My boyfriend and I consider ourselves some of the biggest foodies and have tried almost all of the “it” Nashville restaurants. This was by far one of the best (if not the best) dining experiences we’ve in Nashville to date. The food was absolutely incredible, service was impeccable (everyone was so attentive) and the atmosphere was amazing (special shout out to the amazing music they were playing). Drinks and food were so so good I will be thinking about it for weeks Could not recommend Noko enough!!!

My girlfriend and I ate here last night, and it was amazing. The best crispy rice in Nashville, and the blue fin tuna crudo special melted in your mouth. We also loved the crab fried rice, and will be coming back soon for the tomahawk. Awesome spot, great service, fantastic outdoor area too. We met Jon and briefly talked with him as he was very personable and wanted us to have the best experience. He even reached out via phone call today which makes this place even better. Highly recommend.

We finally had a wonderful dinner at Noko Nashville ! Everything was really, really good! Service was great the food was delicious and the coconut cake desert was incredible. I love tuna and the tuna here was definitely fantastic. 3-4 plates per person was perfect for us. We will be back for sure!

Liz was the server of our party of 10. She was absolutely amazing and so sweet and helpful. The food was some of the best we’ve had. We tried a little bit of everything and no complaints, amazing!. The owner came and greeted us and talked with us a while, and was so kind.

Such a great date night at Noko. If you’re looking for a local spot that has great food and stellar service, this is the place to go! John (one of the owners) checked in on every table, initiated conversation, and ensured everyone was having a great experience. Our server (I believe her name was Jenna) was super sweet, personable, and very informative!

The tomahawk steak was superb—juicy and full of flavor. The Caesar salad was a perfect complement.

Second time eating at Noko last night for our anniversary. We got the tomahawk steak and the tuna crispy rice. Complimentary broccolini and dessert which were both fantastic. Highly recommend coming here for any special occasion or a date night! The drinks are also delicious!

Had an amazing date night with my husband here! First want to mention the service was phenomenal. From the hostess, to the server, to the server that was training! All amazing and kind. Specifically our server Kylie was fantastic. Super knowledgeable about the food, cocktails etc. Loved her! Food was great! Loved the dumplings and crispy rice. Also get the wings! I felt everything was extremely reasonably priced. Decor is simple but tasteful, and overall I just love that Noko isn’t trying too hard like some new spots popping up. Will be back frequently! Welcome to the neighborhood!

Undoubtedly one of the best restaurants in Nashville. Everything, from the food to service to atmosphere is excellent. My ONLY critique is that our Szechuan green bean dish could have been larger, though they were delicious. The tomahawk ribeye with truffle butter is probably the best steak I’ve ever had- cooked perfectly. Every dish is well-balanced and full of flavor. So happy to have this place in Nashville!

Went to Nashville for vacation and Noko was highly recommended to us. This place was hands down the best meal we had on vacation and for sure will be coming back here every time! The atmosphere and vibe of the restaurant were amazing. You could feel the energy and fun vibes when we walked in. The crispy rice and salmon was our favorite dish – very unique! Our server was very friendly and helped us with our selections for the menu along with our sake, as this was our first time. Overall, the best place we ate all weekend and will be a must stop the next time we come back!
