Nami Lily Sushi & Ramen — Restaurant in South Jordan

TLDR: Just GO. Order the spicy beef ramen. (Or miso)

I normally won't give a full five stars. In fact I honestly don't remember the last time I have for a food establishment. When I first walked in a girl named Katie was there to greet me and have me seated extremely quickly. The food and atmosphere is only two thirds of this rating. Katie quickly earned the other third of this rating. Over the span of 5 days I have eaten at this restaurant no less than 9 times. I've been in Utah many times and at many different restaurants that serve ramen and or sushi and I have never quite found one that does either one spectacularly, let alone both.

Having tried every option of ramen they offer except the vegan, I can definitely say without a doubt; this is homemade, authentic, made-with-love ramen. I had the pleasure of talking to the owner; the one who designed the menu and recipes for the food, and she is beyond capable of running an incredible establishment with exquisite food. This restaurant is going places. And if you're going places anywhere near here you need to stop at Nami Lily sushi & Ramen.

The atmosphere was honestly modest, but it does wonders for the small space that this restaurant has to utilize. Tasteful, nothing over the top, clean, and incredibly well-managed. None of the gimmicky over the top tourist attracting common tropes when it comes to a restaurant similar in nature.

Did I mention the speed and price? From the moment I sat down to the moment I received my food took on average less than 5 minutes. Every. Single. Time. Which was again, 9 times.

For the price of a McDonald's meal and a smoothie I was able to get exquisite sushi, amazing service, fast delivery time, and what is arguably the most important thing when it comes to a restaurant...consistency.

I will not only be recommending this restaurant but I will be making special trips from my home 2 hours away to come back to...

I've gone to a lot of Ramen places in Utah, and this is by far one of the best I've ever been to! Between my family, we had the Shoyu Ramen (which is a Soy Sauce base), Chicken Ramen, Miso Ramen, and Spicy Miso Ramen. I tasted all of the broths my family had, and each one was excellent and very authentic tasting as well. The Shoyu ramen was honestly the best I've ever had. We were lucky enough to have a chat with the awesome owner. She said she cooks the broths for 8 hours, and let me tell you the depth of flavors they all had was truly amazing. Having a good broth is half the battle with Ramen. The other half are the noodles. They were very authentic ramen noodles cooked perfectly and had that ever so light chew like a good Ramen should have. All topped off with the perfectly cooked soft boiled egg. Not to mention, you can get a lean pork loin instead of more trational fatty pork belly. I'm very happy to have this option since I prefer lean meats.

We also had some sushi; Sunset roll, San Francisco roll, California hand roll, and a Las Vegas roll. You can really taste the fresh fish and vegetables in them, really good sushi. We had some pot stickers too, really good filling and cooked perfectly.

I kid you not when I tell you my family finished all of our meals, it was that good! It's definitely family-friendly here. My kids kept talking about how good the Ramen, Sushi, and Pot stickers were on the way home.

We are definitely coming back. They have so many menu items we still want to try. Nami Lily, thank you for such a...

We had a group of 4 on a Saturday night before our movie. It was busy, but we were still helped and sat immediately, which was helpful since we could have ended up running late to the movie. The waitress was really nice and attentive. We had potstickers and takoyaki as appetizers and really enjoyed them. They do use a different sauce with the potstickers than we have normally seen, but it was still good. We had 3 of us with ramen (tonkatsu, chicken, and miso) and 1 with the Las Vegas roll. We all had water, with one person having sake as well. For the two pork ramen bowls, they do ask if you want pork loin or belly, which was a first for me. I'm pretty sure this is the best pork belly I've had. Perfect ratio of fat to meat and sooooo tasty. They have lots of noodles, which I prefer over excessive broth. I'm actually not a soup person, so it was definitely nice to have lots of noodles. No bean sprouts, which was a little sad, but it was still definitely worth it. Pretty relaxed atmosphere, but quick service. I would highly recommend. If I didn't live an hour away, I'd definitely use this as my go-to ramen place. My husband considers this the 2nd best ramen place he has ever been to (he's obsessed with one in SLC), which is pretty high praise from him. Normally I'd take pics, but forgot because we were so rushed, but they did have good...
