Noma Sushi

Features creative sushi chefs who craft amazing custom dishes.

Noma Sushi leaves room for both straightforward fish selections and playful specialty rolls, making it appealing when sushi preferences differ around the table. Noma Sushi at 152 South Boulevard in San Mateo offers nigiri, sashimi and an extensive selection of creative rolls. The namesake Noma Roll brings together spicy tuna and salmon with additional fish, tobiko, jalapeños and crunch, while the Mango Spider combines soft-shell crab with avocado, crab and mango. Baked and fried rolls add another set of textures, including salmon-topped Lion King and scallop-topped Bay Island preparations. Cold starters include albacore tataki, yellowtail carpaccio with jalapeño and garlic ponzu, and cucumber sunomono. Individual sushi and sashimi choices span salmon, yellowtail, bluefin tuna, scallop and other seafood, with omakase and combination categories for diners who prefer an assortment. Rice dishes, noodles and vegetarian rolls broaden the menu. Noma's range makes it possible to plan a San Mateo Japanese meal around straightforward fish selections or more elaborate rolls with sauces, fruit and crisp toppings.
