Every dish was fantastic. Amount of food is great for an Omakase, they also give you an option of a hand roll (not pictured) if you are still hungry. Pictures are in order of the course from start the finish

Had an extraordinary culinary experience at n/naka last night. I understand why it's so hard to get a reservation... It was without equal. The best meal I have ever enjoyed. We got the optional wine and sake pairing to match the 13 course kaiseki and it was perfection. Each course was beautiful, surprising, nuanced, and holy f*ck delicious. I'm in awe of the mastery of technique and respect for ingredients displayed by the chefs. Some of the best service I've experienced at a Michelin star establishment as well. Attention to detail is what sets n/naka apart. The meal ends with a personal thank you from the chef. Filled with gratitude ❤️

N/Naka is an atmosphere that truly envelopes one and nourishes the body as well as the soul. The service, attention to detail, and warmth of the team are truly world class. The refinement of flavours as well as the complexity of the dishes visually and from a gustatory perspective are refined in a way that gently invites one into the beauty and sheer deliciousness of each ingredient and dish. The entire team is truly spectacular, and we were very fortunate to have Emily as our presenter and host. Her encyclopedic knowledge and kindness in maximizing every bite was truly a game changer. The seasonal dish highlighting various elements indicative of the summer season was one of the most sensory rich experiences I’ve ever had at a restaurant. The wine and sake pairing is a perfect complement to each dish and there is a really nice balance of different kinds of sake and wine. The piedrasassi Syrah with Wagyu as the lone red wine in the pairing was a perfect selection opting for flavor and elevating each piece of the dish with a tangible connection to the wine maker rather than a brand name. Herein lies the beauty of the experience, world class Kaiseki and service, but with the warmth of going to a family member’s house. N/Naka is emblematic of its Chef: simultaneously unassuming in being so inviting and kind, yet utterly transportive beyond the medium of taste. Chef Naka is an incredible chef, and an amazing person. Her talent and humility are ubiquitous in the food, the ethos of the restaurant, and the genuine care of the entire team. All of these elements create what is perhaps the finest restaurant in Los Angeles and southern California.

It was an amazing experience to dine at n/naka. Chef Nakayama is superb with her selection and execution of all dishes and everyone in the service staff was very knowledgeable and polite. I got the Vegetarian tasting Menu and being a fussy eater, wasn't disappointed at all. Every dish hits the mark with it's own unique cooking technique and flavor. We got the late slot for dinner which began at 9pm and lasted around 3.5 hours. Good luck getting that highly elusive reservation which sells out in a matter of seconds - literally. It took us about 7 weeks of regular sitting on Tock to get a reservation for 4 people but the wait was totally worth it.

Loved dinner here. Their sushi was on point. Their A5 Wagyu lived up to all the hype around A5 and then some. Great sake/wine pairing.

the meal started slow, wasn’t impressed by the initial dishes. only started getting into the meat of things (hah) with the A5 wagyu course. everything after that was deliciousness. perfect amount of sake/wine in the pairing. overall, n/naka was nice to try but lacking the creativity/inventiveness that I prefer in my meals. especially at that price point.

Ask for the extra pasta serving. It’s worth it!
