Best Japanese Restaurants in Lakeview/Gentilly

Every moment of our evening was phenomenal. We had a reservation and there was no additional wait. Our food and drinks were incredible. The quality of the meat was unreal. We don’t typically dine at steakhouses but for our anniversary, we wanted to do something special. This place did NOT disappoint.

Best sushi in New Orleans, owner walks table to table to ask everyone how their dining experience was/is. Rare to see that nowadays.

Incredible food! Ordered the yellowtail cold dish, Toridito, tuna and salmon tacos (would pass on next time due to size), black miso cod (one of the best meals we’ve ever had), rock shrimp tempura, and tuna and salmon hand rolls. One of the best meals we’ve ever had.

I arrived at 4:10 waited a few moments for my table since my reservation was for 4:15 however my server was very nice informed of their happy hour and I let her know I needed to be out by 5 she was very quick and very nice. I’ve been coming for several years and it has never disappointed !!

Wow, what an amazing find. I came and had the 7 course omakase and every course was fresh, delicious, and innovative. Beautiful little restaurant with a fantastic selection of beer, wine, sake and cocktails (which I may have indulged in a liiiiittle too much but there were so many amazing options!) Bang for your buck is unmatched since omakase can usually be in the hundreds of dollars per person range (not here!) Holly was amazing, along with the 2 sushi chefs whose names I didn’t catch. Can’t wait to come back next time I’m in NOLA.
