Cherry’s Nagani

The owner is charming. Presentation nice. This place is great for people who like rolls. Rolls are not to my taste, like all-​in pizzas. The fish had parts that stuck in my teeth. This would not happen in a roll. I admit it. Sushi snob.

Wonderful, friendly service. Extremely generous with the fish too! Definitely coming back.

This is a tiny place with only 4 small tables and 4 bar stools. It is run by a very friendly woman and her daughter. We sat on the bar stools and watched our sushi being made. It was really delicious. We were traveling from California to Washington and this place is right off the freeway. We wanted interesting, good, non-​chain ethnic food and felt very lucky to find this place in a mini-​mall. Very clean, too.

Pretty good sushi place is a bit small bite nice owner’s that serve and cook/​prepare food but 1 thing it’s a bit pricey.

Tiny little place run by mom & pop. Super sweet couple who make all of it to order. Only a few tables, so don’t be in a rush to eat!
Very fair prices and decent sushi. Quaint décor, nothing very fancy.

First off, this restaurant claims to be over 4 stars which I’m just dumbfounded by because it’s not even close to it. I came on a Friday evening. Super small inside and the Ac wasn’t on, I was extremely I and my brother asked for some iced waters. The lady whom I think was the owner said that the faucet doesn’t run good water and it’s «not good» so she offered us some bottled water for $ 1. Which I quickly said no thanks. WHAT RESTURANT DOESNT SERVE FREE WATER OR HAVE A RUNNING FAUCET!?! We waited and waited finally got our sushi. I asked which was which they didn’t even know. The spicy mayo was not. It was a pile of mayo with a splash of soy sauce. Got 3 rolls for $ 26! Never again will I return to this place. Wasn’t satisfied, wasn’t full and very disappointed.

Didn’t expect to find a really great sushi place this easy and Keizer Oregon. Carrie is is amazing all fresh food easy to tell the cooked and the vegetarian from the raw. The shrimp Dragon was amazing.

It’s definitely an authentic flavor. I’ve traveled many times to Japan, and this place is the closest to the real thing in this area. The service is very warm and homey.

Extremely nice wife and husband team. Cherry is an absolute sweetheart. The eggflower soup is housemade on the spot, which is very delectable.
But coming from California the sushi is not up to par. Poorly executed and constructed rolls. The smoked salmon Pbilly Roll was topped with burnt sesame seeds which were awesomly over powering in a bad way. Also the smelt roe was so frozen it almosts hurts to eat.
All in all we left unsatisfied and disappointed.
Will we find good sushi here in Oregon?
P. S. no free water.

Was ok. Grew up in LA. Have been to many sushi places. This was a mom and pop for sure. People were super friendly. Food was fresh small to average portion. Nothing exciting. Momoji and creps, on silverton rd. much better. My two cents.

Best sushi is the Salem area. It is family run. Love the care the owners put into the food. Small location creates a great environment.

Great sushi, one of my favorite places to go for sushi. Only thing that I don’t like is they aren’t open on Sundays.

Incredible, fresh, high quality sushi. Very authentic offerings. Small seating area, amazing service.
This place feels like the Cheers of Sushi restaurants. Every time we go in, Cherry knows us by name, and always asks how we are.
Sweet family, local business, excellent food.

When we arrived, we were grumpy about unfruitful house hunting, but this little sushi place and the wonderful owners turned all that around. We left happy and full. Good, flavorful sushi. Outstanding service. A guaranteed cure for the grumps.

Good sushi in Salem area
Clean little place
Service is good. Owner is very enthusiastic about her sushi
Pictures help a lot in selections
Keep it up
Will be back

It’s a very small place, but thats the beauty of it. It’s very homey and the owners are very kind and helpful. The restaurant was empty when I arrived and they were very welcoming, they pointed out their favorites on their menu and engaged in very pleasant conversation.
I decided to order a curry rice bowl, a spicy tuna roll and the well known California roll. The curry was very delicious. I would say their portion was rather small so it seemed a bit pricey for the bowl. The sushi was very fresh, I can tell they used higher quality ingredients, not only in the texture but in the taste as well.
I would recommend this place for a nice evening out. Bringing a date here seems like a good idea because the owners are so friendly they can help out if stuck in an uncomfortable moment. Lol.

We loved this quite clean place. The service was excellent and the food was terrific. The tuna maki and red dragon were favorites

Small shop, very clean and pleasant. Owner and husband run the place, and she’s very friendly and enthusiastic. If you’re new to sushi, she is happy to teach you what you need to know.
There’s a good selection of options. We had the rainbow roll (it was awesome), hand rolls (one ahi, one salmon), sashimi (ahi, salmon, yellowtail, and one more variety, served with a bit of rice on the side), and nigiri plate. All of them tasty, well made, and pretty.
There are pictures of all the items on the wall, which is helpful. The menu clearly marks which items are cooked, and which are vegetarian.
Highly recommended — one of the best restaurants in Salem!

I was welcomed very warmly upon my first step in. I chose a seat by their menu board that had some pictures of their popular rolls and combos.
Prices are excellent and the food is fresh. The crab is real crab! So delicious. I went for the Keizer roll with crab, next time I need to order it spicey. Not quite filling so I went for the Unagi Caterpillar, fresh and light. Very refreshing taste.
They appear limited on their spicey rolls, but the fresh everything earns them a four :)

Don’t order to go. I went it once and had a good experience, prices were a little high but I enjoyed supporting a family business. So I wanted to return.
I called in a to go order of 1 rainbow roll and 1 California hand roll — both with no sauces or sesame seeds. I even repeated my order a few times to ensure he wrote it down properly and he said he got it. When I got there I paid for my food while they finished making it ($ 17). I opened up my box and it was 1 rainbow roll (correct) and 1 California roll with sesame seeds (not a hand roll, and had seeds). I pointed out the mistake and she basically repeatedly told me that her husband didnt know English very well and must have misheard me, but that she would not give me my money back or make me the correct item. She kept telling me if I wanted the hand roll I would have to pay another $ 12 for them to make it. We went in circles about this until I got so frustrated I just left. I wanted her to either refund the money, or make me what I actually ordered.
She basically admitted they probably took the order wrong, but refused to fix their mistake in any shape or form unless I was gonna pay another $ 12.
Bummer.
