We got to Nori Nori between lunch and dinner. They're closed then. I wandered inside anyway and put our name on the list, checked out the bathroom and hid from the Georgia heat in the air-conditioned lobby.
I'm a super impatient waiter so I checked out the restroom, took some pictures, and played a little pokemon.
The restaurant itself is in a mini-mall parking area. It's located directly next door to an Italian Restaraunt that I hope to be checking out very soon named Aldo's. It was super tempting to just pop over there during the wait. I was pretty dang glad I did not.
From the outside, expectations were dim. I LOVE LOVE LOVE Asian food though, and it's so very rare that my family is willing to indulge my Asian-Fusion craving so I stuck it out!
I didn't get it on film, though I'm sure someone here has, the employees all lined up and chanted something right as they opened for seating. It was kind of cool.
We were first on the list, and therefore the first table seated. Our waiter was phenomenal! He recommended the Korean ribs and they did not disappoint. The table itself was pretty dang small for three people, and we're not small people!
More importantly, though, all three of us agreed that our server made us feel like it was okay to eat 23 plates of food if we wanted to. It was fine to hate things, try things, and enjoy things! I loved that part!
Try the green tea iced cream! I had no intention of trying it, it was, however, as my son insisted, as he brought me a bowl, light, bright, and super tasty!
I left SUPER full, and still wanting to go back for more! There are still LOTS of things I didn't even try! Then again, there were plenty of things I tried more than once too ;).
I loved how clean the restaurant was. The food was fresh and plentiful, and our waiter, he was on top of those refills, actually, we generally had a glass and a half of soda.
By the way, UDON is not for me. Nope.
I took a few little videos too. If I ever learn TikTok maybe I'll post them there, or perhaps on Facebook.
