    We sat the chef's counter and it is such a fun experience. The food is amazing and it is fun interacting with the owner and other staff. I love the atmosphere as well. This is one of the best restaurants in KC. Don't miss the creme brûlée and brownie!

    Dirty martini was fantastic. Food was very underwhelming, but not overpriced at least. I’d go back for drinks at the bar and a snack, but not dinner. Top tier ambience in KC.

The restaurant offers a modern and sophisticated take on Asian fusion cuisine, with every dish carefully crafted and full of flavor. The ambiance was sleek and inviting, making it perfect for both an intimate dinner and a lively night out. The service was exceptional—attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. Noka is a true gem in Kansas City, blending outstanding food, ambiance, and service. I can’t wait to go back and try more of their incredible

    Beautiful restaurant with great service and ambiance. The food was good with great presentation, but a little on the pricey side. It made for a great date night. We were both very impressed.

    My meal at Noka was an absolute delight! The Hamachi Sashimi was a fresh, buttery start, and the Miso Cod was perfectly tender with a rich umami glaze. The XO Fried Rice was delicious! The atmosphere, a blend of modern elegance and rustic charm, added to the experience, making it feel intimate yet vibrant. Our server was superb—attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely enthusiastic, enhancing every evening aspect. I highly recommend Noka for a memorable night of refined Japanese-inspired cuisine. Don’t skip the Brussels Sprouts!
