Reviews for Ikura Hibachi And Sushi in New Orleans, LA

I usually try to give 4 to 5 stars ratings which you can check on my history. Service industry took a blow when covid hit so I... am mindful about it. The lady that greeted me had food in her mouth and that's how she said hello. It took a while for a serverto take care of me and the restaurant was empty. My Sushi was rushed and did not taste good.

Sweet potato roll is decent the Gustavo roll is horrible. It taste like a sponge and old. It?s also supposed to have mango and... avocado on every bite and it looks like they just put old salmon on top. It?s also supposed to have sweet chili sauce and spicymango on it. I would never come here again, their prices are decent but their quality is horrible. Read more

We went for a coworker's birthday at 11:30am lunch. It was not very crowded at all. Parking was a little difficult to find since... its a small parking lot. We were seated quickly and ordered our drinks and ordered off the menu. Staff was attentive enough. Iwouldn't term it friendly. Lunch combo comes with clear soup, salad (very small), vegetables, fried rice and your choice ofprotein. My lunch of steak and shrimp with a $3 green tea came to $29. Our group's concerns were about the leftover dried riceand food still left on the hibachi grill as we waited for the chef to arrive. We wondered why it hadn't been cleaned from thenight before. The chef arrived about 20 minutes after seating and confirmed our individual orders. Best part of lunch was theflame burst as chef used oil to torch the hibachi. The rice was very good. Several of my coworkers ordered steak and shrimpcombo along with me. I ordered steak medium. Chef served my steak well with everyone else's choice. It wasn't dry but not mypreference. It's been a while since I visited a hibachi restuarant, but I remember more fanfare with cooking the meal in frontof the customers and general chatting with the seated guest from the chef. The restuarant allows for separate checks, willcharge a small differential for paying with cash versus credit card. Overall it was a good meal. No one tried the sushi. Maybeon another visit if we give it another try. Read more

This is a review of the Sushi side of the business, I didn't have any hibachi/teppanyaki, but there was a line of people waiting... for it, so it must have been good. So this place offers AYCE sushi, but you have to ask for it. (You can also get soups,salads, tempura, even noodles with the deal) Sushi was quite good and while a lot of places that offer AYCE sushi skimp on thefish and go heavy on the rice, that's not the case here- the nigiri were well portioned, and the maki were as well. I evenordered some sashimi and was surprised to find that instead of giving me a "nigiri-sized" slice, I got a proper thick slice. Iliked everything I ordered, and the only surprise I got was that the tuna toll was not a tekka roll, but an urumaki filled withtuna. Not what I expected, but still quite tasty. In fact, the only complaint I really could lodge at all is that *I*overindulged, and left the restaurant more full that I really should have. But that's not their fault, it's mine. Well maybe itis party theirs, because the food was *so* delicious. TL; DR- 10/10 would reccomend. Read more

Great staff, got seated fairly quickly, the sashimi was good but the sushi has an excessive amount of rice. Definitely not... recommended for people looking to eat sushi. Read more

Stopped in for lunch and will go back. Friendly staff and really nice food. I got the tempura lunch; the vegetables were top... notch. I also ordered 3 rolls because, since this was my first visit here, I wanted to give them a try. The chocolate roll wasa new one to me, I do like seared tuna so I tried this one. I also ordered the snow crab and yellowtail/scallion to do acomparison with other restaurants I like. These held up but my order was not heard right and the scallions were missing. Alland all a great experience. Read more

The food tasted great! Perfect amount of garlic and butter not like other hibachi restaurants. The cook though didn?t entertain... at all, the cook next to us was entertaining his table so it made it more awkward for us. Read more

The food was very good but the wait time was ridiculous! When we arrived they told my husband and I that our family of 5 would... be waiting 30 minutes. 30 minutes turned into over an hour. The waiting area was extremely over crowded and the bar area wasempty so they could have invited waiting guest to have a seat at the bar while waiting for table seating. It took them the last15 minutes of our wait to finally offer seats at the bar. They need better customer service to match the food. Read more
