Nori Sushi & Teriyaki — Restaurant in Sumas

My wife and I drove up from Anacortes to explore the area around Sumas and, on the basis of Google reviews, chose to have lunch at Nori Sushi & Teriyaki. She ordered yakisoba with chicken, and I ordered a couple of appetizers--egg rolls and gyoza. The food was well prepared, excellently seasoned, and, in a word, delicious. And as others have reported, the portions are quite generous! We both came away with our hunger amply satisfied and my wife with enough left over yakisoba for another meal.

The best part of our experience, however, was the unexpected pleasure of meeting and chatting with the owners, two of the nicest people one could ever hope to encounter. Yong deals with the customers and is quite personable and easy to talk to. His wife Li (I'm not sure of this spelling) does the cooking. We may well have been the last lunch customers for the day since it was nearly 2 pm when we arrived, so after preparing our meals, Li was able to come out of the kitchen to welcome us. Yong's English is very good indeed, but Li needs help from time to time from him. But that doesn't matter. She is such a genuinely sweet person; good will and the desire to please emanate from her and make her slight language barrier insignificant. Li and my wife hugged as we parted, and we drove away from one of the very best restaurant experiences that we've ever had. We look forward...

Sadly it was going to be a 1st time visit, the owner lady was outside when we arrived. I asked her if they were open and she said yes they're open come in. So as we proceeded to go in, the male cook /owner comes running to the door practically pushing me and my daughter out saying " no no no no no no, we close we close, then the lady owner argued with him in her language and he yelled saying NO NO WE CLOSED, and mind you there were 3 people sitting eating in there. This was at 330pm and it was quite insulting and bad behaviour for the owner as we were going there for the 1st time. Once we left, i see the sign saying now open. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL, RUDE AND BORDERLINE RACIST VIBE FROM THE MALE OWNER from his horrible manners and behaviour. This was my 1st and last time. NO THANKS, i ll give my business to a business who gives a damn about treating customers with respect!!!!!!HORRIBLE...

My wife and I love this restaurant. All the food has been exceptional, especially the generous bento boxes which are overflowing with mouth watering food. Prices are very fair. We can actually afford to eat here regularly. These days only a small number of establishments fall into this category while so many others have become unaffordable for us. The sushi is excellent and my wife loved the Pho which was served super hot in a double walled insulated bowl. The owners are very kind and wonderful people. I don't recall ever feeling so welcome in a restaurant, like we were something special which I assure you we are not. I look forward to many evenings out in Sumas enjoying the awesome food and even...
