Description

Summary: Tradition guides four omakase courses from sesame tofu to sashimi and grilled fish.

Name Nakamura carries a long shadow of family craft, and the restaurant lives up to that aura. At Nakamura, guests are greeted with a formal bow and a quiet reverence as four omakase menus unfold. The approach favors home cooking inspired flavors built from the most refined local ingredients, weaving sesame tofu, white miso zoni and tilefish baked in sake into a narrative that speaks to memory, lineage and a heartfelt respect for craft.
