Sushi NAKATA, a cozy and elegant restaurant in Old Town Monrovia, offers a delightful sushi experience. The menu features fresh, high-quality seafood, including salmon don, scallops sushi, ono sushi, albacore sushi, and miso cod. Customers often praise the uni as "heavenly" and the red snapper as "melts in your mouth." The restaurant also serves a variety of sushi rolls, such as the Lime Roll and Salmon Truffle Roll, which are described as light, fresh, and very tasty. Unique dishes like Chawanmushi (Japanese egg custard) and Agedashi tofu add an authentic touch and are highly recommended. The Agedashi tofu is lightly fried with a delicious umami sauce, and the Chawanmushi has a savory, fish-forward flavor, served slightly warm.
While the service can be slow at times, the friendly and attentive staff contribute to a warm dining atmosphere. The small space creates a cozy environment with excellent views of Old Town. Prices are just a little higher than other sushi spots, reflecting a more elevated experience. During busy nights, reservations are helpful as the restaurant fills up quickly. Overall, Sushi NAKATA is a hidden gem with fresh blue fin tuna, an amazing miso cod, and a variety of authentic dishes, all at very reasonable prices for the area. It is an ideal place for sushi enthusiasts seeking a special dinner or a satisfying lunch.
