If you love Sushi, this is the place to go. The fish is so fresh and perfectly paired with special accents that make for a flavourful tasting experience. If it's your first time definitely start with the omakase. The carpaccio appetizer was wonderful. If you prefer to order per piece, my personal favorites were the shimaji, king Salmon, and the Hamachi though they are ALL truly delicious. Micheal and Philip were very attentive. Look forward to coming back! read more

I cannot say enough great things about this place. My husband and I had his omakase when he was still at Soupa Saiyan 3. It was so exciting to hear he finally opened up his own establishment. He has a well curated menu - we enjoyed every piece that we ordered. He is personable and gives ample attention to his guests. If you ever have the opportunity to go here - please do. It's in a great space. Grab a bite to eat here and enjoy the area. You will not regret it. read more

Checked out Norigami, and it was definitely an exceptional experience! Norigami is located inside Plant Street Market, and only has 8 seats available. They may have walk-ins, if available, but I highly recommend making reservations to guarantee an amazing dining experience. Once seated, guests are given a paper menu where you mark which pieces and how many pieces you want, ranging from sashimi, nigiri, torched nigiri, and handroll. There are a few appetizers that I would recommend trying as well such as the Popcorn Hamachi and Baked Fish Collar. All of the dishes were amazing, and can't go wrong with any of the fish that you order. My absolute favorites were the Madai, Shimaji, Toro, and Torched Colossal Shrimp and Torched Scallop! Overall, do yourself a favor, and visit Norigami to enjoy an unforgettable experience! read more

This place is great! Make sure you get a reservation, they seem to have lots of availability. I got the popcorn hamachi and tuna carpaccio appetizer, we both preferred the popcorn but if you like truffle, maybe you'll like tuna more. We both also got the omakase (10 piece) and it's plenty of food, every bite was great but both are faves was the scallop which is not usually a favorite. Service was nice and quick and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the vibe is great being in the food hall, they make it feel upscale despite it being a casual food and beer hall[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

This is such a great gem in Winter Garden! Located down the hall from the Crooked Can, probably the best sushi around. Chef David is amazing and his menu is top notch! It's only seats 8 so make sure you make a reservation on OpenTable. Our favorite choice is the Omakase. I'd give 10 starts if I could read more

When I tell you Chef David and his crew delivered, I meant it. We follow Chef David way back when he was at another Omakase place and will forever go where he goes. His heart is so pure and one of the most genuine chef we ever met. Literally cares for his food like no other. All of the fishes were super fresh and of course will melt in your mouth. He let us try one of the best combo there ever existed: Uni and Toro. We also loved everything with Strip Jack. The miso salmon was alittle salty but other than that, we loved the whole experience! Also shoutout for such crunch seaweed for the hand rolls. Definitely a plus plus! read more

You would never imagine to find an omakase sushi bar in a food hall so this was a really nice treat! They only take reservations. There is a sign that says no walk ups but you can look and see if they have a table open online. We had made reservations ahead of time and were instantly greeted to sit down. There isn't a host or a waitress so the sushi chefs behind the counter provide excellent service in all aspects of your dining experience. I was a little shocked that a bottle of water was $2.75 and that they don't offer tap water but that's fine. The water had a Bento logo on it so I'm like oh wow! They are owned by Bento - who happened to be the stall across from them with a limited smaller menu than their regular restaurants. The dining experience at Norigami was as expected with other omakase restaurants I've been to. Anyone who ordered the 10 piece omakase received the same nigiri piece at the same time. My absolute favorite had to be the King Salmon. That one was delicious. The other pieces were okay. Tasty and fresh but not too unique to me. This omakase also came with 1 handroll and 1 miso soup. The soup was delicious and better than I thought it would be. I thought the price point of $70 was amazing and I would do it again even though I feel like I've had better omakase at a much higher price point. read more

Finally made it to Norigami a few weeks ago and it was truly fantastic. I decided to go with "more omakase" and I think it was like 15 sushi pieces plus a hand roll. I was so full, but I ordered an additional piece of their striped jack because it's absolutely my favorite preparation of that fish (note: striped jack is probably my favorite fish I never knew about until eating at Edoboy). There are 3 chefs behind the 8 seat bar, and they're truly nice and they keep the fish flowing. It's at the quieter end of Plant street market, and they have some of my favorite Lego sets as decorations. If you love sushi, definitely head over to Winter Garden! read more

Norigami delivered such an elevated Omakase experience you wouldn't expect from such a casual environment of Plant St Market. Their Omakase 10 pieces nigiri chef tasting was amazing for just $60. Each piece of fish was exceptional and the quality was honestly well beyond what you paid for. The chefs made us feel comfortable and the interactions were natural and not forced, which is a huge plus for me as an introvert. Definitely the best sushi experience Winter Garden has to offer! Pro Tips: (1) They don't serve alcohol so definitely grab a beer or two from Crooked Can Brewery before you sit down. (2) Definitely make reservation beforehand or you'll risk showing up and all the seats are reserved. read more

WOW. Located inside the food hall on Plant Street. Plenty of free street parking. Made a reservation via Opentable just like how previous Yelpers had mentioned, thank you! Cozy little 8 seater. Came here to celebrate our 19year anniversary. First time we ate sushi with our hand. Nigiri would be placed on the origami paper. Pickup your nigiri and pop it in your mouth but leave the origami paper as is. The chef will continue to serve the other pieces on it. We ordered two Omakase 10pieces, along with some sashimi and temaki. We enjoyed every bit of it and would definitely return!!! The only downside is they do not serve any hot tea or offer a glass of water. Soft drinks and water available for purchase. Beer and wine also available down the hall at Crooked Can Brewery. read more

I went here with a friend last week and ordered the 10 piece chefs tasting. It was worth every bite and every penny. The care that went into making each piece of fish was wonderful to see. The sushi chefs have such an art to every piece of fish we were served. The fish melted in my mouth and was unlike anything I've ever tasted at a normal sushi restaurant. Everything was so fresh. The flavors paired with each piece of fish were perfect and unique. I thoroughly enjoyed the intimacy of the experience too. Only eight people seated at the counter to watch the magic of what went on. Every thing about this restaurant is special. I can't wait to go back. read more

My brother was raving about this place and was so excited to take me here. He is extremely hard to please so I knew this was going to be great. Norigami is inside Plant St Market which has other various food stalls. I was able to grab a beer elsewhere and bring it over without any problem. I ordered the $65 omakase and was so impressed. Not only was the quality and flavor out of this world, you also really can't beat the price. If you haven't tried an omakase experience before - I highly suggest Norigami to start. The staff are extremely friendly and I love the intimate counter seating! read more

Me and my wife went here for our anniversary and it was hands down the best Sushi in Orlando. We will definitely be back. The service provided by Michael and Philip were undeniably the best. Overall we loved our experience and will be back soon, we would definitely recommend if you want sushi in Orlando come here. read more

I wanted to check what the hype was about for this place. It was a pretty decent price compared to other places. Reservations were ideal, but if there are empty seats they do offer open seating. I did enjoy most of the items served. A few of the items were a bit salty for me. Great way to dip your feet in to trying different fishes. They do offer a la cart items as well. read more

We had an amazing experience at Norigami -- an 8-seat chef's sushi counter located inside the Plant Street Market in Winter Garden. Chef David is phenomenal and overall it was a great value for the price. We easily made reservations on OpenTable, which I'd highly recommend before going. Our seats were reserved and we sat down right at 5pm. They give you a paper menu that lists all different fish you can try and a pencil to easily mark off the ones that you want to order. Each piece of fish can be ordered sashimi style (no rice), nigiri (with rice), or temaki (handroll). We started with the Popcorn Hamachi appetizer to share which was fantastic! If you're not sure what to order, definitely go for the omakase chef's nigiri tasting which is about 10-12 pieces for $60. My husband went that route while I individually selected my pieces. We noticed that my selections were pretty similar to the chef's tasting, but he received a few more off-menu surprises and it probably ended up being a better value, so next time I'd just go for the omakase to keep it simple. My favorite bites were the king salmon with truffle cream, the hotate (Japanese scallop), and the colossal shrimp with cajun mayo, but they were all delicious. Definitely looking forward to our next visit! Also note that if you'd like any sake/beer/wine to pair with your sushi, you'll want to order that first down at Crooked Can since that's the only place inside Plant St. Market that sells alcohol. read more

Norigami is hands-down the best deal for an Omakase experience! The courses were fresh, beautifully presented, and such a great value. I loved being able to order Sake and have it delivered right to the table during the meal. Every single bite was excellent, the highlight for me was the melt-in-your-mouth Wagyu--absolutely unforgettable! read more

This is my second time here. I was over the moon the first time I ate here just over a year ago and meant to review it on here but I guess I never did. I can confirm it's still as great as the first time. I was served by Chef Austin, who was the same chef who served me last time! Once I told him where I was from he mentioned that he remembered serving me too. They're really fast with serving you piece after piece and they key into pacing the courses really well depending on the group they are serving. I ordered the grand omakase and pretty much every piece was outstanding. The ratio of fish to rice is great too. Every piece of fish is treated extremely well, with just the right amount of age, seasoning, and the garnish complements every piece extremely well. They are definitely playful here. One of the more interesting pieces was the Hokkaido Uni with house made peanut butter. I enjoyed the similar texture, and it was an interesting contrast of flavors. Very rich. This time they added a Wagyu piece as well and it was very good. The Unagi was also the best piece I've ever had. Great texture and a very mellow bbq sauce that let the eel itself shine. They had this King Salmon with miso aburi piece that was just crazy Miami and melted in my mouth. Their lighter pieces towards the beginning were also excellent, letting the fish shine. The Hotate has excellent flavor and texture and had some house made fermented hot sauce that was excellent and provided awesome dimension. I added a few more pieces at the end because I was particularly hungry, and treated it a bit like a greatest hits. They also served me a new hand roll towards the end with colossal shrimp which was great. The attention to detail is just wild and I can't wait to come back every single time I am in the area. read more

We visited Norigami on a Wednesday night. We didn't realize they had reservations, so we put in to go orders. I got a chirashi bowl, and my friend ordered a tuna sashimi and a crudo. We sat outside with our food. The chirashi had a lot of avocado in it (which wasn't advertised) but was otherwise good. There wasn't the variety of fish I normally expect from chirashi, and I wish it had been served with a little more wasabi, but I was certainly a member of the clean plate club! The fish was fresh and the rice serving was healthy. My friend wasn't so lucky. The tuna sashimi he ordered for $8 only had one piece, which he didn't expect. In my experience, usually $8 can get you 2-3 pieces depending on the fish. He also found the sauce on the crudo very sweet, saying he wouldn't order it again. Overall, I do wish that the serving sizes were a little bigger overall for what we paid, so I've reduced the rating by a star, The chirashi had a lot of rice, but not a ton of fish. but I do want to return to try their omikase. read more

Norigami - Japanese Near Me - Winter Garden, Florida

I was craving sushi this past weekend and saw this place under the "Hot and New" search feature on Yelp. I also heard great things from a friend who went recently as well so I thought I'd give it a shot. I was able to quickly reserve 2 spots on OpenTable which was convenient and easy. I realized that it was located inside of Plant Street Market and I was excited to go because it had been about a year since I last visited that food hall. When we walked up, we ran into some other friends who just ate there and they were raving about it which got us even more pumped up to dine there... and friends... I gotta say... Norigami did not disappoint!!! I opted for the omakase experience which was only $60 for 10 nigiri (I think I actually wound up getting 2 additional pieces) and then I ordered another round of my favorite bite which was of the King Salmon. It melts in your mouth like butter and it's making me salivate just thinking about it. You might want to order 3 of them, it's definitely a "cannot miss" bite. We really enjoyed the entire dining experience. The chefs and service were top notch and I will absolutely be back. Bonus tip: if you want some sake to go with your meal, you'll need to order it from The Crooked Can (located at the end of the food hall). It's not listed on their menu but they carry a canned, chilled Junmai sake that is pretty good and pairs well with the sushi. read more

One of Winter Garden's more upscale food choices is oddly located in a fairly ordinary booth in Plant Street Market. Norigami is Michelin recommended, but not starred, and is considered one of the best value Omakases in Florida. You'll need to make a reservation to get one of their 8 stools but you can always order pick up and eat at a market table. Chef David's sushi journey, their extended Omakase, takes you through tastes both mundane, popcorn cream, and extraordinary, Sea Urchin and Wagyu Beef. You will have favorite rolls, and lesser favorites, but at the end of your 90 minute reservation you will feel like you have accomplished something, as if at the end of a very good book combined with a satisfying fullness that only sushi can bring. read more

This place was sooo good. The nigiri was absolutely delish and fresh. The chefs were on point and so talkative. They made the experience super fun and enjoyable. I loved the atmosphere and the seating arrangements, the decor was simple yet very nice with all of the fine details. I really enjoyed the handrolls. My favorite nigiri was the toro belly! It was smooth and melts in your mouth! The uni was more fishy than usual but it was also very tasty. I loved the truffle salmon!! That was to die for!! I had to order more! The chefs let you order more if there's still time at the end. I was fortunate to order 3 extra pieces! Totally worth the price & everything about this experience is as worth it! I would definitely come back when I am in town. My only regret is that I didn't get the omakase experience!! 10 pieces for $60 that's not a bad deal at all. read more

Norigami is a sushi concept at Plant St Market in Winter Garden. My best friend took me here after we played some pickel ball at the Memorial Park super close by. They made reservations as this stall in Plant St Market only has about 8ish seats (if my memory serves me right.) To order, you choose what you want on the paper provided with your choice of fish/seafood as nigiri, sashimi or a temaki (handroll). For this visit, I ordered the Toro (fatty tuna) nigiri, King Salmon nigiri, Unagi (BBQ eel) temaki, and the Uni from Japan as a temaki, as well. Now I'm not usually an unagi gal, but I decided to give it a try since it was recommended. I'm glad I did because it was probably my favorite bite from this visit. The quality of each thing I ordered was top notch. My friend got the Uni from the West Coast (a bit cheaper in price) and we tried a bite of each other's to see if you could taste the difference and we definitely could. Each was good but the one from Hokkaido Japan was more creamy and lived up to its higher price point. The chefs were personable and the experience was overall great. If you're craving sushi and hand rolls in the Winter Garden area, make a reservation for Norigami! read more

Best way to describe Norigami... WOW! Best sushi experience I've ever had! If I could go back everyday I would.

One of the better quality to value omakases you can get in greater orlando. Note this would be an omakase in the traditional sense of nigri, handroll and a soup at the end, chef's choice. You'll find a beautiful selection of various fish, and I would highly recommend their standard omakase for your first time - 10 pieces of nigri, one handroll, and a miso soup to finish. Best way to eat it here is unadulterated - eat it how it's served, with ginger in between to refresh that palette. They excel at their white fish, and their scallop is out of this world. The name is also creative - I'm a sucker for creative, punny names. With the majority of their name being 'Origami', each of their sushi is served on a beautiful origami paper. Nori means seaweed in japanese, which isn't always utilized in their selection, but I appreciate the pun nonetheless. A point is docked for mainly two things - one, maybe since this restaurant is a stall in a food stall, they don't serve tap water. This is a bit jarring for us Americans as we don't really want to spend money on water. But if you're planning on getting a beer a few stores down anyways, they do partner with Crooked Can, and they'll bring your drink right to you. The other is their Toro (fatty tuna) is a bit hit or miss - sometimes, a bit chewy (not ideal), others, nice and buttery. They do source their toro from Mexico tuna, so not sure if that's a factor to quality, but in comparison to Edobody's toro, there's a difference. Overall, if I plan on being in winter garden, I tend to make an effort to make a reservation for this place. read more

A nice little gem of a sushi restaurant in the food hall in downtown WG. Reservation only! The food comes fast and they do a decent enough job preparing good sushi. One of the few places to offer a decently priced omakase! $65 for a 11 or 12 course sushi dining experience. The chef was kind of mad that day so it threw off the vibe. Not sure I'd return. read more

Great food and service. My husband I have been many times and never had a bad experience fresh and quality ingredients

Excellent sushi, truly at a top notch quality! I had visited Chef David when he started his omakase at Soupa Saiyan 3 and he did a magnificent job then. He excelled at delicately selecting prime fish that were noticeably very fresh. When he announced that he was opening up his own concept at a separate location, I was more than thrilled! Norigami is located in Plant Street Market in a cozy table setup that seats about 8 people. There is a menu of different fish that you can try as nigiri, sashimi, or a hand roll. And then there is also the chef's selection options. We ended up trying the nigiri selection as well as ordering a few additional items. I've said it before and I'll say it again, Chef David does not disappoint! The fresh was incredibly fresh, and you can notice the quality in flavor. The highlight for me was definitely the toro (fatty tuna), and I ended up ordering one more toro hand roll to cap off the meal! So good, it can be treated as the meal ending dessert! :P So happy to see this new concept and to get to try out their sushi. If it hasn't already been apparent... I will be coming back here again for more soon! read more

Just coming back on here to say that Chef David and team at Norigami just never fail to impress. A wonderful experience all around again, even during St Patty's day madness at Plant St Market. It's hard to pinpoint his magic, the rice is perfect texture and seasoned and the fish is so fresh and most comes straight from Japan. His toppings are carefully curated and thought out and do not sleep on the Toro Carpaccio which may be one of my fave dishes of all time. read more

Every piece was to die for. quality sushi! Chef Michael is super talented and kind. Will def be back.

Omakase -- a Japanese dinning experience that involves placing one's trust in the chef's culinary skills to create a personalized meal -- at Norigami is absolutely amazing. The Japanese term itself literally means " I leave it up to you" where the chef's has full range of control in showcasing his artwork through foods using the highest quality ingredients. Norigami is located inside Downtown Winter Garden's food hall across from Bento Asian food chain. Seating at Norigami are limited; therefore, it is imperative to made reservation a head of time. The atmosphere is always lively with the chef (s) sense of humor and personality...not to mentioned the livelihood of the food hall itself. The service is ultimately fast paced but it varies by what (or what kind of sushi) are the chefs making. This was my first time dining at Norigami and I for sure that it will not be last. read more

Wish I could put 10 stars for this one. This is the most affordable and best omakase style sushi spot in central Florida. Don't forget to get a caviar bump! read more

I can't rave enough about this place. My partner and I have gone here a handful of times now. We first celebrated our anniversary, but then proceeded to make it our traditional spot after every work trip I have - to celebrate me coming home. Customer Service: The chefs at Norigami never disappoint, they always make you feel special and cater to any needs that you might have. From the moment you sit down, to every interaction afterwards when hand making your sushi, they continue to always impress and make every experience and personal delight. Food: 10/10 I've literally gone on the radio before to state that this is my favorite spot for quality food overall. Everything MELTS in your mouth, with the flavors all complimenting one another. We always get the Omakase, which features a variety of sushi from rolls to hand rolls and a nice hot bowl of soup to finish. Overall I can't rave about this place enough. It'll continue to be our traditional spot for future "welcome home" dates. Ps. You must make a reservation, but it's never an issue getting a slotted time. read more

Came here to try their Omakase. Was not disappointed. Seating is countertop and quite limited. If you're coming for a date which some people were or a special occasion I recommend you make a reservation. Service was very attentive and I was allowed to order as much sushi as I wanted. Needless to say I was pretty full after 12 pieces and their fantastic miso soup. The pieces of fish were very generous and they cut up quite a large whole fish right in front of us. To note if you want alcohol apparently you need to order through an app and it comes from the bar down the room in the food hall. I wouldn't recommend this place for intimate dates since it's in a food hall and people are milling about but I would definitely come for the food. Price wise it's what you'd expect for sort of a bespoke Omakase experience. It'll be an expensive meal so be prepared! read more

Definitely worth the experience to eat at the bar. Such a fun experience with great food. The sushi practically just melts in your mouth and the flavors are unique. The chefs are super friendly and it's also a great plus that you can order beer and other drinks from nearby restaurants directly to your seat! Would love to go again if we were ever back in town read more

I was really excited to check out Norigami, as I had just moved to the area and was looking for some fresh and tasty sushi. Now, in my opinion, this is not your typical sushi restaurant - as it is located in Plant Street Market. My husband and I walked into Plant Street Market and noticed two chairs were available. Now, I would say this is likely not the norm, but it was 2pm on Saturday afternoon and I guess we just happened to get lucky. We sat down and quickly browsed the menu. I usually love to order a lot of sushi so I can try multiple things, but I couldn't believe my eyes at the cost of it. We ordered some edamame and 4 pieces of fish and the cost was high, in my opinion. Now I totally understand paying that for high quality fish, but to be honest - I left and had to spend more money for more food elsewhere. I will say the fish is definitely fresh and the staff was very nice. read more
