Sushi Nami Royale

Been here a few times, and will likely be here more.
Atmosphere is great, and there is plenty of selection. If you come during happy hour, you’ll get a little more bang for your buck through discounts.
The sushi itself is relatively good, I say relatively because a lot of sushi restaurants in HRM are dogshit. Service was always good the couple times I’ve been there, and food gets to your table pretty quickly. It’s a bit expensive, but nothing ridiculous. And if price is an issue, you should definitely come during happy hour. Tbh, I can’t really complain about anything, so I guess they get 5 stars.
Overall, the service has been good (small sample size, will update as I eat here more), the food tastes good, the restaurant looks nice, and food is delivered pretty quickly.
no complaintz :^)

By far my favorite restaurant. It’s my go-​to place when I want to treat myself. I rarely ate sushi before I tried this place. My food is always fresh and tastes amazing, I’ve never been disappointed! The wait staff are very friendly and always attentive. I’ve only ever once left less than 20% tip and the waitress I gave that to is no longer working at that location.

I always come here with a group of friends or by myself. I love this place.
The go to is always the Miso soup and salad, with an order of spicy salmon and spicy nigiri.
Boyfriend and I went today, and I got the assorted maki dinner (Miso and salad included), and the tonkatsu appitizer. He got two orders of spicy salmon and salmon nigiri.
The price will always be expensive, but the quality of the food is will always make me come back. Sometimes the California rolls are a hit and miss, but the fish will always be on point.
Service here is quick and precise, but sometimes the waitresses are a bit slow because of other orders. Its to be expected. They are great at what they do, and they remember when my friends and I come in.
5 stars, I will always come again.

Went for dinner. Fantastic service. I was a little nervous because I usually go to unlimited sushi restaurant and this one does not offer that. Portion sizes were good and I only spent slightly more than what I would have at my regular place (wasabi house in Sackville). I would definitely go again :)

Not a bad place! The décor is great and the staff is typically friendly. At times a little slow but nothing daunting.
The food quality is usually quite good, though I’ve had a bad experience where I had ordered tobiko that came frozen solid, and the waitress suggested I wait for it to thaw and was unpleasantly surprised that I asked her to take it back. L
The prices do seem a bit high, though I won’t say that’s a strong negative.
Overall, a good place. My review is slightly skewed because of the negative experience I had and my desire for lower prices, though I would still recommend if you want to try something new at a place with a great décor.

I am from Vancouver, one of the sushi capitals of the world. On the West coast, we are SPOILED with awesome sushi.
I ate here twice during my recent trip to Halifax. I wasn’t blown away and I wasn’t terribly disappointed. This is middle of the road sushi. Service was prompt, the rice was warm and soft (a must), but the sashimi was nothing to write home about. Again, I am writing this from the perspective of a Vancouverite. This might be good sushi in HRM…

This is a fantastic spot in Clayton Park. The dining room is surprisingly nice and you completely forget that you’re in a strip mall. We often get take out, but have dined in for lunch. Food is always fresh, and service is fast and friendly. They have some good lunch deals, but generally it’s around $ 70 for 2 adults for dinner (no drinks). Our favourites are the sweet potato maki and deluxe maki dinner.

Ive been here so many times and I’ve never been disappointed. My faves are the sweet potato maki and spicy salmon/​tuna rolls.
Take out is pretty fast, usually 10 – 15 min but it’s always yummy.
Eating in is a nice experience, it’s dark inside which makes it feel fancy. The dinners are a good deal, you get soup and a salad which is good. Definitely recommend!

I go to Sushi Nami pretty often. It’s more for a comfortable «I know what I’m going to order» every time I come here. I call it more of a casual place, but this is one of my more favourite sushi places in Halifax.
I always get 3 things when I come here: spicy miso soup (the best in hfx), japanese seaweed salad, and the Tropicana roll. This is my concrete order and these are all solid items. If you go (after 9pm I believe?), they have a special menu where it’s a little bit cheaper on select items.
If you have extra room in the belly, make sure to try the black sesame ice cream. The colour can be a little off putting but it’s very taaaaasty :) The green tea ice cream is also great.
The atmosphere is clean, not too loud, and the service is good.

I’ve yet to be disappointed. The food and the service is great. Always upgrade the miso to the spicy deluxe version.

one of my favourite restaurants! my brother is addicted to their volcano rolls and i love their spicy shrimp rolls. Its always clean and classy, never had a bad experience before and i go at least once a month! totally recommend their deep fried ice cream its truly delicious.

I always get the Tempura Shrimp roll, and it’s the best (If you like sushi) spicy and crispy!

I can’t deny that I love sushi, and why should I when there are so many great spots to go in halifax? Sushi nami is where I go when I feel like going on a date or meeting some friends for a, slightly, classier meal than maybe our normal dive bar!
Regardless of when we go or how we are dressed, the sushi is always Delish! Y have some good deals on bento boxes and lunchtime specials, not as good as some other spots in town but definitely worth a visit! They also have a happy hour late night menu which is probably their best deals, so after work sushi is a big thing for me!
They have traditional selection and also some unique to them rolls! The service is also very great and they can help you make a decision, if you are like me and want it all!
So grab some friends and check out your closest sushi nami! (Plus they also have to-​go from Pete’s, which is a nice option for a quick lunch fix!)

On a Friday night it’s always packed here to get a table. So get here as soon as you can. It’s a great relaxing atmosphere and you’re able to watch the chefs prep sushi… Which is pretty cool
The service was great and very attentive water was always filled and was asked if there was anything we needed.
We ordered a nice mix of things and it all tasted fresh and I definitely wanted more. The prices are fair in my opinion for what you’re getting and always a fulfilling feeling… But not a gross one when you leave sushi nami Royal

I’ve eaten here probably a dozen times over the last year or so, and usually prefer dinner because of the low lighting, which I rather in any restaurant. About 20 tables of two and four-​seaters (a couple booths?) with sushi bar to the side. Simple décor, modern, clean style, red & black coloring, with register at the rear.
Delicious spicy edamame (seems to be sautéed in olive oil with crushed roasted red pepper and possibly garlic? I should ask. I’ve taken to ordering this at most Japanese restaurants lately due to me being on Weight Watchers, so not sure the spicy option was very healthy or not, but it WAS delicious. I crave it regularly and tried it at home, to no avail).
Very good sweet potato croquette (Deep fried sweet potato mixed with cream cheese, avocado, onions, and seaweed, although I couldn’t really detect the seaweed). I try not to order this often as it’s obviously not the healthiest thing on the menu, but if you like fried foods, you will like this).
Standard, good vegetable tempura (not too greasy and the vegetables keep their fresh, crispiness).
Very good Firecrackers Dream maki (spicy mayo, bread crumbs, tempura bits, choice of avocado or cucumber). The pieces of this were a little big, but not too big to fit into my small mouth. LOL
Vegetable dragon roll is good, but I find the pieces too large to chew properly, so you spend your whole time covering your mouth with a napkin, unable to speak, unless you opted to break up the pieces on your plate, and who wants to do that with sushi?
My partner enjoys the beef teriyaki dinner that comes on a bed of rice & veggies, with miso soup, salad and choice of ice cream for dessert.
Standard bar choices. I’ve ordered a bottle of pinot grigio here which was good.
Service is always excellent here, very friendly and food arrives reasonably fast.
Although there is nothing unique about this place as a Japanese restaurant in general, it’s one of the better choices in Clayton Park, so I get it for take-​out often, as well as dining in.

Love this place! Food is always delicious, service is quick and very friendly! It is very conveniently located as well! Great date environment! It’s quiet and relaxed only thing I’ll saw is that it’s usually fairly chilly but that’s what sweaters are for!
Hope you’ll give this place a try!

Service is great, and sushi is fresh and delicious. Did you know that they have happy hour menu? ;) I am not sure if I have actually saved money or spent even more money once I learned about the happy hour deals! But every penny was worth it. This Sushi Nami, one downtown, and one in Dartmouth Crossing are my favourite sushi spots in Halifax so far!

I always go to the Dresden row location and love it! Best sushi ever in my opinion. I love the bento boxes for lunch! They also have little stamp cards so that you can get a free lunch after so many lunches.
The only reason I am giving this location 3 stars is bc last time I went in the sushi rolls didn’t taste right; not to say they were by any means gross, they just tasted off. I usually find no difference between this location and Dresden row, but for some reason that night the rolls tasted different. Still good, but just not the same. Also it was absolutely freezing when I was there! Very chilly. Other than that service was great, atmosphere was nice.

This was my first time to this location having been a few times to the Dartmouth Crossing one. I found the décor similar and my only issue is that the space is limited and as such the tables seem just a bit too close. There was a couple in particular that seemed to hang on our every word… no matter how low we tried to talk.
The food here was as good as their other location. I found the sushi very good but not the best (hence the rating). None of my rolls fell apart (always good) and the temperature of the rolls was good (the rice was not cold). I stuck to basics and my friend was adventurous. The unagi was very good. The spicy scallop maki was good but seemed something was not quite right and I’d hate to suggest that it wasn’t 100% fresh but that could’ve been it as my taste buds for raw fresh scallops is pretty good. The Green Dragon (Fusion) and Firecrackers Dream my friend really liked and I took some pictures which I will post.
The service was very good. The waitress forgot my water near the beginning but once reminded she apologized and as another Reviewer stated she was sincere and even explained she had poured out the ice cubes and put the glass down and then forgotten — all perfectly fine.
The bathrooms are another matter. I do not know how long the hot water problem has been an issue in the ladies room but for goodness sake get it fixed. Both hot and cold taps have way too hot water coming out with a sign that I finally noticed on how to get cold water out. Lastly the TP holder in each stall is so full of dust and dirt that it turned me off from what was a clean bathroom. Another simple thing to fix and that means a lot to patrons.

This would have been a solid 4 stars but for the really ordinary chicken teriyaki. The sushi was delicious — I will definitely come back for more in the future!
The restaurant itself is very beautiful. Elegant décor, feels really upscale, considering the location. Good staff and quick service — I look forward to trying something other than the teriyaki and revisiting this review, because the sushi was excellent.
