    Korean Chicken Wings
    Amanda C.

    I feel like I've had some trouble finding really good Korean spots in Middle Tennessee, but boy did I find a good one! I heard about MoriMori because I saw a post on social media, and had wanted to check it out for a while now. We ordered the Korean chicken wings and bulgogi beef. The Korean wings were some of the best I've ever had. Truly. They were perfectly crispy, huge, and all of the sauce they put on top was incredible. They give you such a big portion as well! The bulgogi beef also was incredibly tasty and just the way I like it. What makes this dish different is that they put onions, carrots, and mushrooms in the mixture as well which really added flavor. The portions were so big we even had leftovers for the next day! The employees were also very nice and gracious, and the restaurant itself is very spacious and clean with plenty of parking! If you want good Korean food at an affordable price, definitely go here! We will definitely be back.

    Mori mori is a good little spot. I visited on a Friday night around 7pm and the place was poppin! I enjoyed a strawberry boba tea and spicy shrimp udon noodles (weird mix, I know). My boyfriend and I also shared a hot gabby and hot knight. All you really need to know is to get the pork gyoza because they're amazing!! As for the food... At least try the pork gyoza and you can call it a successful trip! These dumplings are some of the greatest I've ever had. So good we cleaned the plate before even thinking to snap a picture. The hot knight was also fantastic, lots of flavor and great texture!! I wouldn't have the hot gabby again. Half of it came fried and half did not, the texture was odd, there wasn't much flavor, and overall we just weren't impressed. My udon noodles were good but definitely not spicy and unfortunately they didn't have many options to kick up the heat. Our server brought me a spicy seasoning mix but there was no chili oil or spicy sauce, so that was a bummer. Service was good but they seemed short staffed. There was one younger gentleman basically running the show for the front of house, and he was absolutely crushing it, but there definitely needed to be at least one more person to help from what we observed. Atmosphere is good, casual. A little crowded when there's a full house, but still a nice every day stop. Prices are really good for Nashville! Overall, this a good casual sit down place.

    The food and the service were excellent! We had the California roll, the Sean special roll and crab Rangoon.

    Food is always amazing!

    Food is always amazing. Staff and service is great. We have been going for years and it has been consistent.

    Best food I've had in Tennessee, bar none. Service was amazing, lighting is perfect, and the food is actually insane.

    We went here for weekend lunch and it was Very Good. The food was tasty and presented well. The entrees that we got were both HUGE portions. Alot of food and moderately priced. They had a Boba Bar as soon as you enter. We were greeted and given a table quickly. The service was good and the staff were friendly. I will say that they have a big menu with alot of choices. Sushi, Entrees, Rice and Sushi bowls along with plenty of appetizers. You can also view the chef's prepare the fresh made to order Sushi. There is plenty of free parking. They also have Sake, Beers and Wine. It's a nice spot if you're in Mt. Juliet.

    Let me first say I have tried MANY sushi restaurants in Wilson and Sumner Counties since moving here from the DC area, all fell flat. This place hit the spot. Great service, nice atmosphere and tasty sushi. As a matter of fact, I went for lunch on Valentine's Day and they had a nice romantic playlist on for those that may come on dates, thoughtful. I had the Tempura Cali Roll and New York roll, I didn't want to try anything to crazy as my past experiences in other restaurants had been so poor with nasty raw sushi. These rolls were delicious! My server was incredibly attentive and kind. The price was phenomenal and I will be back. I highly recommend it.

    Ok so I wasn't sure if I've been there before but then I realized I had come here before, ha! Not sure why I didn't review then. This experience was ok. Restaurant was not that busy and service was ok. Nothing bad just nothing special. The menu has a lot of options so you will definitely find something you'll like. They have beer, wine, mixed drinks, sake and the fountain drinks. The restaurant is divided by two room and the decorations are simple but work. I will have to say the chairs are NOT comfortable at all, they are very hard and no cushion so to spend 30 mins to an hour+ on them could give you some hump pain. Also, the bar top table is not leveled so be careful if you're eating a soup (what I had) you have a high risk of spilling it. Not very comfortable eating eight. The sushi bar staff was very friendly and attentive. They have TVs and today (Sunday) they were tuned on football games. Bathroom, only 2 stalls and 1 small sink and could use a bit of tidying up/cleaning. I ordered the Japanese Ramen (spicy) and the Avocado Ball. Both very good. The ramen was a miso based broth with the right noodles, I enjoyed it. It wasn't too spicy but it definitely had its kick. The Avocado Ball was good but I feel the tuna meat was missing some flavor. It's not spicy even though it's "spicy tuna". I did enjoyed it but I asked for ginger (doesn't come with it) and used soy sauce. It's a good size so I would definitely consider it as a "roll" or a shareable appetizer. It's messy so I ate it with a fork. Overall, I'll recommend and will come back for a meal every once in a while when I'm around the area.

    A few hits and misses here. And my expectations were lower for being a sushi place in the burbs to begin, but the high rating gave me hope! First off...rushing someone's meal is never ok and especially with the cost to eat out. Biggest issue here was service timing. You make more money when you encourage customers to order more not RUSH them with a bill or with trying to take their plate before they are finished eating. Please educate your wait staff on this to help you and them make more money. I also had to flag another server down to get me basic items in order to eat my meal bc the server camped out in a side room. Cuts of sashimi were great in size, though the salmon was still a little frozen. Avocado bomb looked great but in the process the spicy tuna some how ended up getting cooked, and cooked where it was a bit strange in comparison to having same thing at other places. The specialty roll options are heavily weighted with a California roll base which maybe the area has more appeal to that. Overall not bad but won't be a regular for me.

    hidden gem in mt juliet. stopped in last min on a friday night. was pretty full but got seated in a couple mins!! waiter was a cool mixed dude who was serving, bringing out food, sitting people and running the tea section. impressive. but my gf and i split an order of pork gyoza, the hot night roll and some boba teas. ALL was delicious. for entrees i got the chicken katsudon with fried rice. scrumptious and a MASSIVE portion. the gf shrimp udon noodles. great flavor in the one bite she gave me lol we also ordered the hot gabby roll cause we were munching but didn't enjoy that roll as much. all and all was really good and looking forward to going back

    Tempura veggies.

    New ownership? New chef? New vibe? My last review for the Mori Mori wasn't the best and as a reminder, we ordered it to go and during the middle of the pandemic. The last two times we have eaten here, once inside and one to-go order, have both been stellar. The food quality is much better and the staff here is awesome. Shout out to Justin! He was our server last time we ate here and he was great, very attentive and fast! We've literally ordered too many rolls to name, so I will just say get the Avocado Bomb and the Angry Lobster roll if you're dining in. I'm not sure how well these food items will travel. If you're ordering to for pickup; stay with the classic rolls. A few highlights for me are the Crunch Mania roll and the Caterpillar roll. Maybe add a some crispy calamari to that order?! Roll on, Mount Juliet!

    This is one of the best sushi places around Middle TN!! Everything I've had on their menu is delicious. My husband and I love coming here for date nights and splitting the sushi boat A. It is the perfect amount for both of us! They also have a really good happy hour. It's currently 3pm - 6pm Monday - Friday. $6 cocktails!!! There is tons of parking, the restaurant is always clean, and the staff is always so nice!! Things are also pretty reasonably priced. They also have lunch specials. I would definitely recommend coming here. It's also nice that it is a local restaurant because Mount Juliet is mostly filled with chain restaurants.

    The roll I had didn't have much flavor but it definitely didn't taste bad! The kimchi ramen was pretty good. The servers were attentive and did well with checking on us. It was nice to finish off the meal with some Boba that's located inside!

    Our hotel in Nashville was directly across the street from Shabu-Shabu, which made it an incredibly…read moreconvenient option within walking distance of several hotels in the area. Our group ordered the Hotpot and BBQ combination for $34.99 per person. It was absolutely worth the price. There were endless combinations of proteins, vegetables, starches, sauces, and condiments, allowing everyone to customize their meal exactly how they wanted. We arrived starving and left completely satisfied. The atmosphere was laid back, the service was quick, and the overall experience was fun and interactive. I would definitely go again.

    My niece invited me and her mom to join her for dinner at Shabu-Shabu. We arrived and it was about…read morea 25-35 minute wait. Also plan to pay for street parking. Once our table was ready, we were seated at the door with a 1/2 table but it worked since it was just three of us. If I returned I'd want to do a full table as it was difficult to cook and talk to each other at a half table. There are tons of raw meat, veggie, seafood, noodles, rice options to grill or add to your hot pot. Along with sushi and desserts. Everything I had was good except the sushi which was bland and tasted like it sat out for hours. I also wish it wasn't buffet style with so many hands touching everything. Plus the plates were stored beneath the food and were hard to reach. I stood most of the time to cook because of the table set up. I'm not sure how others did it but I had to go get clean plates to place my food on after cooking because I refused to put cooked food on a plate with formerly raw meat. There also needs to be clean bowls available for finished hot pot food. I had to use the ramen bowl I had from the conveyor belt. Speaking of the conveyor belt, I'm confused about its point an only one person at our table could reach it. Things were not labeled and the majority were available on the buffet. My niece enjoyed herself so that's what really mattered. However, she's the one that gave it 3 stars so not the best or her favorite but also not bad. I will say (and I never mentioned this to my niece because I didn't want to ruin the evening) that I used the restroom and while washing my hands saw one of the workers use the restroom and never wash her hands! Thankfully for us were were done getting food but that's unacceptable. And yes I followed her out and know she was in fact a worker!
