Nami Nori New York Reviews from The Last Year
Came in for a solo dinner while I was in town for work.
Made a reservation in advance because I heard they can fill up pretty quickly, but got there an early and they were still able to seat me. Feel like it's the perfect place to eat alone because most of the seating is along the sushi bar. To start off I ordered the matcharita and spicy tuna crispy rice chips and dip. The drink was delicious and refreshing, loved the matcha and green apple combination. The crispy rice chips paired with the spicy tuna truly might be the perfect bite. I ordered the signature set after that which comes with 5 temaki. My favorite was the x.o scallop because on top of being the most beautiful bite of sushi, the fish tasted so incredible fresh. The tuna, salmon, and coconut shrimp were also delicious, but the cucumber black sesame was not my thing at all. All in all, service was quick and efficient and the food was great. Very high quality ingredients and imaginative pairings. Will be back on my next trip!

One of my very favorite restaurants in Manhattan that consistently provides a fabulous experience. Incredible food and a nice, relaxing atmosphere. Well managed and I greatly appreciate the small, personal touches (champagne on special occasions, etc).
This has been on my list for quite some time so I was so
This has been on my list for quite some time so I was so happy to finally try it out. Upon arrival, the vibe is what caught my attention at first. I adored the minimalist neutral wood decor of this place-- it felt very classy and refined. This place was also packed, which is obviously a good sign! Onto the food! For a starter, we ordered the Spicy Tuna Dip. Now this was delicious. The tuna was so fresh and melt in your mouth. This paired so well with the crunchy and airy crispy rice chips. For our entrees, I got the Signature Set, which I think is a must try from the temaki counter. Others in my party got the Classic and make your own, which are good options too, but they have already been here so they were wanting to mix it up. The Signature Set included five curated temakis placed in order of consumption as recommended by the chef. You have to remove the seaweed from plastic wrapping, which was a fun group activity accompanied with struggles and triumph. But I loved this concept because it just ensures the freshness of the food so the seaweed does not get soggy from the other contents of the temaki. The first was a tuna poke. It had similar contents to the spicy tuna dip, so I already knew this was going to be delicious and fresh. This was followed by the x.o. scallop, which was also such high quality in terms of freshness, and the splash of citrus really tied everything together. The coconut shrimp was the star of the show, which makes sense because it was in the middle! This was perfectly breaded and bursting with yummy flavors. The last of the umami portion was the salmon serrano, which was just another classic in terms of the perfect harmony of more mild flavors. Lastly, there was a dessert temaki, the cucumber black sesame, which featured an indulgent plum sauce atop a fresh crispy cucumber. This was a perfect refreshing, but not to sweet end to the meal. And the five temakis was the perfect portion size. Overall, I really do recommend checking this place out! You can tell the chefs really care about the customers getting a quality food and dining experience, so I will definitely be returning to try more of the menu items!
I went here for my birthday and I really loved it.
There's kinda limited seating but it was so amazing and the hand rolls made my mouth water as I was waiting for them to be made. The service is great asking you what you want to order and if you wanted to order more after your last hand roll and on top of the water for the whole time. The ambience is really cute and aesthetic and even the plates and ceramics were all nice.
Reservations for a table outside on top of a sewer grate
Reservations for a table outside on top of a sewer grate were not what we expected... would have much preferred to be inside! The appetizers were a great start- the tempura and chips/yogurt dip. The tamaki was hard to eat but we figured it out. I thought it was fun and experiential but my husband was annoyed. We were sitting next to a couple that had an incredibly frustrating time and I kept expecting him to ask me to grab his food and help him The flavors were hit or miss for us- some of them were amazing. The ratio of the rice to the fish sometimes seemed off- too much fish and no soy or wasabi bothered my husband. I wouldn't return but am glad we tried it.
Ordered the signature Temaki set and it was finger-licking
Ordered the signature Temaki set and it was finger-licking good. The signature temaki set consists of: tuna poke, scallop, coconut shrimp, salmon serrano, and cucumber black sesame. Everything was great from service to food. Notes to self: must make a reservation next time or else seated outside with no shades.
If I were to do it again, I would get five of the coconut
If I were to do it again, I would get five of the coconut shrimp rolls. That's the middle one in my picture. That was the best tasting piece of sushi of the entire meal. I also loved the far left. Five rolls for $32. I think that's a little expensive, but the quality of the food was really good. It was a unique experience to unwrap the seaweed from the plastic, and it was fun to figure out as a team. All the ingredients are fresh and I am full but not Bloated. We'd very kind service. I felt we were taken care of and seated quickly. We ate outside and it's very nice in those booths.
I've been wanting to try this place since last year, and I
I've been wanting to try this place since last year, and I finally made it today. First of all, this place is always packed, for online reservation, I suggest at least a day prior. My friend was able to get an outdoor sitting on the same day, but because of the rain or for any unknown reason, a party did not show up for 15mins, so we got an indoor bar seats. I love the idea of hand roll, but this is more an open face sushi than the traditional hand roll (those who know would know). The menu is fairly simple, so I got the signature and uni. I wasn't trying to be picky by giving away my coconut shrimp to my friend, but I love uni, so I pick the $16 uni roll, worth it! All the seafood is fresh, no fishy smell and they all melted in my mouth, but I think the rice overpowered the sashimi. Half of the time, I can only taste the sauce in the rice but not the topping. Everyone is super friendly, despite how busy the business is. The waiter was sweet and helpful, the host is nice, she explained to us why she's cooking stones!! (I thought it's some kind of fancy meal, but it's to keep people waiting outside warm). Our chef told us that the rice were made in the back, and send to the front at once. In other words, all the rice is the same quality and quantity. That explains if the scallops have no strong flavor, it's hard to taste the scallops but the savory rice. As the uni, it has pungent flavors, therefore, the rice is not overpowering. Overall, a fun, cozy, social place to try!
Each hand roll was super flavorful and well-balanced.
The wasabi in the middle (optional) adds the perfect kick. 5 rolls were surprisingly filling. The rolls are made one at a time, so definitely come here with some patience and be prepared to wait a while between bites. Presentation is adorable! I also enjoyed sitting at the bar and watching the chef as he was preparing the temaki. Loved the organic, woody decor. Felt very modern, stylish, and homey.

Our friends and I spent "friendsgiving" here and we had an amazing time! It has always been on my list to visit in NYC and it did not disappoint! Reservation was fairly easy to secure as there are multiple locations to choose from. The ambiance, service and the quality of the food were all superb. I would definitely recommend this for a fun, no fuss dinner experience
Well Executed Japanese Food
Went to the Williamsburg location. Excellent handrolls. Some really special flavour combinations. A bit noisy and drink selection a bit limited. But overall excellent food at good value for what it is.
Unique dining experience
Very unique place - mostly sushi but all shaped like tacos. I recommend ordering a set that comes with 5 pieces that are brought out as they’re ready. I also enjoyed the churros for dessert. Definitely a young vibe, most seating is at a counter top next to other parties. Really cute place, and the entire menu is gluten free too!
Really Bad Welcoming
One of the city's popular temaki bars, Nami Nori offers open-style sushi hand rolls. The extensive sake menu was also one of the reasons we chose this place. Classic Set ($28) with 5 different options and we also ordered x.o. Scallop ($9) and Toro Scallion ($12) from Signature Menu. I am not a sushi master, but I’ve enough knowledge to evaluate it according to my own experience. None of the products were at a level that would convince me to come back here. Plum Sake ($12-umeshu) and Tensei ($15) that we tried as accompaniments were very pleasing Sakes, we recommend you to try them if you come across them. The other bad point was that the receptionist tried to kick us out when we asked if there was a table. She stated that the place was closed and they couldn't help. While we were waiting in front of the door, we saw by chance that another customer was accepted and we learned that the kitchen was open with the info of another employee. Maybe not about food but It was the worst place I've seen in NY regarding customer relations. . . . #kaimbros
Just so so
I went to Nami Nori for lunch with my family. We made reservation at 12:00, its opening time. But the service is not good. There was no friendly welcome, and the waiter was inattentive at our table. The food is just so so. I feel uncomfortable to unwrap the plastic paper covering black seaweed. I will not return to Nami Nori.
Misleading Claims and Disregard for Celiac Customers at Nami Nori Williamsburg
I had an incredibly disappointing and concerning experience at Nami Nori Williamsburg, a restaurant that claims to be dedicated to serving gluten and celiac-friendly food. I don’t usually write reviews, but the blatant disregard for my health and safety have left me no choice. Upon arriving, I made sure to inform the waitress about my Celiac disease. I was assured that Nami Nori’s entire food menu was in fact all gluten free and the only gluten they served was in the form of beer, but gluten-free beer options were also available. So I proceeded to order a gluten-free beer and when it arrived I made sure to check the label, just to be sure. I didn’t see any signs being gluten-free… After a few minutes, the manager later approached me and admitted that the beer was, in fact, not gluten-free and would bring the actual gluten-free beer in just a moment. If I hadn’t checked the label, I surely wouldn’t starting drinking it! Later the server approached me and carelessly claimed this was an "honest mistake.” Despite her initial apology, the waitress proceeded to avoid me for the rest of the evening. She wouldn’t talk to me but had no issue acknowledging the rest of my party. It is deeply disheartening to witness such unprofessional behaviour, especially when dealing with a health issue as critical as Celiac disease. As someone with Celiac disease, I rely on restaurants that genuinely prioritize the safety and well-being of their customers. Nami Nori's false claims and the subsequent mishandling of my dietary needs not only put my health at risk but also undermine the credibility of their supposed dedication to gluten-free dining. I urge those with Celiac disease or gluten sensitivities to exercise extreme caution when considering dining at Nami Nori Williamsburg. Their disregard for the health and safety of their customers is a grave concern that should not be taken lightly. In summary, my experience at Nami Nori Williamsburg was deeply disappointing and troubling, marked by misleading claims, a lack of understanding, and a dismissive attitude towards customers with dietary restrictions.
Fresh and light meal
We booked a last minute lunch reservation after having a craving for sushi during our trip. It was our first time having sushi in this style. I had the tuna poke, spicy tuna, yellowtail, spicy lobster, and spicy crab dynamite along with the matcharita drink. This was in our top 3 meals during the trip. Everything tasted fresh. Try this place at least once and find out for yourself.
Unconvincing sushi variety in loud restaurant
40.73020 -74.00309 This Michelin Bibi Gourmand restaurant combines a Japanese restaurant with a Japanese Pachinko arcade with dance music blaring from speakers. The acoustics are terrible in this modern and minimalist interior. People scream at each other for lack of soundproofing. Not the familiar quiet environment in Japanese restaurants. So not a place for a romantic dinner. Maybe outside on the sidewalk is better. In June 2023, we ordered the signature set ($32) from the temaki counter in a packed Friday night restaurant. I do not remember seeing temaki or hand rolls in Japan. Nami Nori is a fusion kitchen with many Asian influences, not just Japanese. It is similar to sushi, only sushi is rolled. We ordered the tuna poke with crispy shallots, x.o. scallop with tobiko & lemon, coconut shrimp with green curry, lime & cilantro, serrano salmon with ginger, myoga & tosazu and cucumber black sesame, shiso & plum. The hitachino yuzu lager 12 was not available and neither was an alternative. The five temaki ordered tasted good. Good use of wasabi. But was it special? We didn’t think so. Next time, go back to the familiar sushi train without bad soundproofing and dance music and let guests focus on what is important: the food combined with service and environment. Not recommended.
Fantastic Fish!
We loved the sushi “taco” concept and the crispy rice. Lots of fresh fish to choose from! A great vibe! Loved all of the counter seating!
Tasty tataki, fresh fish
Menu isn’t big, but there are options for everyone. I advise you to choose one of tataki sets to try different types of tataki. There is big vine and sake card, also you can find signature cocktails. Some tables are located around Chef’s station - so you can see how the process is going. Fast service, appetizers are ready in couple of minutes. Staff is polite. Free wi-fi for guests. I advise you to book table in advance - this restaurant isn’t big, but very popular.
Preset Tipping Amount by the server.
Good handroll, the sushi rice is still warm while the nori is crispy. Overall, good food and ambience. I would give 5 stars if the server did not preset the tipping amount.

Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.

When it says working on bid, it means there are people looking to fill it.
