour paste to properly dissolve, just a suggestion. Hope your business does well in the future but no 5 stars from me.
Niihaw is located at 83a Mount Pleasant Rd, Royal Tunbridge Wells, Tunbridge Wells TN1 1PX, UK
