Our favorite sushi spot in the city. We normally partake in happy hour (calamari, hand rolls) and get an assortment of nigiri. Thanks, Sonny, for always providing such great service!
Went for our wedding anniversary. The service was great. They took the time to introduce the menu items and explain the chef’s special for today. We got to try fish or parts of fish that we have never heard of before. Overall very good experience.
Absolutely loved NARA! Everything we tried was incredibly fresh and delicious — the menu has such great variety that there’s truly something for everyone. The food feels authentic, and the sake selection is a perfect complement. One of those places where you honestly can’t go wrong with whatever you order. Highly recommend!
Had a great birthday dinner at Nara! I got both the nigiri and sashimi omakase which were delicious. Our server Jenny was fabulous and gave great recommendations.
It has been so long since I’ve had a sushi dinner this great. Every cut of fish was so fresh and tasty. The service was incredible. I loved how knowledgeable and tasteful the staff and chefs were. I absolutely recommend coming here if you love nigiri and sake. All the food items were great. The sake flight was such a fun experience. Definitely will be coming back!
