Nori - Phoenix

We went for a quick lunch on Wednesday afternoon, this restaurant is located in the corner of high street. The ambience is intimate and upscale, it is a great place for date night or just a romantic dinner. However we sat outside for lunch, their lunch menu is pretty great but the prices are on the higher end. I went with sushi combo and it came with miso soup, salad, sushi, sashimi and more. Everything tasted fantastic, fresh and really refreshing. The fried dumpling was a little salty for me, the sushi was good but not the best. Overall a good place and had a good lunch. Service was quick and the server was very sweet.

I have been here twice for lunch and plan to return again. I will say this last time the service was slow but the server said it was his first week. My first visit here, the service was super quick. I enjoyed the beef lunch special and the chicken teriyaki too but the beef was my favorite, I highly recommend. The chicken was not cut up thinly enough so it felt tough and dry. The miso soup was perfect and the cucumber sunomono was authentic. The salad dressing was also something I was impressed with as it was light and not overpowering. I have not tried the sushi yet but intend to next time. I would highly recommend to anyone who likes Japanese food.

Convenient, intimate, solid. Especially in an area with so much good sushi, I would not say I was blown away by the food. A friend and I split a spicy yellowtail roll, a rainbow roll, and an entree. Each unique bite of the rainbow roll was tremendous, but the other two dishes weren't as exciting, especially considering their prices. The orders' relative mediocrity provided an opportunity to ask myself why I still enjoyed this experience so much. In addition to amazing company ; they were open until 11 that night much later than most restaurants of this caliber. When we got there, the friendly host sat us immediately and quickly had a server take our orders. The dishes came out one at a time, so right as we were finishing one, the next part of the meal arrived at the table. The restaurant itself is beautiful. Tucked in the corner of what I assume is a pretty busy area, it has a clean and modern atmosphere that allows you to relax and enjoy a meal among the busy Phoenician outlets.

After a full year of raving about this place and their happy hour to everyone I know, it has officially come back to haunt me. I 've come here specially for happy hour numerous times and today finally got my mom to join me after making her listen to me talk about how good it is. We sit down at 3:30 on a Monday, and start ordering off happy hour, for the server to tell us they discontinued happy hour three days ago. Funny enough, they had a sign advertising happy hour standing right outside of their door? So either we were lied to or literally no one there knows what 's going on. We also asked for recommendations and were told uh I don 't know because they don 't give us an employee discount on food! ... The service was never the focal point, but the past 4 times I have been here now the terrible service is the main thing I 'm left remembering. Getting rid of happy hour (or lying about it? is a bad call regardless. Sad to say I won 't be returning.

Came here for the first time and I really enjoyed it! We had a company dinner here and it was great. Our waitress Kathryn was wonderful and very accommodating with our large group. The food was delicious and came out very fast! This place has happy hour weekdays before 6pm which is a huge plus and makes me want to come back. My coworkers and I were happy with the food, service, cocktails, and ambiance.
