My husband and I had dinner at JPAN on a beautiful Saturday evening at the end of May, and…read moreeverything was fantastic. Parking was easy and we sat outside. Our waitress, Bam, was wonderful. She was friendly, upbeat, and genuinely excited about the menu. My favorite little touch was that every time she brought out a dish, she'd set it down and say, "Ta-da!" It was adorable and made me smile every time. We started with the Spicy Tuna Bomb, which was easily one of the highlights of the meal. The crispy rice, spicy tuna, avocado, jalapeños, and sauces created the perfect combination of flavors and textures. We also ordered the Sushi and Sashimi Combo, a Salmon Lover Roll, a Godzilla Roll, and the chicken fried rice. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The fish practically melted in your mouth, and the panko-crusted salmon on the Salmon Lover Roll was something I'd never had before and absolutely loved. The portions were generous, the food was delicious, and the service was outstanding. We left full, happy, and already talking about what we'll order next time. Thanks, Bam, for making a great meal even better!

They truly stepped up the quality of their food. We have…read morebeen coming here regularly for three years, took a small break and now it's probably the best sushi and definitely the best mango sticky rice we've had around here. Service is good and the presentation of the food is exceptional. Ambiance is as good as it's gonna get in the Sarasota Commons.

As someone who has owned a restaurant in the St Regis Hotel, I understand how difficult it is to…read moreconsistently deliver great food and service. That's why I don't give praise lightly -- but Namo Izakaya Ramen & Yakitori in Sarasota absolutely deserves it. My wife, son, and daughter and I dine here twice a week, and we have never had a bad dish. The yakitori is outstanding -- perfectly cooked, flavorful, and consistently executed. The sushi is always incredibly fresh, beautifully presented, and clearly prepared with care and precision. The ramen is the best we've ever had What truly sets this place apart, though, is the personal touch. The owner and chef treat us like family every time we walk through the door. That level of hospitality, combined with the quality coming out of the kitchen, is rare. In this business, consistency is everything -- and Namo delivers it every single time. We feel fortunate to have this gem in Sarasota and recommend it without hesitation.

It's just never been something I crave yanno? Until now. Let me tell you if I had the chance to fly back tomorrow and order the Double J I would. The sushi is phenomenal, very fresh and presented beautifully. My roll had imitation crab, cream cheese, avocado, masago, scallions, eel & yum yum sauce all done panko style. YUM. I am also a big sucker for kani salad and theirs was delightful. I was in a large group and we loved the lychee martinis so much they sold out. The atmosphere was lively and our server Kody was AMAZING. So much so that we went back in after we walked out the door to reinforce how great of a job he did! Highly recommend if you're looking for quality, flavorful sushi!

I got their traditional pho, and chicken katsu w/ veggies curry for a delivery. I had low…read moreexpectations on noodles but more high hopes for katsu and curry; well, I was wrong. Obviously, pho came beautifully. And noodles were not over done or sticking to each other- none of that! Broth didn't have much depth it wasn't bad for the price with all the meat. I had enough meat for two days. Chicken katsu W/ veggies curry was let down. Katsu meat was so thin I thought I was seeing thin layer Japanese version egg parm w/ chicken. Curry's consistency was thin and flavor lacking so I ended up putting my own curry items I had to just thicken them. Maybe I chose the bad day to try.
