★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Anthony Yu · Mar 2026

This was a restaurant we used to frequent once every couple of months as we enjoyed the sushi and sashimi set. However, the service here on our latest visit was very disappointing and made it extremely hard to enjoy our dinner. We had a reservation at 7:30pm for a party of 5 and we waited for about an hour and fifteen minutes for the food to come out. There was no communication from our waitress about the status of our order and we watched other tables receive their order, finish their order, enjoy dessert, and leave before we actually received our order 25 minutes from closing. I understand restaurants can be busy and sometimes unexpected events can occur, however, there was no communication from our waitress, no checking in to see if we would like an appetizer or some drinks in response

disappoint me here. It was Very nice sushi I always enjoyed But not this time. The (owner ?) lady was too loud never stop talking. Compare to 10 month ago … It was not the same quality I had special of day Oyster tempura but it looks like over cooked or reheated it was so hard..

Good food, creative, scallops apertizer was really good, sashimi was fresh, mussels were done well service was great and price was decent for the quality and portion of food. We tried the Omakase and it was pretty good. Steak was tender but not melts in the mouth type of steak.

My husband and I have been meaning to check this place out for some time now and finally decided to dine here for dinner. When you enter, it seems like any other ordinary Japanese restaurant and gives a comforting atmosphere. Once we were seated, our server was very attentive throughout the night and made our dining experience pleasing. For appetizer, we tried their ankou karaage (deep fried monk fish) and tempura appetizers. The monk fish tempura was great, but definitely very filling. Then we ordered our sushi set - my husband tried their sushi omakase and I decided to stick with the chef special sushi. We were blown away by how fresh it was and each piece tasted so good to the point they melt in your mouth! We’ve been searching for an authentic japanese sushi restaurant near our place

My family has enjoyed Nakahara for several years and it’s always fantastic. The fish is very fresh, the atmosphere is clean and cozy with gentle jazz in the background and the service is attentive and friendly. There are many sushi options in the area, but this is one of a kind!
