Nori Thai and Sushi Restaurant: Authentic Thai Cuisine and Fresh Sushi in Birmingham

Delicious food with very short wait times. Our lunches came with either a ginger salad or a soup, and we ordered purple sweet potato French fries as an appetizer. I was very happy with the quality of the fresh salad, and my daughter enjoyed her soup. The avocado and cashews paired well with Massaman chicken curry. The dining area was beautiful, clean, and quiet. Silverware was provided with chopsticks available on request. On the way out, we paused by the saltwater aquarium and found a small crab hiding in the anemones. Fun experience—I’d like to eat here again.

Great service! The best Pad Thai in Birmingham. The coconut soup is really good and hits that same comfort soup itch as the lemon chicken soup from Taziki's. Really cool aquarium too. I could watch it for an hour.

Really inviting space. Went with two friends on a Thurs and had ~5 min wait on a table. The slightly slow speed of service was overcompensated by the friendliness of workers. We weren’t in a rush anyways, and the kind/funny service was a great addition to our time. I try panang curry at every thai spot, and this one takes the cake. Spice level was amazing, thick flavorful curry, and great large portion of chicken and veggies. Had leftovers for lunch the next day. Potstickers and crab angels for appetizer were quick and filling. Coconut tofu soup amazing as well. We tried a lemon drop martini and a cosmo and were impressed by the artistic decor on the glass rims that just made it extra special. Will be coming back, most likely even within the next week.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely love this place. The sushi is consistently fresh and delicious, and the Thai dishes are just as good — the pad Thai and curries are full of flavor and always hit the spot. Portions are generous, prices are reasonable, and the atmosphere is cozy and welcoming. The staff is friendly and attentive, which makes the whole experience even better. Easily one of my go-to spots for sushi and Thai food. Highly recommend!

I had lunch at this restaurant yesterday, and one time previously with a friend who likes it so much that he eats there at least once a week. The food is delicious. for a starter I initially ordered Seafood Dynamite, but the server said it was no longer on the menu because they couldn’t get one or more of the ingredients. So I settled for the Spring Roll, and I was so glad I did. It was the best I have ever had, crispy on the outside and delicious on the inside. I also ordered the Nori Roll (sushi); it was very good. Then SpringRoll so good that I the place in order for them. My friend ordered a meat dish that he said was delicious. It was more than he could eat and he brought some home. The owner himself waited our table and he was super nice. So was everyone else that we talked to. If you want to keep up with sports, there are several very large TVs around the restaurant. I was very impressed with the place in general and would highly recommend it.

We had a great experience at Nori Thai and Sushi. Everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The sushi was excellent, and the Thai dishes were comforting and full of authentic taste. The restaurant has a relaxed, cozy atmosphere, and the staff was welcoming and attentive throughout our visit. Portions were generous and the prices were very reasonable. We’ll definitely be coming back and recommending this place to friends and family.

We decided to drive up one Sunday afternoon and give it a try! The entrance is alittle confusing, there’s one for the restaurant and a separate one for take out - just make sure to read the signs when you get there! We had no wait and were immediately seated when we got there. The restaurant was very clean and the staff was very attentive. We decided to do the pot stickers for an appetizer and they were really good! For lunch we got the chicken fried rice and the hibachi chicken. Both meals were excellent, the portions were good, the price was great, and they both tasted really good (and both were freshly made)! This is now one of our favorite Thai places! We will definitely be coming back in the future! (If you’re looking for a good dessert place after you eat, Bendy’s ice cream isn’t far and is a delicious choice)!

Food is consistently fantastic but service can be spotty. Tonight, they were understaffed with only two servers on the floor. Our appetizer hit the table and we had no silverware or napkins. After five minutes I found my own. After an hour, our sushi entrees hit the table and we have no soy cups or chopsticks. We asked the waitress for them, she walked off to pack to go orders. After another five minutes, I wandered around the restaurant to find our own supplies. I seriously like this restaurant but their poor service will actively dissuade repeat business.
