Good place but according to these reviews, definetly much overrated – I was reading the reviews, and since the Nakama email with $10 offer for a good review was passed out, there were additional 5 reviews in 10min timeline talking about how great Nakama is. Well, for people that are looking forward to the certificate, just want to say don't get your hopes too high. I, similarly to the guy that posted a negative review, had the experience where I received a certificate in the mail, took three friends at the dinner - bill tota... read more

Best service ever!!! – We had never been to Nakama and I made reservations online for my husbands birthday. We arrived 45 minutes early and were seated right away. After our salad, the chef came over to cook and the grill was not ready to cook our table's order. The waiter took it upon himself to talk to the manager and we were given a discount on our bill for only waiting an extra 10 minutes. We then in turn gave the waiter our discount for the excellent service we had recieved. I can't wait to return and take our kids. LOV... read more

Something to see – As a Parent of three young children me and my husband find it hard to find a restaurant where we can enjoy our meal as well as our children. We prefer our kids eat healthy and not the typical hot dog, chicken fingers, grilled cheese everyone else offers for kids meals. They also stay very entertained thru Dinner and it allows me and my husband to enjoy ours. My kids love Nakama and it is their top pick.

Social Scene – Nakama is not only a place for great food, but a great place to get drinks with friends or co-workers. The bar drinks are among the best and fanciest in the Southside. I would definitely recommend it as a trendy place to meet for drinks and dinner.

Great Sushi – I've eaten at Nakama numerous times and just love the sushi. My boyfriend is a huge fan of the hibachi. Overall, Nakama is a great dining experience and I recommend it to anyone looking for great sushi! The ginger dressing is great too!

Testimonial – My family and I love Japanese Restaurants! When we heard Nakama was coming to South Side we were so excited. As soon as it opened we made reservations to go and, I must say, Nakama exceeded our expectations by far. The food is execellent and the service was wonderful! For every special occasion my 10-year old son picks Nakama to celebrate. (Birthdays, good report cards, or just to have some quality parent/child time.) Quite frankly, there are plenty of times where we just look for a good excuse to celebrate so ... read more
