Service, thanks Emily, was wonderful. Two items on the menu had been changed but the new item we had (veggies with yogurt and feta) was amazing!

Loved our dinner at Nomad. Tried two dishes new to us: English pea hummus and ramen noodles with pork belly, bok choy and mushrooms, NUMMY! Plus enjoyed a couple favorites, Cesar salad and flank steak with grits. There’s a reason they are favs. Thanks for the wonderful meal on quiet, rainy October Wednesday. We will be back 😊

The food and service never disappoints! We go here once a week and bring friends when they are in town. In the winter, we often come for the happy hour specials. Bring back the duck fat fries, we miss them:)

The food was exceptional as was the service. We loved the specialty drinks. I was there in late September and had an outstanding dining experience then too, the chef had different choices on the menu tonight, and once again all delicious. I highly recommend.

We were so disappointed with our experience at the Nomad. The food was at best poor quality, improperly cooked and way over priced. We ordered the mussel appetizer which included one that was not open and should not have been served. The beef tenderlion was under cooked, had no flavor and was served with ice cold potatoes. The seafood pasta dish contained very little seafood and the one scallop in the dish was raw inside. It was a terrible experience and will never return nor recommend this resturant to any of our friends. A put a damper on the start of a 50th wedding anniversary weekend.
