Amazing meal! The Signature set was delicious, and the toro scallion, miso cod, and dynamite roll were all excellent too. Service was attentive and helpful. A huge plus is the 100% gluten-free menu, such a relief to order without worry. Mochi churros for dessert were the perfect finish. Highly recommend!
Great spot for hand rolls! The hand rolls were fresh and delicious, the fried chicken was crispy, juicy, and the sauce was absolutely amazing~ definitely one of the highlights of the meal. The service was friendly and attentive as well. Overall a great experience!
My husband surprised me and planned a lovely evening for us which included dinner on Saturday at Nami Nori in the Brooklyn location. We had the most amazing experience. In fact, this will be the longest review I ever wrote, but very well deserved. The manger, Noelle, was very personable and more than accommodating. My husband let him know we were on a time restraint and he went above and beyond along with Bianca, the hostess. We were made to feel like the most important people in th restaurant. Elliot and Giovanni were making th sushi that evening and every single piece was a different experience. Nothing short of amazing. You could feel the love and care that they put into every bite. The ambiance was great and we will definitely be going back! Thank you all!!!! Well done!.
We ordered the Signature Set, which was really good overall. My favorites were the coconut shrimp and the salmon sarano—both packed with flavor and beautifully done. For appetizers, we added the tuna crudo, which was incredibly fresh and delicious—definitely one of my top bites of the night. The tuna dip was also excellent (clearly, we’re big tuna fans 😄). The only miss for us was the salad, which had a flavor profile that wasn’t quite our taste. That said, the drinks were great and the service was attentive and friendly. Overall, a great experience and a solid spot for creative hand rolls and fresh fish. Would absolutely come back.
What a great experience, we say at the sushi bar and got served. It was soooo delicious. I don’t have one complaint, my server was a sweet heart. I didn’t get his name unfortunately but he was Caucasian had glasses with a goatee. To start we got the caviar special and the tuna dip. As the main we got the signature set, spicy lobster, 2 winter specials, everything salmon, and crunchy scallops. To end it with a delicious mochi churros and sesame chocolate chip cookie. Everything was wow, will definitely come back!
