My husband and I went on a Friday night. Our wait was less than 15 min which was great. The food was delicious and the staff was attentive. I do recommend and I will go again.

BEAUTIFUL restaurant! I was a fan of Nikkori in Matamoros back in the 90's and the nostalgia hit as soon as I opened the door. I am not a fan of Maki rolls but they do have a large selection of Jap-Mex fusion rolls. I ordered a few Nigiris of Tuna and Salmon with thier fried rice and a craft of Sake... BEST Japanese meal you can find in Brownsville!

Nikkori is the best! Alex Lopez, aka “Chef Alex” , is the General Manager and he gave us the best service. He checked on us the whole time and really made sure everyone in the restaurant felt taken care of. Our server Joey was also awesome and always had a smile and provided my wife and I great service. The owner Sergio was there too, and Head Chef Jesus made the food perfect. My wife and I had the Edamame, Nikorri Dynamite, Marco Roll, and Vegetable Yakimeshi. Everything was delicious better than I remember from my childhood visits to Nikkori in Matamoros. Best sushi we have ever had. Can’t wait to go back!

Great place! Those of us who have known this restaurant since it first opened are familiar with all these dishes from the very beginning. I ordered the Salmon Crunch, Sunomono salad , Salmon Sashimi , etc - same amazing flavor as always, even better! The atmosphere is super relaxed and beautifully designed, perfect for enjoying great food and good conversation. The service was very fast, and our waiter treated us wonderfully. Definitely one of my favorite spots in Brownsville!
