The food was amazing! You can order sushi by the piece or choose from 3 selections that have 5 pieces. They bring you nori in a box and then you use it to wrap your sushi. The sushi was so fresh, tasty, flavorful, Miami! Yumm!!! We finished with freshly baked sesame chocolate chip cookies. read more

I love Nami Nori and have been there a couple of times, always having a great experience with both the food and service. However, I'm writing this review to bring your attention to a situation that happened today at the Miami Design District location. Tomorrow is my wedding, and I came with my fiancé to celebrate this important upcoming moment in our lives. We arrived 12 minutes late to our reservation due to Formula 1 traffic for a 5:30 reservation. We got there around 5:42, thinking there would be a 15 minute grace period like in most restaurants. The blonde hostess (or possibly the supervisor on duty that night), Ulyana, met us at the door. She didn't say hello or offer any kind of greeting or smile. Instead, she said directly to my face, "Just so you know, we have a 10-minute grace period at our restaurant, not 15." The way she said it - the tone of her voice and her facial expression - was very rude!! She eventually seated us at a half-empty bar after a long wait while she clicked around on her notepad. She sat my boyfriend on a chair with at least three empty seats on each side. When he tried to move one seat to the left so staff wouldn't constantly pass right next to him, she loudly told him to stop and not sit without her guidance. We felt like guilty kids in front of a strict teacher, as if we had done something wrong or owed her something, given her very strict and formal tone. I came to this restaurant in a perfect mood- to have fun, relax, and celebrate before my big day - but this staff member completely ruined our mood for the entire evening I was very unpleasantly surprised by this kind of customer service ‼I felt tension the whole time and couldn't relax during dinner. You need to train your employee, Ulyana, on how to be friendly, what proper customer service looks like in a good restaurant, and how to work in a busy environment. We felt like we were at the cheap diner with this level of service, but never like in the good trendy restaurant Super rude, disrespectful, and unprofessional. I will not be coming back to your Miami location and would never recommend it to anyone unless, only to NYC's location read more

I had a great first experience at Nami Nori! I made a reservation for a saturday afternoon, got there a little bit earlier and me and my husband were seated at the sushi counter right away. The waiter and the chef were both very nice and attentive. We had Kirin and ordered the fries as an appetizer, then 4 temakis each. Everything we had was delicious, flavorful and super fresh. The nori was SO crunchy I was surprised! The place is also beautifully decorated and has a nice ambiance. Overall an amazing experience, and a more affordable option in the area. I will definitely be back soon! read more

The atmosphere is very clean, elegant and calm. Temakis are amazing, really fresh ingredients - I loved all of them salmon Serrano, maitake truffle, xo scallop, and had to get the Uni as well! For apps had the wasabi cucumber tataki, Japanese fried chicken, mushroom dip, spicy tuna dip, yellowtail ceviche - recommend all! Then dessert matcha cheesecake and churros! Staff was very attentive and huge plus everything is gluten free! read more

Located in the beautiful design district, it's always fun to walk around and explore the roaring art exhibits. The neighborhood is safe and has a few affordable parking garages. Nami Nori itself didn't have tok much outside signage, but once you find it there's a nice smallish interior with a beautiful designed sushi bar and an outside with a few tables. This place is fun, and a newer experience for me. You can chose a number of high quality hand rolls and then you "make" them yourself as a final touch. Prices aren't cheap, but the quality here was worth it. I loved the scallop hand roll the most, but honestly really enjoyed everything I ate. The cookies were also surprisingly good and perfectly baked. I enjoyed the cocktail I got and felt our server was very friendly, patient and capable. While our first order came out quick, the kitchen did seem to get backed up on our second round. I think just a one off though, and the staff handled the situation very gracefully. I look forward to trying this place again and sharing it with others! read more

Celebrity labels have gone too far: Kendall Jenner promotes a mid tequila, Guy Fieri pushes cigars, and now Pharrell Williams has rolls sushi?! I didn't know what to expect at Nami Nori, or Seaweed Wave, maybe staff in furry bowler hats and bossa nova covers of Neptune's classics, but reality was nothing like the fever dream in my head. Instead, imagine Tulum‑spa aesthetics: natural tones, soft lighting, and quiet deep‑house tracks that act as chatter-muting white noise. I booked via the Sapphire Reserve Exclusive Tables portal on OpenTable two weeks out, and the only available spots were sushi‑counter seats. These seats put you in front of all the chefy action, and your plates arrive the moment they're crafted, not to be confused with the walk‑in bar beside the hostess stand. There, your whole order arrives at once while you sample curiosities like a Japanese whiskey espresso martinis, Kagua Hefeweizen, or Echigo Flying IPA. Nami Nori's commitment to staying authentic and affordable in a neighborhood that's neither is genuinely commendable. "Affordable" is relative, of course, but two people with two appetizers, seven courses each, nonalcoholic drinks, and gratuity came to $150. I recommend the Signature Temaki Set and, shockingly, as a protein‑obsessed omnivore, the Vegan Set. The Signature set travels the globe: Hawaiian Tuna Poké, Mexican Spicy Salmon Serrano, and Thai‑inspired Crispy Coconut‑Curry Shrimp. The Vegan set hits even harder, with layers of flavors and textures you rarely see in plant‑based dishes: puffed‑rice‑wrapped Avo Toast with pickled beets and shaved carrots; toothsome Sweet Potato Tempura; and the most surprising, Cucumber‑Black Sesame, which delivers the juiciness of cucumber and the umami of toasted sesame, tricking your brain into thinking you're chewing simmered meat. Honestly, if Pharrell keeps dropping sushi hits this good, I won't complain as long as he doesn't follow it up with leche de tigre moisturizer or ceviche‑scented candles. For your final bite, go for the Ocean Trout Sashimi with shiso, daikon, and a drizzle of puréed scallions; it hits every flavor receptor like a precision strike. If you insist on dessert, order the crunch‑maxed Mochi Churros with lemon curd dipping sauce. read more

If I'm being completely honest, this is the best restaurant I have ever been to. 20/10, absolutely stellar food and excellent service. I'm honestly still in awe of how incredible each dish tasted. Every dish was plated beautifully and packed with flavor. Karla took great care of us and I loved how attentive the manager and team were. Someone was always stopping by to either check in, drop food, or to clear the table. If you haven't tried this place yet, get ready to be obsessed!!! read more

Found Nami Nori through Bilt Dining. Lunch reservations were easy to make online on OpenTable. This location is also very convenient in Design District. I checked in earlier than my reservation time and they were very accommodating and seated me right away. Nice atmosphere inside-- bright and airy, Japandi style with terrazzo countertops. I opted to order a la carte and got a hot green tea, salmon + avocado, xo scallop, and yellowtail + scallion temaki. All were yummy and met my expectations in terms of freshness, taste, and portions. Service was efficient and friendly although more on the "corporate" side (not necessarily a bad thing, as it's not a mom-and-pop establishment). Price was on par with what I was expecting. I had a quicker lunch (in and out in ~30 minutes), so this is a good spot if you're tight on time. I would come back again. read more

Nami Nori is a great spot for handrolls in the Design District. Came here with friends to enjoy some handrolls and it was in an ideal spot in the Design District, right across from one of the garages. It was super packed on the day we came so we had to park at the Museum garage down the street but it wasn't too far of a walk. We were able to grab a seat indoors with a reservation for 3 and got to order right away. The service was super friendly and quick. My friend and boyfriend each ordered the signature set which comes with the tuna poke, xo scallop, coconut shrimp, salmon serrano, and cucumber black sesame. This is a great set for the price and gives a good variety. Our favorites were the coconut shrimp, scallop, and, surprisingly, the cucumber black sesame! I ended up ordering just a variety to try so I got the xo scallop, toro scallion, salmon + cucumber, and the spicy crab dynamite. I really loved all of them and want to give some love to the spicy crab dynamite because it had a crunchy layer of ricer cracker on the nori. I loved the presentation of each handroll, with the protein/base of each roll on a stick and they give you a box of nori to place it on. They have directions on how to do this and it's super simple and fun. I also love this because it keeps the nori fresh for when you're ready to eat the handroll. One of my pet peeves is a soggy nori when eating handrolls so I thought this was super cute and clever for them to do. It was my first time having it like this! They also had a great selection of drinks that I wasn't able to drink this time around but would love to come back for it! Overall, a great spot and experience for handrolls! read more

Excellent sushi in Miami Design District - thank you, Nami Nori, for bringing it from NYC. It's a perfect place for a lunch in gorgeous outdoors setting. The service was impeccable (I didn't mind them adding an automatic 20% gratuity), the sushi was fresh and perfect rice flavor. The starter set consists of 5 "nigiri" (not really but best way to describe it) and was pretty filling. I'd def be back! read more

Finally made it to Nami Nori in Design District to meet with some friends I hadn't seen in many years and we all loved it! The food was delicious and incredibly fresh, and the combination of flavors was better than we all expected. I thought this would be one of those places that was overhyped but it definitely was not. The restaurant is small, but there are 2 bars where you can dine/drink. There is also a very nice lounge upstairs which I personally thought was over priced, but I will say the service both upstairs at the bar/lounge and downstairs in the main dining room are fantastic! The staff were attentive and patient while we debated on what to order, but they offered great suggestions on what to order & which dishes/drinks were most popular. The bar tender upstairs was very kind and welcoming. I arrived to the restaurant a bit early, so while I waited we struck up a conversation and it was a great vibe. Sometimes the employees at nice restaurants can be a bit snooty, but that was not the case here and everyone maintained their professionalism. Overall a 10/10 experience and I cannot wait to go back for more handrolls! read more

Went here for the Chase Sapphire Reserve credit and boy was I impressed with the selection of hand rolls and appetizers. Got the coconut shrimp, toro and scallion, crab dynamite, lobster, xo scallops hand rolls with the shishito peppers and salmon crudo. The shishito peppers were one of the best I've tried in any Japanese restaurant. Perfectly smoky and salted with a miso butter sauce that was delectable. Salmon crudo was above par with most I've tried - very balanced. Onto the hand rolls - standouts for me were the toro and scallion, xo scallion, and the lobster. All were great and definitely left feeling pretty filled. Coconut shrimp had a nice crunch and different taste profile that many would enjoy! Vibe inside of the restaurant was lovely. Had very approachable and refined staff playing Afro deep melodic house for an enjoyable dinner. Would definitely dine again!! read more

The decor might be 70s monotone chic and not catch your eye in the midst of Miamis vibrant art... but definitely stop in for a handmade sushi experience. And it is an experience. Tekmaki is served one at a time at the counter... letting you savor the flavors and texture. The vegan options are top notch, and there are some gems on the menu for those who are more adventurous (and a California roll for those who don't venture beyond grocery store flavor). The highlight for me was the ocean trout and yellow tail from the cold starters menu. Do t be afraid to go out of order, go back to page 1, or try a different drink pairing. Service can be a little chaotic when it's busy but always helpful and knowledgeable. read more

Really enjoyed this place. The signature hand roll set was great and had lots of variety. I was especially impressed that it stayed good even as a to-go order. They have great plastic packaging slips that keep the seaweed dry and crisp, which made a big difference. The mushroom dip was a pleasant surprise with great taste, a great portion, and very crunchy chips. The mochurros were amazing, with an amazing texture and really good citrus flavor. Overall, everything was well done, and even takeout held up better than expected. read more

10/10 we loved everything about this place location, ambience, plus food is just as incredible as their wait staff. Literally I have no complaints. One of the best servers I've ever had the pleasure of dining with, the only problem is, I forgot her name. She had such a great attitude, humor, and charisma; she served us in the patio. Drinks, Apps, mains, dessert all of it 100% would go again. Don't waste your time on the plethora of hand roll bars that are popping up in Miami. Just come here. read more

This place is brilliant! The service was some of the best I've experienced in Miami. If you sit at a table, they give you a box of nori. They've come up with a simple but smart way to keep the nori nice and crisp. Everything I ate was impressive, but my favorite was the lobster hand roll. read more

We sat outside for which had fans - nice touch. Inside was very light bright and I'd probably sit at the bar next time. Our server - forget his name but he said he was from Georgia was really nice and thoroughly explained the menu. Very knowledgeable of it and helpful he sold me on the truffle temaki and it was amazing - my favorite one. The ocean trout sashimi was divine the sauce had profound orange notes I could probably scoop that up with a spoon alone. Must try. The temakis were all very different. I really enjoyed each one and I appreciate the seamless instructions on how to place it in the nori. Recommend for lunch it's very light and you'll probably be hungry later. Added to my favorites list! read more

I went with a friend because of a credit card benefit that has this restaurant as one of the options. We sat at the bar because the reservation at the counter we had was still not available yet, which we didn't mind. We ordered a signature set, starter set, mushroom dip, and two other sushi pieces. Everything was delicious and tasted out of this world. Our bartender/server was Alonso and he gave great service. The hostess was really nice too. We had a memorable experience. Street and garage parking is available. read more

I had such high expectations for this place and was a bit let down. Overall, it is a great vibe inside with bar seating, outdoor patio, and regular tables. The servers were very friendly and helpful with what to order. The matcha margarita is probably my most favorite drink I've ever had. That leaves the food. I tried the crudo appetizer, tuna poke handroll, hamachi handroll, and scallop handroll with crispy rice on the outside. None of these items stood out to me and definitely lacked flavor. Soy sauce essential in making it anywhere close to flavorful. The ingredients were fresh but at the price you're paying you expect more. The ambiance, presentation of food, and drinks were all great though and if you don't care too much about the handrolls I would recommend. If wanting a good handroll for a better price there are other places like omakai handroll bar. Overall I think it just depends what vibe you want and how much you're willing to spend. While I will probably not be back here I did enjoy my experience. read more

Absolutely incredible. I've sat both inside and outside, and each space has its own amazing vibe. Everyone is so friendly, from the host to the bartender to the servers.

We tried Nami Nori in the Design District after visiting Dolce Gabbini museum and it's truly unique. Unlike other sushi restaurants, the food is served as open-style hand rolls instead of traditional rolls. Everything is fresh, creative, and meant to be eaten right away while the nori is crisp including imitation Krab. It's a lighter meal, so best to order a few and share. Stylish, lively atmosphere and a fun change from the usual sushi spots. read more

Service is awful--definitely a 1out of 5. I hate that so many places in Miami include the service charge/tip now, because it disincentivizes staff to even remotely act like they care about you as a customer. With that said, food is a 5 out of 5. Average should be a 3 but the food is that good, so I'll give it a 4. Next time I'd eat at the bar or get takeout so I don't have to deal with the servers. read more

It was good- not great! Sat easily, no reservation, around 5:30 on a Saturday. The chefs counter is a neat experience. When you sit down they let you know that you can only order the temaki in sets of five. The standouts were the xo scallop, toro scallion, and spicy lobster. Everything was tasty and quick. The portions were really small. For 5 temakis (like a small handroll), one cocktail, and one tuna dip app, we spent $120. The water was $10, because we said still instead of tap - our mistake. The cocktail was fine. Tip was included which is standard in miami now. I wouldn't come here hungry. Glad we tried it, I don't know if it would be on our list to come back to given all of the variety in this area of miami, nothing was memorable enough sadly. read more

Tuve la oportunidad de cenar en Nami Nori, un restaurante con una propuesta japonesa contemporánea en el corazón del Design District. El local es pequeño, de diseño minimalista y elegante, con una ambientación cuidadosamente pensada. Nuestra reservación fue a las 10:00 p.m., ya que no había disponibilidad en horarios anteriores. Al llegar puntualmente, fuimos informados por la anfitriona Gabriela --quien merece una mención especial por su amabilidad y profesionalismo-- que debíamos esperar unos minutos adicionales ya que la mesa aún no estaba disponible. La espera fue de aproximadamente 20 minutos, lo cual, aunque comprensible en ciertas circunstancias, debería ser gestionado de otra manera, especialmente tan cerca de la hora de cierre de la cocina. Una vez en la mesa, el mesonero James se acercó rápidamente para ofrecernos agua y advertirnos que debíamos pedir con urgencia, ya que la cocina cerraba a las 10:45 p.m. Comprendemos las políticas internas, pero considerando que la demora no fue por nuestra causa, solicitamos una mínima extensión de tiempo. Su respuesta fue tajante: "no". Ante esta situación, pedimos hablar con la gerente, Juliana, quien de manera más comprensiva nos animó a ordenar con tranquilidad. Aun así, la experiencia ya estaba marcada por una sensación de prisa innecesaria y una falta de hospitalidad coherente con el nivel del restaurante. Pasando a lo positivo: la carta de bebidas es limitada, en especial en vinos blancos --solo una opción de Chardonnay, algo sorprendente dado el perfil del lugar--, pero los cocteles sí estuvieron a la altura. La margarita de té verde fue deliciosa, al igual que el sake frío que acompañó la comida. La propuesta culinaria es original. Destaco entre los aperitivos, el tartar de atún, de textura sedosa y sabor impecable; una espuma de yuzu con delicado equilibrio ácido y dulce; y un miso soup con almejas realmente reconfortante. Sin embargo, el tempura fue decepcionante: una cobertura demasiado gruesa y saturada de aceite, lo cual contrasta con la ligereza esperada en una buena tempura. Los temaki-style rolls --presentación icónica del restaurante-- tienen buena ejecución, aunque hay poca diferenciación en sabor entre unos y otros. El pescado, aunque fresco, llega siempre en forma picada o molida, lo cual termina generando una experiencia gustativa algo monótona. Sería interesante encontrar mayor variedad de texturas, y conservar cortes más nobles en ciertas preparaciones. En resumen, la comida es sabrosa y visualmente cuidada, aunque el precio es elevado incluso para la zona. Entiendo que se paga también por la ubicación, pero en ese rango, el servicio debe ser impecable. Detalles como limpiar el puesto de un comensal con su propia servilleta de papel sin retirarla y reponerla, o la ausencia de seguimiento por parte de la gerencia en sala, son fallas que no deberían ocurrir en un restaurante de estas características. Conclusión: Nami Nori es un lugar visualmente hermoso con una propuesta culinaria fresca y creativa, ideal para quienes buscan una experiencia estética y moderna. Sin embargo, el servicio --excepto por la destacada labor de la host-- necesita mejorar para estar a la altura de su cocina y ubicación. Volvería, pero esperando una experiencia más coherente entre precio, servicio y propuesta gastronómica. read more

I'm surprised by the low reviews so far, but they mostly don't have anything to do with the food. I just had lunch here, did counter service, and I thoroughly enjoyed it and would come back. I saw another review that the price is high, but I actually disagree. I think this is a great deal for hand rolls / also think that the amount and quality of fish is better than what I expected at this price point. It's in the middle - I wasn't like this is the most insane bargain ever, but the pricing was very solid for what I got. Arguable that the scallop hand roll elsewhere would be closer to $20. Is this the most classic omakase / hand roll place ever? Not really, but I enjoyed everything that I had. I enjoyed the extra toppings and crunch on things. I did the signature temaki, and I would eat it again + I did add a domestic uni to my set. It was super clean, minimalist, staff was friendly, and food was really solid. Fast because it's a hand roll spot. Will be returning, and I hope these yelp reviews even out soon / they get their ops together more (even though it was great when I went). read more

Note-- 5 star for the service and food but this is a more casual eatery (still nice, just not luxe) so don't expect a 5 star atmosphere ... you've got people in shorts with their dogs even at dinner I feel like sushi restaurants in Miami are a dime a dozen, and some of them are all bark (looks), no bite (quality and taste)... nami nori in the miami design district is both bark and bite. Love the temaki concept (aren't many here in miami) and the different flavors in each temaki -- super unique yet not trying too hard which is actually a very fine line to toe. And the mochurros (mochi churros)... omg! I'm definitely glad we came for Miami spice because I generally do not order dessert and probably would not have ordered these if it wasn't included in Miami spice... there is a high chance I will be back just for these Service is great, the only odd thing about this place is the insanely hip-hop bass-y Music in the background. You can tell they're trying to align with what seems to be the design district vibes, but it could definitely Use a more chill acoustic background read more

Pretty minimalist space. It's a nice experience. Very good quality food. Everything made fresh to order, in front of you. Everything is small 2-bite handrolls. Mostly unusual types. They also have some appetizers. We had spicy tuna dip with homemade crackers. It was very tasty. But the waiter tells you right off it doesn't come with enough crackers and recommends getting an additional order. This place is very expensive and I honestly find it really obnoxious for them to do that. Just throw a couple more crackers on the plate. It really only needed like two more. Also I definitely recommend getting the temaki sets rather than picking your own 5 pieces. It's much less expensive. Overall, I'd say it was fine. Not amazing. I think this was a one and done. read more

Incredible Food Tarnished by Tumultuous Operations Having heard a lot about Nami Nori from New York, we decided to give it a try. A word of advice: reservations are highly recommended, as this place fills up quickly. The Food: Nami Nori's menu is simple but remarkable. From the kitchen, we tried the shishito peppers and mushroom dip--both were incredible. They were full of flavor, with unique ingredient combinations I hadn't seen before but that worked beautifully together. The real star of the menu, however, is the temaki. You can choose from preset menus for around $30 or build your own mix of 5 temakis, which typically costs $40 and up. Note that there's a 5-temaki minimum per order. We tried one preset menu and selected 5 custom rolls. The temakis stood out for their fresh fish and distinct ingredient pairings. While some combinations were innovative, the quality of the fish was the real highlight. Overall, I would rate the food 4.5 stars, especially considering the price. Expect to spend around $40-50 per person (excluding drinks). The Operations: Unfortunately, the operational side of things significantly marred the experience. While the servers were friendly, the entire process was chaotic from start to finish. We had reserved outdoor seating, but despite available tables, we were seated at the bar because other outdoor tables had "just been seated." The bar area was hectic--it took over 15 minutes for a server to take our drink order and even longer to place our food order. Water glasses were barely refilled, and our food took 30-40 minutes to arrive. It's clear that Nami Nori is still working out its operations. The current state of disorganization made the experience far less enjoyable than it could have been, overshadowing the otherwise incredible food. Final Thoughts: If Nami Nori can streamline its service and improve the overall dining experience, it has the potential to be a 5-star destination. I'll visit again in a few weeks and update this review accordingly. For now, the outstanding food deserves another try despite the rocky service. My Criteria: 5 stars: The best food I have ever had, or an excellent option given the price. 4 stars: Good food, a restaurant I look forward to trying again. 3 stars: Good food, a restaurant that I am indifferent to. 2 stars: Below average experience, will not go again. 1 star: This restaurant should be closed. read more
