KazuNori: The Original Hand Roll Bar

This place tops all. Fish is incredibly fresh. Hands down the best hand rolls I have ever eaten. Nice quaint atmosphere with square bar seating. Favorites were toro, salmon, scallop, and yellowtail hand rolls. Both the albacore and salmon sashimi were excellent as well. Was full when we walked in but was extremely quick to sit down and eat. Reasonably priced as well, there’s an automatic 16% service fee but it’s a non tipping restaurant so they don’t allow you to tip. Can’t wait to return

My son and I really enjoyed our dinner here. The hand rolls come out fast. We love that the rice was hot and the fish was cold and the seaweed was crunchy. We wish we knew that you could trade out some of the set hand roll options prior to ordering. The restaurant doesn’t sit many people. But we were able to get seated fast.

You have to try! Great sushi! Very nice customer service and clean space. Because of the layout we couldn’t eat inside (we have a baby) so we take out and ate on our B&B. I got a say that I never saw in USA so much care on a delivery. They gave us everything we need, the food was impeccable and super beautiful, tasteful. They think about everything to you have a great experience even in home.

Nice, clean, trendy spot right near Santa Monica boardwalk. Fresh hand rolls made to order on the spot right in front of you with seating similar to omakase format/bar style seating. You fill out your order on a piece of paper, marking what and how many of each you want. Can’t go wrong with their set options. Decent size hand rolls that come out just on time as you’re about to finish your roll. Can be a bit of a wait to get in but worth the wait and it’s usually short since it’s a fast style service

I love KazuNori in Santa Monica. It’s in a great location, and I enjoy their fresh hand rolls prepared right in front of you. The quality is always fresh, with great choices on the menu, and the staff are attentive. The restaurant is always clean, has a nice ambience, and also offers good sake.
