They effortlessly combine, spread and slice the ingredients into a presentation with the same understanding and mental focus an artist has while drawing, painting or sculpting.


The Sushi artists at NORI are both transfixed and upbeat in their purpose, while handing off creation after creation with the knowledge that the appreciation of each presentation is temporary. They must know the vast majority of their work will never receive accolades, show up on a magazine's cover, or be appreciation by a dedicated mass media audience.

Lunch, take-out and delivery options are okay in the normal course of a day, but call ahead to reserve your table for dinner. This place is popular and fills quickly during dinner/evening hours.

    Music is only part of a restaurant's ambience and atmosphere... When you walk into a restaurant it should smell good, really good. The flavorful scent that greets you as you walk through the door at a location like NORI immediately tugs at the taste-buds while pleasantly mixing with the sounds of a lobby water fountain and a mood setting world music beat. Although music can overpower or distract from many culinary experiences, when used correctly any place can become an oasis from the bustling world outside, and build anticipation for hungry customers waiting in the lobby.
