VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. — Nami Nori, the New York City-based sushi bar and restaurant that boasts Pharrell as a partner, is opening a new location in Virginia Beach's Atlantic Park this weekend — a fitting establishment, given the meaning of its Japanese name in English, which translates to "surfing" or "wave riding."

The restaurant is located at 1892 Pacific Avenue and features on its menu open-style temaki, or open-style sushi rolls, signature rolls, tuna poke, and spicy crab dip — a Virginia Beach restaurant exclusive — in addition to cocktails, sake, beer, and wine at the bar.

Virginia Beach native and music mogul Pharrell Williams is a partner with Launchpad Hospitality, the group behind the restaurant project.
