Reviews Summary

Nagomi is lauded for its exceptionally fresh and high-quality sushi and sashimi, offering an authentic Japanese dining experience. While many praise the attentive service and genuine izakaya atmosphere, some find the seating cramped and the noise level high. Occasional issues with service speed or table allocation have been noted, but the overall consensus points to delicious food.

"Sushi were incredibly good, very fresh, tuna was melting in the mouth. Tempura vegetables are also good, tempura shrimps were too fat to my taste.
The atmosphere was the same as in Japan, authentic and simple."

Maria Esau

"Seated at the bar since I was dining here solo on a Thursday evening. Friendly staff and it was spacious enough for me. The sushi here is indeed amazing, I ordered mixed sushi (#5) and I enjoyed every single one of them. I paired it with Japanese beer, and I was happy. As extras I've also ordered edamame and fried sardines. I think those were a little overpriced for the portion that you get."

JP Flores

"Summary of my visit to Nagomi in one sentence: „Easily Top 10% quality sushi in Europe, to which I would probably never return.“
Highly probably anyone living in Europe wouldnt find this quality sushi anywhere outside of Düsseldorf. Good shari (rice) and good neta (fish). Though the quality of Shari is different every plate you order.
Shimesaba (makerel) definitely was my favorite, we had sashimi, nigiri and battera version of it and all three were great.
Ebi Tempura was ok, natto was not good, foie gras with daikon was just ok for me (but my friends found it great), otoro nigiri (6,5€/pc) was obviously unbelievably good (shari was at its best when we ordered extra single nigiris), agedashi tofu was ok, sake we had was mediocre but obviously these are very personal opinions.
Service all in all was all fine, but we are also very tolerant because we all come from same industry.
Then why only two stars…
I reserved the table about 2 weeks prior, but the table we got was no joke the worst one they had in the restaurant. The door was literally 20 cm right of me when i sat at the table. (So please avoid this table at all cost if you can.) But if the restaurant is that busy and if thus that table was the only table they could offer, thats just the way it is. BUT while we were there, literally the table next to us was free well until after we left, a group of 10 guests walked in without reservation, they got tables in the liddle of the restaurant that was the most ridiculous part of our visit. But wait it gets better.
Our reservation was 18:30 we arrived 18:20. we left the restaurant at 19:54 so technically we stayed for 90 minutes. Three of us spent 270€ (incl. 20€ tip). After I paid with long delay (the manager had to type in every single bill upon request because they work only manually with paper 🤷🏻‍♂️) he rushed to my table where my friends were luterally getting ready to leave, and asked them if we were done, and if yes we should leave because next guests were waiting. We were literally standing up and leaving when he had to come across so rudly and requested us to stand up and leave. I mean…. Why would anyone do that.. I was so embarassed, my friends were so pissed to be treated like that after spending 270€ for dinner for 3 which durated 90 minutes.
90 minutes of hard work done by the kitchen staff, service staff down the drain by one managerial staff in 30 seconds. Thats naturally gifted talent, please stay away from this industry.
In summary, Go to a different japanese restaurant called Yabase which is even better and i have been there numerous times and never had bad experiences. Nagomi would be only an option for someone looking for quality food on a sunday or a monday or when you cant get a table at Yabase.
As far as I am concerned, I am not returning, ever again."

Japanische Restaurants: Die besten Adressen in Düsseldorf

Ebenfalls authentisch ist die Alltagsküche im beliebten Nagomi, ein japanisches Restaurant im Bahnhofsviertel: „80 Prozent meiner Gäste sind Japaner“, erzählt Patron Hitoshi Nishizuka. Im schlichten Raum mit Sushi-Theke kommen Sake, der Schnaps Shōchū zusammen mit Rheinhessen-Riesling auf die blanken Holztische, stoßen Alt und Pils mit Kirin- und Asahi-Bier an. Gekonnt bereitet Nishizuka klassisches Sushi und Sashimi zu, brät aber auch Gänseleber, die er, über gekochten Rettich gelegt, mit zarter Miso-Sauce begießt.

Japanische Restaurants in Düsseldorf: Die Geheimtipps für Sushi & Ramen

Im Nagomi wird eher selten Deutsch oder gar Englisch gesprochen, doch wer die Sprachhürde einmal überwunden hat, der freut sich über einige der leckersten Sushi der Stadt: das einfach eingerichtete Restaurant auf der Bismarckstraße gehört zu den authentischsten Japan-Erlebnissen in Düsseldorf. Wer mit Sushi nichts anfangen kann, findet hier übrigens auch einige äußerst empfehlenswerte Alternativen: Allen voran die dicken Udon-Nudeln sind mehr als nur eine Empfehlung wert.

Düsseldorf is the city with the highest Japanese population in Germany. It is only logical that the best selection of Japanese food culture in Germany is to be found in Düsseldorf. When I am in the city center shopping with the girls and we are craving sushi we usually stop at MARUYASU in Shadow Akarden.
