THEY ARE PAYING PEOPLE TO WRITE REVIEWS!!! – THE REASON THE RATINGS ARE HIGH IS BECAUSE THE OWNER BRIBES PEOPLE TO SUBMIT POSITIVE FEEDBACK!!! I'm known for consistently having a small appetite and usually am satisfied with children-sized portions when I eat out. However, while dining at Nakama I found the full-price portions to be much smaller than other Japanese steakhouses offer and twice as salty. Considering what they charge, I would expect a much larger portion of food. Needless to say, after the meal I was still hungr... read more

GREAT SUSHI ROLLS AND SASHIMI! – Nakama is a great place for anyone that is interested in trying sashimi/sushi for the first time, and veterans can enjoy themselves too. I have bad experiences with sashimi (raw fish) in the past, and was unwilling to give it another shot. After much convincing from my dining companion, we were off to Nakama. I was DEFINITELY impressed, and so glad I gave 'raw fish' another chance..it was SO fresh here, and the wasabi and soy sauce provided were the perfect compliment...absolutely tantalizing... read more

Fun Atmosphere! – I went to Nakama a little while ago to celebrate my boyfriend's brother's birthday. The atmosphere was fun and suiting for large parties! My boyfriend hasn't stopped talking about it since! We will actually be going for his brithday next month! Sure it's dark, and a little noisey, but what restaurants aren't any more. It didn't bother me in the least! I actually enjoyed the fact that it was a little loud - It made me feel like everyone there was really having a good time! Everyone really enjoyed the food, t... read more

Awesome Atmosphere – I tried Nakama at the suggestion of a friend and was pleased to be overwhelmingly satisfied with the food and atmosphere. In the heart of Southside, Nakama offered a sense of style with my dinner. My date and I opted for the Sushi bar. I would have to rate Nakama as one of the best in town when it comes to sushi. I would definately dine there again.

The Best Apetizing sushi – I loved everything about the restaurant. The real live grill with lots of fire. The Sushi was to die for. I love eel and as soon as i took a bite of it i thought i was gonna melt.
