Excellent Japanese Cusine – I have been to Nakama several times and have always found the food, atmosphere and service to be exemplary. In addition Nakama keeps me abreast of any special events or food specials through a most interesting web site. Cooking at the table is a fascinating work of showmanship and culinary expertise. I would not hesitate ti recommend this establishment to anyone.

Best Restaurant in the Burgh! – I kid you not, Nakama's is the best place to eat in or near Pittsburgh. I have 2 children under 8 years old and they too love Nakama's. I also recently had a business meeting with 5 colleagues here. Several colleagues were from New York City and to say they were impressed with my restaraunt selection is an under-statement! The food is always fantastic. Service is always efficient and friendly, never intrusive. The food is always fresh and in large portions. We always get much more than we pay ... read more

It's all about the food! – In my family, someone having a birthday gets to choose any restaurant for dinner. The last two have been Nakama, both chosen by my teenaged sons. Mine's next, and it well could be three in a row! They love the filet mignon, me the tuna. My only objection is the noise level in the restaurant, but the quality (and amount!) of the food allows me to overlook that. I have a Japanese friend who tells me "nakama" means more than just friend, but a group of friends coming together. This restaurant has brou... read more

WE LOVE NAKAMA!!! – Everything is good -- food, drinks, service -- and some things are truly great, such as the appetizer of Green Noodles (make sure you have breath freshener -- LOTS of fresh garlic!) and people watching (always draws an interesting crowd). The only bad thing is trying to find parking on the South Side, but Nakama even makes that easy with their valet service.
