Nori Japan — Restaurant in Chesapeake

Nori Japan... was probably the first place I ever tried teriyaki chicken all the way back in 2003 or 2004. I was blown away and by high school I was a fixture there ordering the teriyaki chicken with double meat, on rice or noodle, with no veg probably two to three times a month until I moved away. Then every single time I'm back home the first place I stop is at the Chesapeake Square Mall and sure enough the familiar faces that have been working and owning Nori Japan for years are there to greet me, they still remember my order, and the teriyaki sauce is still my favorite in all of the world and I've had teriyaki chicken in places all over the world from Tokyo to Bangkok to hell London to Hollywood and still...

P.S. if yall could tell me what your teriyaki sauce recipe is since I live across the country now... I'd...

Have been eating here occasionally for over a decade. Best asian fast food in Virginia. I'm certain that this place is quite literally the ONLY reason Chesapeake Square Mall is still open.

Any review less than 5 stars CANNOT be trusted. You watch them cook the food right in front of you, they always ask if you want extra sauce (you do, trust me), and they are super friendly. In the words of their sample people, YUMMY YUMMY haha. Seriously though, please support this place so we...

First time trying this place, we got the chicken teriyaki and we’ll we were disappointed, while the chicken is good, the portion was very small, we ordered for pick up and once we got home and opened it the rice fills the container 90%, veggies are 6%, and chicken is only 4%. We got one without veggies and that one looked that same with the chicken. At this time they’re closing at 6pm and we ordered at 530. Idk if the closing time has anything to do with the portion sizing but for 9 dollars we spent on each of these tonight, we’ll probably travel to Virginia Beach...
