Noda Restaurant

Located on Lake just past T-Pumps. The restaurant is small bit quaint with several tables and sushi bar seating. Staff are attentive and helpful. However there were only 2 waitstaff available when I was there and they appeared very busy. One more floor staff member would have been useful. Sushi was fresh and quality was fair. Pricing is reasonable for food and beverages. Seemed like a lot of regular diners and the staff treated them very well. Overall not a bad sushi restaurant on Lake in Pasadena.

Not too bad, but still forgettable. Stopped in for a lunch special and got a shrimp tempura roll, BBQ beef and the standard sides (rices, salad, miso soup) for about ten bucks. Not too impressed with the beef and would not order that again. Just not the amount of flavor and freshness I like. Shrimp tempura was better, but still pales in comparison to Sushi of Naples which isn't too far from this place. Glad I checked the place out, but I will stick with Sushi of Naples next time I'm craving something Japanese.

I Love NODA's. Everytime I have guests from out of town, they always request to go to NODA's at least once or twice during their visit. Food is wonderful and abundant. I don't like sushi but still go to NODA's offten for the chicken teriyaki, beef and gyozas. Good friendly atmosphere and very reasonable prices.
