Can't wait to bring my bestie here once she's back in town, since she's also a fan of One Piece! TLDR: Great food + Great for Otaku's + Great Service = I will be back :) SN: only possible negative feedback from me, mentaiko udon was a bit salty for our liking

It literally melts in your mouth. Soft and tasty salmon, tuna, shrimp, and other fishes. Perfectly seared with a small, pickled jalapeño. We came for lunch and also tried the Myomi lunch set - big portions so come hungry! Perfectly crispy chicken katsu, delicious miso soup, Grouse Mountain sushi salad was also massive. We are definitely coming back and will try the dinner menu next!

It was fun to try at least once and the meat was good quality. We came here on a random afternoon in the middle of the week so there was practically no wait, but there was still a crowd.

The nigiri is an absolute 5/5 and a must-try for any true sushi lover. Engawa was unfortunately not on the menu, so we opted for something adventurous instead: ankimo (monkfish liver), and it really delivered. Perfect richness well balanced by the sauce and radish. While the unagi battera and the roll were more standard, the fish was stellar across the board. Everything was incredibly fresh, sizable, and came with a good amount of pre-added wasabi. Ordered a la carte nigiri: scallop, hamachi, chutoro, sea bream, hirame were all delicious. The marinated piece of bluefin with ginger adds a nice balance, though it wasn't my preference. Grilled fish was a tasty add on to diversify the spread at a really reasonable pricetag too! If you appreciate high-quality fish, you will love it here!

Although the price is quite high for only three pieces, there was scallop, ika, eel and salmon among other things. I really liked this roll with a great rice texture and ratio. Aburi Salmon Combo - three seared salmon nigiri which again has perfect rice despite being ready-made along with a salmon maki. Price again is high but everything was on point. Mini Bento Box - this was a great deal for under $10 with a smaller but sufficient amount of rice with a piece of chicken karaage, tempura, ajifry and some ground pork. Although it was quite small, one could be full on this small box and the variety is what I thrive on! Overall, a great place for grab and go sushi with a higher price tag and out farther from central Richmond but easily a place I'd go again!

The food is noticeably higher quality and you can tell there is much more care in their ingredients and taste profiles in their dishes. The sushi could be put a bit better together since the rice does crumble a bit, but overall it's still delicious. The wasabi they use is much more milder and a bit sweet, and not as harsh as some of the cheaper establishments here use, which I appreciated a lot!

I highly recommend getting the pork or beef course meals. Each meal came with kabocha/vegetables, miso soup, tofu, cabbage, and pickled daikon and carrot. Every part of the meal was so good. The pork was extremely flavorful and tender, and the beef had a very good flavor and was nice and thin. The side dishes were just as good as the main dishes. The miso soup was some of the best miso soup I've had, and the cabbage with the sesame dressing was so refreshing. The pickled daikon/carrot had a unique flavor, and the tofu might've been the best part. The sauce/soup that it was in had such good flavor and I could've probably had 100 more of those. The service was very good, the staff members were kind, helpful, and observant. They seemed like they genuinely wanted to make sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying their visit. The vibe of the place was very cute. It is a smaller place, but there's still a good amount of seating inside. The place had nice decorations and had a clean, simple, yet modern vibe. We definitely enjoyed Nobi Nobi and are sure you will too! The food was exceptional and so flavorful, and the prices were so reasonable! The staff are all so nice and the place is nice!

The menu contains a variety of rice combo dishes that you can select (pork, chicken, beef, fois gras, curry) and a tempura noodle set as well. Occasionally, they also have specials as well.

This is great for those who like variety and want to have a complete meal with all the food groups. My favourite is definitely the pickled daikon/carrot and the cabbage salad! The food is not too salty and the broth was perfectly seasoned for my palate. My boyfriend also ordered an espresso romano which I had never tried before. The foam on top was surprisingly refreshing with a tart aftertaste of lime. The prices were also very fair with most sets averaging around $19-20 before tax.
