Delicious food, excellent service – I've gone to Nakama many, many times and whether it's for sushi or habachi, it's always been excellent!! The servers are always efficient, and the chefs are amazing!!!! It's always more than just a dinner when we go there. I love the fact that they have a rewards program as well. Ever since I signed up I've recieved awesome coupons every few months, which just gives us one more reason to keep coming back! Definitely sign up for it the next time you go there! As for the menu, if you go to t... read more

Fun and Fantastic Food!!! – I think they should open one in DC!!! I went to school in Pittsburgh, but now reside in the DC area and try to get to Nakama any time I'm in PA! The atmosphere is fun, great drinks, appetizers, and entrees! I especially love your eel rol....mmmmm!!! I took my mother there for her birthday and she is not apt to try new foods, but the ambiance changed all that! Fabulous chefs, food, and waitstaff!!

I love Nakama – Nakama is an all-around great restaurant. In the many times I have been there, I have received nothing less than excellent food and wonderful service. The table-side cooking is fun without being "tourist-y" and the chefs are excellent at what they do. The prices are very reasonable and the food is delicious. In the evenings and weekends, the adult bar crowd is great, but I can take my children there for lunch (and I do - they love it, too). The atmosphere is upbeat and friendly, it's always clean, and the emp... read more

THE TUNA IS WORTH IT! – Seriously, I have never tasted tuna like this! I know that sounds silly, but it's true. I have been to Nakama several times, and despite the large selection on the menu, I always order the tuna dinner. I was in Myrtle Beach this summer and went to a fantastic japanese restaurant, Yamato, and while i felt the entertainment provided by the chef was better/livelier, they didn't even have tuna on the menu. As long as you continue to have the tuna, you'll have a faithful patron!! haha : ) p.s. - to those c... read more

Killer food, fun and friends !!!! – I have been to many places now that have sushi and I have to say that Nakama is the best. They offer so many different things that others do not!! The decor is fabulous as well. The place is always exciting. I have never had a bad time - the chefs always make me laugh when I eat at the tables. And I must say the Nakama Como is my favorite drink ever!!! When I have a bad day nothing makes it better than my sushi rolls !!!

AWESOME RESTAURANT!! – I am originally from Pittsburgh but am now in Columbus, OH.....anytime I make it back home, Nakama is usually a spot that I try to go back to. Not only is the food wonderful, but I have always been treated very well by the staff!! Each time I feel like it gets better everytime. I will be in town in 2weeks and my entire family is planning on going. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone that wants great food and great time! Regards, Ashley in Ohio

I Love Nakama – I love Nakama. It is the only place that has great chicken livers. I only wish that they would start to serve the ginger sherbet again.
