This is our second time and we loved it as much as the first time. Service was fast and friendly and food was delicious! It's great when you can share multiple items! Portions were great too!

We can all recognize good food...quality, flavor, preparation, presentation. I have a great appreciation for good food...but truly GREAT food is a rarity. And yet, Nomad hits it hard in the GREAT FOOD category. First off, what an incredible vibe. We were there on July 2...so lots of great energy, people buzzing about and a PACKED restaurant. The decor is modern, yet welcoming. Unusual yet comfortable. We sat at a large booth just next to the wine storage lockers. The little adjacent seating area nearby is awesome. Cowhide rugs, mid-century modern leather and wood chairs, a tree-trunk motif cocktail table. All of it is very cool. We were a part of 5. And let me tell you, it is unusual to have a party that big and everyone LOVEs their food. Inevitably someone says, "mine was good but I really wish I had gotten what YOU ordered." Not this night. We all LOVED our meals. In fact, after splitting the crispy shrimp bao buns as an appetizer, one of our guests turned right around and ordered the same dish again for their entree. I loved the bao buns as well. So soft and luxurious with amazing crispy shrimp. The beef skewers were super tender and full of flavor. The ahi tacos were sublime and super fresh. For dinner I had the chicken shawarma. I really don't love chicken. Truly. It is so boring. but this dish came highly recommended, and while a little doubtful, it was AMAZING. Moist and some of the most flavorful chicken ever. From the olives and goat cheese to the great dill flavors, this dish was an absolute win. I also had a bit of the Flank Steak and Grits and can tell you it was amazing. Other guests ordered the filet and the black cod. Literally everyone said it was one of the best meals they have eaten in a long time. We passed on dessert because we were all so full, but it looked like that would have also been a homerun. Emily was our server, and she was fantastic. Give this place a try, you won't be disappointed.

Wonderful channel side location with great tapas style. Shrimp bao was wonderful along with the shrimp cocktail and asparagus!!!!
Jennifer
Food was bland and overpriced. Ordered the soaghettini and there were hard chunks of lobster shell in every bite.
Kim
This place is ALWAYS interesting. Food is very different and meant to share, and it makes us get out of our usual food! The tuna tacos are good enough that we had them for dessert too! I love the seasonal takes on salads and entrees. It is just very noisy because of the hard surfaces.

Barbara was excellent at making sure we were taking care of and made sure we had everything we needed to have a wonderful dinner for prom!

Many thanks to the NOMAD team for helping to make my wife's birthday celebration so memorable. Great service, food and drink from the moment we arrived. Appreciate you all.
Dana
The food was phenomenal and so was the service! Our server Becky was amazing and on point with all her recommendations. The Bartender made a special Espresso Martini for my wife that wasn't "too sweet" and it was perfect. You can't go wrong dinning here.

Celebrated my birthday there and it could not have been more perfect . From our friendly waiter to the special dish they prepared for us, everything made it a memorable evening for us.
Absolutely loved it here. Food and drinks were delicious. We were spoiled celebrating my husband's birthday. Servers were all so kind and we appreciated being visited by the head chef in the night. We will definitely be back again when we are in the area again.

Took my Mother for her birthday dinner last night while she is up here visiting. Her first time dining at Nomad and she absolutely loved everything. From the moment we walked in til the moment we left. Bryan and his staff were very friendly and a card was even on the table wishing my mother a happy birthday because when I made the reservation I put it was her birthday in the notes. Everything was A1, she told me that everytime she comes up to visit she wants to have 1 dinner at Nomad.

True Artists from the head chef Jeffrey to Christian behind the bar!! This has become one of our favorite places to go since they are always raising the bar as far as adding new and interesting food and cocktails to their menus. All the staff are truly accommodating and very friendly!!
