    Nomad provides consistently great food with a wide variety of menu choices. This allows for multiple taste palettes. Inconsistent service quality is something that should be understood as restaurants clamor for staff. If you temper your service requirements you will be well rewarded with a great meal and drink selection at a reasonable price.

    I have had dinner at Nomad’s several times. The food has been wonderful each time and the atmosphere perfect. The waiters are always friendly and attentive. Each time, as we left, all the staff/management that we passed thanked us for dining with them.

    The food at Nomad is always delicious. Service was slower than usual, probably due to several events happening in town last night.

    The outdoor area was comfortable but for the loud music on the speaker outside the restaurant. Not necessary. The service was good but for the end of our meal when we wanted to order desert and after we were all done and ready for the check, both times had to flag down the server. But I’d definitely return, the food was excellent. Good choices for GF and vegetarian meals.
