2nd time here, but it's been a few years. Did not disappoint. Eclectic range of options. The wine Wednesday offer was a nice surprise. Ceviche and the rices dishes stood out. Food runners did a great job introducing each dish.

I have now been to Nama Ko twice, and totally recommend it. The service was excellent, the sushi was so good, and the drinks were great as well. Everyone that worked there was warm and friendly, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience!

Food was great! I’ve lived in both Italy and Japan, so it was wonderful to see both cuisines being represented so well. Pizza and pastas were fantastic!

The food is outstanding at Nara-Ya, but even better is the service. The servers, chef, and manager all went to great lengths to accommodate my food allergy and triple-checked to make sure that I would be safe. We also love the view from this restaurant - really a special place!
