I used to love this spot. Whenever I had a craving for drunken noodles, this place would be my go to. Unfortunately, the quality of the food has drastically decreased over the past four years. I loved to order both an entree and sushi. The quantity is great and will leave you full. read more

3.5 stars Valentine's Day Dinner. We sat in the back of the dining room - shoes off. I had the Spicy Fish Salad which was better than average but a little on the small side for $11. Chicken Lettuce Wraps were good and a decent sized portion for $10. The Shrimp Tempura roll was $8 and was very good as well. The Volcano Chicken $13 was a Kung Pao wanna-be that actually turned out to be quite good. The service was okay and the atmosphere about average as well. I would come back and give it another try. read more

Although I have been to Nano plenty of times, this was my first time ordering sushi. My boyfriend and I ordered the crunchy shrimp tempura roll (made with tempura flakes on top and fried shrimp inside) and the tiger roll (made with shrimp on top and crab stick inside). The tempura flakes on top of my sushi were a bit soggy, a little too much eel sauce I top for me to experience the crunch. The tiger roll is pretty bland in taste on its own, but adding a dab of wasabi on top to spice it up is always a great idea. I would recommend this as a roll for someone who has never tried sushi because it is fairly basic. Overall, our service was great and I would encourage anyone to go there to try it at least once. read more

Probably the worst sushi I've ever eaten. Is it because it's Xmas? Who knows, but the Tuna and Salmon wasn't anywhere near quality fish. Ordered 4 pieces of maguro, 2 pieces of salmon, and the salmon avocado roll. Couldn't finish half of it, it was that bad. Only positive thing out of this transaction was the delivery driver getting a fat Xmas tip. At least someone is happy tonight. read more

Rude lady staff at the restaurant. Food is average but the service is the worst. Customer satisfaction is not given any importance nor is the attitude in check. Very rude lady at the counter who does not want to serve customer but just make extra money. Avoid at all costs if you can. There are bunch of other places nearby which definitely will have better staff and service. read more

Not bad, good taste overall. The sushi was good, I loved the eel roll, the teriyaki chicken was grilled, slightly meager.

We had delivery. Great sushi. We both got Singapore street noodles. My hubs got spicy. His is waaaay better. It had color and interest and flavor. Mine.. not so much. Don't recommend. read more

I have eaten there before, never had a problem. Until we went there Sunday April 6, 2014. Sat at the bar. Ordered. Not 5 minutes in, COCKROACH comes crawling RIGHT ON THE BAR BY MY UTENSILS. I thought maybe "nah, stink bug." Nope. Roach, at least 1 1/2 inches long. My wife got up. The server says "we'll move you to a different table." Ummm, no thanks, we don't like eating roachy food. After looking them up, saw at least 3 former reviews, all the way back to September 2011, of the same complaint! Roaches! CHECK THE "COMMENTS NOT RECOMMENDED" LINK AT THE BOTTOM OF THE MAIN PAGE-Another "ROACH REVIEW" is on there from 9/2013! Yech. Stay away if you care about your health! read more

Not very many ppl at first, but they followed us to get out of the pouring rain. Waitress was very nice and food was pretty decent. My husband is very picky with his sushi and he ended up ordering 3 spicy tuna rolls. My shrimp tempura roll was really good. General tso's wasnt spicy, so that worked well for me. Hubby also had vegetable tempura and really liked it. Recommend stopping in if you're in town. read more

Went here last month... "Meh" is exactly how I would describe it. The place was packed and people were waiting outside, so we figured it must be good. Nope. We had Nigiri, which was the only good thing. The sushi rice was wayyy overcooked, and the pad thai was dry. Our server sucked. She barely mumbled anything to us throughout the meal. Saving grace (from 1 star): The manager. She was friendly and upbeat, and talked to us on our way out. Her kindness caught me off guard, and I didn't have the heart to tell her that we didn't really enjoy it. It was almost as if it was too late. Oh well. read more

Was here on a Sunday afternoon. It was fairly crowded but we were seated right away. The service was quick and the rolls were excellent. We got your standard California, Spicy Tuna, Crunchy Spider, etc. It hit the spot and was very conveniently located on Main Street. read more

I'm usually pretty nice about reviews, but this place is garbage. I ordered a tuna and avocado roll. The roll was sloppily made and the avocado was brown. Okay, I know that avocado browns over time...but not that quickly. I arrived at noon for lunch. I sent the roll back. I was sitting at the bar with super uncomfortable, but "cute" chairs. I saw the chef sift through a bunch of brown avocado looking for fresh pieces while making my replacement roll, which was pretty awful. I was so fed up that I took a bite and asked for the check. The food is old. I don't trust this place. Joss is much better. read more

A wonderful spot for a thoroughly unplanned dinner date that turned out to be one the best sushi/asian inspired meals my fiancé and I have ever enjoyed. We stopped in after two passerby's recommended the restaurant and the online reviews backed them up. The staff was very friendly and the quiet, relaxing atmosphere was a nice change of pace from the busy weekend crowd outside. My fiancé, a sushi fiend who has known to devour more fish and rice in one sitting than is humanly possible, placed an order for a handful of rolls and sashimi, and I ordered the fried rice with chicken, shrimp, and beef. Now let me take a moment to say that I know my fried rice. As a Jew who was raised with the tradition of Chinese food on Christmas and the dangerous gift of several truly outstanding Chinese food restaurants in my home town, I've downed more than my fair share of soy-sauced, veggie sprinkled, meat filled rice dishes. And I can say that, with complete and utter certainty, this was the BEST fried rice I have had in my entire life. The shrimp was fresh and sweet, the chicken was moist and flavorful, and the steak was so buttery and tender that I was genuinely taken aback by how amazingly good it was. Overall a fantastic meal with equally lovely service at a wonderful little restaurant we cannot wait to return to. read more

I had finished my meal here and was waiting for my milkshake at Annapolis Ice Cream Shop when I saw the owner of Nano tapping on the glass and holding my car keys and water bottle in his hand. He had spotted my friend on the phone outside and ran my items down the street for me. How nice. The owner definitely gets five stars. He also greeted us entering and leaving the restaurant. The atmosphere gets 2 stars. Nice seating but didn't feel overly clean. It smelled like a bar with old beer that needed to get mopped up. Most sushi places are impeccably clean. The service gets 3 stars. On par with other sushi places. The food gets 2 stars. People should be blown away by flavor in specialty rolls, for better or worse depending on their particular taste. I thought all our rolls tasted bland. I might as well have ordered all California rolls because they tasted similar if not better than our Spider and Superman rolls. The soy sauce and wasabi provided the most complex flavors in our meal - to give you an idea. Sushi should be refreshingly fresh. This was not so here. Overall, I give it three stars. I might try it again if you twisted my arm and bought me an ice cream cone after. I'm not disposed to paying $13.00 for a Spider Roll that doesn't taste much better than the $5 California Rolls. If you come here keep it simple, get some Miso Soup and some basic rolls. read more

I wanted to try a different sushi place, especially since it was much closer to my house. I had ordered the crab cheese wontons, Gangnam Style Roll, and the Chorishi's Fire. The crab cheese wontons were terrible. There was barely any filling and the wonton skins weren't even crispy. Both rolls were flavorless. Was so disappointed in the order and the price I had to pay for it too. I recommend going to New Yama sushi instead. read more

Ok, first of all I've noticed a lot of reviews here that slam this place. Personally I don't expect authentic Japanese cuisine in the middle of DTA so i went in to Nano with out many expectations. I really liked the decor of the place (even if I recognised a painting from IKEA), kinda funky but not off-putting. My wife and I went on a Tuesday night and got a seat immediatly. A waiter came to us for drinks and let us look at the menus. I had the sashimi sampler with the chicken katsu and my wife had miso soup and the basil chicken. The sashimi was great. tuna, salmon and maybe halibut, not for sure, none of it tasted "fishy" at all. The chicken katsu was really good, first time I've found it in an Annapolis restaurant. The veggies were a bit over seasoned but cooked very well. My wife loved her meal; however she was not thrilled with the miso. The portions were a nice big size, plently left over for lunch the next day. I saw some reviews mention the wait staff and my wife and I had no problems, everyone was helpful and nice. read more

Best sushi in the Annapolis area. It's always fresh, delicious, and delivered in a timely fashion.

I ordered the spicy tuna roll...No Tuna in the roll...? Asked the staff, they said it was the mushy salmon colored stuff on top of the roll? I am still perplexed... Confused and missing my tuna in MD! Won't be back... read more

I went to Nano Asian Dining with my boyfriend while visiting the town and left a happy and satisfied customer! Many other sushi restaurants along the main street were full, so we ventured into Nano. The wait staff was immediately attentive and quick to assist us. We ordered two sushi rolls and a dinner entree for an extremely reasonable price, without sacrificing quality! The sushi tasted fresh and well prepared. We also indulged in a Steak and Black Bean Sauce Stir-fry. It was flavorful and balanced, without being too heavy on the salt, which many stir-fry can be. The food was delivered so quickly I felt like we were only waiting for 5 minutes! However, the owner/manager really made us feel welcome and appreciated. She chatted with us several times throughout our meal and was extremely accommodating. It was clear that she was very proud of her establishment and that her customers were her priority! We will be returning to Nano Asian Dining. Great work! read more

Always quality, delicious sushi, made well. They have a stop drop and roll sushi that is yummy if you're ever in the mood for something spicy and fattening. The sashimi is great, they don't over charge for it, even though sushi bars themselves tend to be pricey. They also have a diverse menu from the kitchen, but I have yet to try it. I like the ambience. You can sit at a bar, table, or traditional-feeling booth of sorts, or they even have floor seating in a back room for the real experience. Really cool art work too! Service could be a little more attentive though. read more

Recommended by USNA alumnus and it did not disappoint. The food was flavorful not overly spiced. The rolls are a takeoff from usual recipes but are packed with fresh ingredients. Price is reasonable. Cooking is Taiwanese influenced with predominant Japanese dishes. read more

Love this place for sushi! ALL of their sushi, but especially their rolls, are GREAT. And they deliver, which is hard to find in Annapolis. Of their entrees, the only one that I think is great is Volcano chicken; go with that if you want "Chinese food". But if you're ordering sushi, have no fear---it will be fresh and fantastic, and delivered promptly. Really nice people with great service. Highly recommend as the best delivery option in all of Annapolis. read more

After hearing great recommendations about Nano from friends, I decided to try it out. Now I've had fantastic sushi to sushi that gave me food poisoning and while it's not food-poisoning-bad, it is definitely at the lower spectrum. The fire cracker roll appetizer was the best part of the meal, good sauce, but the salmon was way too fishy to be fresh. Same with the tuna nigiri and salmon rolls. Tough texture, fish is not fresh. The chesapeake roll was okay, but on top was this brown chunky mass not mentioned on the description of the roll. After much deliberation I came to the conclusion that it's garlic, again, not fresh, but minced garlic from a jar that has been sitting out on a warm evening. Also noticed that a majority of the rolls on the menu had either had imitation crab or other fillers. I expect this quality at buffet-style sushi but absolutely not for the prices Nano charge. read more

I frequent sushi places, and this is one of the best I have been to ever. The atmosphere is not the greatest, but it is still a good and clean place. The staff is super friendly, as you would expect at a sushi place, and is helpful with suggestions. Spider roll is amazeballs, very good proportion of fish and rice. Spicy scallop is great, we usually do not like spicy things but this was just a touch of heat. The basic tuna + avocado, and salmon+avocado were surprisingly great as well. The house hot sake is delicious, and pairs well with the sushi. read more

the only things positive about this place is the service and space. They are very sweet and attentive and there is much more room than Joss, but the sushi is quite terrible. Not fresh and very "fishy" smelling. eek read more

I've been to literally every place in downtown Annapolis and Eastport. The staff here is without a doubt the best that I've seen. Nice, hard working folks. Give them some business business, please. read more

Nano is our number one choice for take out in Annapolis. Staff is friendly and easy to order from, food is delivered quickly and hot. The miso soup is wonderful as are their dishes such as lo mein, general taos, and drunken noodles. Sushi is delicious and they have a wide variety. Prices are reasonable. Highly recommended Nano for take out! read more

When eating at sushi establishments you get used to the seeing the same thing everywhere you go. Same miso soup, same ginger dressing on a salad, and so on. This restaurant had your standard sushi cuisine but it takes it up just a notch. What sets this place apart from others I've experienced is the noticeable freshness of the igredients. The ginger dressing is more of a vinaigrette then chunky drsssing, the miso soup tofu is chunkier and seaweed more pronounced and the Wasabi seemed spicier. I stick with classic rolls wherever I go and the tuna in my roll was soft and tender, the rolls I had didn't fall apart when I picked them and the overall attention to small details pleased me. This is a good place to go to. read more

A huge favorite of mine while I was a mid. The basil chicken, Singapore street noodles, and Valentine roll are all favorites. The owners are from Taiwan, and are very friendly and seemingly always there. Local delivery is also available. Give Nano's a try! read more

The atmosphere in this place is awesome! I love the decor and the ambiance of the restaurant. The sushi itself was OK. I ordered the Chorishi Roll which was a shrimp tempura and spicy tuna roll. It probably would have been better if it wasn't swimming in sauce. This was a large roll and I think it came with about 12 pieces, which was a lot more than I was expecting. The fried tofu was really good. The sauce was a bit salty but I am a fan of the tofu. Everything here comes in large quantities and the prices are more reasonable than Joss' (which is about 2 doors down). They didn't have many choices for dessert, only Mango with Sticky Rice and Mochi Ice Cream. read more

SPICY SCALLOPS! This sushi is heaven when done correctly, the creaminess from the mayonnaise and the scallop come together makes for a delicious dish! Not too much mayo, not much heat, just enough to warm you from this cold and snowy day. I needed some comfort food and went to Annapolis to run errands. Annapolis has three sushi places and I went for the first one, Nano because it was too cold. Nano is small and inviting, it was not busy like the others, but that did not stop me from bellying up to the sushi bar and peruse the menu. Their prices are a bit steep which took me by surprise, so I did not bother to go for the specialty rolls which weren't that exciting anyways. My friend Todd turn me on to spicy scallop sushi so that is my litmus test on a good sushi place. Their service was good and the place is clean! The quality of the sushi is really great, the fish is smooth in texture and melts lovely in your mouth. I had to be very careful of how loud I was when I said yum. I have not had dinner here, but for lunch is good. I recommend this place, try it out! read more

For Annapolis, this is an average sushi experience and really only deserves 2.5 stars. The food is prepared and presented well, and is actually on the tastier side of mediocre. However, this place *seriously* lacks atmosphere. I would say that this place is better for take-out than dining in. I was actually so uncomfortable during my first meal here that I rushed through it just to get out! I advise against accepting a seat near the window. There was also a funny odor, and the bathroom could afford some extra attention both for cleanliness and redecorating. If they can get their act together, this place could deserve the full 3 stars, instead of only the 2.5 I want to give them. read more

It was great sushi and the fact that it's located in Annapolis makes it a nice go to date option. You have a check off menu and submit it. It gets pretty busy on a nice day, but we had reservations and it was my birthday. I'd go back and recommend it to anyone. I had the hot sexy mama roll and side crunchy shrimp tempora roll. Both were amazing! Average priced sushi too. read more

A solid 3.5. Stopped in today because I'd been craving sushi and Joss closes at 2:30pm. Weird. Anyway, the spider roll is super tasty. Their pineapple fried rice is on point. The miso soup is just average, although I'm spoiled by the sushi house in town who's miso cannot be beat. Very good octopus and white fish sashimi. The service is friendly and attentive and the food comes out fast and hot. Can't complain about much aside from that the rolls are a tad sloppy, but I don't really mind that. Would give 4 stars if they had seating that was a bit more comfortable. read more
