    End of the bar near the restrooms on the right side of this photo

    The ambiance was a little loud because it is a small restaurant but it didn't bother me. It was awesome seeing the staffs support for LSU and playing the game on the big flat screen on the wall behind the bar. The staff stayed on serving the guests even though the game was on. The staff were very knowledgeable about every product especially my waitress in regards to the sake. When you walk in, the center of the establishment is a bar where the chefs make everything right in front of you and it's shaped like a u. There are booths against the walls of the restaurant. Now onto the food. The variety is amazing! If you want just sushi rolls I would go somewhere else. The fish from this place is by far the best and freshest fish I've ever had here in baton rouge. It left me shell shocked. I got the salmon truffle, tuna tataki, bluefin tuna roll, and the shrimp tempura. The salmon truffle is not as big as it seems in the other yelp reviews. The plate is the size of your hand. The sauce from both the salmon and tuna plates was so mouth watering good, I wanted to take it home. I just wanted to keep dipping food in it and ordering more. The tuna tataki was presented well, had avocado as like a tasteful paste over the tuna and it was so tender. They made it look like a steak, taste tender like a steak, but it was still tuna. This food just made me smile because anywhere else after trying this place makes other places taste like rouses sushi. The bluefin tuna roll was wrapped with seaweed wrap I believe and it was soooo good!!!!!I just wish you got two at a time. This is the first place for sushi that when you s5art off you'll keep saying get another and another. The shrimp tempura under the appetizers is what I got. I didn't ask but I thought it would be sushi rolls with tempura. It was so good regardless. It was super flaky for the breading and came out real hot and fresh. The waitress did apologize for the small wait which was like 6 min not a big deal at all. She said I could stay to watch the LSU game after eating and paying out. They are so friendly here, knowledgeable, and have regulars that they are really good to. They are very cleanly too. After each person left they almost immediately cleaned up after them and replaced the menus, napkins, and chopsticks. I'm just blown away by the service. I'll definitely come back for either a regular day or game day. This place when you take a bite it just puts a smile on your face and a regular I over heard said the same thing but wasn't in the room when I said it. That just goes to show the value and standards of this place.

    This was the sushi experience of a lifetime, and on SHERWOOD! This meal blew me away. The ambiance, the service, the quickness in which the food came out, THE FOOD! If you are into sushi but want to try something a little different, you will fall in love just as I did tonight. The highlights of the meal for me were the shrimp tempura hand roll, yellowtail hand roll, and eel hand roll. 1000/10!!! And our server, Katelyn was a pleasure! She pointed out which rolls were which for us and gave us recommendations!

    The atmosphere and service were excellent! Food was very flavorful, and you can tell they take pride in each dish that comes out. The only thing I would tweak is that some of the flavor profiles could have come through a bit more, and the crunchy onions were a bit much for me, but other than that, it was a fantastic experience.

    Truffle salmon and hot hamachi

    Favorite sushi spot in Baton Rouge, PERIOD. I leave full and wishing I had more space to eat even more. The freshest sushi I've ever had?? On Sherwood blvd too??? Service is amazing??? I feel blessed to work down the street. 10/10 recommend. GET THE TRUFFLE SALMON.

    Tuna tataki
    Kristy K.

    So good. Got the spicy garlic edamame which was delicious! We got all 3 cold plates and they were all delicious, our fav was the hamachi, followed by the tuna tataki, and then the truffle salmon but we would get them all again. We also tried the spicy salmon handball and bluefin tuna hand roll. The blue fin was our favorite but like before, the salmon was awesome too, would get both again. Would definitely return, yum! I didn't realize they don't have regular sushi rolls but still knocked it out of the park.

    Fantastic sushi restaurant in BR. Handrolls were crisp and nigiris were delectable. Staff was friendly and explained items well. Fun vibe in the restaurant; ideal to watch a game and eat delicious sushi!

    Chicken karaage
    Sarah W.

    Wow. Been wanting to try this place since I saw them on social media and it did not at all disappoint. It's impressive that Baton Rouge could have a spot like this. It's a small menu with creative options made from super fresh ingredients. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. We had the truffle salmon which was so delicate and tasty, the chicken karaage which was really crunchy but juicy with an awesome lemony aioli, a flight of the nigiri specials (Scallop & Fois Gras, O-Toro, and Sake Toro) which all were SO GOOD, and we also tried the Basic Batch flight of hand rolls (but subbed the unagi for scallop) and like everything else they were all awesome. Honestly, I left impressed in every way. The service was super attentive and friendly, so it just made the experience even better. The place is quaint, in an unassuming location in a small strip center on Sherwood... don't let that fool you! Will be back as much as possible.

    By far, best and freshest sushi in BR! The flavors/ingredients combined in all the dishes/rolls are exceptional. New fav spot!

    Truffle salmon. Please do yourself a favor and get this!!
    Chi L.

    The truffle salmon was down right addictive! I also enjoyed the tuna tataki and hamachi cold plates. The hand rolls were carefully crafted and timed perfectly by the chef to ensure the seaweed wrap was crisp surrounding the fresh, melt in your mouth, delicious fish. My favorite was the scallop hand roll. The staff was friendly and the decor was beautiful. Y'all need to try out this new sushi spot!

    Blue Crab Handroll

    Service was great and food was greater! Highly recommend the Tuna Tataki Cold Plate and Bluefin Tuna Handroll.

    Tuna Tataki

    Food: 5/5 (for buffet experience) Service: 5/5…read moreAmbiance: 3.5/5 I visited this location in 2021 with my family when it was under previous ownership. The 2021 visit food was below average and service wasn't much to speak of. I live nearby and have been wanting to visit here and try the lunch buffet. I was not disappointed at all. I don't think I've eaten at a Chinese lunch buffet in the BR area that I really enjoyed. I brought my son and he is picky and he enjoyed just about everything he tried. We sampled a good variety. Side note: I've eaten at the other place at Sherwood & Coursey, just around the corner and my visit was once with no desire to return. Food: A really good variety to choose from on the buffet. They buffet is from 11am - 4pm, it's not an all day buffet. The variety they have is definitely quality over quantity. Very impressed with price of $12.99 and the quality of food. Egg roll was good, House Made Roll was excellent! The crab Rangoon was not lacking, it had ample amount of cream cheese, no skimping there. Honey Chicken was good, Sesame Chicken was excellent, had a little spice to the sweetness too. Hunan pork was excellent, beef and broccoli was the only item that was average to me. Sweet & sour chicken, friend rice, lo mein, was very good. No General Tso's or Mandarin Chicken on the buffet. Unsure if they take any requests for specific items to be placed on buffet. Service: I believe the owner was the one that greeted us and sat us at our table. Very nice, attentive, and had good small talk about FIFA World Cup. He immediately took our drink order and drinks were at our table before we returned. Ambiance: Place had a decemt ambiance to it. Very clean. I do remember the old Hunan's ambiance was cool because of the old celebrity photos on the wall that had a good amount of LSU stars. This definitely doesn't have that, but I wish it did resemble some of that, maybe one day it will. The important aspect is the great quality of the food, because I definitely wasn't there for the decor. To my surprise this place wasn't jam packed. I was nervous when I walked in because not many patrons inside, but when we left there was about 5 more tables filled. This place should be more packed.

The inside was clean, spacious, and wasn't busy, which was nice bec we weren't fighting swarms of people like at a typical buffet. I tried a little sample of just about everything. I loved how the food was hot and I'd say the chicken dishes were my favorite. I was pleased with the price, it was a little over $30 for 2 adults, which I felt was good for an AYCE buffet on the weekend. Overall, I'd recommend Hunan if you're in the mood for a fair priced delicious AYCE Chinese buffet!

Pros: 1) good quality food at reasonable price 2) great service during takeout 3) lots of seats Cons: 1) looking around during pickup, ambiance could be improved Rating: 4.5/5 The ambiance could be improved in the aspect of the restaurant is close to bare. No real flare or uniqueness that I can remember from being in the restaurant to pickup my orders. The service is great. All orders are done well and I've never had any issues with placing an order or picking up an order. The hostess also gave us a lot of sauces on request. The food here is amazing. The quality of the fish is excellent. I've been here 3 times and have never complained about the food. The portion sizes also are really good as well. Overall, I recommend coming here to try out the freshness of the fish. All of the food below was well worth the price. Food: Nabeyaki udon: 4/5 - tasty and worth it Grilled squid: 4/5 - good flavor and good amount but a little overcooked Tuna poke salad: 3/5 - good flavor but not a lot of tuna Maki combo (comes w/ salad and ginger dressing and miso soup): 4.5/5 - good deal, tasty classic sushi, did not have eel as written online Tokyo giant roll: 5/5 - very tasty and fresh Martinis special: 5/5 - lots of fish, fresh, worth it Audi roll: 4/5 - big pieces, good fish but overall flavor was not the best (the lemon did not work for me Six brothers roll: 5/5 - good flavor and different New Zealand roll: 4/5 - big fish, fresh fish
