  • replying to u/throwawayfromhk: Would you say Nami Nori could be a good spot for a birthday dinner with a significant other? We both love Japanese food and have a budget around $100 per head!

    Nami Nori is a well rounded restaurant for me, good food, good service, good prices.

  • replying to u/sweatery_weathery: Wow, this place looks great. So hard to find a Japanese place with solid vegan options. This is a high contender, and I actually want to visit it on my own even if we don’t end up here.

    Yes! It’s a favorite (i love sitting at the counter, they pace out the temaki rolls one by one and you’re in front of the chef) but the table seats are good too). Definitely recommend going at some point — drinks are great and the mochi churros are a must!!

  • This is always my forever suggestion because I truly do love the restaurant and it being entirely GF is a bonus but nami nori. It’s a hand roll place but everything is gluten free. My friends never notice. Hot tip the black sesame chocolate chip cookies they have as dessert come warm and they’re delicious. 😍

  • We love the spicy tuna dip/hand rolls at Nami Nori - out of all of the sushi places we've tried in the city, theirs is the best balance of spicy + sweet + mayo-ey but not too mayo-ey + savory

    I did it and I wasn't impressed. You get what you pay for, and I hate to say it but it's more on the cheaper side than other similar places.

  • The hand rolls were pretty tasty and fresh, but overall we found this place overrated and expensive for what it was.

  • Nami Nori is also a cool spot for handrolls and they have multiple locations. (Kazunori is also good but Nami Nori takes it up a notch).
