Excellent spicy chicken, with a nice salad. A steady flow of customers coming in after 1pm, so must be pretty good. Looked liked they had a good lunch menu too. read more

Nori Presto - Spicy chicken - Japanese Near Me - Renton, Washington

I used to love this place and have been many times. Sadly after one too many negative experiences with employees (manager/owner?), I've decided I'm done eating here. I've witnessed this particular employee get into arguments with customers and not long ago, fellow staff (fought with kitchen). That already put a bad taste in my mouth and during my most recent visit, she took out her bad attitude on me. Over what? Her colleague got my order when I called in for pick up. No biggie, I wasn't even that bothered by that. What bothered me was this same employee chimed in trying to say it was my fault. I don't believe that to be true but even if it was, why are you so combative? There's plenty of other places to eat that won't treat you weird. read more

The place felt sticky and dirty. It was also hot, w flies buzzing around, even though it's almost the end of September. The food was so so, but seeing the filth around, made it unappetizing. The server was also rude. read more

I like that they put allot of sauce on the teriyaki plus give you extra sauce, and I really like their sauce. I think the the portions are somewhat generous, especially when you order the large teriyaki. Tip: the large teriyaki has so much meat that there's not always enough rice so I recommend a side of rice which is very affordable and then you can feed up to three people with a large teriyaki. I love the pork and like the chicken too. I like their tuna roll which is like a traditional maki roll, and the California roll is good too. The food has always been ready promptly when I arrived. I usually use their own website to order online and it seems like a decent system. The restaurant will pay less fees if you use the system on their own website, which is the case with all restaurants. Running restaurant has narrow margins so if you like them, help them survive! I would rate this as a solid 4 to 4 1/2 so I'm giving them a five to try to bring their average back up. I don't have any photos to share because we ate the food ravenously during the Seahawks game! read more

Still my favorite teriyaki spot in Renton. When I'm craving it I'm usually ordering it from here. The taste of their chicken is always fresh. I don't know if it's my ocd self but I appreciate the fact that they cut their chicken in thinner pieces all uniform. Makes it more enjoyable for me to eat. Miso soup comes with the meal too! I feel like a lot of places don't do this anymore? Sauce is bomb, salad + dressing is also. The last several times I've ordered California rolls with my meals they were disappointing. The rolls were barely together and the ratio from rice to imitation crab were off. I think service is normal. I've only dined in a few times and always order to go. Inside looks like every other mom and pop teriyaki shop which I like. A good teriyaki place to try if you're in the area! read more

Nori Presto - Chicken teriyaki plate - Japanese Near Me - Renton, Washington

Rarely do I ever get teriyaki but I didn't want to cook and it's so close to a grocery store. Came in for a quick to-go order and got 3 chicken bento boxes. They are so fast that when I went to the store to get some groceries (10 minutes), the food was already packed. The reason why I rarely go to teriyaki places is that it's too charred for me and the sauce is way too sweet. They have a good variety though if you're not interested in teriyaki - stir fry, noodles, Chinese dishes, etc. the portions are plentiful and enough for the next day as well. The place seems clean and lots of take out while I was ordering. read more

I picked up take out for others: spicy chicken bowl ($8.99), large bento ($21.99) and large spicy chicken teriyaki (cannot recall price). Pretty quick, maybe 10 min wait and they were relatively busy with take out orders. The spicy chicken bowl was pretty big imo, if you got that and a side you'd have enough for 2. Very generous portions all around, lots of the sauce too which if you like, is great to eat with rice. Everyone seemed satisfied and excited. it is pretty cold in the restaurant. read more

$17.99 for a Spider Roll that is burnt, 4 pieces that should be at least 6, no crab ends which is a major part of a spider roll. Absolutely terrible. read more

Best teriyaki around, especially the spicy teriyaki! Good price, tons of food and unlike other places, not greasy and heavy feeling

Nope. Tempura prawns with their poop shoot still intact are disguising. I won't go full Karen and drive back and ask for a refund but this is definitely going straight into the garbage. read more

I can't tell you how many times Nori Presto has save me on days that I'm not able to run to the store and prepare dinner due to late night work. We usually order a large kalbi, which comes with a side of salad and the large bento with chicken teriyaki and California rolls, it also comes with fried gyoza and side salad. The portions is really generous for what you're paying for. The staff here is really nice and kind, never disappoint. Pretty consistent, I will definitely come here and support this establishment and so should you, go check it out. read more

We got spicy chicken teriyaki and shrimp yakisoba today and they were inedible. The chicken and shrimp were very overcooked and hard to swallow. The service was unfriendly and very pushy with tipping the chef before even getting the food. We ended up switching from dine in to take out. read more

Ordered to dine in and took 20 minutes, 5 other people for their orders Togo and left. They put my order in a go to box and it sat there for 10 minutes. Food barely warm, chicken katsu so dry They didn't care read more

Greatest God damn teriyaki ever. Best bento ever. Best front door ever. Bathroom not so great.

I really hope Nori Presto sees this because I do love their establishment. Nori Presto used to be my favorite Teriyaki spot. However, over the past 2 years, their quality has gone down while their prices have gone up. I am not sure what prompted this or why they thought this was a good idea. Their food used to be high quality while still being affordable. Originally, 15 dollars would get you a large chicken teriyaki. This included some fresh rice, high quality chicken, fresh salad, and a side of teriyaki sauce. Now, you will almost pay 20 DOLLARS for some mushy rice, old salad, and mediocre chicken at best. I do love this place. But it is no longer worth it at all to me. Nori Presto, please either revise your prices or your quality. If you are going to charge me 20 dollars for a large chicken teriyaki with a little extra sauce, I expect the rice to not be mushy and the salad to be fresh. If revising the quality of your food isn't an option, then revise your price. 20 dollars for what you guys offer is a borderline scam. read more

Ordered takeout from here recently and was soooo happy with it. The udon had some veggies and tofu bits in it that went so well with the soft and savory broth. The tempura shrimp that came with the udon and my side order of tempura veggies were so crisp and not heavy on the oil or breading. The beef short ribs and beef teriyaki did have a bit more sauce than desired but the cook was perfect and the flavors were great. read more

Ordered various items that included a teriyaki chicken breast with teriyaki sauce on the side instead got one drowning in sauce. Called about ordered and was told "oh, sorry I didn't understand."

This review is for one visit in Feb. 2020. Came in with a friend for dinner. He got chicken teriyaki made with chicken breast only, and I got regular chicken teriyaki. Neither of us had been here before. The place was semi busy. We ordered at the counter and waited. And waited. And waited. We saw other tables that had come in after us receive their orders, who were also dining in. Finally mine came - but just mine. Another 10 minutes passed, and my friend's meal had yet to arrive. One of the clerks walked over after delivering two more tables their orders and told him that his was on the way. Finally, he got his food after 30 minutes. Mine was nice and cold as I had waited for him. No apology was given to him. They could have good food, but I don't remember, writing this 2 months later. Frankly, all I remember is the service. read more

Love Nori Presto! We typically order the spicy chicken teriyaki, beef teriyaki and the orange chicken. We also love their bento box options. read more

We love their pork teriyaki bento box! The pork is so tender and juicy (not talking the raw juicy) but the fact that it isn't dry and just drenched with sauce, it's impressive. The prices is reasonable, comes with the salad and California roll. We've ordered their gyoza before which is ok. We've grown to like the smaller/miniature size ones (which some can argue isn't "authentic" but bite me.. that's what we like). We do think it's best eaten "fresh". Unfortunately when we get ours and by the time we get home (~28 min drive) that freshness isn't the same anymore. Don't get me wrong, still good but just not "hmmm damn that's good - dancing while sitting good" read more

When I opened the container of the shrimp yakisoba I ordered there was a long back line of poop on every shrimp!! The hole thing went right in the garbage!! If I lived closer I would take it back for a refund! Who doesn't clean "de-vain" shrimp before cooking especially when it is staring you in the face?? This is not ok people!! Disgusting!!! read more

Nori Presto - Shrimp "Yuk"isoba!! - Japanese Near Me - Renton, Washington

I left Seattle 13 years ago and the last time I was here was 8 years ago. I am saying this for context. My entire childhood was fueled by a love for teriyaki My family welcomed Japanese exchange students and enjoyed every moment they shared their culture with us. Our appreciation for Japanese cuisine deepened as we weekly frequented Mr Lee's Toshi's Teriyaki in Kirkland. He would take so much care in preparing the simplest of dishes and making sure my siblings and I would try and assess different meals- all the while learning to listen to our tastebuds. If you are still reading this, I need you to understand Nori gave me my Ratatouille moment. This place took me back to my childhood.Clearly she elevates everything she touches. Nori - thank you! I see the care, order and love you put into my meal. Thank you for taking me back to Mr Lee's restaurant one more time. When I move back, I will create new memories with my family in your restaurant. To the salt haters- your Anglo tastebuds are not the fault of Nori. Consider the opinions you choose to share here. If you can't appreciate, don't fault the painter for your inability to appreciate the art. - an Anglo Conservative who suffers from a deep appreciation for Japanese fare. read more

Order Mongolian beef meat overcook looks like charcoal you can not even chew. Left all the meat, rice was good for $22. Not recommended.

Favorite local spot for teriyaki. Not sure about the negative reviews, I've never had a problem with the quality or the service. Huge servings. read more

A great neighborhood spot that always has good food and great customer service! I love the chicken yakisoba and you get so much in the regular size portion! The orange chicken and chicken teriyaki are good but the yakisoba is by far my favorite! Good size portions and tasty flavors! read more

Great good, good portions, and very friendly staff. The dining area is always clean. Spicy chicken teriyaki is the best!

This is the 2nd time we ordered food while we were next door at the brewery. We got a salmon roll and a chicken and pork large combo meal. So much food that we had enough for a 2nd meal. Every time we order -- it is fast and fresh. I love the salad dressing and the chicken has the best char on it. The staff are friendly and kind. Last time we ordered the large chicken meal - tons of chicken, side salad, and 2 large scoops of rice. read more

I wanted to try a new teriyaki spot in the area and decided on this place. I got the Chicken Teriyaki Combo with Gyoza and it was good as expected but not much different from other local teriyaki places. It was around $18 for this combo and It didn't even come with a drink. A little on the pricey side but at least they have a wide variety of food options. read more

Beat spicy chicken teriyaki in the area. I couldn't believe how big of a portion I got when I ordered the Large. Highly recommend!

Not sure what has happened (new management or completely new staff?) but my last three experiences have not been up to previous standards. Inefficient and not very friendly service, and the food is just not as good as before. My last visit included miso soup that was so salty as to be inedible. Time to give this old favorite a break, I guess. Disappointing. read more

Teriyaki chicken is delicious, not dry or charred. Bento box is such a great variety. I usually get a Cali roll & teriyaki. Love that it comes with gyoza too. Every time I have a craving for teriyaki, this is my go-to. Can you expand to Kent or Federal Way please!?! read more

This a pretty good spot for teriyaki that's close to the house. They have a good selection like other places but also offer sushi, Chinese dishes, as well as alcohol which isn't the norm but it's a nice option. The biggest selling point for me is that they are open Sunday. Which is nice because most other teriyaki places are closed then. I gave it a three for there state food rating. Other than that I would recommend to someone if they asked. I hope this helps in your decision to come here. read more
