Best Japanese in Pittsburgh – I am being totally honest - Nakama is the best Japanese in Pittsburgh. It's one of the hottest spots on the South Side. If you're looking for great food, excellent service and a sophisticated vibe, Nakama is it.

Best Japanese restaurant and excellent service! – I absolutely loved everything about Nakama. I took my girlfriend there for dinner, and she loved it almost as much as myself. The sushi was fresh, the cook was entertaining, service was prompt, and the atmosphere was lively yet quiet enough to be romantic. The food and service recieved at Nakama was overall excellent, and I would highly reccommend it to anyone, whether you are looking for entertainment, good food, or just a nice atmosphere.

It's "The Place" on the Southside – From excellent hibachi to superior sushi, Nakama is one of the best places to eat or drink on the Southside. Nakama is sure to fulfill your appetite.

Buying Reviews – Nakama should be ashamed. They are buying the good reviews. Do not listen to the raves on this site- they are not pure. Nakama sent a mass email offering $10 to anyone that posted a good review. Look at all the suckers that Namaka bought with $10 for a few simple good words dated 9/18 and 9/19. Honestly, I liked Nakama, but this was a BAD PR move! Although the sushi is good, the place is super crowded, staff rude, and its highly overpriced. If you want good sushi- try Koto Buki, its hidden in North Park- its... read more

Good food, but very loud atmosphere – Good things: We emailed to make reservations and we sat very promptly. I really liked the email option for reservations. Once the food was brought out, it was good. My specialty drink was very good too. Bad things: It is VERY loud in the restaurant and you can not hear the people sitting next to you. Our waiter was on the slower side and forogt to bring us the water we requested 2 times. I ordered sushi and my family ordered habachi items. I asked for my sushi to be brought out close to ... read more

Amazing Sushi, Food, and Atmosphere! – Nakama has amazing sushi and food!! I have been there more times than I can count. If you sign up for their newsletter they send you upcoming events, deals, and coupons which make it even better! If you do have to wait to be seated the bar is a wonderful place to wait with an order of sushi. I would recommend this place any day. The service is always fast and friendly. The food is always hot and tasty!

It's the best all around – I love everything about Nakama. I love the steak, the appetizers and I love the way that a large party can sit at the same table!

Must try the Hawaiian Rolls! – My boyfriend and I have recently started eating sushi regularly and this was one of the first places we ate it. It was excellent and we have gone to at least 10 different places since then, in Pennsylvania and Florida, and it is still the best that we've had! You must try the Hawaiian rolls, they are awesome!
