    Paradise roll
    Kyle S.

    Great sushi in a convenient location. To enter, you have to walk past the sushi bar where the chefs stare at you. Sitting there to eat would probably be awkward with every patron passing behind you. We got the Paradise and the Hurricane rolls. The Paradise was good, but the Hurricane won hands down. Sweet and savory, crunchy and creamy, with a touch of spiciness, this was the complete package. Highly recommend. The bathroom is outside of the restaurant through a winding corridor of backrooms. It's unsettling, and then the restroom itself is lit in a sickly yellow. One of the motion-sensing faucets had its motion-sensor ripped out, and the sink drain looked like it had been dissolved in acid. Kinda weird!

    When you walk in, you can see the gorgeous fresh fish at the sushi bar and three chefs making wonderful food. The menu has pages of sushi ( and Sake, beer & wine ) for a very wide variety of costs. Affordable to luxury. The service is the best! It's a very comfortable, clean, pretty restaurant and always has a respectable crowd in there.

    Really enjoyed the experience my friend and I had here for an evening dinner. Parking downtown was a built busy but that isn't the restaurant's fault. I like the vibe inside. Our server was very friendly. We got the crab rangoons and I did not like them. They seemed just to be cream cheese, but not much crab, or onion. Wish they would have been better because they looked great. We also got the standard edamame, asahi tower (which I highly recommend), the seared salmon roll, and a tuna roll that I can't remember the name of. The sushi was fresh and very good. It is a bit more price wise, but I really enjoyed it. Would definitely go back.

    Delicious! My companion and I stopped by after reading good reviews. The food came out fast and was fantastic. It felt very fresh. I have never had a roll rolled in cucumber, so I thought that was quite fun!

    Best dumpling ever Goyalicious

    Perfect dumpling crunch, sashimi fresh, buttery, salmon amazing, rice perfection, staff super friendly :)

    Came for lunch on a weekend. Street parking was pretty easy to find. This is a cozy restaurant in downtown Olympia. There's a sushi bar and booth tables. Service is attentive and friendly. We got 3 rolls and a salad to share. We also got the calamari rings but the squid was tough. The salad was a good portion with tuna and avocado cubes. The seaweed salad on top was nice to integrate into the rest of the greens. The rolls were very tasty. The fish tasted fresh. The presentation was nice, too! Price was pretty standard for average sushi places nowadays. Including a large hot sake, we spent $100 for lunch for two adults.

    Bluefin Hawaiian Roll and *Samurai Roll
    Mel S.

    The bluefin Hawaiian roll touched my soul! Haha but seriously it's my favorite sushi roll I've ever had. The mango drizzle is stunning and delicious. Ambiance of this place is calming and perfect for an evening out. Service was on point. Easy 5 stars from me.

    Olympian Roll

    Fish was fresh and soo delicious, and the service was very friendly. Our food came out fast as well even though it was a little busy. I found some of the sides in my box to be underwhelming (not saying they were bad though). Cute place with comfortable and somewhat intimate seating. Would definitely come back next time I'm in Olympia and craving sushi.

    Beautiful and tasty chirashi don (vegetable tempura in the back)

    I'm very been here many times and I get Chirashi don every time. They never disappoint!

    The last time I was here it was in 2021, and I almost forgot this place, but thanks to Yelp's recommendations, it reminded me of this nice place. This place deserves a fresh comment This place gets 5 stars due to the exceptionally fresh food taste. There are very few sushi places that make good sushi, and the ingredients are fresh. The server Mira is exceptional, friendly, and attentive. Ambiance is casual and family oriented, and a clean establishment. I would recommend everyone who enjoys sushi to come here and enjoy the food and Mira's friendliness while she takes your order and serves you as if you are family.

    1 person sashimi plate + sunomono With Octopus

    If you are from local, or you are like me, don't care "contemporary" style and looking look for more authentic Japanese food. Please consider Asahi Sushi. (This place is so far my favorite in Olympia/ Lacey areas) From my observation, I guess the owner/ sushi chefs and kitchen chefs are either Korean or trained in Korean way. But don't take the idea wrong. If you go to Korean owned Japanese sashimi places, their sashimi are always good quality with thick pieces. I ordered 1 person / small sashimi order, it came out really good. I had 100% satisfaction. I also ordered Hamachi Kama (grilled yellowtail collar), it came out good, as well, just the presentation is different from Japanese style, but again, it didn't matter, because the quality and quantity were all good. Got chicken Karaage for my kiddo, but it didn't taste like regular chicken karaage, and we ended up packing it home. I enjoyed Takosu (octopus salad), but the restaurant named "sunomono with octopus". It came out really sunomono with 3 pieces of octopus. I shouldn't complain, but the salad/ cucumbers were not even sunomono. It was vinegar dressing, I guess. Little disappointed. Overall, the food quality is good. If you are craving sashimis like I did, please try Asahi Sushi's sashimi platers, you will think it's worthy. One thing sounds odd to me. When I ordered regular sashimi plate, it came out with Miso soup. Funny thing is, I didn't see tofu or wakame seaweeds in the soup. The waitresses ( I couldn't believe and checked with 2 waitresses) told me with tofu only for to-go miso soup. But WHY?? To-go doesn't have to pay tips, but I PAID TIPS WHEN DINING IN. No clue about the idea, but miso soup with only white miso flavor with a few green onions were floating on the surface, I don't really understand. Parking can be difficult in downtown Olympia. You'd better reserve at least 1.25 hours of parking during lunch time. And thanks sushi chefs for the yummy raw fishes. (Will update in the future for more dishes)

    Our family thoroughly enjoys Nori Sushi and Teriyaki! We are always treated so well here, as if we…read moreare their family or close friends. The restaurant is super clean, warm and inviting. Tonight, we did an impromptu pop-in as my husband's physician ordered to increase fish and seafood to 3 times per week. Looks like we'll be enjoying more Nori then, YAY!! I just wish we lived a little closer. Tonight, we ordered Crunch California, Picante, Big Mike, and Black Widow sushi rolls, along with Gyoza and Crispy Crab Rangoons to share family style. Ooh my tummy is rumbling just thinking about all of the yummy goodness soon to come! We are meeting up with our brother and sister to share. I highly recommend Nori for a casual lunch or dinner date, or double or triple date. We love their sushi, their entrees, noodles and rice dishes, and their soups. Who am I kidding? Every menu item we have partaken in, has been delightfully enjoyable! Give them a try just once, and I can bet confidently, you will be coming back time and time again.

    My husband and I stopped by around 11:15 AM, right after they opened, since we were shopping for…read moreshoes next door at DSW and got hungry. I consider myself a bit of a sushi connoisseur (my husband just calls me "bougie" lol), so I figured we'd give this place a try since it was convenient and a sushi place for me to try. When we walked in, it was completely empty and there was a sign up at the entrance mentioning they were hiring servers. The restaurant seemed spacious but maybe it felt that way because all the tables were unoccupied. It took a few seconds before someone came out, but the girl who helped us ended up being the only saving grace of the entire experience. She was super sweet, told us we could sit anywhere, brought menus right away, and was on top of everything: drinks, appetizer, sushi, clearing plates. She was honestly the only person we interacted with the whole time. I did end up going to the register to pay after our meal, since she got busy once more people came in, but she handled everything she could really well. Unfortunately, the food didn't live up to the service. It was simply mediocre. The shrimp tempura tasted undercooked (I could still taste the batter smh). My husband got the Red Dragon roll and I got the Big Mike. He asked for no cucumber and they were accommodating. Regarding portion sizes, they're generous, and I can see how that might appeal to the general palate. I like that the rolls were cut nicely too, where the rolls were a little thinner than your standard piece, so they were easy to eat. The torched salmon and eel were probably the best parts of what I ordered. But overall, the quality felt pretty average. The rice was lacking flavor and kind of just tasted like plain filler. Our total came out to about $57 before tip, and honestly, it didn't feel worth it. Most rolls averaged $19, but they tasted more like something you'd expect at a cheaper spot. I've had similar sushi before that I'd consider more of a budget option (not amazing, but decent for the price). This sushi was passable but tasted more like $15 for a roll.. Just subpar for my standards. I think what made it more disappointing is that when I go out for sushi, I am expecting something better than what I could make at home (and yes, I have made sushi before with sashimi-grade fish, sushi rice, etc.). It is convenient to have someone cook for you, and good sushi is supposed to feel like an extraordinary experience. That's why I dine out at sushi restaurants but this just didn't hit the spot. Overall, amazing service, but the food was pretty underwhelming for the price.
