Namo

TL;DR The BEST sushi experience I've had in America - no on else has come CLOSE! Bring 2-3 of your most adventurous-eater friends and enjoy! At this point I've gone to Namo 3 times - two for a normal off-the-menu dinner and once for one of their special Omakase nights. Every single time it has been worth it. Not only has every staff member been courteous and helpful and taught us about things we didn't know much about on the menu, but the food is to die for. Even from my novice palette, I can tell how much nicer the fish is in comparison with the cheaper local places. They constantly are changing their menu to match the seasonal offers and have a Japanese whisky and sake menu that will leave you wanting the bottle. This is my favorite place for fine dining in Dallas. RECOMMENDATION: It is WORTH finding a reservation with indoor seating at bare minimum. It is a pricier evening, but I would push for the Omakase Wednesdays. Not only is an even more intimate experience, but you will get to try things you might never thought to if it was just on a menu. Mine came with 20 plates - each fish prepared in its own unique way with special sauces and garnishes. For those that struggle with filling up on sushi, THIS is the way to go especially. NOTE: Due to the arrangement of seating indoors, I wouldn't recommend a group larger than four. If you have four, you will most likely be placed on a corner of the box-shaped seating and be able to still all talk together. Anything larger would break up the group a bit.

Really great meal. Our waiter Jay did a nice job recommending everything we had questions about and it was all delicious. The cocktails were also amazing!

We really enjoyed the experience, it was a whole evening of education and delicious food. With almost no sushi experience beyond tuna rolls and fried shrimps, I wasn’t sure I would feel comfortable here. But the server did an excellent job taking us through the menu, and the evening with delicious samples from around the entire menu. I loved every bite. I never felt rushed and was very impressed with the whole evening.

This little sushi counter and terrace in the West Village turn out some of the freshest fish around. Sashimi, nigiri and maki are painstakingly prepared and delivered one piece at a time. Service is friendly, approachable, and always attentive. The small interior space is serene, reminiscent of a place you’d find in Tokyo. They have a wonderful selection of Japanese whiskey and sake that’s worth splurging for. This is surely one of the Top 5 sushi restaurants in Dallas.

An Unforgettable Michelin Star-Worthy Dining Experience ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (5/5) Last night, I had the pleasure of dining at Namo in Dallas with my business partner, and it was nothing short of an extraordinary experience. The sushi we enjoyed was quite possibly the best I've ever tasted, with each bite revealing a symphony of flavors and textures that delighted our senses. The head chef displayed exceptional skill and creativity in crafting each dish. The freshness of the fish, the delicate balance of flavors, and the artful presentation all contributed to an unforgettable meal.
