Really excellent New Year's lunch in the park! Didn't even mind that this wasn't as sit-down place. We pivoted, ordered two bento boxes, a roll and an appetizer, waiting very patiently as the friendly speedily prepared the order. And none of this 'no to-go soups' business that you see in too many Chinese restaurants when you do take out. Here, the soup, a pleasing miso with tiny cubes of tofu, were warm and flavorful.Order: Bento 1 was chicken teriyaki and California rolls; Bento 2 was Mixed Tempura and Spicy Tuna Rolls. Both served with fresh green salads and creamy miso dressing and the two soups. For me the teriyaki was a tad soft and not as crispy or slightly charred. Otherwise it was very good. The tempura was excellent --big shrimp or prawn piece, eggplant, carrots. broccoli. The spicy tuna rolls were clearly the star dish --prepared fresh and tasty with just the right amount of fiery ginger slivers and wasabi. The rolls were better than decent. And is it ok to state the not-so-obvious fact that the rice was abundant and super fluffy?We had not had Japanese in about six months and it was nice to be able to tuck into these remarkable flavors for the New Year. Now trying to set a date for a return visit. Prices were pretty fair, unlike some places in chi-chi towns like Walnut Creek or even Berkeley. Do not sleep on Nori Roll, set in a small strip mall on San Pablo Ave.

Nori Roll was extremely disappointing. We tried it for the first time over the weekend, and we were disappointed with almost every roll and item we ordered. Salmon and hamachi sashimi-- the slices of fish were cut SO thick. It's definitely not the way I enjoy my sashimi. We ordered the Angry bird, Fairytale yellowtail, CA roll and Dragon roll. All were disappointing. The crab in all of them were so HEAVY with mayo.We ordered the Unagi don and the unagi had bones in every single bite. We order unagi and unagi dons at other Japanese restaurants and never have they had this many bones. It just feels like Nori roll lacks the finesse and it very much impacts the quality and taste of their food. Won't be going back.

Good quality sushi. I appreciate how many different choices they offer at a very affordable price point. This is a to-go spot, so don't expect seating. I will be back to try more of their creative rolls!

Nori Roll is a tiny take-out gem of a sushi shop in a strip mall. They're efficient with orders- each time I've come in to order in person, it's ready to go within 10 minutes. We've been three times, trying specialty rolls, classic rolls, veggie maki (including sweet potato which is one of my new favorites), and pork ramen. Prices are very reasonable and there's usually easy parking.

The messiest and loose rolled sushi I have ever had. I tried to pick it up with chopstick and dip in soy and it would just fall apart before I even got to do the. Highly disappointed

Our go to takeout sushi place! It's no frills and the fish is always fresh. Ordering online and then coming to pick up is a breeze. There are so many different rolls to choose from and we've liked everything we've gotten so far. The rolls are big, yummy and filling. It's not necessarily traditional nor is it a fancy place but if you're looking for a delicious casual takeout sushi place - this is it!

I came in looking for delicious sushi and appetizers, and was not disappointed! Rolls were very fresh and good quality, but the real stars were the potstickers! They were the perfect mix of crispy and chewy with delicious filling.

A great little Japanese takeout restaurant. Service was quick. I was pleasantly surprised by the freshness of the fish. I ordered a chicken karaage, rainbow roll, salmon lover roll, and cherry blossom roll. Everything was really good and very reasonably priced. I will definitely come back.

Nori Roll is open again today after a hiatus of months off. I don't think there's any sushi restaurant like this where the prices are so reasonable and the food is well-made. They make basic sushi delicious here. The 49'ers roll used to be my favorite roll but today for lunch, the ingredients were uneven in my 49'ers roll. Some pieces had mostly artificial crab and other pieces had mostly avocado and all I could taste was the mayonnaise in the artificial crab mixture. 13.95 is a lot to pay for a big Califonia roll. In the future, I will stick to the bento boxes here with teriyaki salmon and Alaskan rolls with salmon and avocado.
