NIKU X - New York
New York, NY · Japanese Wagyu yakiniku (all-you-can-eat)
Dedicated Wagyu house
Tier 2 · Provenance-Transparent What the tiers mean
Why it's listed
The New York outpost of NIKU X, open since early 2025 and confirmed operating in mid-2026, delivers the group's signature 'unlimited A5 Wagyu' experience. Wagyu is the entire concept, spanning Japan, Australia, and the US, with Toriyama Umami Wagyu (A5) from Gunma Prefecture named as a featured Japanese selection; Australian and domestic cuts round out the program. A5 is applied only to the Japanese beef. Provenance is partial, strongest for the named Japanese producer. Not to be confused with San Francisco's Michelin-starred Niku Steakhouse; this venue holds no Michelin star.
