It was our first time and really amazing! My girlfriend and I love tapas style, and Noko was on the list for a while. Marissa was sweet to hold our reservation while we were stuck in traffic, Julian was very attentive to our table, Kylie was a so sweet and even gave us free pineapple sorbet, and John gave me a call the next day to ask how our dinner was. I work in a luxury hotel and love to see amazing customer service!

11 out of 10 Favorite bites were the chutoro and the otoro toast with alittle uni on top. Cocktails were all amazing Price is very reasonable And it’s worth to add some of the ala carte options like the tuna truffle and uni Didn’t feel rushed even though the experience is limited to 90 minutes. Received countless reminders leading up to the dinner regarding the timing and expectations. Can’t wait for my next dinner there!

It has been a long table to eat here because of distance, so we were glad they opened a restaurant at Opry Mills. We’ll be even happier when they open the restaurant on Golden Bear Parkway. The food was like we remembered except for the lettuce leaf they use for lettuce wraps … need to go back to the original size. We will definitely be back.
