Gem hidden in plain sight on Causeway in Metairie. Mr. Seiji lends a creative hand on a variety of fish delivered with joy that it is hard to imagine Omakasa anywhere else.

“The menu is extensive, the sushi was excellent, the service was excellent, and extremely reasonable. A great place!“

“Very fresh, and tasty food. We live nearby. No wait time, large portions, excellent service. My husband loves ginger dressing, and they let him buy a big container to take home. We had panko crab balls, chicken and shrimp hibachi, and steak teriakki with tempura veggies and shrimp“

“This is my go-to spot for sushi in the city. While there are several more premium options for sushi, they come with premium price tags. None of them hold a candle to Origami in terms of value. The menu here is extensive, so it will be easy to find something for everyone in your party. The rolls are pretty standard, but all are good. Their nigiri in particular stands out for being excellent yet being almost half the price of some of the other more hyped sushi locations in the city. Their cocktails are great as well.“

“high quality seafood w/ incredible variety for a good price.
their nigiri sushis are quite large (2x the size of other sushi restaurants) so we eat them in two bites, which feels a bit weird. but their fish is usually very fresh, high quality, and there are so many options to choose from.
i especially recommend the yellowtail, japanese scallop, albacore tuna, and eel nigiri sushis. i also love their salmon skin roll (much simpler than their other rolls and very delicious). sometimes they get really good uni.
there’s no going wrong here, and they also have a large list of very inventive rolls and apps.“

“🌸 A Zen Culinary Experience at Hana Sushi 🌸
Hana Sushi in New Orleans isn’t just a restaurant—it’s a ritual. For those of us who practice the zen of food Qi, this place is sacred ground. The sushi here honors tradition, crafted with care and intention, not drowned in mayo or molded for mass appeal. If your idea of sushi is sticky rice topped with imitation crab, you might want to look elsewhere.

But if you’re seeking authenticity, depth of flavor, and a quiet reverence for the art of Japanese cuisine, Hana delivers. The atmosphere is calm, the portions generous, and the experience—excellent.

Go slow. Savor each bite. Hana isn’t fast food—it’s food that lasts in memory.“

“Great hibachi restaurant with excellent, very flavorful hibachi, friendly service, and lots of seating. I ordered the filet mignon and chicken with rice, vegetables, mushroom soup, and salad. It was all really good. Wasn't very busy on a Monday evening around 7pm.“

“wonderful Cafe with delicious food 👏“

“Just left and as usual a great experience. I never feel neglected by the servers here, tonight our server gave me a great recommendation, had the most cheerful personality! A must go always!“

“I came in to place a to go order and the place was swamped with people picking up or trying to eat. Nick was very sweet and attentive to everyone, he offered me water after I was waiting for a few. The food ended up being delicious as well. Definitely will come back to try again!“

“Everything was delicious and so fresh! Service was wonderful and food arrived quickly. Will be returning again soon.“

“I love asian food and specifically gyudon or beef bowls. This is the worst place to go. The food had absolutely no flavor to it. Extremely disappointed. Go anywhere else.“

“food was decent. our server was nice. the hostesses were cute. 4.5/5 missing .5 for having only unsweetened tea!“

“The sushi here is some of the best I've had. The tea was awful, but the food itself was amazing. The house roll is one of the best things I've eaten, and I'm not usually a fan of cream cheese in my sushi rolls. The vegetables were fresh, the BBQ eel hot, and the flavors perfectly balanced.“

“I eat there every week sometimes twice or more. After leaving Snap fitness Fujiyama fuels me right back up ready to go. Excellent customer service and delicious food!“

“The pork belly was delicious and so was the snowcrab salad! The sushi was super fresh and I was amazed at the prices. There were so many things on the menu that I wanted to try! The staff was great and the chef came out to check on us with each dish we ordered! I can’t wait to go back! (Plus it’s just up the street from me!)“

“Best sushi. Great service at the sushi bar. Of course the female service always to be in such a rush and it's difficult to get a refill on drinks but the food makes it all worthwhile. After visiting several other Sushi local places that recently opened up in Metairie I really appreciate it going back to Uchi sushi. I suggest you ask them to cut the rolls in more pieces as they are huge! Great place to bring the kids. Mine have grown up going there“

“Shogun is so great restaurant. I love Shrimp tempura appetizer including grilled shrimp. I also love fried rice and rice patties. The manager is so nice and friendly. Service is great and polite.“

“It was good but everything smelled and tasted like fish so if you like fish this is the spot !! I unfortunately do not like fish ! But the service was great and the price for the amount of food was reasonable!! I recommend this restaurant! I give it 3 1/2 stars“

“A day out with the kiddos, my eldest suggested Haiku and we thoroughly enjoyed every bite. The atmosphere was nice, waitress was extremely attentive, clean restrooms and we were able to enjoy a few parades literally blocks away. Definitely 5🌟“

“I have really high standards for Japanese food and this place exceeds my expectations. The price is really cheap even though the quality is as good as those high-end Japanese restaurants. Very friendly and accommodating staff. I am a tourist and I already came here several times during my visit to New Orleans. Please try it out 💗“

“Great Sushi 🍣 great people“

“Alright Hina Hut!! We ordered sweet and sour chicken and sesame chicken. The sweet and sour sauce is awesome! There have been some positive changes since we last ordered from Hina Hut! Chicken was great! They are boiling seafood now. Crawfish, sausage and corn were seasoned well! We had a pick up order and then bought some of the boiled stuff too!“

“All you can feast, made to order, tasty sushi. Nothing more to express.“
