I had the pleasure of attending the Chef's Counter dining experience with Chef Jason and Sommelier David, and celebrating their 100th seating of the Chef's Counter! The service was impeccable, the food was amazing, and the conversations were sincere. Will definitely be back again and looking forward to Chef's next creations and David's wine pairings.

The food here is phenomenal. Everything I’ve had when I come here is amazing. Excellent service! Didn’t have to ask for anything because they anticipated every need.

We had a lovely first visit to Nami last week for a birthday dinner. All of the dishes were delicious. We will be back!
My first time visiting and Cal was our server tonight and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. He was so knowledgeable about the menu and helped up the whole way through. The food and drinks were phenomenal. I can’t wait to come back again.

I am deeply disappointed with my recent experience at Nami and feel compelled to share this in hopes that the restaurant takes steps to address such issues in the future.
On September 28, my party and I visited Nami for what we hoped would be a pleasant dining experience. Unfortunately, what transpired left us feeling disrespected and uncomfortable. Despite several open tables in better areas of the restaurant, the manager, Melissa, decided to seat us right next to the kitchen. This placement not only felt inconsiderate but seemed to be influenced by discriminatory bias, as we couldn’t help but notice that other diners, who arrived after us, were seated in more favorable areas.
This incident gave us the impression that we were not valued as customers, which, frankly, is unacceptable in any establishment. In this day and age, all customers, regardless of race, should be treated equally and with respect. Unfortunately, that was not our experience at Nami.
I hope the management takes these concerns seriously and addresses this issue to ensure no one else has to endure what we did. We believe in supporting businesses that uphold fairness, respect, and professionalism, and sadly, Nami fell short on all accounts during our visit.

Five-word review: American-style Asian food, sweet and sour, fried. For a middle-aged Asian man, the taste is disappointing. The atmosphere is like a strong-beat bar

As advertised. The experience was great. Food was very delicious and well prepared. Octopus skewers were tender with a nice crisp on the outside. The lamb chops were great as well. Chocolate cake with ice cream topped of the great meal. We came for magical dining and this spot was a home run. The ambience was dim and intimate. Service was exactly what I’d expect at a restaurant of this caliber.
I went late, and the bar was packed. The service was super and high end which is very rare in this area. At that time, they only had small plates and only a very short list,

Nami is another level of dining. The beautiful atmosphere combined with the exceptional depth of flavor in each dish is completely unmatched. Every single dish presented to us was perfection, with different textures and flavors that complimented each other. If you want to further develop your pallet and experience food in its art form, Nami is the place for you. But the best part of our experience had to be our server, Cal. Cal was informative about every, single thing known to Nami from the flavor profiles of the food to the garnishes of our cocktails. He made our dining experience so much more enjoyable with his knowledge, friendly personality, timing of our presented dishes, and his overall charisma. As first timers, my boyfriend said that we will no longer accept any other server unless it is Cal. Thank you, Nami and Cal, for the amazing experience!
We went there for magical dining this time. This place is very pretty. It is inside of the wave hotel by lake Nona. After or before dinner, u can also go enjoy the beautiful art garden there. The service, is by far the best besides disney. It is a nice team work. Our server is super nice! Very knowledgeable! Up-sale is right at the point but too pushy. The food are delicious. The sesame tofu is very smooth. I don’t drink, so I had mocktail amarath. It tasted like ume chi-hai. I enjoyed it. Chicken nuggets had katsu breading, very crunch. Hamachi roll is delightful. The tuna is a little too sweet for my taste, but my husband enjoyed it very much. Salmon sauce is good, presentation is beautiful. The lettuce is the highlight. However, I wish the meat could be m instead of welldone. I think salmon tastes best with soft flesh and crunchy skin. The lamb is great, paired with Japanese style potato salad. Chocolate is super! Dark chocolate, Volcano style, matcha ice cream. Perfect match. Dojima roll has the passionfruit and mango topping, a little on the sweet side, for me. But the sorbet is very refreshing. The fruits give it an acidic and sweet balance. Enjoyed everything. Will come back with friends

I took my wife for her birthday last night. From the moment we arrived, the valet was very welcoming and very pleasant. We were sat and met with our waiter Edwin, who was amazing from beginning to the end. The presentation was amazing and the food was exceptional. He did recommend a few things and was on point. We had the ribeye with wasabi potato, the robata salmon, lobster doughnut, cucumber salad and for dessert panna cotta. All were excellent. I also have to say that at the start, our waiter did ask if we were there on a special occasion, and i said yes , my wife's birthday. They did go the extra mile to make it a bit more special. The service was top notch. We were very pleased with the food and the staff. Amazing. Worth the price.
The atmosphere is great, it’s a beautiful place, BUT we arrived around 10pm so there’s no really dinner available, just appetizers which were very disappointing, not Asian at all! For the price you pay I was expecting more than “4 pcs of chicken nuggets “ for $30 ! Also we tried several cocktails, all awful and overpriced
