Amazing little hole in the wall. It's been over 3 years since my last time here and this time my experience was much more pleasant. Last time I remembered we waited so long for our food it felt like we were fine dining a 3 hour degustation. I also remembered the interior being quite dark, however, now it's brightly lit, almost too bright to feel intimate. We came here on a Wednesday evening for a 6.30pm booking which was perfect as the crowd hadn't build up yet. By 7pm, the place was almost full. Our food was served relatively fast with the exeception of the tamagoyaki, which was on the sweet side so kinda made sense to be served last. Grilled half fried squid was amazing. Custard pudding lo...
Always a very special experience with incredible home style Japanese food cooked and served with care. Nice and intimate with few tables and pleasant jazz playing. Some of the warmest service I’ve experienced. Have brought guests visiting from Japan who have loved the food and experience. <br/ <br/ Everything on the menu is great but the vinegared mackerel, minced tuna sashimi (actually ALL the sashimi), tempura okura, grilled mackerel and tarako are always on my order. The conger eel is exceptional but currently missing from the menu. You can’t go wrong with anything on offer at Nom especially if you’ve got time to enjoy a slow relaxed meal with an incredible selection of sake.
Absolutely loved the authenticity and the staff at this little hidden izakaya!! This is probably the most authentic izakaya I’ve been to in Sydney. The staff are very friendly and very welcoming. The food are quite pricey for the portions, but it’s the experience and vibes you’re here for mainly not the food. I recommend the tempura okra, tempura eel and the tamagoyaki. The tamagoyaki was so fluffy with the right amount of sweetness would’ve definitely ordered seconds if my stomach able to fit it!
Given this price range, this Japanese restaurant was absolutely worth trying! My favorite dish was grilled octopus. It’s so fresh and juicy. With very little soy and wasabi. It was delicious enough already. Sashimi was totally worth the price. Cos it’s relatively cheap. Gyoza was absolute homemade taste, thin wrap with juicy fillings. Very recommended. Waugh beef was a bit average tbh, you might not like the raw egg sauce. Book a table now
Tucked away in a small corner in Darlinghurst, Nom is a small bar/restaurant offering an assortment of small bites and sakes. We ordered the wagyu asparagus, dried squid, gyoza, agedashi tofu and chicken soft bone. Each dish lovingly made but more izakaya style portions so you’ll need to order more if you’d like to get full. We didn’t order the sake this time but the selection on offer seemed very impressive!
Very satisfied and comfort dinner. It’s like a Japanese homemade bistro, but full of surprise. You could have the tasty and juicy deep fried entries such as soft bones and karaage chicken. Ox tongue is full of flavour, although there was only a pinch of salt and pepper on top. It reminds me of The Solitary Gourmet and I could feel how happy he was when he had nice food :
All I've order did not disappoint me!! • Deep fried oyster • Grilled Fish • Japanese omelet • OX tongue • NOM salad • Yakisoba • Everything is nice!<br/ <br/ Though we didn't order Sake, the atmosphere in the store and the friendly mama make us relax and joyful.
Really love the atmosphere there.Vinegard mackerel is what i have been finding for years and finally I get to eat it in Syd!I would strongly recommend karage,omelet, crab miso paste and vinegard mackerel. Book a table now
Lovely staff member. Awesome food. We tried pretty much everything due to a big group. Mackerel sashimi is one of the wows to our group as it's pretty rare to find. Love the eel tempura too!
