N/Naka was phenomenal. What an amazing experience! Each dish Chef Nikki created was so delicious and it was all so beautiful I didn’t want to eat it! The staff were all so friendly, and very attentive to all our needs. Never had to ask for more water or tea. Quickly took away finished plates to bring the next dish. 4 from our party had a pairing with their dinner and all enjoyed it very much! I will be dreaming of this night forever! Thank you Chef Nikki and team for making this such a wonderful time for my family and I. I hope to be back again one day!

Had an extraordinary culinary experience at n/naka last night. I understand why it’s so hard to get a reservation… It was without equal. The best meal I have ever enjoyed.

Eating at n/naka was an experience unlikely anything I have encountered before. I’ve been dreaming about eating here since the documentary came out and once I did get the reservation, the hype built day by day. I had such high expectations coming here and was worried that they might not be met, however, days after I have eaten at n/naka I am still enraptured by the night that I dined there.

Every dish was fantastic. Amount of food is great for an Omakase, they also give you an option of a hand roll (not pictured) if you are still hungry. Pictures are in order of the course from start the finish

This is a restaurant you go to for a special occasion because it is so well-liked and challenging to reserve a table. There were uncountable courses served, starting with the appetizers, and every one of them was outstanding and impressive. Three staff members simultaneously brought out each person’s dish even though there were only three of us, demonstrating their thoughtful and caring service. Few restaurants give customers such consideration. Although the atmosphere in the restaurant is not opulent, it is warm and inviting, allowing you to unwind and enjoy your meal without feeling intimidated. At the conclusion of our meal, the owner chef stopped by to say hello. His warm demeanor made a lasting impression. Here is

Do yourself a favor and dine here if you get the chance. Thought-provoking food that felt like a journey. The attention to detail is everywhere in every aspect of the dining experience. Definitely lives up to the hype and deserving of 2 stars.

We saw N/Naka on chefs table season 1 and was intrigued. The 6 of us not only thought that the food was epic and up to the 2 Michelin stars but the waiter was amazing! It’s a very small space and it felt like he was there just for us. And the unique sake’s was really different and interesting. The easiest way to score a table is get a group of 6 together. These places have to figure out a way yo stop people from scoring a 2 top and selling on those bid for a table web sites. Go if you can it will blow your mind.

This is a restaurant that you go to for a special occasion because it is a very popular restaurant that is really difficult to book. The number of courses served, starting from the appetizers, was uncountable, and all of them were impressive and excellent. We went with three people, but three staff members simultaneously brought out each person’s dish, which showed their thoughtful and attentive service. There aren’t many restaurants that provide such consideration. The restaurant’s atmosphere is not luxurious, but it has a warm and welcoming feeling where you can relax and enjoy your meal without feeling intimidated. The owner chef came to say hello at the end of our meal, and his kind and friendly personality left a very positive impression. This is a restaurant that will leave a lasting memory, and I truly feel lucky to have had the opportunity to dine there.

2nd time here and it definitely didn’t disappoint. First time was in Jan 2018 and they have since been awarded 2 Michelin stars. Chef Niki Nakayama definitely knows what she’s doing and continues to innovate. Definitely recommend this place if you are able to get a reservation.
