Was Laura Lopez at Nomai a mag?
My husband and I enjoyed Nomai for a rare date night and we were not disappointed. The food was extremely good and we enjoyed the unique choices, but also appreciated that we could have gone with burgers if we decided to. We started with bao and calamari and I ordered a delicious cocktail. We both opted for the ramen bowls, mine regular and his spicy. The first sip of the delicious broth told us that we made the righ... View all feedback.

What MaryG dislikes about Nomai:
The atmosphere was really nice, however everything else was just okay. Our service was extremely slow. It got to the point where we almost left. The food was good, but took too long to come out. Overpriced and underwhelming. Everyone in our party said they wouldn’t go back. View all feedback.

The drinks were pricey, but everything was amazing! Just know going in that it won’t be inexpensive, and you’ll be happy you tried it.

The food was fresh and amazing! I loved every dish but the dessert but that’s ok I will definitely be back. I would suggest not going on Sunday because they have a limited menu. The waiter was so kind and the vibes were great. This is definitely a great restaurant for a date or even a family dinner.

We had ate off of the non-sushi menu and the food and the service were both excellent.

I am looking forward to going back. The good was delicious.

Nomai presents an intriguing fusion of Asian flavors, showcasing standout dishes such as sea scallop skewers and filet mignon. While many patrons rave about the attentive staff and beautiful ambiance, some critics express disappointment over a limited menu and inconsistent food quality. The peking duck bao has received notably negative feedback for underwhelming execution. Pricing has also raised eyebrows, with several diners feeling the meal doesn’t justify the cost. Nonetheless, the restaurant garners loyal supporters who recommend it for its delicious offerings and charm, making it a noteworthy destination for sushi and creative Asian cuisine enthusiasts.

I finally had the opportunity to visit this restaurant. I was craving sushi and a refreshing Sunday drink to get ready for the week ahead. They have a great variety of Japanese whiskeys, and the staff is exceptional. The sushi and ramen were excellent! If you're out shopping, be sure to stop by for a perfect meal and break. I would rate the food, service, and atmosphere all a perfect 5 out of 5.

We had an excellent experience at this restaurant for our 21st anniversary. We ordered several small plates but couldn't resist doubling up on the duck bao, which we found to be the standout dish. However, everything was delicious. We also tried the black sesame ice cream sandwich, which had a unique and savory flavor mixed with the sweet ice cream. We highly recommend it. The service was great and we dined in for dinner. The price per person was between $50 and $100. We suggest trying the Peking Duck Bao and the Black Sesame Ice Cream Sandwich.

I stumbled upon Nomai while taking a break from school work and exploring the shops. Though I had initially planned to eat at CAVA, the ambiance of Nomai drew me in. The decor was calming, and the evening sun created a beautiful atmosphere. The waitress/hostess was friendly and helpful, and after asking a few questions, I decided to dine at the restaurant. I arrived after the crowds had left, but I recommend making a reservation if visiting on a weekend. I ordered the heirloom eggplant bao and it was delicious, a light dinner perfect for my grocery shopping afterwards. Though I didn't catch my waitress's name, she provided top-notch customer service. I will definitely be returning to Nomai in the future. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Neatly tucked restaurant in the Derby street mall. The food is tasty and the spread of Japanese drinks is awesome. Loved the crab sushi and matcha maker. Will definitely visit again. Watch for the timings as they close little early on weekdays. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4

The food at this restaurant is average and very overpriced. One dish, fried rice, cost $28 and was nothing special. The fried chicken was hard and crusty, making it difficult to eat. Another dish, noodles with carrots and beef, was undercooked and overly salty. Overall, the food was not worth the $80 per person price tag, especially considering there was no alcohol included. The quality and presentation were poor, and the decor was unimpressive. I would not recommend this restaurant to my friends, and I doubt it will last long. Good luck.

The service was subpar. It took over 15 minutes for our server to come over and greet us. Lots of people running around everywhere, looked like 2 managers were on at the same time, but not offering help just taking up space. Food was okay… would have been a much better experience had the service been elevated.

The calamari was tasty and the bread was light and not greasy. The fish was decent, but my friend thought his carrot noodles tasted like Dinty Moore beef stew. Overall, the meal was not worth the prices.

I had high expectations for Nomai, and while it was still really good, I was a tad bit underwhelmed. The food was good but I felt like it didn’t blow me away and I thought it was more expensive than it was worth. I’d go back, but probably not for a while.

It was a delightful summer evening when we visited NOMAI, and we absolutely loved it. We plan on returning again in the future! The ice cream flight was both enjoyable and tasty. Our only complaint was that the main courses were a bit too salty for our liking. Next time, we will make sure to inform our server to go easy on the salt, not because we are on a low-salt diet, but because we couldn't finish our meals due to the excessive saltiness.
