    We all had an awesome time celebrating my wife's birthday. Food was excellent, service was as well. Venue is great. A bit pricey for some items, but the small plates are a perfect way to build an amazing meal for a group and keep the price reasonable.

    My wife and I celebrated our anniversary at NOMAD, and it was an unforgettable dining experience. From the expertly crafted cocktails to the delicious entrees and desserts, every detail was thoughtfully executed. We started with the Nomad Old Fashioned—smooth, well-balanced, and the perfect start to our evening. The Aperol Spritz was light and refreshing, setting the tone for a delightful meal. Our appetizers—Pesto Burrata and Sticky Ribs—were absolute standouts. The burrata was creamy and rich, while the ribs were tender and packed with flavor. For the main course, the Wagyu Meatballs were a savory delight, paired beautifully with a bottle of Chateau Du Courlat. The meal was capped off with the indulgent Banana Split Gelato; and the restaurant surprised us with a Anniversary Dessert, adding an extra touch of thoughtfulness to the night. Service was impeccable, and the ambiance was just right for an intimate anniversary celebration. NOMAD exceeded our expectations, and we highly recommend it to anyone looking for a refined yet welcoming dining experience.

    Dined on 5/23/25 Memorial Day weekend, one adult, two children. Kids Experience: They do have a kids menu that has a decent selection, and good portion size. The two girls were able to split a hamburger and fries and still be satisfied. Adult Experience: I had the Ahi Tuna Tacos, Caesar salad, and the Greek Chicken Souvlaki. All three together was quite a bit of food so I took some home. Service: Had a very nice server named Erica, would definitely recommend her. She was very attentive and had our food paced perfectly. Bartender that made my drink was named Lauren, she was very lovely and was able to make a drink that was not listed on the menu. Food: Ahi Tuna Tacos: Order of 3, manageable two bite tacos. Nice chunks of tuna inside, the habanero drizzle on top is a pleasant amount of heat without being overwhelming, the flavors continue to travel well with the addition of the avocado and it rounds itself back out with the sweet delectable sprinkle of dried ginger that it is garnished with. There was a sauce underneath the tacos that held them in place from sliding around the plate that I should’ve asked for more of. Nomad Caesar: Large portion, easily shareable with two to three people. Croutons were well seasoned, had plenty of crunch and maybe were focaccia in origin. There was a massive Parmesan tuile that I broke up into small pieces for a nice salty surprise throughout the dish. The only thing I wish I had done was ask for more of the charred lemon, to be able to squeeze on top. Dressing was well balanced, not overbearing with the anchovies or garlic and had a great texture. I was told there was an option to make it a full meal by adding chicken, shrimp, or steak which would’ve been a great idea. Greek Chicken Souvlaki: large portion, easily shareable with two to three people. Six skewers of juicy marinated chicken atop a wonderful muhammara sauce. A generous dollop of airy whipped feta and the plate was garnished with a salty kick from the Kalamata olive

    We love NoMad!!! (With one big exception… ) We always have excellent service and interesting food. Last night they graciously moved us from outside as a storm approached!!! EXCEPTION: The noise level inside needs to be addressed with sound deadening improvements. We were table of 4 and had to lean together to hear each other. THIS has been a problem since day 1. We have even talked with the owners. Yet, nothing has been done… DISAPPOINTING…

    Meals were outstanding. View of the bay was great. Will be back next week. Many restaurants, in the area are very good, but the food here, is the best.
