It is true what they say about half of the waiters being erratic (and I counted one being excellent), and the portions being small (in the case of the tora sashimi or even the salmon sashimi). Yet, Nami is still a charming little restaurant with better than average service for Richmond, and better than average food for Richmond.

I would say this was one of the most convienently located sushi spots (downtown). Maybe on a slightly pricier side.
Definitely great service the waiter was attentive but not intrusive.
Food was delicious and the decorations were very nice (im a big anime fan)

I started with the house ginger salad, which was fresh and had a really flavorful ginger dressing. The takoyaki was another highlight—perfectly cooked, full of flavor, and definitely something I would order...
