Media Coverage and Accolades for NAMO

In 2018, Brandon Cohanim opened Namo in Dallas’ West Village, debuting it as a handroll bar. Since then, Brandon has joined forces with his brother Henry, and Namo has evolved into what is arguably Dallas’ most sophisticated sushi bar, led by executive chef-partner Kazuhito “Kaz” Mabuchi. Kaz came to Namo from Sushi Ginza Onadera, the Michelin two-star destination in Los Angeles. LBC was engaged to handle Namo’s PR and Marketing in March, 2024.
