Noko Yaki Fires Up Tableside Grilling on West End Avenue in Nashville
Noko Yaki has opened at 3201 West End Avenue in Nashville, in the former Tin Angel space, with doors opening to the public on Friday, November 6, 2026. The restaurant is the third concept from Noko Hospitality, the team behind Noko and Kase x Noko.
The restaurant describes itself as a high energy, Asian inspired steakhouse led by James Beard semifinalist chef Dung Vo, set in a landmark building on Nashville's west end that revives a nearly 100 year old space while preserving original and historic details. The experience centers on tableside grilling, with Japanese yakiniku and Korean barbecue influences, and the restaurant is one of only two in Tennessee officially registered by the Kobe Beef Marketing and Distribution Promotion Association.
Noko Yaki serves dinner Tuesday through Thursday and Sunday from 5 to 9 p.m. and Friday and Saturday from 5 to 10 p.m., closed Monday, with reservations released on OpenTable 30 days in advance.
