Bottomless food for $55 great deal. The only thing is it's a shared experience not your own plate. So table has to agree to select on the menu item. Best thing was the roasted potatoes and matcha pancakes 10's across the board. The steak and eggs 8/10 the steak was highly seasoned perfectly just wasn't cooked long enough to my liking. The Sakura sunrise mocktail was amazing. The French toast was also great not too eggy and honestly good and fluffy. The chicken and waffles 3/10 waffles were burnt and chicken was ok. But the chicken Benedict was great took off the egg and it was good cooked perfectly. Crispy Brussels sprouts-2/10 they weren't crispy it was like they were boiled. Service was good individuals were cleaning consistently and checking in. Just didn't keep my friends bottomless drinks filled. Place is cute tables could be a lil bigger.

I came here for a book event and had a great experience. The ambience was lovely. I tried the Red Thai Curry Sushi, which was good, and a mocktail called Blade — spicy but interesting in a fun way. Overall, it’s a nice spot to catch up with friends or coworkers after work

Hubby and I decided to go for Japanese food for our anniversary dinner. Absolutely good food, though overpriced. We appreciate the celebratory dessert given and our server was fantastic. We got amazing view but that was after the table infront of ours got finally cleaned. We noticed couple of staffs passing the table and picking up one item at a time which took them to come by 4 times to fully clean it up and have it set for a next customer.

Honestly, I loved Nara-Ya! The atmosphere was so nice, calm, cozy, and perfect for just hanging out and enjoying good food. The service was great too, everyone was super friendly and attentive. And the food… amazing! The calamari was hands down the best I’ve ever had, and I’ve tried quite a few. Everything we ordered tasted fresh and flavorful. Overall just such a great experience, I’ll definitely be coming back!

Although Nara-Ya is beautiful, from enterjng the building the hostess was kind of rude however the hostess who guided us to our seat was really sweet. The server made the experience pretty bad. They didnt listen to us at all. We kept saying we were ready to order and he would walk away. When we placed our order we got the wrong thing or it took forever for us to get simple things such as a glass of water. We kept looking for our server when it was time to pay the check and we could not find him. I wasn't sure if the server was overwhelmed from what I can see the restaurant wasn't that busy but there could have been Marcus on the other side. My friend and I both agreed we would not come back.

the food here was a hit or miss. definitely overpriced. we went for bottomless brunch and had the following : - the miso pork belly hash was all potatoes, hard and undercooked. there was tiny small pinch of pork belly almost unnoticeable. flavor was okay
- pork dumplings: not edible. it had a sour taste and weird texture
- brussels sprouts: good flavor super soggy wish they were crisper
-matcha green tea pancakes: this was decent but sweet but can eat
-spicy salmon roll: good
-octopus takoyaki: was too chewy
-steak and egg: don’t even bother really bland and bad
-smoked salmon: good toast
-french toast: bad
-matcha tiramisu: squishy
other wise service was good the food was just bad, atmosphere was really loud but definitely overpriced and don’t recommend. they charge an extra 3.5 % credit card fee without telling you ahead of time, not sure ifs common for the wharf but a heads up!

The food is always on point and the service was great. The only hiccup was the server charged us for an adult meal for our son who's 12. We mentioned it at the beginning but he still notated it incorrectly. We pointed it out and they adjusted the bill. We will be back.
Great customer service thank you Nelson for wonderful customer service 🙏

This place is good like really good. The food and atmosphere are great. I dunno how more people don't eat here.
I don't really go out to eat in restaurants anymore cause i always feel dissatisfied and ripped off by the experience. This restaurant brought back some hope.
All the dishes were unique and flavorful. The carbonara was amazing. The ceviche amazing. The sushi was more than fresh it was intentional in concept which made it worth it. The crab miso was deep and rich.
Server gave us complimentary drink and i don't drink and i got a mocktail without asking. Then the chef came out and said hello.
Its very good food and experience and in an atmosphere where it seems like restaurants are trying to wash us of our money this was not the case. I will be back and may have given me hope again to eat out at restaurants.
