    Spicy tuna, unagi and house rolls.
    Tim B.

    No.1 son and I had an afternoon run ashore in Halifax mid-August and decided to do some carbo-lading before getting stuck into the beer. I've been to the Bedford Highway outlet several times, and thought it time to give the city centre one a try. It's frequently rated as among the top sushi joints in town and having visited, I can see why. Built below pavement level on Queen Street, just off Spring Garden, it's a high, bright, airy place. Open and booth seating, a few spots by the window and a row of chairs at the sushi bar itself. We went maki, with spicy tuna, unagi and the house butterfish rolls. They are generously sized, well built and with palpable freshness. Quite delicious and fully deserving of its high reputation. Topped off with a pint of Sapporo each, the bill was not at all bad, especially given the central location. Highly recommended and worthy of a revisit sooner rather than later.

    We went here on Valentine's day and it wasn't anything spectacular. The drinks took a very long time to arrive but we didn't mind as it was busy. The fish is very fresh, but their rolls are just strange. A lot of them have cheese on them which we did not like at all. Their specials just had way too much sauce and were a mess.

    Having sushi at a restaurant for the first time in 7 or 8 months was pretty sublime! We were happily greeted with a hand washing area, and directed by masked staff to a booth with dividers. We had a great evening chowing down on fresh appetizers, miso soup & mixed sushi (not pictured), as well as black sesame ice cream. The tuna was so fresh!! We loved the red dragon roll and sushi mix. Hot sake was the perfect way to warm up on a chilly fall night.

    Had a lovely and of delicious lunch here today with my friend today. It's one of the best in Halifax the quality and professional service. I would highly recommend this sushi restaurant if you are reading this I promise they won't disappoint you.

    This was my first sushi experience in Halifax. Through mega reservation (as I'm not a huge fishy person) we wandered up to the Dresdon Row location and got our chopstick on. I'm not even remotely educated on sushi, even a year later. I'm not even going to pretend I know what I'm talking about. Maki? No clue. Unagi? Tobbiko? Double no clue. But I can say that I thoroughly enjoy eating it. I haven't progressed into the super fishy stage yet. I have nibbled on a few of my boyfriend's rolls and found them quite tasty. It really isn't an authentic sushi experience such as Hamachi, Dharma, or Fujiyama but it is a delish one. It's perfect for someone like me who doesn't want to dive in head first. It is a pretty large spot with seating by the chefs as well as more seating up top. It's nice and bright and always busy. We always start with the edamame. Of which I've been hooked on ever since. Cool thing about it is that it's super high in protein and low in fat. My classic go-to selections are always the firecracker and vegetable dragon. The firecracker is as the name implies, the bomb. Avocado and spicy mayo rock this roll. My boyfriend always gets what he calls the "Big Mac" of sushi: The Kamikaze. Salmon, tuna, snapper, avocado, cream cheese, and jalapeno make for a fabulous combo of flavors. I find it a wee bit cheaper than Hamachi and somehow seem to deem this our regular sushi place. I just love the firecracker to the moon and back. If you're looking to go on an evening close to the weekend, make sure you allow plenty of time. We often find ourselves sitting around waiting for a table. Never a bad thing!

    I think this will be one of my new fav. places for sushi. If you go between 3-5 or 9:30-close they have a 'Tsu-Nami' special where the prices are cheaper. It actually makes a lot of the food cheaper than most other sushi places! Not to mention, the rolls are a bit larger than most places so you definitely get your money worth! Usually I can eat 3 (sometimes 4) rolls before I'm full but at this place I only need 2. It's worth mentioning that YOU should be aware of the time for Tsu-Nami hour because sometimes the waitresses forget. Also, if you arrive even 5 mins early you're not likely to get the Tsu-Nami menu. After I was seated, a couple came in (it was about 3:02 or something. I remember checking my phone.) and they had to ask for the Tsu-Nami menu. Service is pretty good. Although last time I went the waitress took forever to come check on us. This normally isn't a bad thing but I was waiting to ask about a part of my order she forgot. She eventually got around to it and apologized saying they were busy...but there was only about 2-3 other tables at the time. Maybe it's just because I'm a waitress too, but I found this odd since I wouldn't consider that busy. Anyway, she was really nice about it and even apologized again when we left. The workers at the sushi bar often say hello when you arrive as well which I found was a nice touch. The place is very spacious and clean. Food is presented nicely. Service is good. Prices are great. What more can you ask for? I'll definitely be coming back here often. I'll even be bringing my friends!

    veggie bento box!
    Lacey H.

    Friday afternoon on a blissful early spring day took me and a couple of friends into Sushi Nami for lunch. I was coveting a bento box, a mixture of tasty things at a price that doesn't break the bank. We waited at the door for about 10 minutes; I'm assuming because the lunch rush had just cleared out and things very still pretty hectic. When we were seated it took another 10 minutes to get water dropped off and a total of 15-20 minutes before we placed our orders. Their bento box selection is not vegetarian friendly, but the server was able to get the kitchen to do some simple substitutions for us, so it all worked out. The food came in pretty good time and looked marvelous. It was colorful and fresh, and paired with warm Sake made for a truly lovely lunch. Our server didn't really come back until the end of the meal, but she was kind enough and we were immersed in conversation so it wasn't a huge deal. The bills were taking quite awhile to arrive so we decided to suit up for the outdoors, and head to the counter. We paid up and hit the streets, back into the brisk sunny day that has been par for the course this week. The long waiting times and inattentive service took away from what was an otherwise great experience. I'm not griping because I had a lovely lunch, but if Sushi Nami can jazz this end of their business up, they'll be doing better in my books.

    Satisfied my sashimi craving. I got the assorted sashimi plate - my favourites were salmon and white tuna. The pieces were nice large chunks hehe :). Good value for your money.

    Sushi Nami can be found inside Pete's Frootique. Great to go Sushi! I love the couple who works here! If you ask them nicely, they will make you a combo plate of your choosing. Spicy Salmon is by far the best choice! Sushi Nami gets extra points for being to go, speedy and extremely consistent when it comes to quality!

    Insert Cheesy Line Here: Sushi Nami? More like Sushi Yummy! I suppose you can tell I love the Sushi here. But if you are from outside of Halifax or even Nova Scotia, it is important for you to know a few things about my experience with Sushi and the general quality of Sushi in Halifax as well. First off, I adore Sushi! And I am a picky Sushi customer. I have eaten at plenty of great Sushi restaurants in Vancouver, California and a few other spots as well. So that's my experience with Sushi. Here's my challenging dilemma with Sushi in Halifax. In general it is not that good. The portion sizes are small, the prices are high and the service is fair. Can I expect anything less from a food that is not native to Canadian cuisine? Well the short answer is yes. If Vancouver can make it cheaper with a higher quality then so can Halifax. Sushi Nami would rank as a three star in any major city that has a normal amount of competition. However there are only a handful of Sushi restaurants in Halifax and it almost feels like a conspiracy that they all have high prices for small portions. Sushi Nami, however, is fair with their prices and have a wide selection of Sushi as well as other dishes for people to enjoy. Their location is quite central in downtown Halifax. Just off of Spring Garden Road, on Dresden Row, they are very easy to get to and seating wait time is normally only a minute or two. I always have a great time when I go there. The Waitress's are very nice, however, tend to be on the "rookie" side of things experience wise. So from time-to-time you will definitely hear a plate break into a million peaces. My advice; just yell Opa! I know that's Greek but why not? So the food is great when compared to the other Sushi restaurants in Halifax. However do not expect the Sushi to blow your mind if you are used to Vancouver, California or any other state's or provinces wide variety of Sushi restaurant's. But if you do need a Sushi fix, like I do from time-to-time, I highly recommend Sushi Nami.

    A quick dip into sushi realms without spending a fortune. Sushi Nami offers an array all fans of the cuisine would expect, but somehow this little resto experience borders mediocre. Not a huge sushi goer myself, I do tag along with a few addicts with opinions to enjoy spaced out sessions. And while the setting and service was more than apt, my recent selection at Sushi Nami warranted measly portions and less than admirable craftsmanship. The quaint interiors made for a lovely sit down evening, and an equally lovely server furthered the fact that we were well looked after. The place seemed fairly busy, and to have attentive, friendly service is always something I take into consideration. Food-wise, the appetizers were a delight. I ordered the Yaki-Nasu (Eggplant topped with miso sauce), and friends reported solidity of the shrimp + lobster dishes and spring rolls. It was the main dishes that were less than exquisite--- my vegetarian dragon roll appeared a bit make-shift in construction. Still tasty and worthy of the $8.95 price tag, the presentation and craftsmanship here wasn't the best. Although I'm going to be optimistic and say I hit an off day at Sushi-Nami. Great prices, superior service and atmospheric affect, next time could take this spot from good to great.

    Sashimi mixed sampler was excellent.  Quality and size of sashimi was superb.  Nice new location.

    Excellent quality and size of sashimi slices. This is the go-to sushi place in Halifax. Nice new location

The sushi is always amazing, I recommend the salmon maki and the tuna, so fresh and tasty. Our server was very friendly and we had a nice conversation!

However; my last three orders from them have been terrible and costly. The first time, I ordered the king crab, which was markedly more expensive and received imitation. I ordered tuna belly and they asked to replace it with tuna with no compensation for the difference in cost after I agreed. I swept this under the rug. The next order; as an appetizer I ordered softshell crab appetizer, they sent the roll, again I swept it under the rug. This third order was the straw that broke the camels back: I'm done. My order compared to what I got, is in in the pictures. Ordered spicy salmon roll - got Tuna Maki. Ordered Negi-Hamachi (suppose to be yellow tail and green onion), got a salmon roll. Not maki with avocado or even tempura bits; just rice and salmon. Vast cost difference. I got the Alaskan roll I ordered, but that is mine and the other two are my kids rolls, so I clearly won't eat in front of them. I'm done. Something is seriously wrong there and at this point it's a waste of money.
