The food and service at I-Naba is top notch. The chef specializes in showcasing the delicacy of their ingredients and it shows in all of their dishes. Every appetizer, entree and dessert is plated masterfully. You'll be greeted upon arrival and departure with utmost respect and appreciation.
I would definitely not recommend listening to other reviews from people that have issues with the size or the price of the entrees on the menu. It's a shame that many restaurants in the US claim to have Wagyu or Kobe beef when it really isn't. If you're all about the size and value rather than the quality and rarity of their selection of meat, you're better off going to TGI Fridays. You'd be hard pressed to find legit imported A5 Wagyu in States which retails at over $90 per pound.
This is the perfect restaurant if you're open to having a unique dining experience in a Japanese setting. The interior of the restaurant may not resemble that of Bazaar or Nobu, but the overall experience is one that you'll...

Exceptional! I very rarely have good luck trying new establishments but I was so pleasantly surprised.
The food…All of the dishes we had (filet, cod, ribeye, yellowtail, pepper steak) were excellently prepared. Each steak was cooked to desired temps. The timing of dishes coming out was perfect as well. We never felt rushed nor were there any delays.
The atmosphere…charming, comfortable and classy. I feel like you could dress up or down here.
The service…Beyond all expectations. We have an 18 month old and don’t like going to nicer restaurants just in case she isn’t feeling like a quiet dinner. So we went early to celebrate a birthday. Our server even knew how to even keep a baby happy. Clean high chair, water in a kids cup before we were even settled, plastic child size spoons and bowls. When my daughter started fussing because she wanted chop sticks, well here are some children’s learning chop sticks. Our service was friendly, elegant...
Read moreI was brought here as a surprise on Valentine's Day. Reservations were set for 6pm, but upon arrival, a certain handsome gentleman's name wasn't found on the list. However, 10 minutes later, the hostess walked us to a table. Nice save.
There was a pre-fix menu just for Valentine's Day, but we really just came for the wagyu steaks. We each had our own wagyu steak cooked medium-well, and they served it just right, along with mash potatoes (really flavorful, yet light) and veggies (just as tasty, but not greasy). Overall, the portion was just right and everything I ate didn't leave a heavy feeling.
There's even room for dessert! A strawberry creme brulee was shared and it wasn't too sweet, but some parts of it were cold, which led me to think it wasn't freshly made. Even so, it was still yummy.
All in all, nice ambiance inside, no need to shout to have a conversation, and service was great. Hoping the bf and I will be...
