Great sushi place in New Orleans! Best sushi I’ve had on my visits to Nola. Ika fries are a must try. The big easy roll was my favorite. My friend really liked a roll that has a dorito chip crust. The atmosphere is very cool and total date night vibes. The host Patrick was very professional and nice.
Good selection wine and sake. Service was attentive and pleasurable. We had sushi nigiri, edamame and good ol sushi rice. The sushi was all fresh and reasonably priced. Loved the crunchy roll the best!
Love to do the Omakase here. The chefs create unique bites and really feel you out to see your likes and dislikes. Overall, fresh fish and delicious flavors.
I cannot tell you how great the food was here (10/10) and the service was chilled but other things disappointed me. The first thing is you need a smartphone with you to see their menu which is online and very difficult to negotiate whilst at your table. To me dining out is about the experience and that starts with going through the menu with others in your party and sharing the experience of exploring the menu which is impossible when each of you are on a smartphone. Its almost an unsociable experience so counter to why you go out with others. The sight of watching food preparation although part of the show in some Japanese restaurants has to be slick and hygiene has to be top notch. Once the sun went down it was so dark you couldn't read the cheque which is where the torch on the smart phone came into its own. The background music (if you could call it that) was awful. Ive given this four stars for taste of the food and the service. The music, smartphone menu and other things let it down.
Miso soup and seaweed salad were both excellent, would definitely order both again. Seaweed salad has a glass noodles texture and is a little sweet.Black and gold roll got great reviews and I wasn't disappointed. Not normally a baked roll kinda guy, but I'm glad I made an exception. NO style flavor profile, with a little kick. Sweet to balance and a large portion. Would order again.Tuan roll was good but paled in comparison to the black and gold roll. The roll pieces are very large, and they were tasty, but I would probably try another fresh roll before coming back to this one.Father Calais was excellent. Deep fried roll with Philly cheese is the highlight with some chili sauce as kick. Good choice for the heavy roll, would order again.Big tuna. Big to the point of being hard to eat. Great flavor but a little unwieldy. Would pick a different fresh roll next time.Munchy roll: basically a philly roll with Doritos crumbs sprinkled on the outside. I enjoyed it as a philly roll but he Doritos didn't really add anything aside from novelty. Would just order the philly roll next time and save $2. Maybe have them add some cucumber for crunch.Cajun roll wasn't my favorite, but GF liked the crunchy gator. I wouldn't order that again either.The lava roll is close to the black and gold (minus crunchies and a little smaller portion). Not a bad choice, would order again.Green monster was ordered and got good marks from the gf, I'm allergic so I'll have to take her word for it.Fried rice is very pepper heavy. Ordered as a filler without meat. It did have lots of fresh veggies, but the pepper overpowered anything else that might have been in it. Might be better with a protein, but I would just get something else at that point.Atmosphere is quieter casual, the room has an industrial modern look, they use real candles, large parties could dine here, the service was good. The prices are reasonable for sushi and they have a happy hour that seems like a good deal too. We will be back.
The sushi and soup is amazing and the employees are very friendly. Luv the happy hour.
great atmosphere, fabulous service. great selection and variety of wonderful food selection. highly recommended.
Good food at reasonable price with good ambiance and service.
The food was ok...sadly the pictures on the online menu are deceiving since the food that comes put looks like a very small or incomplete version of the pictures. Service was ok but our order was lost and didnt get main the main entree till an hour later after several reminders to the waitress. We did get our entrees paid for by the restaurant after they realized that our order was lost somewhere which was nice. Maybe it was just an off day but dont expect the food that comes out to look like what's in the pictures, as in below, left is what came out, right picture is from the menu.
Great happy hour specials daily. Drinks are delicious. Bartender is super sweet and knowledgeable. Try the smoked escolar, it is amazing.
