Best Japanese Restaurants in Pacific Grove

Victor was our chef and Joshua was our server. Victor of course was an awesome cook. He was attentive even when our server was not around and prepared and seasoned the food very well. Victor put on a wonderful show and he even had jokes!

Took a friend to Tori for a birthday. We all enjoyed our dinner and introducing them to a new eatery.

It was my sons birthday, he really wanted wagyu steak so we came here. The staff was so involved in the creation of an amazing experience. Kitty was our service she was so sweet and answered all the questions we had on the different kinds of steak options. We were given many amazing recommendations and at the end of the meal we were surprised with a Prosecco toast and a small chocolate devils cake to cheers my son’s birthday. The environment was lovely and the product was as amazing as we had predicted. 10 out of 10 recommend !

Started a little 3 day getaway with the family and the Mrs gave me 3 choices to pick for dinner. Knowing full well why Nura was on the list. We love us some sushi. Nura's ambiance was peaceful and cute. The staff was outstanding. Not once did my water run dry. Not once did I have to wait till they decided to come back by. They were very good at reading the customers. The sushi rolls were on point with taste and presentation. Definitely some of the best sushi we've ever had and we've had a lot over the last almost 20 years together. Here are some pictures of what we had. Highly recommend Nura if you happen to be in the area! Thank you to all the staff for making our first nights dinner top notch. You've set the bar high for all other restaurants in the Monterey area for us.
