One of the best Japanese restaurants outside of Japan out there! The sushi’s were delicious with beautiful plating! Very creative and original, yet super tasty food! The service was also excellent, super friendly and helpful staff, offering us great recommendations since it was our first time visiting the area! We didn’t get to sit at the bar, but we saw the chef interacting a lot with the customers and he was super welcoming and we loved his energy! The vibe in the restaurant is definitely pleasant, having a chill casual environment while enjoying delicious fine Japanese sushi and seafood! If you are in Nanaimo, definitely give this place a try!
We did the road trip across Canada from Ottawa, finally made it to Victoria. Read the reviews thought we’d check it out. We love sushi and have had a lot over the years. HANDS DOWN, best sushi I have ever had. We came here 3 nights in a row and didn’t bother trying other places for dinner. I highly recommend ordering their flaming viper. It’s phenomenal. If we ever go back to Victoria, 100% going back. Will be suggesting this place to everyone.
Best Japanese restaurant ever had! We live in Victoria and came all the way to nanaimo for Nori. Indeed not disappointed. 100% recommend! Staffs are super friendly and chefs are very knowledgeable. A very nice atmosphere there and we loved it!
Food was excellent. Service was great. They recommended us some rolls and it was great. A bit pricy but it was quality sushi from beginning to end. Some rolls tasted normal but that was just personal preference. It was my daughters bday and they gave her a free slice of yummy matcha cheese cake and sang her a song. Bill came out to be $201 but worth it in my opinion. Make sure you book in advance. It’s busy here for obvious reasons. Will come back.
Lives up to its name! The sushi did not disappoint. Considerable size of fish in each sushi roll and sashimi. The number of choices are amazing. We tried the so many different sushi and they were all amazing. Highly recommend. Get the mango roll if you are a mango fan. So delicious!
I have seen so many Instagram posts about this place and we decided to try it when we were in the area. We were lucky enough to get there as soon as they opened for dinner service to get a table. I love that they have real crab and wild salmon on the menu and decided to order items that featured these. We were blown away by how amazing everything tasted and made sure to visit this restaurant a second time to sample now of their food.
The prices are reasonable considering what you're getting and The presentation for the dishes was top notch. I highly recommend anyone to visit this restaurant. I took so many pictures of their food and would go back in a heartbeat. Everything was fresh and delicious.
Best Japanese I've ever had. Delicious fresh food, knowledgeable server, passionate chef, beautiful presentation.
The only way I could possibly think of improving my experience is with the addition of Japanese bidet toilets, but I understand that many people wouldn't agree with me!
