Why Travelers Love Nozomi
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
Wonderful place for a cozy elevated dinner or just drinks, with a cosmopolitan vibe. Excellent food quality, fantastic (non-alcoholic) cocktails, and a well thought interior design, which we had the chance to explore in detail thanks to the very attentive manager, Khaled. The Early Dinner Menu was rich in flavours and quantity. Thank you, we loved it ! I had an amazing experience at Nozomi in Arabia! The atmosphere is elegant yet relaxed, with great music and a beautiful setting. The food was absolutely delicious — every dish was perfectly presented and full of flavor. A special mention goes to Mahmoud, our waiter, who made the whole evening even better. He was extremely attentive, kind, and made sure everything was perfect from start to finish. His recommendations were spot on and he truly went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. If you’re looking for a wonderful intimate experience with friends and, or loved ones then this is the place for you. From the friendly staff, to beautiful atmosphere. The place offer class with good vibe. The food offers a taste of the Saudi culture, with taste and texture. Offers a wide variety. Staff is very attentive and flexible I enjoyed that. Thank you for an intimate exquisite experience. 🙌🏽

If you’re craving authentic Japanese cuisine in Riyadh, Nozomi is the place to go. The atmosphere is refined, the service is spot-on, and the food delivers exactly what you’d expect from a top-tier restaurant. Every dish met our expectations, and we’ll definitely be coming back.

Overall nice experience from reception to dining to ordering the food. The service is very good. The food is great as expected but the crab salad has too much sauce. Overall good experience and nice food.
