Nakama's South Side location appears to have shut down
A popular Japanese steakhouse and sushi bar in Pittsburgh may be shut down for good.
Nakama Japanese Steakhouse and Sushi Bar on East Carson Street in Pittsburgh's South Side appears to be closing its doors. According to a report from the Trib, an employee arrived for work earlier this week and was told by their manager that the place was shutting down.
Back in September, Nakama was flagged by the Allegheny County Health Department for pest management violations, including inspectors finding four dead mice, one of them found in the grill in the dining room.
There were other violations found by the health department, including poor employee hygiene practices, improper cleaning and sanitation, and malfunctioning facilities to maintain temperature.
While there has been no confirmation by Nakama of the closure, if it does indeed shut down, it would be the second closure in the last year, with their Wexford location having shut down last summer.

Grupo Firme Cancel La Onda Performance in Napa Amid U.S. Visa Issues
Grupo Firme will no longer be performing at 2025's La Onda Fest this weekend in Napa due to ongoing visa issues. The Mexican band announced the news in a statement shared to Instagram Stories on Friday evening. 'Grupo Firme and Música VIP's visas are currently in an administrative process at the U.S. embassy, a situation that makes it impossible for Grupo Firme's performance at La Onda Fest to go on as planned,' wrote the band. 'We will share news soon on our return to the U.S. so we can see each other again and sing, dance, and celebrate together.'

The festival organizers announced that Tito Double P will replace Grupo Firme's appearance on the Verizon Stage. The cancellation arrives roughly two weeks after the Michelada Festival nixed its 2025 event over the escalating volatility around artist visas, which rang the alarm for several other Latin artists scheduled to perform around the country. Along with Grupo Firme, the Michelada fest lineup included Luis R. Conriquez, Los Alegres Del Barranco, and Netón Vega. After Los Alegres' visas were revoked by the State Department over their portrayal of a cartel kingpin at a show in Mexico and the group was replaced by Gabito Ballesteros, event organizers ended up cancelling the fest altogether amid uncertainty around visa statuses for both Ballesteros and Conriquez. Since taking office, President Donald Trump and his administration have made securing work visas incredibly difficult for international artists.
