We dined at Niki Japanese more than a week ago and were seated at the counter as we were told that all tables were fully reserved even though there were quite a number of unoccupied tables for minimum of 4 pax. it was then around 5pm. However, when we checked out, we noticed that several tables were still empty and a table for 2 near us which was unoccupied at the time of our arrival but was later offered to a single male patron. We didn’t raise the issue at the time and enjoyed our meal quietly, but the experience felt less welcoming when the same skinny bespectacled lady at the entrance reminded us to “make a reservation next time” when we were settling the bill! She said it in a very condescending manner which really pissed off my husband! We have been there a few times since its opening. The food itself was good and nicely prepared — but the handling of the seating left us thoroughly disappointed. A little more transparency and warmth in service would have made the dining experience much better! Since then, we have not return and doubt we will ever patronise the restaurant again!

The friend kitchen also seemed like have been left at the counter for long period and reheat...
Read moreThe staff there were not well trained. When we first enter the shop, no one came and served us, we approached them ourselves.hard to communicate with them. And they r not familiar with the drink or our order kept on serving the wrong drink to us. We are the one asking whether is correct or not and it serves wrongly 2 times to our table. When we haven't finish the food, they kept on wanted to take our food and interrupt our conversation which made us feel uncomfortable. We have to tell them we aren't finishing the food yet. Then they only give up and the staff forced us to speak malay with them. The food there not worth the price and the taste was average only. However the atmosphere was the only thing me and my friends can praise. No...
