Our talented head chef is Kim, who we are proud to say has over ten years of experience as a chef.

Nori Teriyaki is set apart from other
Asian
or vegan restaurants in the area because it combines the two in a delicious, innovative, and healthy way. It is largely unheard of for a restaurant in the Mukilteo area to offer such an extensive menu that includes plant-based options, meaning that we serve a greater population of our community than other restaurants. Our meticulous recipe-creating process, ingredients selection, and active adjustments to customer feedback make us a traditional restaurant with original twists according to what our customers say they want!
Locally Owned
As a small business, we have the liberty to be completely original and responsive to the community’s needs. This means that you will receive a level of customer service and communication that is simply not possible at chain fast-food places or restaurants owned by bigger corporations. Our passion is for the food and ingredients themselves, making food that we are proud of, and successfully serving the community that we ourselves live in. This means that we welcome whatever feedback a customer has, big or small, as a means to improve our business and your dining experience. If we do not exceed your expectations the first time, let us know what you need and we will do our best to accommodate you.
Experience
Our founder’s family values are a cornerstone of our
restaurant philosophy. Where other restaurants focus on numbers, we seek to create dining
experiences that your friends and family will remember for years to come.
