What TSKnoxville likes about Nama Sushi Bar- Knoxville:
Very good food. My companions raved about the shrimp vegetable tempura (eater says that he experienced , the shrimp dumplings, and the Fantasy Shrimp. I ordered the CHEFS CHOICE NIGIRI PLATTER, which was excellent. The blood orange margarita is very good too. View all feedback. What Alvina Frami doesn't like about Nama Sushi Bar- Knoxville:
Service was average. Kaki panko was delicious with a perfect dipping sauce. The crab and Asiago dip with naan was great. As for the sushi, it wasn’t the best. We got basic rolls so the Caterpillar and eel maki. The eel sauce drizzled over both were very salty and overpowering. The rice was a mix of normal soft rice with some hard grains which was not good. Also the eel in the maki was very fishy tasting, not fresh at... View all feedback.

Great location. hostess was good, not very personal. miso suppe was lukewarm. server seemed a little inexperienced, but good. sushi was good.

Overall, the restaurant received a mix of positive and negative reviews. Some guests praised the excellent service and delicious food, such as the Fettuccine Carbonara and fresh sushi options. Others were disappointed by the slow service, poor ambiance, and overpriced menu items. One guest even mentioned their disappointment in the lack of authenticity in the sushi. However, despite some shortcomings, many reviewers still enjoyed their dining experience and recommended the restaurant for its cozy ambiance and flavorful dishes.
