I have to agree with the majority of people on here...Nakama is a great restaurant. It is definitely a busy place and sometimes (even with reservations - which I have learned to ALWAYS make...esp. on a weekend!) you do have to wait. I definitely think that it is worth it. What do expect from a great restaurant??? Sure, I have had the same experiences with the $ off coupons not being valid at the sushi bar, etc. However, it's just the policy - what's the big deal? We just went back another time and used it in the dining room! Most recently, my husband and I had earned a dinner for four certificate from the VIP card (which is awesome!!!). As luck would have it, we were unable to use the certificate before it's expiration due to an illness. Given the circumstances, I contacted Nakama and explained the situation and they were gracious enough to extend the certificate for a few weeks so that we could use it. I wouldn't expect them to do that in any other situation, but we greatly appreciate it - and will continue to visit Nakama regularly. We love the food at Nakama. As long as you make reservations and plan accordingly, an enjoyable evening can be expected. I would recommend Nakama to anyone - and can guarantee that you'll never go home hungry!
Pros: VIP card, valet parking
Cons: busy
