NSMB U has the best graphics and is the most techincally impressive, it has a few really clever levels and it is in general a very good game.

But to me, NSMB Wii was the best game in general. It had that special status of being the first 2D Mario on a home console since 1991, and it was also the first Mario game to have the Koopa Kids back in it. It honestly felt like the closest thing to an honest to god "Super Mario Bros. 5". Plus, it just had great level design (to me), it had the best power ups of the series, most especially the Penguin Suit which is arguably the most useful and coolest power up this side of the SMB3 Tanooki Suit. And the item inventory system was fantastically set up, whereas the NSMBU power up inventory was very limited.

So yeah, all around, I'd have to say NSMB Wii is the best of the series.
