The entrance is a warm hand roll sushi
đŁ Matsunori Handroll Bar: Bostonâs Hottest Soft-Opening Sushi SpotâWhere Scallops and Wagyu Steal the Show This tiny spot is in soft opening, and wowâitâs already a standout. The menuâs small (check the last pic), but every roll hits. I donât splurge on $100+ sushi often (maybe 10 spots total in the U.S.), but this? Easily the best Iâve hadâwith (per person) under $100. The details matter: Warm, melt-in-your-mouth rice; slightly salty nori (seaweed) that elevates every bite. Itâs clear they care about the basicsâand it shows. đ„ The Must-Orders (No Exceptions) Scallop Handroll: 6 stars. My absolute favorite. The scallop is sweet, tender, and so freshâit melts on your tongue. Light, clean, and perfect. Do not leave without ordering this. Wagyu + Truffle Salt: 5.5 stars. Another non-negotiable. The wagyu is served warm (close to body temperature), making it feel luxurious as it hits your mouth. Bonus: A hint of wasabi in the rice adds a subtle kick. Rich, earthy, and unforgettable. Miso Black Cod: 5 stars. Buttery, flaky cod glazed in sweet-savory miso. Topped with wasabi-infused roe and a dollop of pumpkin purĂ©eâcreamy, bright, and totally unique. Snow Crab Handroll: 5 stars. Cold, sweet crab leg meat (so fresh, I briefly thought it was imitation crabâthatâs how good it is). Light and refreshing, with a delicate brininess. đ„ą Still Great, But Overshadowed Salmon with Avocado: 4.5 stars. The first roll we tried, and it wowed usâcreamy avocado, fatty salmon, perfect rice. But next to the scallop and wagyu? Itâs just very good. Spicy Tuna: 4 stars. Creative twist: They use pumpkin crunch instead of tempura bits, adding a nutty sweetness. Itâs solid, but lacks the âwowâ factor of the other rolls. đĄ The Fine Print No reservationsâyouâll have to wait (the space is tiny, so lines build fast). Portions are small, but the quality justifies it. Come hungry, but ready to savor. đ Verdict Matsunori is a must-visitâeven in soft opening. Itâs proof that great sushi doesnât need a huge menu; it just needs fresh fish, perfect rice, and attention to detail. đ Matsunori Handroll Bar: Bostonâs new sushi obsessionâworth every minute of the wait. #BostonSushi #SoftOpening #FoodieFinds
