Reviews for Nanami Sushi Bar & Grill in Austin, TX
Lovely lunch w a friend. We both got the Bento box. Beautiful presentation, generous amount and variety of food, very good... tasting! Great service. We will go back! Read more
I have eaten at Nanami plenty over the last 5-10 years. Usually the food and service is a solid 4.5-5. This evening however... every single piece of eel on my Dragon roll had multiple bones in it. This is definitely an issue that I haven't had beforehere. It was problematic enough to mention however. If I have never been here before I probably wouldn't come back which wouldbe a shame as usually the sushi is very good. Read more
It was good. Pricey for my taste, but good nonetheless. One of my pet peeves was that they didn't have a "Sides" option in the... menu. I usually get myself a side of Fried rice with my sushi. But they didn't have that option. Other than that, the ambiancewas very nice, place was Clean. And they use quality, disposable chop sticks here too! Read more
I have tried many places around Austin and this was the first sushi was actually inedible. The spicy salmon roll was slimy,... smelled insanely fishy, and was obviously on the verge of rotting. The philly roll was slightly better, but the fish was chewyand salty. The rock and roll avocado was brown and it looks like the shrimp was molding on the bottom. I attempted to eat it,but it was the worst, oldest tasting sushi I've ever had. Definitely getting a refund. Read more
I tried it once more after we went once a very long time ago when they first opened and we’re not impressed. It was even worse... this time. $10 “Kani salad” that was not only the smallest of portions but just simply was some sliced cucumber andimitation crab and made at all like a traditional kani. But I was shocked at the size for $10. The baked avocado also was smalland slapped together and a mess when I opened it. So an $11 avocado with imitation crab and Mayo. Then the yellow tail collarwas flavorless and dry (so shocking because it’s difficult to do a collar poorly, it’s such a delicate tasty cut). When wewent before we had the “hamachi rice” which was terrible. We love places like Eurasia, Kome, and Otoko is just incredible,and I don’t mind spending money on good food, but even spending $40 on a terrible meal is just not ok. If you can’t make thebasic things right for just quick lunch, I can’t imagine the rest. Read more
I’ve been going to Nanami for years and simply love this place. The food is fantastic and the value is unmatched. I had my... birthday there several years ago and they were so wonderful that I decided to host my partners surprise birthday party therethis last September. They were unbelievably accommodating. They put together seating for 16, setup a table for our gifts andcupcake tower, let us come early to decorate, and even played music that my partner likes. On the food front, I highlyrecommend the boat for three (for two, haha) that is shown in the photo. That’s what my partner and I always have. So muchgood sushi. Delicious! Read more
We were going here for date night planning to spend a few hundred. We were probably only 2 of 6 customers in the restaurant and... we sat at the sushi bar. It took about 20 minutes to get drinks which was fine, then they finally came back and we got edemame,which was great. Then they never came back to order our food or check on is so after an hour we went to Uchi and spend 200$ atthat fine establishment. Don't waste your time or money here. But they do have a cool saki botttle. Read more
Our experience with Nanami has always been very positive. We usually order food to be delivered. Our order is always correct and... arrives in good condition (important for sushi rolls). Their teriyaki chicken bento box is a huge meal and delicious. TheLover's Roll, in particular, is good. Make sure you ask for a side of their spicy mayo. Read more
