    Yuzu Ponzu Oysters @tiffhuangry

    BIRTHDAY SUSHI | whether you're celebrating a special occasion or just wanting to treat yourself, Norifish is the perfect spot without COMPLETELY breaking the bank. Choose the omakase standard or upgrade to the omakase premium to treat yourself! Located inside the same building as Bishop Apartments, Norifish is the perfect addition to the Dunwoody/Sandy Springs area. Parking was easy in the covered parking deck that is shared with the apartments. It's dark and intimate inside, perfect for small groups. I chose Norifish for my small family birthday dinner and my parents loved it, too. After starting with hot tea ($4 for 4 people), we ordered a few share plates and the omakase petite for $60 per person (unfortunately no longer an option, but it was seriously SUCH a steal). It's missing almost half the items offered in Standard and Premium menus, but since we already selected two orders of Yuzu Ponzu Oysters, Ceviche and the Chu Toro Quail Egg Toast to start, we figured we didn't need that much more, which ended up being accurate. The Yuzu Ponzu Oysters are a MUST and if you love ceviche, be sure to add a share plate portion. The Chu Toro Quail Egg toast is rich and luscious - since it's a little heavy, I would recommend it eating it first as a share plate versus in the omakase. The flavors are so unique and fun compared to the traditional omakases I've tried. My favorite bites were the [salmon] belly rice and the sake aburi. Every bite and dish are beautifully plated and taste as good as they good. Overall, a great dining experience! I will definitely be back next time to try the Omakase Premium, and also hope to stop into the Norifish Sushi & Izakaya Buckhead location again soon!!

    NoriFish is a great spot to get your omakase fix at a decent price (standard for $115 and premium for $170). The waitresses were very attentive, making sure that we had enough water and explained each piece of the omakase menu as they served it to us. We sat at the bar so we could watch the chefs create each piece which is always entertaining. They did not lay each piece in front of us, rather they had the waitresses serve it to us in 5 courses. The first seasonal sashimi was a great start. For the first set of 3 piece nigiri, the fish tasted great but a bit on the saucier side compared to what I'm used to. The yuzu flavor really packed a punch in the madai. The second set of nigiri was my favorite, with the chutoro standing out. The third set was also good, with the sake as the stand out. I loved the last set for its creativity, with the soup warming my soul. Overall, this is a great spot if you like flavorful nigiri. The service was amazing and parking is indeed extended for free at the restaurant.

    Came for a special occasion celebration for the first time to the spot and it did not disappoint. They are a good spot for all things sushi and fish. They are actually especially known for their omakase pairings. We tried the omakase and were deliciously surprised by the quality of the food and the variety of the food. The service is excellent and the staff is very attentive. They have their own parking lot and it's very well connected to public transit too. Definitely stop by here for special occasions or just for the love of omakase. We tried the regular omakase and it came with different dishes and each of them were perfectly done. The lichi martini is also very well balanced and stiff.

    Food first, thoughts later... This was mine and my husband's first omakase experience. It was truly phenomenal. The staff were very knowledgable and friendly. The ingredients were all so fresh and I love the flavors and textures. Each piece was decorated towards perfection and I appreciated that very much. We got the premium omakase.

    Came here for the omakase to celebrate my belated birthday and balled out. No notes. Just pure perfection. Everything from the presentation, the fish, the service--just awesome. The place wasn't pretentious; it actually felt like a standard sushi place at first. But no, the quality of the fish and the wagyu was sooooo high grade. I don't know much about grades of fish and wagyu, but you know when you eat something and there's just a subtle fresh flavor. just had amazing quality fish. BF and I sat at the bar and watched everyone work their magic. My favorite was the otoro (fatty tuna).

    Having gone to multiple omakase places both in and outside of Atlanta, my husband and I wanted to just spend whatever we would have spent on omakase but just ordering whatever we wanted. We went with 2 other friends where we split the small plates and just ordered whatever nigiri pieces we wanted. The quality of the fish was amazing and each of the pieces were flavored in a way that made you appreciate it. Great place to go if you want to splurge and have a very nice meal. Small plates: all of them were excellent - Chu Toro and Quail Egg Toast: medium fatty tuna, nikiri, sunny side up quail egg, truffle aioli, pecorino romano. - Yuzu Ponzu Oysters: half dozen oysters, yuzu honey ponzu, blood orange, serrano relish - Crab OshiZushi: crab, sushi rice, avocado cream, lemon aioli, niki, rice pearls, roasted garlic salt, chive Sushi: the price comes with 2 nigiri pieces - Madai: sea brea, sudachi, yuzu sal, ginger - Kinmedai: golden eye snapper, yuzu, pink salt, shallot oil - Kanpachi: young yellowtail, yuzu wasabi dressing, nikiri, nori dust, chive - Chu Toro: nikiri, truffle aiol, garlic salt, crispy shallot - Otoro: blue fin tuna belly, nikiri, truffle salt, caviar - Hotate: seared scallop, lime, nori aioli, orange zest, pink salt - Uni: sea urchin, nikiri, toasted nori, chive To give an idea, the price of at least 22 pieces of nigiri (lost count lol) + splitting the small plates + 1 cocktail tax/tip was $352 for 2 people

    Omakase menu, 1/8/25

    Y'all. Y'ALL. I knew this was gonna be good when our Uber driver had no idea where his GPS was taking us, but I wasn't ready for just how good. I was in Atlanta for a few days. Eight of us decided at 7pm one night to try to grab a sushi reso - the restaurant was super gracious and accommodating and got us a table at 8pm! We were a group of big sushi addicts and decided to jump in on the omakase. This was nerve-wracking for me because I'm a control freak and I have food allergies but I let Sushi Jesus take the wheel. Tuna and yellowfish are my favorites so the menu was absolute fire for me. Every course was better than the last until we hit this insane tuna trio that literally rendered every single person mute, it was so good. I was sitting among friends from Seattle and Manhattan who are known and proud food snobs who reject most anything we've fed them in the southeast, but all of them rated NoriFish a top 3 sushi experience for them. I have only had omakase one other time and it was at the Vegas Nobu during the Super Bowl, so I figured it was something I'd never have at that echelon again but damned if lil NoriFish wasn't better tasting across the board! The only miss for me was the very very very pungent consommé course, but fortunately my buddy loved it so much that he traded me his matcha "sundae" and a future round draft pick for my consommé - win. We also found our favorite rice beer on tap, so was a great experience in every category (except I think I lost my favorite leopard gloves there and that's very sad).

    Came back 2 years later and the food is just as amazing if not better. We did the KATAYABURI OMAKASE this time and it was the perfect amount of food. Everything was super fresh and tasted delicious. My husband is not a fan of the uni so the chef switched it to a tuna, which he loved. Chef Calvin was super friendly and very personable. Our server was warm and sweet. We had a 5:45PM reservation and sat at the bar. When we walked in, there were a few tables. Atmosphere was inviting and intimate. By the time we left, the place was full, but it didn't feel crowded. We loved our experience and will be visiting again. Hopefully they open a location in Alpharetta soon!

    Norifish stays on top of my list of best Japanese spots! This was my 3rd time coming back for my best friend's birthday in January (and we came back again in April for mine) and it still remains incredible in taste, quality, and service. Food: - Fresh, no fishy smell (of course), and perfectly complementary flavors. - Each course progressively gets better than the last once, which they masterfully curated so make sure you listen to the wait staff's recommendations of where to start (usually from left to right). - Norifish has my favorite kind of real wasabi (not green horseradish) -- kizami (or pickled). It comes complimentary unlike other places that only give you fresh wasabi for an additional fee, and it's so addicting! - You will be full by the end of the dining experience! Drinks: - Always gotta order a lychee martini at Norifish! Light and delicious but still packs a punch. Service: - The staff are friendly and accommodating! Ambiance: - Not an overly stuffy place so you can kick back and enjoy yourself (but of course, remain courteous to others around you!) - If you're wanting omakase without brushing elbows with your neighbor, this is the place for you! Most omakase places can be very intimate so if you have social anxiety, it can be a bit daunting. At Norifish, you don't have to worry about that. You can have omakase either at the bar or your own table for privacy.

    Incredible! Thank you for the very fair prices, incredible ambiance and delicious food! It tasted so fresh I want to come in every day. Great service too. Standard omakase was a lovely birthday treat. Good work NoriFish!

    I have been going here once a week for the last year and half. This is the best omakase you can get in Atlanta, hands down. The moment you walk in, you are greeted and the entire staff is kind. You can see all the chefs freshly working on your food, should you choose to sit there. Ambiance is serene and classy. The owner is a great guy!!

    Heard great things about this place! Great omakase at its price point and you are actually full after. Seems like there are a lot of citrus elements so just fyi if you are or aren't into that. All fish was so tender and fresh. We got the standard omakase at $110/pp. Last course has some rice so we were quite full after that. Dessert not bad, but would have liked red bean to go with the matcha ice cream rather than chocolate for a more classic pairing. Couldn't take too many pictures bc I was too busy eating! Service is great and looking forward to taking friends here someday.

    We didn't have a reservation and decided to take a chance walking in. They were able to squeeze us in luckily for a quick omakase. Norifish is very trendy and fun place to take out of town guests or impress your date! I was looking forward to more of a "traditional" omakase where the chef prepares each piece at a time but NoriFish serves a few pieces at a time; it makes sense given how intricate each of their pieces are. The fish is very fresh and the flavors are delicious. I do wish they included a few pieces that didn't have all the extra flavors so that the quality of the fish could really shine through instead of getting drowned out by all the toppings and flavors. Overall, this was a great omakase experience but definitely a less "traditional" omakase with more toppings on each piece.

    So, I was craving Sashimi/Sushi. Who am I kidding? I'm always craving it. No different when I was…read morein Dunwoody last week. Found it online. Thanks Yelp. And there I was. Can't speak for parking as I walked over. You'll have to call and ask or drive around and check it out for yourself. I didn't make a reservation but as busy as it got, I'd recommend it just in case. I sat at the Sushi bar - there's also a bar - but if you want a table - that's where it got busy, then busier when I finished up and left. Service was great! Sitting at the Sushi bar, the crew behind the counter was busy but the wait staff checked up on me like I was a VIP. I didn't even need to ask - someone was there to follow up. Not hovering. Just great timing. They do not offer Sashimi sets thus what you see in the pics I posted. Not complaining - I got my fix later in the week. But enjoyed the meal from appetizer, to dessert and the drinks in-between. I especially enjoyed the Yellowtail Jalapeno - nice punch of flavor - same for the Crab Sunomono. The Margarita Roll had a little kick - not spicy for me but if you're sensitive to spicy heat - might want to avoid. Grabbed the Banana Tempura for dessert. Figured it would pair well with the Banana Bread Old Fashioned. It didn't. Little to strong for it. That's on me. But enjoyed the separately. Next time I'd order something that doesn't overpower the dessert. But next time I might just say it's two desserts - the second being of a liquid variety. Anyway, would I go back? Lots of other places to try but I wouldn't hesitate if someone wanted to go and asked me to tag along.

    Girls' night approved! The place feels modern with its dark toned decor and ambient lighting (while…read morestill being well-lit). We were seated on the second floor and our server handled our party of 6 with ease. The sake list is very extensive, and I really enjoyed the few that I tried. What's more, the glassware they use to keep the sake cool was...COOL (check the pictures, but you should order some and see for yourself)! We were also pleasantly surprised by the decently priced but beautifully executed menu. Try the golden California roll if it's your speed. I think half of us got to-go orders after having a wonderful dinner (shoutout to our server for alerting us before the kitchen closed for the night), and we're already planning our next outing!

I'll settle for a great Sashimi/Sushi dinner experience though .... I parked in back at the public parking structure back behind the building. I don't remember how much it was but just pay by phone so you don't get stroked a ticket. It was less than $10 for two hours is all I remember. Just not exactly how much. Walked over and around and skipped one place because there was signage about being dressed appropriately. I probably could have passed but I didn't want to feel like eating in what I envisioned as a stuffy stuck up place. Turning the corner it started raining so I ducked into Yuka.

One of the highlights was the Kimi Oboro, prepared using a 200-year-old vinegar technique -- simply remarkable. My sister loved every dish, even falling in love with the pickled ginger! The service was outstanding as well -- two servers took care of us throughout the evening, always greeting us with genuine smiles and impeccable manners.

There were no signs posted indicating any restrictions regarding service animals, and legitimate service animals are protected under federal law.

    Firstly, I want to share that I have celiac disease--a serious medical gluten allergy--as well as a…read moredairy allergy. Because of this, dining out, especially at a buffet, always felt nearly impossible to me. Nori Nori completely changed that perception. My first interaction with the restaurant was a phone call to ask whether they offered tamari. The hostess was incredibly courteous and immediately reassured me that they did. When I arrived, I was warmly escorted to my table, and the Chef/Owner--who I believe held both roles--personally came over to guide me through the menu items I should avoid. She also explained that many dishes could be prepared gluten-free and dairy-free so I could enjoy them safely. That level of care and attentiveness was both comforting and genuinely touching. Now, onto the food... They offered veggie and salmon rolls, refreshing cold salads, and hot dishes such as Oriental Fish, steamed snow crab legs, seasoned scallops, and some of the fluffiest white rice I've had in quite some time. At one point, I had a question about a particular dish, and before I could even worry, the Chef was right there to help. She kindly steered me toward another wonderfully fragrant option that was safer for me to enjoy. Her attentiveness felt incredibly sincere--like someone truly invested in making sure I had both a safe and memorable dining experience. That small gesture meant more to me than I can fully express. Living with dietary restrictions means that something as routine as choosing a meal can be emotionally exhausting and potentially dangerous without constant vigilance. To make the experience even more thoughtful, the restaurant also provided plastic gloves so I wouldn't need to touch shared tongs or surfaces. Since I can react to contact with gluten-contaminated surfaces, this extra precaution made me feel genuinely cared for. And finally, dessert: sliced honeydew, cantaloupe, and CHERRY JELLO! It was the perfect ending to such a thoughtful, safe, and genuinely delicious dining experience. I can't wait to return again!

One would have thought that management would have come over to apologize, but they did not! This indicates that management probably could care less if we ever came back to spend over $650!!!

    There are actually several types of food I like to get at Sushi Nami:…read more Sushi and Sashimi Bento Boxes Noodles Not to say they have a bunch of other sections such as donburi, fried rice, cold noodles, small plates, teriyaki plates, and even a section called "I don't like raw stuff" which has things like tempura lunch, fish and chips, tonkatsu and more! I recommend 12 and 69, Big O, Jalapeno Lobster (actually made with an entire lobster), The River, Tommy Sunset, Up the Stream and Wicked Tuna. I always enjoy Sushi and Sashimi plate for when I just straight up want sashimi, and then I do recommend the Nabeyaki udon noodle soup (with added egg) it is just the perfect dish when it's cold out. Last but not least the bento boxes are huge and the salmon, beef, and chicken are all tasty. You have the option to sit inside vs outside, the outside is light and nice in the warmer months, and the inside is a darker vibe, probably good for a date. I have to take off a star though because service can just be SUPER slow here.

    Such a chic spot! The decor and amount of light are awesome. My friend suggested it - her 16 yo had…read morea wonderful birthday party here recently- and I had my first poke bowl! I love all the ingredients - tuna, salmon, avo, etc- and the size was great for lunch. Our server was attentive and our lunch was out quickly. I'll go back just for that dish next time I'm in town.

    We enjoyed various temaki (Japanese hand rolls), along with other food and drink, from Cuddlefish's…read morerestaurant menu and separate bakery and cafe menu this past Saturday. Everything was good, as was the service and ambiance. This is a fun and neat concept - unique to Atlanta - located in the High Street mixed-use development in Dunwoody/Perimeter. Cuddlefish originally opened in the old Brush Sushi space in Decatur in November 2022. Cuddlefish moved and opened in Dunwoody in March 2025. (Brush moved and opened in Buckhead in August 2023.) Cuddlefish is from the same Michelin-starred, award-winning folks behind Brush, Lucky Star, Momonoki, etc. (Jason Liang, ChingYao Wang, John Chen). Cuddlefish is on OpenTable, so you can book reservations there and earn points. Free parking is available in one of High Street's garages. The best place to park is in the garage that's in the same building as Cuddlefish. Enter the garage via Cross St. After parking, there's a convenient walkway that leads out of the garage that's only a couple storefronts away from Cuddlefish. The restaurant has a nice corner spot at High Street. Outside, there's a spacious covered patio. Inside, the temaki bar, dining room, and bakery-cafe all share a modern, open space. The bakery-cafe is small. We had a party of five, including a baby. Here's what my wife and I had: RESTAURANT: Sake Creations * Matcha Saketini sake cocktail ($14) Other Drinks * Yuzu Lychee Mocktail (off-menu, on the house; thank you!) Starters * Sweet Potato Chips ($6) - plum seasoning * Garlic Black Pepper Edamame ($7) * Crispy Tofu ($10) - Sichuan peppercorn, soy garlic, scallion Temaki * Chili Avocado ($7) - chili ponzu, chili paste, negi * Truffle Shiitake ($8) * Shrimp Katsu ($9) - pineapple, cantaloupe * Real Crab California ($9) - chili aioli * Salmon Tataki, cooked ($8) - Asian pear, shallot ponzu, negi * Yellowtail & Salsa ($8) - jalapeno cilantro, fried leeks * Salmon Tataki, regular ($8) - Asian pear, shallot ponzu, negi, ikura * Toro Uni Ikura ($25) * Salmon Ikura ($9) * Hokkaido Uni ($25) BAKERY-CAFE: * Matcha Tiramisu Latte ($7) - iced, oat milk * Matcha Strawberry Croissant Cup ($7) * Matcha Chocolate Cookie ($5) My wife and I each had five temaki plus apps. That was enough to fill us up for a meal. I probably could've had one or two more temaki. In general, every item was well-made and delicious. All of the temaki were great and all of the ingredients were fresh. The presentation was beautiful. My favorite temaki were the Toro Uni Ikura, Salmon Ikura, and Hokkaido Uni. My wife is pregnant, so they accommodated her with a free mocktail, cooking the salmon and excluding the ikura on her Salmon Tataki temaki. We appreciated that. Our table gobbled everything up. The Matcha Saketini was thick and heavy on the matcha. We did find it cumbersome to remove two strips of plastic for each temaki, but we understand why they do it (to keep the seaweed crisp). Sometimes, some of the ingredients would slide off with the plastic wrap, which was not ideal. I heard that if you sit at the bar, you don't have to deal with the plastic wrap (e.g., if you do a temaki tasting). The treats from the bakery-cafe were yummy. Service was excellent. All of the staff was polite and friendly. Thank you, Sian, Etta, and the Asian guy with glasses whose name I did not get. The name "Cuddlefish" is a play on cuttlefish, which is similar to a squid. Growing up, I ate dried cuttlefish from Thailand as a snack.
