    I thought I knew sushi until I had the Bluefin Otoro handroll. Now I know I've been living a lie. 😂 Wabi Nori, you’ve spoiled me for life. Nothing else will compare

    If you’re looking for a cozy place with amazing food, look no further. The Crispy Rice Spicy Tuna was an absolute dream. I’ll bring all my friends here next time

    Who knew Oyster Mushroom handrolls could be this good? I came for sushi, but this might be my new favorite. Wabi Nori, you’re full of surprises

    I came here starving, but after the 6 Handroll Set, I’m officially full and in love. The lobster roll? Chef’s kiss! I almost ordered a 7th roll, but I need to fit in my jeans tomorrow. 😂 Definitely coming back

    The quality of the ingredients at Wabi Nori is exceptional. The A5 Miyazaki Wagyu roll was a culinary masterpiece. Paired with the Sayuri Nigori sake, it created an unforgettable dining experience

    The Miso Soup paired with the Toro Toast was an exceptional start to my dinner. The richness of the soup complemented the delicacy of the Bluefin tuna. I’m definitely coming back.
