Everything was super delicious and the waiter was very knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly. The focaccia bread was amazing!

I can't say enough wonderful things about our experience at Nome last night! From the moment we walked in the door, everyone was so wonderful - the host, our server Reed, the bussers and bar tender!It was my partners birthday and moments after we got seated, they brought everyone in our party a glass of the most delicious champagne, on the house! We ordered the focaccia for an appie, that was served with a marinara and cream sauce. Everyone LOVED their meals and the pasta was cooked to perfection! We ordered the funghi pasta, duck ragu, calamari, broccolini and the special which was a shrimp pasta dish. I recommend all but the duck ragu was my favorite!We brought a birthday cake and they brought it out (with candles lit) after we finished dinner and even cut and served it to us.Nome, thank you so much for making our night so special. You truly went above and beyond. We will be back!

I was so excited to try this place. I was sadly disappointed. I placed a take-out order to be ready 15 minutes after they opened. However, we did not enjoy either of the items we ordered. I ordered the Zonzona and my partner ordered the Bufalo pizza. I feel like the portion of pasta I received was pretty small for $24. My noodles were cold. They also were not cooked all the way and so they were gummy and stuck in my teeth. The pizza was also a little interesting. The crust was not for us and oil dripped off the slices we ate. Not a big deal but we also were given only one set of silverware, which was lacking a fork. Maybe we would have a better experience of we actually dined at the restaurant.

Nome hosted us for a family birthday and I cannot rage enough about our experience! We reserved a table for 6 and unlike other reviews never found the atmosphere to be too loud or too much. The service we received from Reed and support staff was 10/10! Chef and kitchen absolutely killed it on all of our dishes and Reed’s attention to detail, pacing and vibe were immaculate! Everyone at our table thoroughly enjoyed their dish! Wine knowledge and recommendations were off the chart, bar service was impeccable and the cake cutting and plating was above and beyond with each plate featuring a different adornment of the cake we had brought. I would one million percent recommend this spot but especially for those in the industry that know how it goes - I’m sure it gets busy and those who don’t quite get it won’t understand. For those of us that do, eat here immediately.

Food was fine, but for the price and the amount!? Ridiculous. Other restaurants in town are much more worth the price, taste and quantity.

This place is one our favorites in town. Chloe is a stellar bartender, the staff is great (shoutout to Reed for the burrata recommendation), and the food is always on point. Try the wood fired oysters, they’re the sneaky best appetizer!

Went to Nome with daughters and grandson for my wife’s birthday! To begin with the hostess was incredibly accommodating and very pleasant. We were seated and our server, Rachel engaged with us and was simply awesome. Very knowledgeable and friendly, not to mention being a superb server. Will definitely ask for her every time we visit. Food? Exceptional to say the least! The appetizers we ordered were amazing from the fantastic focaccia to the meatballs, oysters and calamari. The main dishes were incredible! We had the chicken Parmesan, veal, the truffle pasta and the duck ragu. Personally and haven eaten in fine restaurants coast-to-coast, I’m not sure that I have ever had a pasta dish as flavorful and as delicious as that duck ragu was! A serving of tiramisu in honor of my wife’s birthday was served and all deemed it delicious but we simply were too full to order additional desserts off of a very interesting dessert menu. . Next time! I highly recommend Nome for all the reasons you consider before calling a restaurant your favorite.

We were excited for our first visit to what looks like a great Italian restuarant. Ordered wine, appetizers and our favorite pasta dish -Carbonara. While drinking our wine we were listening to the piped in music which, rather than a typical dinner music selection was rap with a lot of F-bombs dropped in. Nothing says class, enhances ambiance or sets the tone for a nice dinner like rap does. It was obvious that we were too old school and not the clientel this restuarant is targeting, so we canceled our dinner and left after the appetizers-which was a bummer because the appetizer was amazing .

Service was top notch! The food was absolutely amazing! Best tiramisu we've ever had! Couldn't rate the atmosphere with 5 ☆ due to being in a corner in the back and view of restaurant was obstructed. We will be back again!

The food was great, the lady who served us only seemed to be interested in serving when the bill was given.The Asian gentleman (busboy?) was more aware and helpful than her throughout our dining experience. I would’ve preferred to tip him.

I made a reservation via their 3rd party service where I was told the $41 deposit I put down would be deducted from the bill. It was not. When I noticed, I reached out to the restaurant twice and have not received any communication back nor have I received a refund for the deposit. Be careful!

They charged a 3% health and wellness fee on the bill!I was born here and I'm looking forward to them getting what they deserve, and going out of business!

Disappointing experience. Restaurant is far too big and the food is not worth the price. Maybe it's time for establishments like this to die a slow death.
