Nori Sushi offers both a sushi and an Asian fusion menu. Sit out on the large patio and people watch as you enjoy a plate of chicken lollipops that have been made with three Asian spices or a serving of sweet and chili tofu. Or choose to sit indoors at one of the comfortable tables and enjoy a plate of seafood pancakes or a jumbo lump crab cake. Nori Sushi offers several lunch specials such as the bento box with choices including teriyaki, tempura or galbi. Whether you come for lunch or dinner, sitting at the sushi bar is always an option where you can watch the chefs prepare your order of nigari or sashimi. Rolls and special rolls are also available. Nori Sushi offers a large drink menu with choices of red and white wines, sake and beer. There are several signature cocktails that can be tailored to your taste.

    Friendly Staff and Great Sushi, But Serious Odor Issue We've visited this restaurant twice now and want to start by saying the sushi chef and staff, especially the newer waiter, were incredibly friendly and welcoming. The sushi and tempura are fresh and well-prepared—definitely some of the best in the area. That said, we experienced a very strong and unpleasant odor both times we visited. On our first visit, we hoped it was just a one-off issue. However, when we returned the next day, the smell was even more intense and hard to ignore. It made the dining experience uncomfortable and may discourage others as well. Additionally, we noticed some of the hanging lamps—designed to be part of the ambiance—were torn and looked neglected. It stood out in an otherwise upscale setting and gave the impression that upkeep may be falling behind. We’re sharing this as constructive feedback because we truly want to see this restaurant succeed. With a little attention to maintenance and resolving the odor issue, this place could be a five-star experience. We’d love to return if those concerns are addressed.

    We have been looking for a new sushi place closer to us for a few months, we finally decided to try Nori out, we were not disappointed. Great cocktails, rolls, sashimi and nigiri. Very fresh, and great tasting. We will be going back for sure.
