    We thoroughly enjoyed every element of our experience dining at the Chef’s Counter. The evening was well-paced and filled with spectacular food, wonderful stories from Chef Jason, and several delightful surprises. The service was excellent from start to finish, and it truly felt personalized in an authentic way. We HIGHLY recommend adding on the wine pairing. We had so much fun with the sommelier, David, each time he introduced the paired beverage, and we could tell he truly loves and has fun at his job. This evening’s dining experience was one we will not soon forget. Absolutely worth every penny.

    An unforgettable culinary experience. We celebrated my husband’s birthday at Nami inside the Wave Hotel, and it was nothing short of extraordinary. The ambiance was sexy, the service flawless, and every dish—an inspired work of art! Can’t wait to go back for the Chef’s Counter Experience! A big Congratulations to the Nami team on their well-deserved 2025 Michelin recommendation—an accolade that truly reflects the excellence they deliver.

    It was our first time! My fiance and I had a celebratory dinner and sat at the bar. The bartenders provided excellent recommendations. My fiance is not the most adventurous food wise however he enjoyed every bite which made it a mutually exquisite experience for both of us. We will be back! The octopus and steak have become our latest craving.

    I'm so glad I chose to celebrate my husband's birthday at Nami. It was the perfect evening from start to finish. The hostess wished my husband a happy birthday upon our arrival. Every recommendation that our server, Tyler, provided was spot-on. We enjoyed the lilac and cedar cocktails (both were excellent) as well as some sake. We shared the salmon toro special (as recommended by Tyler), hamachi, and tuna maki which was all brought out together first, thoughtfully. Then we had the octopus, lamb chops, and mushroom side. Everything was excellent and I would order it all again. For dessert, we had a complimentary raspberry dessert for my husband's birthday and we also ordered the golden rocher (per Tyler's suggestion). Both were the perfect ending to a great night. The food, service, and atmosphere are truly the best.
