Nice upscale vegan Japanese

I got the ramen, which was good but I wasn't head over heels for it. Definitely worth a revisit though cause I'll have to try the sushi and other options next time.

A Delightful Date Night with the Best Sushi!

Nori Sushi is hands down the best spot for sushi and the perfect date night! The presentation is always so creative and beautifully done—it feels like an experience, not just a meal. Every time we visit, I’m surprised and delighted by the unique flavors and stunning dishes they bring to the table.

If you’re looking for a place that’s both elegant and exciting, Nori Sushi never disappoints. Highly recommend for a memorable night out!

Pros: Beautiful, creative presentation, Perfect for date nights, Consistently surprising and delicious dishes

Noodles were a good texture

We had the Ramen Noodles 🍜 and Dragon Sushi 🍣 The wife loved the Sushi 🍣 😋 liked the Ramen a lot. On the drive back to the house, she noticed that she had to drink a lot of water and thought they may have used a lot of MSG. I didn't get that feeling, myself.
Anastasio suggested we try one type of the Sushi, but we had already thought we'd get the Dragon. Next time I will go with the waitress Suggestions.

Go Here Now!

An amazing experience with both amazing alc and non-alc cocktails in addition to the outstanding vegan Japanese food. We sat at the bar and received great recos and guidance from the mixologists. The hardest part was not ordering everything off the menu.

Amazing

First time at Nori. What a joy to have so many vegan/plant-based options. Everything was beautifully presented and tasted wonderful. They have a new zero proof cocktail selection. I enjoyed a hibiscus berry mule. Dessert finished us out with a fishy brownie with ice cream and strawberries. Can’t wait to come back.

Exquisite

This place is incredible! I had a cocktail, the nigiri sampler and a spider roll and it was all delicious. One little gripe is that the texture of the Just Egg in the tamago nigiri was off and kind of mealy. I’ll definitely go out of my way to come back here next time I’m in Austin.

Perfect for a date night

I went with my partner to celebrate our aniversary. During the night, Nori feels like an intimate and warm place. We had the Creamy Crunchy and the California. Food was great as well as the dessert and sake. I would say is a little bit expensive, but worth it.

Nice

I was so excited to find a vegan sushi restaurant in Austin. Nori has a plethora of options to satisfy everyone’s taste buds. We started with Chick’n Kaarage and it was my very good and full of flavor. The volcano sushi was good, but not my favorite. The Katsu Curry Dish was a bit too thick for me, but my husband loved it and he’s not a vegan. The Lion Mane Steak was a good and hearty dish; however, I didn’t care too much for the mashed potatoes, but the lion’s mane steak was my favorite! The steak was juicy, bursting with flavor and the texture was perfect! We had dinner here on a busy night, so I understand that there’s a possibility that things will not run smoothly, but the service here has room for improvement.

Delicious plant based sushi

Really enjoyed the sunflower roll. Spicy toona was tasty but not mind blowing. Thought the service was a bit u friendly but maybe that was just the timing I was there. Would def come back again.

✨ Absolutely Fantastic ✨

Wow. This vegan restaurant really stood out to me! It's super rare to find really good vegan sushi in my area. The food was phenomenal! It had a semi fine dining flare which is also difficult to find. I was delighted that it had so many appealing offerings. We ordered the shiitake gyozas, volcano, texan, and spider. The volcano stood out and the gyozas were memorable. I enjoyed my meal so much that I didn't even think about taking photos. On top of all that our server, Forest, was the bomb and such a delight.

Amazing Sushi and Great service!

I had the Spicy Toona and Sunflower roll and it was a flavor explosion! Absolutely phenomenal dinner. Definitely come during happy hour for some reduced price rolls. But for a sushi place it’s pretty affordable.

Staff was great and happy to offer recommendations to first time diners like myself! If you miss high quality sushi, this is the place for you!

Pros: Food, Kind and helpful staff, Beautiful dining room

Hoping I get back to Austin some time soon!

The food and service were amazing 🤩. I ordered two rolls for lunch with miso soup and side salad and it was all so tasty. I'm just sad I cannot come here often to try their katsu, bentos, etc. Don't miss it if you stop by Austin!

Pros: Food!!, Service , Decor was pretty nice too

Great taste and presentation

We got the dragon roll, the spicy tuna roll, the tuna nigiri, and the catsu chicken nigiri. Everything was delicious. The tuna nigiri was a tuna product I hadn't tried, so that was neat, although I probably wouldn't eat it regularly. The other ones were really good.

Favorite Sushi Spot

Always a must go when in Austin! Everything I’ve tried is delicious especially the spicy toona, volcano and manhattan rolls. Service is great as well!
