Nasime Japanese Restaurant

Took my friend here for his birthday and we had an incredible tasting menu. Our hostess and server Yoko was excellent and the chef was also friendly. The tasting menu was limited but brilliantly curated, with remarkably creative items and well attended presentation. They really take care and pride here in what they serve, and it showed on the plate and with each memorable bite. MAINE UNI & CANADIAN SABLE FISH TAMAMUSHI - superb start to our meal, the uni was fresh and heavenly SEARED JAPANESE WAGYU W/ TRUFFLE SHOYU - scrumptious steak with incredible well placed accents OTSUKURI (SASHIMI) - some of the freshest fish I have ever had SPANISH OCTOPUS AGEDASHI - enjoyed this, just not as much as the other dishes CHAR BROILED NZL LAMB CHOP "HOBA-YAKI" W/FOIE GRAS MISO - superb flavor, rob

Fantastic dining experience. Interior is intimate and peaceful. Each dish is prepared with great thoughtfulness and care and a delight in taste and presentation. Highlights were the wagyu beef and cod. They even accommodated a shellfish allergy upon request. Very happy with the experience and hope to come back again soon.

We had a wonderful dinner for my husband's birthday. Very fresh ingredients and an interesting menu. Our server helped me find and try a couple of different types of sake that I liked.

This review is skewed since the chef was by himself and had to be the waiter while being the chef as well so there service got dragged out by a lot. Really disappointed in the sashimi and udon course. How is it that my friend and I are both paying $120pp but we have to share a sashimi platter? That makes no sense. And how do you give 3 pieces of each fish instead of an even number? I also noticed that a lot of people were using the American Express Platinum Resy credit but the chef didn't know how to split payments. Even if his manager is on hand usually to take care of things like this, he should know stuff like this.

Amazing 7 course dinner experience at Nasime!! We loved the variety of dishes and the ingredients. The chef and staff came by every course to present and explain the dishes. They were very attentive and accommodating with my shellfish allergy and checked in via text on the day of to get clarifications. Also, very glad they had mocktails. The seats are limited and given our dinner was almost 3 hrs, reservations are a must. Parking was easy on a weekday evening around King St and it’s walkable from the metro.
