“ great staff and chefs! the food is always wonderful! AMAZING! We come every weekend for the past year. ”
“ Had a reservation. Seated promptly. Great service throughout: I liked this chef. Wasn't over the top. Started with a miso soup that was plentiful and good. Then the ginger salad. A unique item here are the noodles. Wow they were great. There were some crispy pieces from the grill top and that made it so delish! The veggies were fresh and well prepared. The fried rice was tasty. Had the chicken and steak. Both were good. The teriyaki sauce was good and the condiments were refilled. Great dinner. This location can accommodate large parties. We had over 20 at our table! It can be a bit loud with the cooking and fans. Note like any other similar facility, your clothes will smell like food from the cooking and smoke. ”
“ Always happy with the sushi here. We normally sit at the sushi bar. I can't remember what it's called but the beef and asparagus roll appetizer is amazing!! ”
“ This is our second time at Nakato. We are trying the Nakato tempora roll with Spicy crab #2, the Tuna Carpaccio (a MUST, if your a tuna fan) and the assorted sashimi tray. Sunshine picked out several nigiri and a Spider roll. Everything was spot on. Their fish is limited...standard fair. By far, the Tuna carpaccio was my fav. Nothing extraordinary, but what we had was abundant and tasty! Service was perfect. Our server answered questions and let us have time to take in all the options. To be clear, the sushi menu is limited, but really tasty The restaurant has several (8) hibachi grill tables that seat a dozen people or so. We sat at the sushi bar. If the hibachi grills are on, there is lots of noise and such. If they are eating, the atmosphere is quite subdued. Our bill, with a generous tip was $250.00. To be clear, we had a LOT of sushi, but we only get to have it every three months or so. Sadly, dependent upon doctor appointments. LOL! ”
