    I was very excited to go to this restaurant to see the Christmas decor. Let me say it was just gorgeous inside with all the lights and decorations. Service was a bit slow but understandable because the restaurant was packed. However our server was attentive and helpful when selecting our meal. My boyfriend enjoyed his taco salad with steak. To be honest, I was expecting something a bit different for my steak. I didn't expect it to be smothered in some type of a chili sauce. It was tasty and I did like it, but I would have done better with some tacos. Now I know for next time. I would definitely return in the future to try the tacos.

    Nomada is the newest addition to the Skopos restaurant group. I love all of their other establishments and looked forward to checking out Nomada, particularly during the holiday season. During the holidays, nearly every one of Skopos' restaurants gets decked out in holiday decorations and offers a festive menu. Nomada had really nice decor, and their menu had a festive flair to the Mexican offerings. For my drink, I had the Ponche Navideno. I'm not a tequila lover by any means, but I became a fan after having this drink! The tropical ingredients like hibiscus and soursop blended perfectly with the El Jimador and made me forget that it was a tequila drink. As a starter, I had chips and ancho salsa, which was very flavorful and not too spicy. I had the birria tacos for my entree. They were a favorable portion and tasted excellent. The short rib was tender, and the consommé wasn't greasy at all. My mate really enjoyed the chicken quesadilla, which had a very addictive chipotle mayo. Although I was full, I still managed to save room for dessert. Since I saw so many churros being ordered around me, I ordered some too. They were delectable and the chocolate and dulce de leche sauces that they were served with were the perfect complement. Our server, Jess, was attentive and provided great suggestions throughout the meal. All in all, I had a fantastic meal and it was great to have another excellent experience at a Skopos restaurant.

    Nice little spot with modern decor. Very new and clean. No televisions, I get it and it works here. Went for happy hour with my daughter & boyfriend and drinks were flowing. Happy hour menu has choices. I'd recommend tacos of any variety and get the chicharrones, best I've had. Will have to go back for dinner with the wife one day. Food quality was solid and drinks were on point. Field goal is good!

    Street corn appetizer-SO good!!

    Stopped in on a whim with my husband. Drinks and food were both amazing! Bartender and staff, super helpful, friendly, on point!! Margaritas were so refreshing, really good and they have many tequilas to choose from. Food was delicious, so good! Will definitely be back.

    Pleasantly surprised! We stopped by for brunch on a Saturday with our kids and stepped into a cute little tropical Christmas vibe. Menu is great, prices are average and food is yum. They also offer some great cocktails and non alcoholic drinks. Ceviche (3/5) for me it was a bit too much lime but everything in it was great just too much for me personally Chicarron (5/5) great flavor cut up in small pieces which made sharing much easier and not greasy at all Huevos rancheros (5/5) solid flavor texture variety and all the ingredients played well together Dish tacos (5/5) also great execution, I'm often left with a bit overcooked fish especially if it's not fried but this was flavorful and delicate cooked perfectly! Horchata (5/5) bonus for using oat milk for my dairy allergic daughter! Kids had chicken quesadilla and the chicken tacos both were great Good value, ample portions and would totally go back for drinks and apps. Parking is street and meter, and staff was super friendly and hospitable.

    Came for their Christmas Pop Up and it was NOICE! The Abuelitas Champurrado has ya boy feeling a little naughty if ya feel me. Fundido helped absorb some of the tequila. Some. The vibe was immaculate, and it was just cool to go somewhere that wasn't a Miracle or Sippin' Santa during the Christmas holidays. Happy hour is always nice too.

    Operated by Skopos Hospitality, Nomada is a modern take on Mexican cuisine and the first of its kind in the Skopos group. They also operate the very popular Cowan's and Barrow House so I was excited to try out Nomada! We started with the May drink specials along with the Esquites app which is basically a Mexican street corn. It was very flavorful and had hints of chicharron in it. We also ordered the shrimp @ Al pastor tacos. The tacos were two for $12 which seemed to be well-priced to me. Tres Leches cake for dessert was a must! I can't tell you how good it was. I'll definitely be back! Nomada is located in a small space off Bloomfield Ave in Verona. They offer a small parking lot in the back.

    Carnitas fajitas

    Impeccable service. Attention to detail from the whole staff was very noticeable... drinks were very good and the food was very great.. guac and chips were very good as well

    4 stars for opening night kinks but 5 stars for food! Came on opening night with my husband. I made reservations ahead of time and we were seated on time. The staff was very kind and welcoming. We really enjoyed the colorful vibe and decor. The restaurant was clean and trendy. The seating was nice and spacious. We ordered chips and salsa, steak burrito, carnitas tacos, tostones, and tres leches. The food was delicious and definitely 5 stars. Everything was served warm and super flavorful. Probably the best salsa we've had in a while. My husband loved the burrito and the carnitas were super juicy. The one issue was that we were brought the trio instead of just the chips and salsa and it was a pretty big price difference. It still tasted great but it seemed that all the tables around us were receiving the wrong items. One table was seated right after us and still had not received their entrees by the time we finished dessert and left. Overall the food was worth it and I'd come back to try more!

    Nomada has such a warm vibe, came here recently for the friends and family soft opening and it was such a fantastic evening. When you enter the cocktail bar greats you, with its hypnotic neon lights and soft glow; only to be enhanced by the top shelf liquor selection. Cocktails were fantastic, Sonrisa was hands down my favorite; if spirits aren't your jam they do serve beer too! Our server Jeff was a gem, funny, swift and perfect timing with his check-ins. Very hard to pick a favorite for appetizers and dinner, we had ceviche which was topped off with takkis, fried pork belly and esquites; all of it was solid, ceviche may be to just because of the takkis! Birria tacos were brilliant, I had a bite of my wife's shrimp, so much flavor with the smoke and lime, really delicious bite. Churro bites and caramel sauce was the better dessert in my opinion. Rice pudding was great in flavors but the rice itself was a wee bit undercooked. Overall great experience and look forward to visiting again!

With that being said the service we received here yesterday was outstanding and better than any five star restaurant. I cannot say how wonderful our waiter was.. I can't remember his name because let's face it. I had a few drinks because that's what it's about there. I believe it was. Giancarlo? So the manager if you see this, please let me know if that's correct or not. This kid was incredible. He was helpful without being overbearing. He was great with his beer knowledge, but we really sold me was when there was a table behind us that had a son with special needs at this young man treated that table with kindness and compassion and really we need more of that. To the owner of this business, I know that the wait staff gets a very minimal amount per hour because they depend on tips, but if there's anyway you can raise his base pay, I would love to see that we were only gonna have one drink each, but because of how he treated us we ended up having two for me and three for my husband, that young man is an investment

Not sure why the restaurant isn't busier because the good was very good. We split a cauliflower fritters appetizer, which was tasty and hot. It was a cross between breaded fried cauliflower and the Indian Gobi style. I had the mushroom burger, an 8 oz hamburger with mushrooms and sauteed spinach along with melted cheese. The meat was fresh and good. A big step above most burgers plus generous portions of sauteed onions and mushrooms along with melted cheeses. When I get my hamburger craving, I know where I'm going. The Butter Chicken Tacos were an unusual option. Based on Indian Butter Chicken, the national dish of UK along with Chicken Marsala, it was served in a naan with a side of rice. Really very flavorful and creative. The chopped salmon burger with mayo also comes with cheese, which was unexpected, but worked well. Service was prompt and friendly. The waitress and another wait staff person even moved furniture around looking for my grandson's red crayon. (He was sitting on it). Worth a visit even if you don't go have a craft bar or cocktail.

We ate here around 1:30PM on a Saturday and found the restaurant moderately busy which we figured was a good sign. Note that there are multiple entrances into the restaurant so you'll want to make sure you actually find the hostess desk so you can make sure you get seated properly. The venue itself is pretty expansive, featuring a dining foyer, then bar area with high tops and then another larger dining area towards the back. Our waiter was friendly and attentive though we found most of the food to be quite salty. We started off with their daily soup (a chicken tortilla-type one) as it was cold outside and found it extremely over-salted. For our mains we ordered a double-cheeseburger and the fish and chips which both came highly recommended on the menu. The burger was pretty solid and a hearty portion of food, though I was disappointed it didn't come with fries which have to be ordered separately (~$7-$9 upcharge depending on whether you get Parmesan or not). I think the meat is Pat La Frieda which is high quality and was pretty stuffed after eating it. The onion rings were also tasty (though again, quite salty) and were a generous portion which I was pleased considering they're $12. Finally, the fish & chips my partner ordered were solid though again, really salty. Overall, I'd recommend coming here if you're looking for a nice, simple place to get a burger and the basics. Their menu is pretty extensive featuring everything from chicken pot pies, quesadillas and fish but I'd recommend sticking to the classics. 2/5 for the food, 4/5 for the ambiance/service.
