NaRa-Ya offers a wonderful all-you-can-enjoy brunch with beautiful decor and superb food. The menu features unexpected delights like Steak & Eggs, Whipped Cottage Cheese Toast, Octopus Takoyaki, and French Toast. Guests can enjoy a Japanese fusion menu with traditional items given a modern twist. The seaweed salad, which includes avocado and strawberries, is particularly praised. The pork gyoza is more traditional but still tasty, and the sushi, chicken and waffle, and French Toast are popular among guests. The staff is attentive and accommodating, with exceptional service that has impressed many visitors, especially those with specific dietary needs. The manager goes above and beyond to assist guests, while the service remains quick and efficient. The ambiance is delightful, enhanced by stunning views of the Potomac and vibrant decor, making it great for casual nights out, date nights, and special occasions. The $55 all-you-can-eat brunch is worth it, with small portions that allow guests to savor multiple dishes, while the $32 bottomless mimosas add to the experience. The restaurant features comfortable seating options, including booths and high tops, and offers happy hour deals at the bar. Guests have also noted the clean bathrooms, featuring Toto toilets with various buttons. While the entrance might be tricky to find, NaRa-Ya is a must-visit spot at The Wharf in DC, perfect for celebrations and family gatherings. Recent reviews highlight that the food is always on point and the service is great, with helpful staff and quick delivery of dishes. Some guests mentioned minor issues like billing errors, which were promptly corrected, and one enjoyed a surprise birthday brunch with friendly service and fast food. The rolls are a favorite, and helpful servers like Jesus have made recommendations that enhance the experience. Overall, NaRa-Ya remains a popular choice for a memorable dining experience.
