Sushi lovers would enjoy a meal at West 28th Street’s KazuNori. The small eatery offers hand rolls with different fillings of fresh fish, wrapped in delicious seaweed. Order a la carte or pick up the 3, 4, 5, or 6 rolls set. The bay scallops, salmon and yellowtail rolls seem to be the highlight of the menu. With a self-service system and limited seating, this is not a place for large groups. However, you can order take-outs, enjoy a meal with a friend or grab a quick lunch by yourself here.
