I had the pleasure of dining at Nami Japanese Restaurant recently, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. From the moment we stepped in, we were warmly welcomed by the staff, whose kindness and attentiveness made us feel right at home.
The food was absolutely outstanding — each dish was beautifully presented and full of fresh, authentic flavour. You can tell that a lot of care goes into the preparation, and the ingredients were of the highest quality. Whether it was the sashimi, the grilled items, or the side dishes, everything tasted incredibly fresh and well-balanced.
The service was equally impressive. The staff were friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive without being intrusive. They took the time to explain the menu and offered great recommendations based on our preferences. It’s rare to find such genuine hospitality these days, and it made our time there even more enjoyable.
The atmosphere of the restaurant is elegant yet relaxed. The interior design blends modern touches with traditional Japanese elements, creating a peaceful and inviting space. It’s perfect for both casual meals and special occasions.
Overall, I cannot recommend Nami highly enough. If you’re looking for a place where excellent food meets top-notch service and a beautiful setting, this is it. I will definitely be returning with friends and family.

I definitely recommend Nami! The food is amazing — the salmon don, tempura, oysters, and sushi were all fresh and delicious. The service was great, and the owner in particular was incredibly friendly and generous 👍 He even gave us several delicious dishes to try!

Proprietor is very friendly, although the young man waiting tables definitely didn't want to be there and never bothered to check on us after giving us our food. We tried to order ramen but they were all out, which was odd since it was literally an hour into their first service of the week (Tuesday). Because of this we asked for more time to check the menu and the waiter then took it upon himself to put the single order through for gyōza which we'd mentioned before finding out they were out of ramen, so this came out long before we'd even had a chance to order other appetisers or mains. The wait for the rest of the food was staggered but not too long overall.
Wakame salad was perfectly seasoned. The tuna tataki sashimi was not bad but seemed to be from frozen going off the pinkish colour and texture. Soft shell crab was tasty but on the small side for $28. The donburi unagi was very good.
All in all not an amazing experience, so I will probably try other local options for Japanese before I return.
