About

Nama Omakase focuses on the precision of Japanese culinary arts through a curated sequence of seasonal sushi preparations. The kitchen emphasizes the raw quality of maritime ingredients by utilizing traditional slicing techniques that highlight natural textures. Each presentation follows a deliberate flow, balancing vinegared rice with fresh seafood to ensure consistent flavor profiles across every portion. Creative compositions incorporate subtle seasonings that respect the original integrity of the fish without excessive masking. The environment centers on an open preparation counter that allows for clear observation of the technical skills required for authentic nigiri assembly. This establishment prioritizes the direct relationship between prepared portions and the raw material provided by global coastal sources. The result is a methodical approach to seafood consumption that adheres strictly to established minimalist traditions.

The food is really good (although pricey) but the service was quite off, I don't know if it's because they were understaffed or too busy with a big 20 person table. It took forever to get the drink menu & orders, & they asked us about allergies & one of the dishes had something my partner mentioned he was allergic to (mayo = egg). We didn't mention it, & just pushed the mayo off because we didn't wanna bother the servers again. The short ribs came & it was almost all fat & no meat, they were nice enough to change it immediately for us. The vibe is definitely a little bro-ey, fin-tech. We were hoping for a quiet Japanese sushi vibe, but there was DJ playing cheesy lounge electronic music. I recommend Fleurs & Cadeaux instead.

Excellent omakase dinner . Top quality sushi including New Zealand salmon which is a tipoff that you are eating a cut above .
The chef includes nice creative surprises .

Besides the yummy nigiri ..favourites are the dessert … some concoction of ice cream rice pudding & crunchy carmelized sticks. Creative but delicious.
The perfectly cooked magret duck fois gras addition to the omakase is also brilliant & Devine Delish….one of my favourites .

All in all the resto offers good value for money taking into account the higher quality sushi .

Staff very helpful… while chef owner at the sushi bar very warm personal & accommodating to your needs. The resto has a warm sophisticated vibe but not pretentious

Full disclosure… I'm now a local regular … so shilling for this resto is easy …lol Yes I'll be back .
