We believe that the experience of eating hand rolls is truly something special and worthy of its own restaurant, so we created KazuNori — The Original Hand Roll Bar.® At KazuNori, our commitment to quality is unwavering, just as it is at SUGARFISH. We serve only the freshest fish, along with specially harvested seaweed, housemade sauces, and our signature warm rice. KazuNori is the first restaurant of its kind, and we think that eating one of our just-made hand rolls, with its crispy nori, warm rice, and delectable ingredients, will redefine what you think about sushi.

I ordered the $36 set menu + Sapporo (ordered some sake for some friends)
I arrived around 8 pm and got sat immediately. They were very attentive and I enjoyed the pace of when the next hand roll was being served. The set menu is a great idea if you want to explore. The lobster and crab were my fave so I ended up ordering extra of that + salmon sashimi afterwards.
This place is located inside The Hugh food hall. I had a hard time finding it but once I looped around I found the entrance to the hall by the subway stairs. Forgive me, I’m new to the city. Haha. Overall I had a great experience.

This is my 2nd time here, I love these hand rolls. They were so delicious. I choosing 6 hand roll set. They were including with Toro / Yellowtail/ Salmon/ Bay Scallops(my favorite)/Crab/ Lobster. They were so good and fresh. I was so full by the 4th one already but still excited for the rest 2. They take no reservation but people don’t spend too long there so the wait wasn’t that too bad. Staff is good service and food are running fast ! Good timing.
I would come back for sure.

This was my first time at this location while visiting New York City, and it came highly recommended by a few friends. It’s run by the same owners as Sugarfish, for anyone familiar with that spot in LA or here in NYC.
The menu is simple and easy to follow, with lots of hand roll options. I went with the six-roll combination to try a variety of flavors, and it did not disappoint for $36. They also offer three, four, and five-roll sets. Beer and sake are available too.
The wait was about 20 to 30 minutes when we arrived around 8 PM, with roughly 15 people ahead of us. It’s first come, first served, so expect a short wait, especially if you have a larger group. We had five people and got lucky, but smaller groups will likely be seated faster. The seating area is small, fitting around 20 people total, so ordering to-go is a good alternative.
The restaurant is inside an indoor food hall on the first floor of a building. It’s cozy and compact, but clean and welcoming. Staff were friendly, and I’d definitely come back next time I’m in New York.

Food was amazing!! First time trying this place. Not for a big group tho, this is good for dates or just 2 of you and ur friend catching up. Fast paced with the food service but a bit elbow to elbow with the other diners. I’m glad they had a bag or coat to hang below cause it was really intimate with other guests. Other than that food and vibe is immaculate Would come back for sure!

Ordered food to go: Salmon is cheaper shredded not solid pieces in rolls which I’ve only ever seen in gas station sushi. Rolls were loose and rice not firm. They have what they call “Americanized” sushi in hand rolls which really just confuses what you’re getting for the price. It works out to be $12 per normal 6 piece roll like you’d see in other restaurants. Paying more to get worse quality. Don’t get take out from here

I love these hand rolls. They were so delicious and satisfying. They are all counter seating so it isn’t recommended for a group as it hard to talk to each other. I ordered the chef special set that came is 6 pieces. I was so full by the 4th one. They take no reservation but people don’t spend too long there so the wait wasn’t that bad.

Kazu nori is good, it’s convenient, and it’s tasty. Love the wasabi, but the line gets really long here. Also I wish you didn’t have to eat on stools without backs, seatbacks would be nice to enjoy your meal more. One callout is that they’re making so many hand rolls so fast that their sushi rice is usually a bit warmer than other sushi places, but that’s not a bad thing

New York has many excellent restaurants, but this one was my favorite during our anniversary trip. The hand roll maki bar is very reasonably priced and tip-free. The staff provided excellent service without being overly formal. The nori was crunchy, the rice was warm, and the various smashed raw fish were delicious. The standout hand rolls were the lobster and bay scallop. If you don’t drink alcohol, I recommend the iced green tea.

The dine in sushi bar line was long, so I grabbed a to go box with the salmon, toro, crab, and NZ sea bream. All of the sushi was delicious, perfectly portioned, and was enough for lunch + dinner for me. I would definitely come here again for takeout and would try to time the arrival for dine in to avoid lines

Wow. Best hand rolls I have ever had.
Counter was a little tight for eating space.
