Tsunami New Orleans

This is a great sushi place not only for the quality and deliciousness of the sushi but also the atmosphere. It's a date night kind of place and a lot of sushi restaurants aren't really much for environs. Bf and I went for a night out and it was great. Cocktails strong, food delicious and loved the paperless ordering system. It's not my favorite sushi in the area, but definitely top three.

Booked a reservation for my daughter?s 18th birthday. Food was good. We had a server being trained and he was working really hard. Everyone was pleased with their food. My sushi was not my favorite but their fried rice is so good!! It?s different and unique. If you are looking for the usual super greasy fried rice you get at any other restaurant, you may be disappointed. The Brussels sprouts dish was seriously amazing. They treated my daughter to a birthday treat. She wasthrilled. Only negative, like a serious thumbs down: they were blasting country music. Lol. It was the weekend of Halloween, we were in the beautiful city of New Orleans eating some great sushi and country music was blaring. Almost took astar off for that.

Ended up getting the sushi sampler and then also tried their specialty sea urchin and Hawaiian Ono. Over all the sushi was decent, but nothing spectacular. I have definitely had better, but I have also had worse. The atmosphere was pleasant, and our server was friendly and prompt. However the kitchen was slow and it took longer than it should have to get our sushi out and to our table. With everything considered, the restaurant itself was a bit overpriced. The goodnews is, I had a nice Lemon Drop cocktail from the bar. I will also say that, I did really enjoy the Miso soup.

Much variety on the menu, well-prepared sushi dishes, great atmosphere!

A great experience at Tsunami is the standard. I’ve been to their BR location, Lafayette location, and frequent their NO location. Their rolls are delicious, the atmosphere is unrivaled, and the wait staff is consistently kind. They do get busy, so the occasional hiccup is unavoidable, but that’s OK. Recommendations: Green Monster is a MUST. I cannot say that enough. However... I don’t understand the cream cheese, so I always order without. My other favorites are the Lava Roll (light on the aioli and the Don Tuan (again, why cream cheese in a roll? . Word of caution, the spicy edamame is pretty intense and bathing in the pepper sauce. Miso is the best I’ve had anywhere. Enjoy!
