Me and my friend sat on the patio during happy hour. You definitely do not feel like you are in a strip mall when relaxing by the fountain and enjoying the view of McDowell Mountains! The service was outstanding and the Happy Hour menu is great! We had the seaweed salad...very fresh! I usually avoid the seaweed salad once I learned that it is often soaked in a high fructose corn syrup liquid. But not at Nori!!! It is made fresh! My friend had a mixed drink. I cannot remember the name (I posted a picture) but i had a sip and it was so tasty!! It was made with Asian lemons and local honey, garnished with a sprig of rosemary. I cannot remember the name of the sushi restaurant that previously occupied this space (which wasn't bad), but Nori is SO much better. We will definitely be back!
