NOMIYA Sushi & Izakaya

OVERVIEW

The newest addition to the Restaurant Collection at SIMON Roosevelt Field mall, Nomiya — which translates to ‘saloon’ — stands as the area’s first izakaya. Inspired by the Japanese philosophy of minimalism, the interior of Nomiya is split between a hickory-accented bar and a windowed dining room framed by black granite walls.

After having successfully opened Keki Modern Cakes – the bakery that single-handedly brought the viral bouncy cheesecake trend stateside – founders Ajay Chawla, Lawrence Wai, and Moul Kim sought to introduce Nassau County to sophisticated East Asian fare with a unique, local spin.
