    NoRa Asian Fusion is a growing chain of fast casual sushi and Asian food restaurants. They offer limited sushi, appetizers, America Chinese bowls, Other Asian bowls, ramen, and a variety of Asian entrees and soft beverages. At the moment they have around a dozen locations in the valley and a couple locations in Texas. I tried the brand new North Phoenix location on Bell Rd. We tried the nigiri combo (tuna & salmon), a tuna lover roll (spicy roll topped with tuna) chicken egg rolls, and chicken dumplings. What they did best was the sushi. The tuna and salmon were both clean and fresh tasting. It was also nice that the rice didn't fall apart at all. We both didn't care for the egg rolls and the dumplings were fried nice but were just ok. Parking is easy because they share the lot with New Asian Kitchen, a (very good) doughnut place, a taco bell, Curry and Wraps, Caribbean Desert Island Eatery and a few other places. It's fast casual and not fancy but the food is low priced, quick, and fresh.

    NoRa Asian Fresh has set the bar astronomically high for Arizona Sushi. We came in with 6 people and ordered 8 rolls, chicken dumplings, chicken egg roll, and shrimp chow mein. We tried the Tuna lover, Crunch roll, Crazy Salmon, Shrimp tempura, tuna and salmon nigiri. We also had soda from the very clean machine. There was one guy behind the counter and he put his heart and soul into our food. Our fried appetizers were hot and crispy and our sushi was fresh and made in front of us. I 100/10 recommend this place for your next sushi craving!!! they also have ramen, chow meins, and fried rice

    Wish they had a spicy choice of hot sauce but other than that it was great. I got the spicy ramen and the dumplings, which were 10/10.

Definitely a vibe for anime lovers! Food-wise, we started with the gyoza and they were delicious. Perfectly cooked and even better dipped in the ponzu sauce! We also tried the sushi flight, which was a great way to sample a few different flavors. Overall, I really enjoyed it, although the eel was probably my least favorite of the flight just personal preference. The crispy tuna rice was easily the star of the meal! Crispy, flavorful, and the textures worked so well together. I would 100% order that again. The ramen, however, was just okay for me. It wasn't bad or inedible, but the broth was lacking that rich, deep flavor I look for in a good bowl of ramen. A little more depth and seasoning would really take it to the next level. The service was honestly one of the highlights. Our waiter was super friendly, cool, and attentive without hovering, which I always appreciate. Overall, there were definitely more hits than misses. The great service, fun atmosphere, and crispy tuna rice are enough for me to give Full Moon Izakaya another try. Next time, I'll be exploring more of the menu!

Quite the opposite here, I have been a long time customer of this particular location and I've always had an amazing experience with the food as well as excellent service from the staff over the years. The chef and staff clearly care a great deal about the establishment and the love is shown all throughout the space. I usually have the Pork Tonkatsu ramen, Katsu sando, and Krazy Fries and everyday I'm away from Phoenix I CRAVE these so badly. Amazing and ambitious flavor combos that all fit so well together. Couldn't recommend this place harder

It does not have any thick, rich broth but the broth that taste like packet. Unfortunately, I felt little scammed that their tonkotsu uses a broth without pork bone. But their response was that their ramen is not traditional (why use the name tonkotsu then? It should be named differently????) Other the menu item misleading, the kimchi did not taste like kimchi either. This is basically like Pei wei or PF Chang type place, overly Americanized Asian food spot. The Krazy fries were good, but way too salty. Overall, this spot uses extra sodium in all of their menu. I usually don't drink a lot of water but I had 2 cups of water and still I felt so salty. Waited 20 minutes for a refill, which we failed to get. So we left. Still tipped 15%.

I've served in restaurants for 20 years, at elite places such as, Hillstone along with Chelsea's Kitchen and Buck and Rider, and I am appalled by the behavior of the staff tonight. I discourage anyone from coming into this place. The service is underrated. And as a paying customer, enjoying a meal with a friend, I am very disturbed that they would kick us out before closing time. This lady walks around and says "closed, closed" and starts turning off all the lights. I said "Oh the website says you close at 10pm" and the lady with the top knot bun and glasses said "yeah, but no one is in here so we are closed." Ummm we were in there. Poor hospitality on their part. Not worth it. Go somewhere else. Sushi Michi on 16th st & Bethany, or Full Moon Izakaya Sushi and Ramen, is way better and they don't close earlier because they didn't have any walkins at the point, nor do they kick people out before closing time. Also when we left a car had just pulled up to grab dinner. Turning away customers is poor ethics on behalf of Cherry Blossom. No wonder no one goes here and everything is so out dated. ALSO I had asked for a wine sample to decide which wine I wanted and our waitress said "we don't do samples". Okay well every other restaurant I've been to and worked at has samples. What a way to miss a sale. Wine was $15 a glass. Wouldn't you want that to improve your check average? These people are turning away money. So sad

We were a party of 12 visiting on vacation, and none of us are from the area. We ordered spam musubi and a chicken skewer as appetizers. Both appetizers arrived well after our entrees had already been served and we had essentially finished eating. Each time we asked about them, we were repeatedly told, "They're coming." Mind you, these are simple appetizers that should not take anywhere near that long to prepare. When we asked for the third time, we finally asked that the appetizers be cancelled since we had already finished our meal. At that point, the gentleman working the front area , tall, with red hair, loudly yelled from across the restaurant, in an extremely rude and confrontational tone, "It's already on the grill!" There was absolutely no reason to speak to paying customers that way. His response was unprofessional, unnecessary, and honestly created a very hostile and uncomfortable feeling during what should have been an enjoyable dinner, especially while our group was on vacation and simply trying to enjoy a meal together. When the appetizers eventually came out, we left them sitting there because we were already done eating and ended up taking them to go. He eventually told us they would be removed from the bill, which we appreciated, but that did not excuse the way the situation was handled. Again, the food was good, but good food does not make up for poor service and especially not for an employee speaking to customers in an aggressive and disrespectful manner. Management should seriously address how customers are treated, because the interaction with this particular employee overshadowed what could have otherwise been a good dining experience for our party of 12.
