Very small restaurant with a homey feel. Sitting beside strangers, not many real tables but great food.

A total gem! This spot is cute, traditional, & high-quality. Because it's a cozy space, it fills up almost instantly-I highly recommend arriving at least 5 minutes before they open to secure a table.'

First time going to Noren. We really enjoyed the meal. Delicious & authentic Japanese cuisine. The place is a bit small, but they won't rush you to leave after the meal. Great service ! Definitely going back to try the rest of the menu

Que dire de ce hidden gem! Simpliste, mais à la fois pensé, élégant & épuré. Un brin petit, mais c'est ce qui donne le charisme à l'endroit.

I was surprised how tiny the place was. Maybe 10 seats top. No tables only counters. But still very cozy.
The food though... wow it was amazing! I never tasted anything like it. We took everything. So the takoyaki, Okonomiyaki, & the plate of the week. Everything was so tasty & authentic.
The waiter was very friendly. & super cute.
We look forward to trying it again.

NOREN est un petit restaurant japonais chaleureux reconnu pour leurs Takoyaki & Okonomiyaki (frais, chauds & delicieux!). Le menu est restreint (takoyaki, okonomiyaki, 1 plat de la semaine, salade, dessert & boissons (aucun alcool), mais qualite assuree.
Je recommande fortement :)
