Nori Presto

Their sushi and yakisoba is to die for! We come here all the time for California rolls (not sushi I know) and have tried bits and pieces of others by have yet to really dig in. Their bubble tea is pretty good, but nothing special in my opinion. Overall I would definitely recommend this place.

So I’ve given this place three good tries. The food is what you would expect, but the service has always seemed like they were having a bad day. The lady consistently over charges me. I’ve done math based on the prices on the wall/​the prices on the menu plus 9.5 percent for tax and no matter how I work it out it seems about 5 – 8 dollars more than it should be.
The last time I decided to sit down and dine in. Apparently they don’t serve water unless you buy it in a 16 oz bottle. I was seriously irked by this little thing. Most restaurants will at least give you water. I won’t be back. There are too many really good teriyaki/​sushi places out there to waste time with a place who only sees you as a dollar sign walking through the door.

Not very busy, first and last time. The Las Vegas Roll was so disappointing. Only eel, avocado, and cucumber with deep fry. That is not correct, and it was mostly rice. The batter was heavy and it was hard to keep down. The gyoza was good, not very filled either. See a trend. I wouldn’t recommend going back unless you like carb filled meals.

Their pricing is sometimes inconsistent. I like shrimp tempura rolls with cream cheese in them; this isn’t a regular menu item, so they usually charge me extra for this; I am fine with paying extra, but the price they give me varies. I don’t like that. However, they make this particular roll so well that I put up with it. It’s very good.
I have tried some of their other menu items, but they weren’t very memorable. Their teriyaki is okay, but not the best in the area.

Not that great. This place has been hit and miss for me. And this time I found a hair in my salad. Yuck!

I’ve eaten at most the teriyaki places in mukilteo, this one had become my favorite, I usually get the lunch specials, great teriyaki, gyoza are large and delicious. Will make this my regular spot.

When I was working in Mukilteo, this became my go-​to place for a lunch I could depend on. Meats are never dry or overcooked, always tender and tasty. Vegetables are cooked perfectly, never overdone. Sauces are flavorful, and tailored to the dish. Teriyaki prawns for example seemed to have a lighter sauce, well balanced to the taste of the prawns. I tried several other teriyaki places in the area, but none measured up to the freshness of ingredients and quality of cooking. Wish there was a place this good near where I live!

I have to admit I’m a bit of a teriyaki junkie I’ve been to most in the lynwood/​mukilteo/​everret area. And this one rates pretty high but not my favorite. They cooked the chicken perfectly and it was really white meat just like how I like it, also presentation and service was not bad at all. However, I was say miaykos teriyaki down the street has better sauces and overall teriyaki. This being said nori presto was still very good and not a bad place to grab some teriyaki!

Food had good flavor but I felt the cashier lady gouged me on the price. I ordered 2 large chicken/​beef combo and she charged me $ 3.50 extra so the total for each went from $ 8.50 to $ 12. Honestly, when you order a combo, you are not getting as much as the single meat item. So to take the $ 1.75 large order surcharge and double it is ridiculous. This left a bad taste in my month and will make me think twice before returning… unless I’m really desperate but I will never order the large combo again. The $ 7 extra charge was enough for another entrée!

We used to go here a lot because they have great sushi! Yesterday, we were told to hurry up with our order because she had other customers to attend to. Very disappointed.

I’m torn about how many stars to give. The food was really good, BUT there was hair in my food… not just a strand, but a big knot of hair. GROSS!!!
Teriyaki chicken was tasty. Wife had tofu yakisoba with a big knot of hair. Also ordered some California rolls on the side. Rolls tasted good, but consisted of mostly rice.
All in all, it was a decent experience. The only put off was the big knot of hair obviously. Will give this place another chance. Hope I won’t find hair in my food next time.

Generous portions. Great food friendly service. A+

My favorite teriyaki. Very courteous owners and the food is terrific whatever you order. Large helpings too. Hot tea is free. Brian

This is a rock-​solid yaki joint in Mukilteo. There’s a small dining room and a big to-​go business. It’s the usual yaki layout, right down to the cooler full of bottles of pops and Snapples and whatnots.
The yaki itself is pretty good – juicy enough, spicy enough. They offer the brown rice option, but not the steamed veggie option. They do, though, offer the kimchi option, which not too many other places can match. It was pretty mild; not too tart, not too spicy. Kind of a Costco kimchi, you might say. But it’s still cool that they offer it.

Nickel and dime me for sauce? Last trip here!

One of my top 3 teriyaki places, the prices & portions are a great deal and they are super fast & efficient as well as very clean! I love the chicken & beef teriyaki combo. They get busy some nights so I recommend calling in ahead your order which is what I did, and didn’t have to wait since it was ready when promised =)
P. S. I saw a mexican working in the kitchen in the back and hope he gets paid decently if you know what i mean

Mmmm this teriyaki,
Was much worth the walkie,
And I can hardly talky,
because I’m so full.

I don’t live in Mukilteo. My parents have moved here since I left home and they don’t eat sushi so I had no idea where to go and they couldn’t help me out. They rarely dare to venture further with cuisine than the Azteca down the block. However, I needed (and I mean NEEDED) sushi so I found myself driving up and down the speedway looking for a place that had a «Sushi» sign in the window. Just as I was about to give up after 20 minutes I found Nori Presto.
When I first pulled up I was worried that they might have accidentally put the «Sushi» sign up without meaning to because they had pictures of everything on the menu posted on the exterior windows and around the restaurant but none of the pictures were of sushi. (On a side note, it reminded me of this time I went to a place called «Grandy’s Country Cobbler [yes, ‘Grandy’s, not Granny’s’]» and when I didn’t see cobbler on the menu I asked the waitress what kind of cobbler they had and I kid you not she replied with «cobbler? We don’t have cobbler here hun» with one of those «you must be from out of town» attitudes. Clearly she had forgotten the name of the place she worked at so I politely turned to the cover of the menu and pointed out that cobbler was indeed one of the 3 words that comprised the name of the restaurant. She then proceeded to snuff and walk away) Back to the point, as I was about the panic that there was no sushi here, I noticed a sushi menu on the wall but unfortunately none of the rolls had descriptions and the girl seemed a little unsure of herself when I asked her to describe some of the ones I hadn’t heard of.
So ANYWAY, I ordered a shrimp tempura roll and a rainbow roll for a total of about $ 18. Both are staples in the sushi world and I figured they were pretty hard to mess up. I eat a lot of sushi back home and although I wouldn’t call myself a sushi snob or anything, I’ll admit that 75% of the time when I’m out of town and I try a new sushi place, I don’t like it. That being said, there are 3 places where I live that I LOVE and couldn’t live without so it’s not like I’m impossible to please, I’ve just maybe been a little spoiled by the great sushi selection in my back yard.
The first thing I noticed when the food was delivered was that there weren’t any sauces drizzled on the rolls. The rainbow roll seemingly always comes with some sort of orange or tan or sticky see-​thru brown-​ish sauce to dip the roll in but not this time. The sauce is what MAKES the rainbow roll. I mean, sure the fresh salmon, crab and avocado are delicious but the flavors really explode when paired with the right sauces. So at first glance Nori Presto and I were already off on the wrong foot.
Second (who am I kidding, I should have said ninth, this review has been going on FOREVER) the tempura roll had a strange flavor. It was hard to put my finger on it and it’s definitely possible that all tempura rolls have this strange flavor and I’ve never noticed before because of all the SAUCES (did I mention there was no sauce?) that normally drench the roll. But my instincts tell me that this strange flavor is in fact not a trademark of the tempura roll but in fact a secret addition to the recipe by our friends here on the Mukilteo speedway.
I must say, however, that the service was extremely friendly and quick and the place was very clean. I refuse to give a place less than 3 stars if I haven’t been there at least 3 times and tried something new each time. I have another month here in Mukilteo so I am definitely going to try it out again. Maybe I’ll try the bento next time. So for those of you still awake after this Stephen King-​esque novella, stay tuned for future updates!

This is mine and my sons favorite teriyaki place ever!
The owners are such nice people and the service is fast and wonderful never a bad experience ever. They do not hide behind a big cloth to cook and the food is delicious and hearty servings. I love how I can always count on good food and a lot of it. My wife is a triathlon coach who lives a strict lifestyle calls herself a Nutritionist and she «Loves» this place! If the owners of Nori read this review one thing Thank You…

Pretty good teriyaki joint in strip mall location. I picked up a couple bento specials and a taro bubble tea.
The teriyaki chicken was good. It wasn’t spectacular or anything… but still tasty. The sushi rolls that came with it were very good and fresh. There was also shrimp tempura which was decent (but then again, anything that is deep fried will probably taste good).
The taro bubble tea was «ok.» The tapioca wasn’t soft and that’s a pet peeve of mine.
The one thing that did spark my interest was the extensive sushi menu they have posted on the wall. I would definitely like to go back to try that and see how it is. The small preview I tasted in the bento special was good enough that I would like to try more.
