Nami restaurant review: Bold cocktails meet rich flavours

Housed in the exclusive Nobu hotel in Shoreditch, Nami serves as an extension of the hotel’s unique brand of minimalist Japanese traditionalism with contemporary luxury styling.

The restaurant describes itself as a “supper bar” serving Japanese street food, so the dining area is not so much set up for formal sit-down dinners, as for relaxed drinks and sharing plates. Nami means “wave” in Japanese, which is portrayed in the room by subtle, midnight blue lighting. The walls display projections of moving artwork that somewhat mimics the woodblock style of Katsushika Hokusai’s The Great Wave.
