Thank you, Nikko, for the best sushi we've had in a while! \n\nWe felt special from the superb valet parking service to...well...the superb valet parking service when we left!\n\nWe sat at the sushi bar and enjoyed a lovely sampler platter last Saturday, including sashimi, nigiri sushi and a tasty slightly spicy tuna roll.  For a couple of hungry people, the Sushi/Sashimi Omakase is a great value at about $36.  We also shared Age Dashi Tofu with Shrimp, served piping hot with an amazingly rich (almost beefy) dashi broth.  House sake is good.\n\nThis place has incredible atmosphere, and is a great 'night out on the town' place to go.  Decor is gorgeous and modern.  We were dressed pretty casual, but didn't feel under-dressed.  The sushi bar is fun and lively - and the prep line is impeccably clean and orderly.  Fish is fresh-fresh-fresh.  The chefs are well-trained and conscientious.  Bravo to the ownership and management.\n\nFriday and Saturday nights, if you are in the restaurant around 7:30 or 8, you will feel a transformation as the lighting changes and the DJ starts mixing.  It gets LOUD.  But it's fun.  Nikko has great energy!  This is one of Charlotte's best.
