Customer Reviews
Fun experience and lots of good food. Our chef was entertaining and cooked well, I requested my salmon medium rare and it was so and very good. He gave me some teriyaki sauce, yum! The shrimp as appetizer were tasty. The lomain with veggies was delicious! Even the fried rice was good. The service was good also. There was no music and since we were two we sat with strangers but we could converse easily. Too loud for more than 4 people in those tables. But if you are more than 10 you can reserve a room😁 Overall a excellent experience to be repeated.
From calling to make reservations and arrival, everything went smoothly. Arrived at 5:30pm and were immediately sat and orders were taken. Our cook was amazing. Of course did the Onion Volcano, and train. Such a fun experience as always. Hibachi was delicious as always. Ordered a Sushi Roll and it was FRESH! Very spacious layout with seating for 10 at each table. Our waitress was efficient and friendly. I will definitely be coming back.
Just had an unforgettable experience at Nakato Sushi and Hibachi! The service was absolutely incredible—attentive, professional, and genuinely caring. Now, let's talk sushi: the volcano roll was hands down the best sushi roll I've ever had in my life. And trust me, I’m a sushi connoisseur who’s tried rolls all across the US, but nothing compares to this masterpiece. The house salad was elevated by the perfect ginger dressing, and their green tea shot, topped with lemon-lime soda, was made to perfection. Every dish we ordered was crafted with such care and brought to us with top-notch professionalism. If you love amazing sushi paired with stellar service, Nakato is the place to be!
Food was great. Service was great. But the place is aged. This location has been there for a long time. The wood near the cooking area is splitting and lifting due to age and heat. Time for a partial renovation at least.
Food is alright. Flavor wise more like salty for me. But the grilled mussels is very good. I would love more with just mayo than spicy mayo. Tuna carpaccio also has spicy mayo on it. Made me a little sad because I like ponzu and sesame oil flavor. Anyway overall experience is good.
