I strongly believe this is one of the best places to get sushi in west Texas! I come here at least once a week. For this small little town it is a hidden gem. Also, their Korean food is on point. I have missed Korean food ever since I moved back from Korea, and this place hits the spot every time. Mr. Kim( the owner ) is super charismatic and always makes me feel welcomed when I come in. The experience from the moment you walk through the door is amazing with their decorations and kpop playing. It is really one of a kind in this town. The staff is also very friendly ( Especially the waitress Genie!) and professional, they never fail to provide prompt and good service. If you have any questions about the food and sushi they are experts at it. I recommend any of the Bulgolgi bowls and if you like extra spicy just ask them to add chili peppers! As for the sushi there so many too choose from, and there all delicious just take your pick! The food always comes out promptly, and I have never had a problem with the food except for one mistake on my order, which they fixed very quickly and were very professional about it. Which is understandable, they are small restaurant with a high volume of people coming in everyday! The price for the food is very reasonable and the quality of the food is top notch. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone. Absolutely one of my top 3 favorite restaurants in San Angelo!

I keep coming back, today they went all and beyond to offer me an option due to a food allergy risk, they were so diligent and considerate about it. Kudos to them. As a Chef I know how important this subject is. I will be back! ☆☆☆☆☆

Diamond in the rough. This place has great sushi. Not much from the outside and not much as far as decor on the inside but I can over look that for the sushi. Definitely try the hungry man roll!

Korean Food. I like Sushi but I have to order Korean food every time I go. If I were to compare it to other Korean restaurants in other towns, it falls short. Since this is the only place to get Korean food in San Angelo I think it's great. I feel fortunate to be able to get it here. The KimChi is hit or miss. I have yet to take my husband there because I know that he will not get enough to eat. I love eating it for lunch because I can get my Korean fix. The pork bulgogi is really good. The bibimbop is also very good. It's a quaint and small place that is a great ethnic option in a town full of Mexican restaurants.

Best Sushi in Town. I can't help but love this place. The atmosphere is small and cozy. I love this, especially to be located in a place like San Angelo. I also love the selection of rolls and cuisine. I have yet to order something I didn't like. There is sometimes a wait for a table, but I recommend sticking around. Wonderfully seasoned, wonderfully priced!

San Angelo Sushi?!?. Yes, Nakamura has the best sushi in San Angelo. It's actually really good. Surprisingly fresh and well put together even though this is West Texas. The Korean food is way above average. I feel this is due to the fresh ingredients. I lived in Korea for 3 years, and the Dol Sot Bibimbap here rivaled the best I had in Korea. MIND BLOWING. Also, the Man doo kuk is amazing. If you like or even have a rogue interest in sushi or Korean food, you can't go wrong with Nakamura!

Addicted. I've eaten at Nakamura's three times, and I can't wait for #4. The beef bolgogi and chicken teriyaki are phenomenal. I didn't think I liked sushi, but whatever comes with a box meal (California roll?) is great. I'd recommend this to anyone that has a hankering for Asian food. I'll be eating the chicken teriyaki box for my birthday this year.

Best in town!. When this place first opened, I stopped going to my regular sushi spot of China Garden, they deliver such a fantastic product, sooooo many options of sushi rolls, friendly staff, and their addition of Korean bbq is amazing!!! A must go for all sushi lovers and place to take your out of town guests for an authentic experience. and you must include a side salad, that dressing...mmm!

Amazing People with Amazing Food to match. The Korean food here is amazing and is of course the best in San Angelo, TX by far. The sushi is amazing as well, you pretty much can get whatever you want the way you want it as well. I recommend the Pork Bulgogi and Kiss of Fire Roll if you like spicy eats. The owner Mr. Kim is great, he will always greet you with a smile and make sure everything is to your satisfaction. And the other Sushi Chef Russel is amazing at making sushi into Art Pieces. My advice- GO TRY THIS RESTAURANT IF YOU LOVE FOOD.**

Great Bulgogi. Recently went there while visiting San Angelo, wish I had found it earlier in the trip. I can only speak for the Korean food, bulgogi in particular and the service. I had the chicken bulgogi box and my co-worker had the beef. We both liked it a lot. The tempura veggies, spring rolls and salad we also very good. The service was quick and friendly, Mr. Kim was nice and thanked everyone personally as they left. Very reasonable prices and enough to satisfy a good appetite.

Loved Korean food!. I tried the Bullgobi made with chicken. I got the "box" with rice, tempura veggies and a salad. It was spicy and good. I had to try the kimchi. It satisfied my adventurous palate!

Korean Cuisine. Went here tonight after I had a hankering for some Korean food.

The restaurant is the size of your typical sushi-bar that one would find in a strip-mall, complete with a small bar (8 seats or so) as well as a few tables for small groups.

The menu contains a good number of varying sushi rolls, to include items that are veggie-friendly. Sorry, I went straight to the Korean!

The Korean menu was limited, but included some of the staples that one could expect after having been in Korea. Bulgogi, Bi Bim Bap, Jap Jae, Kal-bi, and a Mandoo dish caught my eye. I was a little distraught not to see any Cha-Jang Myun but to be honest, I have yet to see that on any menu in the states.

Anyway, I ordered the DolSot BiBimBap (sorry if I butchered the name), which is Bi Bim Bap in the stone bowl (so it continuously cooks while you eat it). It was delicious, and the price I paid ($9) was just right with the portion. I did not leave hungry; in fact I felt guilty eating the entire thing because I was stuffed - I think I left two bites until the waitress playfully scolded me for not finishing :)

The staff was friendly (obviously), the prices were very reasonable, and the food was delicious.

Complimentary kim-chi would be nice, and it's something that I miss from a typical Korean restaurant, but I also realize that Nakamura's is more of a sushi place. I forgive them :)

If you are in San Angelo and want some Korean food, I would definitely recommend this place.

Best Sushi in Town!. Great food, especially the Korean menu. Sushi is some of the best I've had (and I've lived in both Japan and Korea). Wait staff and service are great. Try the nigiri sushi and the bibimpap. I'm getting hungry writing this.

Hands down, the best sushi spot in San Angelo. The outward appearance of the restaurant doesn't make you thing think "excellent sushi" but don't let that throw you. The miso soup is my favorite starter and I cannot say enough good things about the staff. I ordered a plate so I could try a few different rolls this time. At first, I was disappointed to see the Veggie roll but THAT was amazing too! Anytime friends and family come to town, I bring them here. It's a great place to have a conversation and make good memories.

*Update: new menu, the price is a lot higher than before. I'm saddd. We have Japchae box, Bulgogi box this time and Sunset roll this time. Actually my bulgogi is not good like usually, but i still like it. I do appreciate more if the waiters and waitresses would remember what we order. This is the third time they miss my order. Anyway, this is still my favorite restaurant 💓

I just moved here and am a sushi fanatic and this place didn’t disappoint. Don’t let the old “sushi” sign stop you from coming in! The staff was phenomenal, the sushi was fresh and delicious, and their Korean food is to DIE FOR! Run, don’t walk. I’m serious.

The food was the best. Friendly waitress. Have eaten at several Korean restaurants with in 150 miles from our home, by far the best. Even when paying out the waitress noticed my US ARMY wallet and asked me if I was a veteran. She didn't have to ask but she did. 10% off. Once again great place great food. YOU HAVE TO TRY IT.....

Don’t miss this little place! Ate here for supper 10/16/20. It was busy. Lots of take out orders being picked up by eager diners. Small dining room. Friendly staff and quick service. Everything was delicious. Conveniently located at the end of a busy strip mall. Close to shopping and hotels. Highly recommend.

Nice place. Good prices on everything. Dinner “box” is a real value. Lots of choices in both Japanese and Korean cuisine. See pic for beef bulgogi box. Friendly staff as well.
