If I could, I’d give it 3.5 stars. My friend and I got three specialty rolls: salmon on the beach, red sea, and king kong. Total came out to around $ 39 after tip, which is pretty normally priced and we left the restaurant stuffed. Salmon on the beach was tasty and unique, a bit much with the cream cheese, but for sure worth trying — my friend loved it. Red sea was good, king kong was good. All in all, it’s sushi, nothing crazy good or bad about the food here. Definitely wasn’t a fan of the service. The waitress seemed pretty impatient right off the bat even though she had no other customers/nothing really to do. The only time I saw her smile was when she was reaching for the tip at the end. Food came out a bit slow(again, there were maybe two other tables eating, and we all came at different times, they were not busy). It took around 25 minutes for all three rolls to come out.

I’ve been here several times. It’s good, but not great… and certainly not the best sushi in town. That said, it’s convenient, good enough and generally well-priced. Unfortunately, the last few times I’ve ordered take out, I’ve been disappointed. On my last visit, one member of staff was particularly unpleasant. Upon picking up our order, he rolled his eyes and audibly sighed when my sister asked for a side of spicy mayo. On his way to get it, he slipped on something on the floor and said«F*ck» no fewer than four times when telling someone to clean it up. After getting our food home, I was disappointed to find that the seaweed salad was overpriced and small. $ 4 for about 4 bites is a little steep anywhere. I also discovered that one of my rolls(the princess roll) was not what I ordered. I took it back to the restaurant and they immediately said I must have seen the«old» princess roll that was still listed on the online menu(the new roll is completely different). Rather than apologizing for the confusion, I was mostly treated as though I was bothering them for not knowing about the change, but they still said that they would remake the old recipe. While waiting, I asked for an updated takeout menu, and was told the takeout menu still lists the«old» roll too. When the same guy from earlier brought the newly made roll over, he told me that he really should charge me for it(despite their online and takeout menus being wrong), but since the boss wasn’t in, «f*ck it.»

Just ok. The service is good and the food is ok. Nothing special.

I’ve come here a few times now and I’ll probably keep coming back. :) As others have said, you get a great bang for the buck. This is especially true if you get one of their«giant rolls,» like the King Kong. This roll was $ 9.50, but it was huge and very filling. Salmon on the Beach is another tasty roll. It comes warm, since it’s torched. I’ve had a few of their regular rolls, including the spicy salmon and boston rolls; they were average at worst and bursting with flavor at best. Compliments are to be given to the staff as well. They’ve always been welcoming. I once went a few minutes after closing(I didn’t realize what time it was) and they still took my order for takeout and were friendly the whole time. If you’re near North Campus and have a sushi craving then you should come here!

It started with sit anywhere you would like. I sit down. I am then asked to move because the workers are going to sit there and eat soon. That’s fine okay, I move I order the lunch special 3 rolls 10 $ not bad I ask for soup and salad. The miso was bland and looked like the instant soup out of a packet. Salad dressing not good. All three of my rolls are so salty I don’t know if I can even finish them. And to top that off I found hair in my ginger. I’m not normally someone that writes a bad review I normally just never go back but today I am just so disappointed.

If I could, I would give Nagomi 3.5 stars. There are definitely better sushi restaurants in Ann Arbor but Nagomi’s the best value in North Campus. My favorite things to get are the daily lunch specials. The udon special is a bowl of broth and noodles accompanied with 6 pieces of the choice roll of the day. The curry rice is also a great choice for anybody not craving sushi. When eating sushi, price is a difficult thing to reconcile. To get full, you will probably have to spend around $ 15 which is pretty reasonable for sushi. I recommend the Salmon on the Beach roll or spicy salmon.

I came here numerous times and have tried majority of the menu. There are pros and cons to this restaurant. Although there are great qualities of this restaurant, I can only give three stars because there are just too many downsides. CONS: I am not a fan of their appetizers. My friend and I really wanted to get to know the menu so we ordered all the appetizers to try them and I hated all of them. I just don’t know how to put it… none of it was delicious… for example, the chicken appetizer was EXTREMELY dry. I would also avoid the desserts. The green tea cheesecake was FROZEN.(Like ROCKHARD frozen). I struggled to cut the cheesecake with a knife. The service is slow and unprofessional. Every time I come here my server seems nervous and clueless. PROS: Ton Kat Su is DELICIOUS. I love the noodles it comes with too! The sushi rolls are quite scrumptious. They’re not the best in town, but they are delightful. I like the chirashi here. Not the freshest fish ever, but quite delightful. I also really enjoy the hot pots here. The location is what brings me back every time. It’s very convenient because I live on North Campus.

One plus about Nagomi Sushi is that since it’s right next to the Courtyards apartments and North Campus it stays open late to serve hungry college students, and the workers don’t seem perturbed by late diners either. The boy and I came in for quite a late dinner ~9:30pm. One gets a choice of complimentary miso soup or salad, and we both went with the typical salad of lettuce leaves with a gingery dressing. We ordered a spicy salmon roll, spicy tuna roll, rainbow roll, and eel and avocado roll. I normally don’t like saucy sushi rolls, and our assortment of classic rolls hit the spot for me.

It’s wet outside, I’m tired, I’m hungry and I live too close to a sushi restaurant that I once heard(from a trusted source might I add) that it was really good. I thought to myself, «In this plaza, this plaza right here. The one that I have been avoiding for the year that I have lived in the area?» Yes, that very one. ONCEAGAIN — I am upset with myself, all that venturing off to downtown to find good food when it’s right in my backyard?! I walked in like a wet cat, upset at the weather and the world and two smiles greet me and ask, «Table for you?» I mumbled, «I just want take out,» and quickly that smile walked toward me with a menu. I skimmed it, the options seemed like too many, and upon my hubs walking in, I decided that I would get things we both liked. Simple enough — cream cheese, tempura, tuna and salmon. Sunday Morning, A Dragon Roll, and Tuna something was what we put on our menu and coincidentally the order in which we liked them. While we waited, we were offered tea and water, in which I happily chose some tea. No longer a wet cat, I became a warm soul. Within minutes my food was ready and not even a half hour later, around the time of the first bite, I was in sushi paradise and couldn’t have been happier. Definitely happy to have taken my friends’ advice, this will definitely be my new restaurant haunt(when I don’t feel like venturing to Yotsuba). With such a lovely staff and spacious layout, I definitely will be back. PS. I also really liked that I didn’t have to wait the way I might have at Yotsuba(shots fired). PSPS… Yes, I know Yotsuba is worth it.

Maybe we had a bad meal, but it is hard for me to understand how this restaurant could earn *any* 4-star reviews.
I ordered the Shoyu ramen, my wife ordered a sushi dish, my sons ordered curry udon and shrimp tempura. Every dish was below average, and generally well below what I could make at home. The Shoyu ramen was bland and the broth was clearly from a package mix, not homemade. The vegetables and meat were also not fresh. They included a pickled vegetable in the ramen, which conflicted awfully with the ramen broth. I could easily make better ramen at home! I should say I lived in Japan one year and have high standards, but this was not even close. I took one bite of my wife’s salmon, and it was mealy. Fresh ingredients are an absolute must in sushi, and this fell far short of that mark. The tempura was overly battered, not served lightly battered as is the Japanese tradition. The best dish was the curry udon. About what you would expect. This dish relies less on fresh ingredients that the others we ordered. Although the dining room was clean and attractively decorated, service was painstakingly slow. From other reviews it appears Nagomi chronically understaffed. I would not come back for either noodles or sushi, even as a back up. A disappointment.

Medium sized sushi restaurant located on the North Campus of the University of Michigan. The restaurant itself was clean and the service was very friendly. I went during lunch time on a particularly snowy day, but there were still several customers in the restaurant. I ordered one of the lunch combinations, which came with a small udon and small chirashi bowl. My friend with me order the katsu curry. The udon itself tasted like any other udon I had. The soup wasn’t too sweet or salty and the noodles were cooked well. The chirashi bowl was so-so as well. The bowl came with from what I could tell — salmon, tuna, white tuna(?), tilapia, imitation crab, and tamago. It’s not the usual stuff you see in a chirashi bowl, but I can’t complain about a lunch special. Unfortunately, the fish wasn’t the freshest fish, where the fish tasted slightly water-logged(best I could describe) and had a slight fishy taste as well. My friend’s katsu curry was not bad either. There wasn’t much katsu(just one pretty flat cutlet), but a good hefty portion of rice and curry. The curry itself was pretty good; however, the flavor was a little strong. I can make normal curry taste bland after having this curry. Not much of a complain because of the taste of curry, but beware it you are looking for a light curry — this is the opposite of that!

Slow as hell Service is slower than me solving an algebra problem. I’ve been here for 15 minutes and just got my lunch request taken. Seriously?? And I thought Asians were fast! This is the 3rd time I’ve come here and had to wait at length. I won’t be back!

I used to come to this restaurant for lunch a few years ago and loved the food and service, so I was excited to go back for dinner. My husband and I went on a Friday evening and we were very disappointed. It was very understaffed– 2 servers managing the entire restaurant. We were sat at a dirty table and waited for the tabletop o be cleaned. We ordered pork katsu, spicy salmon roll, and yum yum roll. Pork katsu was very overcooked. Spicy salmon roll had a weird brown spot on it and was not a roll– it was dilapidated!(I posted a picture of this). And yum yum roll is supposed to have crab meat per the menu, but it was imitation crab stick. Again, this too, was over fried like the katsu… the fish in the roll was half-cooked as a result. The server never came back to check on us or the food after dropping off the dishes.

After searching in vain for a go to sushi place in town I think I finally found it in Nagomi. First off, it’s north of downtown which means far less crowded. I do like Miki’s okay but on a busy evening parking can be a real bitch and I like that Nagomi is a bit removed from all that. Secondly, the rolls are pretty well priced. Some of the fancier stuff is expensive but if you stick with the basic rolls like spicy tuna or salmon it’s about 6 bucks a pop. Not terrible and certainly cheaper than the equivalent at some other places around town(I’m looking at you, Plum Market). Thirdly, yes. The lunch specials ARE all that. Great deals here, folks. Fourthly, not just sushi. But udon, curries, and more. Great if you’re craving a roll but also if you want something warm and comforting like a bowl of udon. Now, I haven’t tried them yet but I like that they’re offered. Will update next time when I give them a taste. Okay, I’m going to stop numbering now. This place IS great, though. The avocado bowl, as many have pointed out, is FANTASTIC. I love the creaminess of the fresh avocado and the spicy tuna, the kick of the wasabi mayo, and a bit of crunch thanks to the tempura bits tucked inside. Also, yes. The salmon on the beach roll is the bomb. I LOVED the char on the top. Added a great element of flavor to the roll. Too bad I just bought a boatload of groceries yesterday. Because after writing this review I am now craving this place something fierce!
