Noa in Bristol, City of - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

It's order online from the table on your phone, but the food has never disappointed us and we have visited Noa over 10 times in the last 2 years 🧡🙏

Their Harumaki's are UNREAL! Some of the best spring rolls I've ever had. I'd say some meals are a bit overpriced but it's in Clifton so you'd expect restaurants to be overpriced. Nonetheless, it was still nice.

The food was delicious, I had the Chicken Udon Soup. The staff was really lovely, only two of them in the restaurant. The atmosphere was nice and calm. And although we came in at an odd time we were given choice and served quickly. Exactly the thing my family and I needed, we all loved it!

Good quality sashimi and sushi. Donburi does not taste authentic - more of stir fry. Service is not bad, but would have wanted more attentiveness since the restaurant was not even halfway full when we were there. On the plus side food came in a timely manner.

Fantastic food and lovely staff, definitely eating here again!

Friendly and helpful service. Will definitely come again.

Best sushi in Bristol. Lovely experience to dine in and to take-away. The sashimi is always fresh and plentiful. Will always love Noa!

Staff are nice ! Seafood fried udon is a must try ! Seafood friend Udon- 8/10 Eel Roll - 7/10 Miso Chicken Ramen - 6/10

Delicious food in a relaxing atmosphere. Great service. Would definitely go again.

Very nice fresh and quality tasty food. But one minus for service; extra charge automatically 10% no body say to us about servis charge extra on the end and beginning order. So dear waitress good to be say for beginning; Dear customers we information for extra service charge or ask on the end about tips. Thanks for nice dinner.

Ordered via Deliveroo, have to say the salmon sashimi and scallop sashimi were excellent and I will certainly be ordering again. The surf clams were slightly tasteless and one I had was gritty, but glad to say there were no nasty surprises the next day. The tempura crab and squid was good too but nothing special.

This restaurant has been my first ever try today and I must say BLIMEY, the food is absolutely wonderful! Down to the simple things like the packaging of the food, the quality and the smell is SUBLIME! My best friend is a regular customer and has recommended for me to try the food today, and I must say that I am in no way disappointed! The presentation and taste is Michelin star quality! Thank you very much Noa!

Good sushi and sashimi with a fair price in Clifton. Will buy again.

Great place, great food, great staff

We’ve only ordered takeaway from Noa but it’s quickly become our favourite place for Japanese food. We always order sushi and shashimi and the quality and flavour is excellent but without a Soho price tag. There are a lot of decent Japanese restaurants in Bristol and for us this has to rate as one of the best. Try a dragon roll, wakami roll, spiced roll and mixed shashimi. Their crispy chicken dishes are fire too and they often have promotions if you spend a certain amount. Love you Noa!

I’ve ordered the crispy beef teriyaki with rice and tuna maki roll. Overall the food tastes good. However, I believe some improvements can be made such as making the teriyaki sauce less sweet as the sugar was way too much in the sauce. The tuna didn’t taste too fresh as well.

Warm welcome. The setting was well laid out and very clean. The staff were efficient and polite. Ordering was on line and simple to use. We were very impressed with the IT. The food was excellent, menu selection was not huge but well balanced, fresh , fast and delivered with care and of course delicious. Fair cost . Definitely will be returning to this little restaurant.

Lovely staff lovely quiet authentic restaurant amazing food and a great price :)

My family and I love this restaurant, best Japanese we've found in Bristol. Though it's not too expensive, we can't afford to eat out as often as we'd like but still go whenever we can find an excuse. Particular favourite dishes are their chicken karaage, chicken teriyaki, katsu curry and agedashi tofu, but we've enjoyed everything we've tried here, so you can't really go wrong.

We were here on a Monday night for a special occasion. It was quite quiet at the time but the atmosphere was good and the service was great. The food was delicious and fresh. It's not cheap but normal prices for a Japanese restaurant in the area - and totally worth it. We will definitely return!

Very very good Japanese food, very alike Japanese food.

Very authentic Japanese food, would recommend to anyone come to Bristol who are looking for good quality, worth for money authentic Japanese food! 😍

Amazing food, fair prices, dog friendly would definitely recommend

Top rated sushi. Eat in or Deliveroo. Some of the best in Bristol.

Great service WONDERFUL FOOD worth every penny

It's a wonderful restaurant. The food is always fresh and is really delicious!!!

Decent place. The sushi and sashimi were good.

Very well priced food, which was served super quick. The temaki and maki were excellent but I managed to get a fried noodle instead of a ramen that I wanted. Maybe my fault but the ordering app doesn't make it very clear.

We had some fabulous sushi here.

Good food. Quiet on bank holiday Sunday. Could do with some low background music.

A pleasant sushi restaurant within Clifton village. It has plenty of seating, though situated underground so slightly dark. Order food within the restraint by app, plenty of options and tasty food too.

Lovely little Japanese space, the food was great and they had lovely staff who helped us order lovely food, i got got some avacado+salmon maki rolls and the beef teriyaki, sharing a lime and coconut cheese cake. Will be sure to come back for the lunch time bento box.

We always come back because the service is friendly and fast, the food is good (tempura especially, when compared to other places) and our kids love freshly-prepared sushi and sashimi! Some of the chairs feel quite wobbly, so we switch if we get one of those. The food menu is varied enough that there's plenty of options depending on our mood. Soft drinks offering is more limited, with a number of items always out of stock.

Excellent food, great service. I felt in Japan.

It tastes good, the fish is fresh, and the combination is excellent!

I went there after reading all the positive google reviews, and it was disappointing to say the least... I don’t base my review on the fact the place is ran by chinese and not japanese people, but only by judging the food quality and taste. None of the sushi and rolls dishes we ordered was fresh: frankly it all looked and tasted like ready made stuff bought from a wholesaler and just served out of the box. Ramen was underwhelming, no egg, no bamboo shoots, no sea weed, just some broth and noodles with a couple slices of boiled chicken breast. I could easily cook something better at home (and I don’t know how to cook ramen); from the many ramen bowls I ate in my life, this was by far the worst one. This disappointing experience made me wonder if there was a change of owners since the last reviews, because I really don’t understand the high rating… or maybe because I lived in Asia for 15 years and traveled many times to Japan, I have an idea of how good japanese food tastes.

The best sushi I've had in Bristol! Thank you very much!

Went with a group and the QR code ordering process was easy. Service and food was fabulous. The portion sizes are perfect for the price!

Really high quality sushi for great prices. We love coming here!

AMAZING The best sushi I have ever eaten I can’t help myself from returning

The food is really good but due to them prioritising Deliveroo over restaurant customers l, the service can be very slow. Prepare to wait and often have to chase for drinks and some food items took a while or didn’t show up. It is a real shame as the food is actually good, but the churn of Deliveroo drivers and the priority of them over customers , it just isn’t worth coming in :-(

One of our favourite sushi place in Bristol. Food quality’s good , like the variety of the menu . Friendly staff.

Service - the lady server was polite and helpful, no communication issues at all. I told her I could not use the QR code and she manually took our order instead without a reservation. Order waiting was fair. Food - good quality and full of umami, from the miso soup to every single content and detail of our bento box. Miso soup was remarkably satisfying - hot and fresh and flavorful. We wanted to ask for more! The sashimis and the maki are superb. The tempura was so crunchy, freshly cooked, and stimulating. The makis have this distinct nice flavor inside. Mango and avocado maybe? Super like it. Price - i think they are especially priced, but could be pricey for some Location -it's right in Clifton. Be mindful when entering the establishment, as there is a 4 level steps going down before you reach the door. Toilet - toilet is good (my wife told me), it comes with a nappy changing bassinet. Was a bit cold inside as the window was kept open. The men's room is okay. Ambience - there were not a lot of people inside, so good for us as we came with our baby who was on a pram. Homey and cozy feeling inside.

Food was excellent quality but there was zero atmosphere and felt very cold & clinical. Will try again as the food was so good.

Food was really lovely and good value. Staff as pleasant as they all were, just could not cope with a large group (30 of us) they shouldn't take large bookings if they can't deal with it. Very slow service, waitresses got muddled with orders. We stood waiting to pay for at least 15mins wouldn't let us pay until whole table were ready to pay. Dislike the having to order by QR code. However the beauty of that is it does tell you how much your individual order was, all the more reason payment should have been easy. Parking is VERY difficult in the area, though obviously not the restuarants fault but it is off putting.

We had a late lunch here last month. Ordered wakame salad, takoyaki, beef donburi, a couple plates of sushi rolls, and matcha ice cream for dessert. Everything was decent and the service was excellent.

Good prices and good service. Good amount of food. Must go

Love this restaurant, food is fresh and super tasty. My new favourite Sushi restaurant we will be back soon.

Great food but very slow service.

Food was lovely. Very friendly and promped service.

Very nice sushi and great service. Would definitely recommend.

Friend's words - "That was the best prawn tempura I have ever had."

Great selection, clever way of ordering food (though reliant on a smart phone). Sushi, wakame salad and tempura were really good.

Quality of the fish is the best I ever had here in Bristol. Simply AMAZING

Awful! Restaurant was empty and waitress was insistent we used online ordering despite the fact we were the only cusomters, their restaurant is in a blackspot and their wifi didnt work. Left and went to a place round the corner, so many better choices in the area

It’s a hidden gem in Bristol. The quality of the food was amazing! (Portions might be a bit bigger tho)! 🥰

This hidden gem is definitely worth a visit. Outstanding sushi - rice cooked to perfection, flavours and presentation spot on. Cute arts on the walls, super service and splendid selection of everything. Honest and authentic experience. Will definitely be back!

I ordered as a takeaway. Quite tasty, good variety of rolls to choose from, I like that you can get a half size roll as well. I had spicy tuna roll and crunch salmon roll and both were great. I also had the gyoza which I really liked as well.

A very friendly place, easy and quick to order using QR codes. The food is really delicious. We all loved it.

Amazing food and incredibly friendly service . I would definitely recommend this place to friends and family

During covid we were forced to go to Clifton instead of zanzibar and to make the experience on par we committed to go to the best restaurants in the area. Noa ended up on our radar thanks to a friends recommendation and we came here twice in a single week. The food was absolutely incredible. The highlight was the dragon roll, I must have eaten four of them over the course of a week. An unpresuming Japanese restaurant in a romantic part of town and hands down the best Japanese restaurant I have been to in the last 10 years. Untold thanks to the kitchen staff.

The staff were lovely, the food came promptly and was so delicious!

Very good, very fresh. Very caring staff. Great place to recommend.

Bad culinary cosplay! Overpriced and low quality Chinese impression of Japanese food. Ordering is via a clunky app you have to get on their WiFi to use. Spicy tuna temaki was lacking in tuna and instead stuffed with rice and sad salad, the spicy being brought by big globs of sriracha. Crispy beef teriyaki was OK but big chunky greasy veg that came with was unappetising. Didn't come with rice but was offered rice which turned out to be £2.70 for a small bowl when the bill came. Used to be so good but quality has vastly dropped in the intervening years

Least authentic Japanese food in Bristol. Very overpriced and highly disappointing. The "fried" chicken udon noodles were a flavourless sloppy mess with boiled chicken. Vegetable tempura was OK.

Fantastic, authentic Japanese food - looked and tasted amazing. Very friendly staff and good service. Good atmosphere and food came quickly

Very nice team running a busy Saturday night. Excellent food.

Almost every other Japanese restaurant I have been too, has been a haven of minimalist calm and serenity. This is the exception - clutter describes it quite well. Like Wetherspoons, there is table service via an app. This works very well after one puts in the correct wi-fi address whicis incorrectly promulgated everywhere - this, dear reader, hopefully, has been corrected by now. No complaints about the food though - as authentic as it could possibly be. Many previous reviewers have made issue with the imposed 10% service charge. I too prefer to contribute this independently when I see fit, but this alone will not inhibit further visits.

Really tasty food. Felt quite authentic, even down to the blaring K-pop! 😂

Great food and very good portions. Loved it. I was craving for vegetarian sushi and we had Veggie platter, spicy veggie roll, verde veggie spring roll, veggie wakamame roll and miso soup

Great food and friendly service.

Sushi is ok. The lady in her 50’s who I think is the owner claimed she does not get paid and all she receives from the owner in salary is the service charge. I asked for it to be taken off the bill and was told the owner will be angry with her and not pay her. It can not be removed from bill apparently as that is what covers staff costs and napkins 🤷‍♂️. Will report as illegal business practices going on according to staff.

Usually fresh sashimi but not always. Ridiculous service fee added at the end despite it being self service ordering with an app

Thank you lots. I have fallen in love with sushi 🍣 😍

Lovely sushi and a great experience.

Veg set was really really good!!!!!!!

Amazing food and really great service too!

Great food and service. The website ordering bit by bit to the table is fun.

Customer service was not that good. Food was okay.

Best sushi that I’ve had in the UK!

Expensive, but worth it, the rice in the Nigiri was a bit too tight making it very dense other, very tasty

Amazing food. Friendly staff. Nice atmosphere. Would recommend.

Order takeaway from Noa nearly every week. I think the best sushi in bristol. salmon is always good quality and soft shell crab rolls come with a decent amount of crab and sauce. Never visited the restaurant.

Minimum spend £15 on card. Was refused lunch because I didn’t have any cash on me. Not great service.

Delicious food, kind waitress 😊

Ordering is a little confusing as the app doesn't seem to show you what's been ordered, although the food is great

As you walk in, the restaurant does look authentic and Inviting. Ordering takes place through a link, food preperation does not take long. Even baby changes tables are present. We did NOT try sushi. Plates clearly strive for quality over quantity, yet to quality was not amazing to begin with. I ordered the cheapest main - teriyaki tofu - slab of runny tofu with a single bite of salad. Got a handful of rice with an invisible charge of 2.70£. Total of 10£, marking this as one of the most disappointing plates, for such price, I've ever had. Upon finishing, we asked to spilt the bill - waitress looked absolutely clueless and we ended up paying half of the bill, even tho we only ordered 3 out of 9 items on the table. So, after paying 35£ for 2 cheapest mains and water - would not recommend. We left hungry and shocked. Definitely better options all over the area.

Highly overpriced, inauthentic. You're better off cooking Japanese food at home (the tempura was good though, the rest is pretty meh)

From the photos online it looks like a nice place, in reality the restaurant is not nice and there is a stench that I cannot define, but not pleasant. The coke zero we ordered didn't taste like coke and I have no idea what it was but I'm pretty sure it wasn't that drink because I drink it every day and I know what it tastes like. We had to order with the QR code even though the waitress was standing in front of us and we were in trouble. The sushi was mediocre and very expensive despite not being good. I would not go back and if you like authentic Japanese food this is not the place for you. I'm sorry because the waitresses were nice but that's the only positive.

Went all out and wasn't disappointed. Best so far that we've tried 👍

Amazing place to try good sushi!

Strange ordering situation. Food was OK, not great. Very eclectic surroundings, chairs were uncomfortable.

Kind and fast service. Tasty food and good portions. Would definitely recommend. Nice cosy atmosphere with music.

Honestly, the best and most authentic Japanese cooking in Bristol by a long shot

Amazing quality and delicious sushi! We ended up going twice in a row! Friendly and helpful staff as well.

Everything is very good, the only thing is that they charge you 10% of the service charge and there is almost no customer service, everything is ordered by mobile phone and they only serve you.

We ordered a take away bento box and ramen. Really horrible unfortunately. Was super greasy, the ramen tasted like a very cheap chow mein, the bento box was more like sweet and sour Chinese. Not up to scratch at all.

Great service and tasty food. Disappointment came from the coca cola bottles which tasted like soda water....

Food was fantastic, we had an array of sushi.

The best Japanese food you can find in Bristol definitely worth the visit very friendly staff
