    The best brunch I’ve ever had. Ever. The staff were all incredibly friendly and helpful. Great physical space with lively atmosphere but not too noisy. The food was simply exquisite. We enjoyed the tuna crispy rice, salmon carpaccio, burnt ends with rice and Japanese fried chicken. It seemed like each one was better than the next. I can’t recommended Noko highly enough. You’re missing out if you’re in Nashville and don’t dine here.

    I like my steak well done and there are very few places I go to that they can cook it that way and it still taste good but that did that here. My steak was delicious. Also, the service was top notched. The folks that took care of us did an amazing job. Everything was fantastic.
