Absolutely perfect food and perfect staff
I have been to Nagisa twice now. The staff could not be lovelier. The food is incredible, and as a vegetarian, I can say I was very well catered for! It is a bit pricy, but worth it as a special treat.
Thank you so much I’ll be back.
This is definitely the best Japanese food in Newcastle or anywhere closeby. Great waterfront location, friendly, efficient staff and most importantly excellent food. I loved the Yakiniku - the miso sauce complemented it so well. I'll definitely be going back.
