Description

edit

The restaurant specializes in Edomae-style sushi and features a design influenced by Kyoto’s Sukiya architecture.[5] The menu includes offerings such as amadai (tilefish) with shiso flowers and gingko nuts, chutoro (medium fatty tuna) from Miyazaki, and bafun uni (Hokkaido sea urchin).[6] Notable dishes include anago (saltwater eel) smoked over bamboo leaves and finished with a house-made tsume sauce. Sushi Noz provides two beverage pairing options: the Signature Pairing and the Prestige Pairing.[7][8]

History

edit

Sushi Noz was founded by Chef Nozomu Abe, a native of Hokkaido, Japan in 2018. After training in Sapporo and Tokyo under master chefs, Chef Noz moved to New York in 2007, where he worked at the renowned Sushiden before opening Sushi Noz in 2018.

The restaurant reflects the style of Kyoto temples, featuring Sukiya architecture. Its centerpiece is a 200-year-old Hinoki wood sushi counter, complemented by various cedar wood elements joined without nails and a traditional hinoki ice chest for fish preservation.[9]
