He is the landlord & operator for Palace Garden and the Wing Hong. He is definitely the landlord of Nagomi because I speak to him when I go and see him in the Palace Garden.

I have never been, but hope people like it! My friends family owns it, whichever one is open now, and they are Japanese, they just took over it recently. I have never been, but hope people like it!

The ground floor will have a bar, with bar food and a sushi bar. A kawaii touch of east meet west to the bar food, eg fish and chips but with tempura batter on the fish. The first floor will have the japanese grills, where you can sit and watch your food being cooked. But also it will have booths for a more private feel. It is also going to have karaoki rooms for parties. I was lucky enough to get a preview of the resturant in the summer when on a photoshoot. I got to talk to the manager. Sadly still will be run by Chinese and not Japanese. However I think it will offer a diffrent experience than the other Japanese resturants. I for one can't wait.

I used to like it, it closed. The place stayed empty and unchanged for years. Now they are refurbishing it. The new graphics have gone up. It's still called Nagomi. It seems as if the new set up stretches up to the forth floor! What on earth are their plans? It looks like it might have a shop and a resturant on the ground floor, but what on earth are they doing with the other floors? I dream they are opening a proper Japanese style karaoke place. Sad, I know - but it'll be nice to have some new Japanese things in town. I just travelled in Japan, and didn't see any of the egg juggling onsense that those other tired looking Newcastle based Japanese resturants get up to! (*ahem* Fujiyama and Hanahana) Get this placed opened again, and let me in to review it! :) What is going on with this resturant?

Shame. From what I remember it was run by Japanese with Japanese staff. Unfortunately seeing as the place has now closed (so I've been told) I don't think anyone will be sampling their food anymore.

I chose one of teh set menus aswell, I had 9 delicious courses which included desert and (AAAAAH) sushi! I was a first timer at sushi and was needless to say a bit nervous. However it wasnt as drastic as I thought it would be. The sushi course consisted of octopus, mackerel and clam; the mackerel was divine, the octopus and clam tasted very similar but the clam had the texture of flem! Overall I was extremely impressed with the food (all 9 courses!). And the sake menu is fantastic and is served it what look like bongs! I went to Nagomi and had a fantastic time!
