    Every element of our food was made to compliment each other. Appetizer fries are Huge and yum yum sauce is outstanding. 4 of us and we meet once a month. This was one of our very best meals in 20 years of dining out! Bison Burger, Cuban Redfish, Pork Chop. Drinks made truly fresh, Mule and Jalapeno Margarita. Pistachio Cake was different and delicious. This crew moved like a well oiled machine. Everyone looked after us. Sarah B great, attentive and knowledgeable server. Chef super talented. This will not be our last visit

    Service was fairly mid. The server never marked the table (brought clean silverware when she took the dirty ones away) I had to use my partner's knife and ended up eating my entree with a salad fork. My cocktail was empty for a while before she offered a new one. My table also was never manicured (spilled food remained on the table the duration of the service) She was friendly and nice, thought. The restaurant itself was bright, inviting and the patio was cute! I enjoyed the planters with all the flowers and plants! The lights outside were nice as well! Food was fantastic! I especially enjoyed the Bison Burger and their Queso!

    I must say that the food we ordered was excellent. The Bison burger had complex flavors and was the best burger I have had in years. Even the fries were done to perfection. My wife's Ceasar salad was done to perfection as well, which incorporated anchovies. I had only one complaint. The seating was a bit uncomfortable, and our table was unstable. This place is definitely worth visiting.

    The food was fantastic. My favorite was the grilled veggies and naan. Definitely recommend this. Cocktails are delicious. Portions are large too. Jesus was our server and he was wonderful. We will be back.

    Another amazing evening at Nomad! Our party of 6 was there to celebrate a birthday. Our waiter was excellent and attentive. The bartender even visited our table to be sure she was making one. of the drinks exactly how my friend ordered it. The food, as always, is wonderful. I had the Josper Fired Black Cod....what an exceptional dish! We almost all took advantage of the "3 course dinner for $45". What a great deal that is. Living close to Nomad is a bonus for us. We can just stop in during Happy Hour at times on the spur of the moment. Nomad is our favorite "Neighborhood Gem"! Thank again for a memorable evening.

    I have eaten at Nomad twice. The food and service are excellent. The menu selection is not large but the choices are intriguing, I particularly like the Lomo Saltado but have also considered the pork chops.
