Nom Restaurant

Given this price range, this Japanese restaurant was absolutely worth trying! My favorite dish was grilled octopus. It’s so fresh and juicy. With very little soy and wasabi. It was delicious enough already. Sashimi was totally worth the price. Cos it’s relatively cheap. Gyoza was absolute homemade taste, thin wrap with juicy fillings. Very recommended. Waugh beef was a bit average tbh, you might not like the raw egg sauce.

15/10. Our absolute FAVOURITE Japanese restaurant in Sydney. No frills, just simply delicious, comfort, Japanese food. 🙇🏻‍♀️😋 I've been coming to Nom since 2012 when I first arrived to Sydney. To date, I've probably eaten there almost 15x and have tried almost every item on the menu, yet I'm STILL amazed at how effortlessly delicious the food is every single visit. The 𝙏𝘼𝙈𝘼𝙂𝙊 𝙞𝙨 𝙩𝙤 𝙙𝙞𝙚 𝙛𝙤𝙧. I don't say this often... But my mouth literally waters everytime I think of this multi-layered, soft, fluffy, steamy egg omelette. I don't know what goes into it, but it is soooo full of umami and has a subtle sweetness that just makes you crave for more. I can go on and on about this egg, it is truly thaaaaat magical. Trust me. Their whole menu is simple yet each dish is executed with poise and knowledge of how textures and flavours balance out. Portions are like your typical izakaya snacks that go perfectly well with a nice cold beer. Between 2 people, you can easily order 5-7 dishes to try. 𝗠𝘂𝘀𝘁-𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗹𝗶𝘀𝘁: - Tamago - Mentai potato salad - Vinegar mackerel But literally everything is good. I've also gotta mention, this small izakaya only seats about 6 tables and is runned by 3 older Japanese ladies (could be 3 generations?) in a tiny kitchen -- it honestly feels like you're just eating at a Japanese grandmother's home - simply welcoming, homey, and cozy.
