This DTLA Lunch Special is Too Good to Believe!!

Welcome the twinkle of a few Michelin stars into your lunch routine when you enjoy the $45 lunch special at Niku X. Located at the Wilshire Grand in Downtown Los Angeles, Michelin-starred chef Shin Thompson serves up premium cuts of meat in an equally decadent dining room space where each table feels like its own island.

The Wagyu Grill is expertly prepared by your server, who grills 4 oz of Chefs Choice Cuts for your lunch. They are served with a sauce duo of Chili Miso and Yakinuku.

If the mood strikes you, I recommend a 3-course Wine Pairing, which is just $22 additional and includes any wine on their by-the-glass menu.

The menu is available Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Reservations are recommended.
