"I recently had a takeout experience at Nori Japanese and Thai on Clark Rd in Sarasota, and I must say it left me with mixed feelings. While there were certain aspects of the meal that I enjoyed, there were also elements that left me disappointed. Upon receiving my order, the first thing that caught my attention was the sushi. Unfortunately, the initial impression was not a positive one. The fish used for the sushi did not look or smell fresh; all three types of fish had a slimy texture that immediately raised concerns about their quality. Despite the short time it took for me to get from the restaurant to my eating location, the condition of the fish was off-putting and gave me reservations about its freshness. On a more positive note, the Bento Box that I ordered did offer some variety, and there were components of the meal that I found enjoyable. The California roll was a highlight, with its pleasing combination of flavors and textures. Additionally, the Chicken Teriyaki and rice were well-prepared and satisfying. These components of the meal were certainly redeeming factors that showcased the potential for quality dishes at Nori Japanese and Thai. The service and the ease of the takeout experience were also commendable. The staff was friendly and efficient, ensuring that my order was ready in a timely manner and that I encountered no issues during the process. However, it was the quality of the sushi that ultimately shaped my overall impression of the meal. The unappealing condition of the fish detracted from what could have been a more positive dining experience. As someone who values the freshness and quality of ingredients, the disappointment I felt in this aspect makes it unlikely that I will return to Nori Japanese and Thai specifically for sushi. In conclusion, my experience at Nori Japanese and Thai on Clark Rd in Sarasota left me with mixed feelings. While there were elements of the meal that I enjoyed, such as the Chicken Teriyaki, California roll, and rice, the condition of the fish used for the sushi was a significant drawback. The slimy texture and lack of freshness detracted from what could have been a more satisfying meal. The service and takeout process were positives, but the subpar quality of the sushi is likely to prevent me from returning for sushi in the future."

"The food, presentation, and service were all amazing!!! We had the Crab Rangoon to start which had a great filling ratio and the Rangoon was fried to crunchy perfection! We followed that up with the Volcano, J.B Tempura, and Cheesy Shrimp rolls- we loved them all and couldn't choose our favorite!! We will be back and definitely recommend Nori!"
