We tried the UK Fish&Chips, 911, and Island Fever - all of which were delicious. Service was fast and friendly and our drinks... (water and tea) remained full throughout our lunch without having to ask. Great experience. Read more

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 gaveher 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 sureyou book in advance. It?s busy here for obvious reasons. Will come back. Read more

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 youare a mango fan. So delicious! Read more

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! Read more

The service was fine. It was quite busy. We found the sushi quite mediocre, and very expensive as well. Maybe it is just what we... ordered? The roll we got was very yummy: super saucy if you?re into that. We actually really did not like the uni, and would notrecommend. Read more

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 menuand decided to order items that featured these. We were blown away by how amazing everything tasted and made sure to visit thisrestaurant a second time to sample now of their food. The prices are reasonable considering what you're getting and Thepresentation for the dishes was top notch. I highly recommend anyone to visit this restaurant. I took so many pictures of theirfood and would go back in a heartbeat. Everything was fresh and delicious. Read more
