Assorted Sashimi Dinner

Not a fan of this place. We ordered sashimi to go for $30 and the fish was bad. Salmon was gross and had already went bad which you could tell by the color top right? The beef tataki was over cooked. Otherwise the cooked special rolls were decent.

Seafood salad

Decided to try a new place out. Kind of a hole in the wall, but hey! , some hole in the walls and the best!! And they have RAMEN! Friendly greeting. Price is decent. Salad had way too much masago Fish is pretty fresh

The outside of the place made me think twice before ordering but I decided to go against my better judgement. The inside looks like a bar room off Bourbon street. I ordered 3 sushi rolls, 2 snow crab salad and yakisoba noodles. Plus side is the sushi rolls are huge!!! Down side is the seaweed that holds them together is weird. Meaning it doesn't hold the roll together, breaks apart very easy and it's yellow and taste funny. The mango on top of the Fency mama roll was horrible, tasted nothing like mango. The sushi is compared to sushi from a buffet. My daughter hated her snow crab salad. It's missing the sauce that usually goes on it that holds the crab meat together or something. The best thing about my order was the Yakisoba noodles. People was nice but I probably won't be back.

Jaf roll, snow crab salad, rock n roll, sushi appetizer, fried oysters, fried soft shell crabs

Holy sh*t, im sooo full. This was delicious. The rolls are huge and have fresh, thick cuts of fish. This place is top notch with incredible prices and service. Its definitely my place to go on the westbank from now on. For your love of sushi, give this place a try, you will thank me. 4 thumbs up from me and the beautiful wifey.

I wanted to try it since I saw it was coming soon and I'm very glad I did. The service was amazing and the food is delicious. The rolls do need to be rapped tighter but it was still great. I will definitely be coming back!

It's been over 7 years since I dined in at Nobuko, but my friend and I decided to come back since…read moreour original plan to go to Sushi Masa was changed because of the high traffic. Glad to say that I enjoyed my time back. The inside decor was quiet, but still neat and clean. It was simple but still aesthetically kept. Our server was excellent and really funny! He was patient with us when we had questions. I ordered their Omakase Roll ($20.95). First off, the rolls are HUGE! The taste was good, but the rolls kept falling into pieces when I try to pick it up. Overall, I had a good experience back to Nobuko. I know there's a lot of sushi options in the Westbank, but I'd say it's a decent sushi spot in the Manhattan area.

Ok so they are open until 11pm. If you have ever gone to a late-ish movie around here you have…read morediscovered that that is a rare quality, so bonus points there. Restaurant was appealing and good service. Howeva - the sushi was just like a C. You know what I'm talking about - that kind of sushi that looks very appealing and (when you first start to eat it) seems pretty decent but then as you go on you realize all the rolls and rice and seaweed have been made like two days before and it's all been sitting around in a refrigerato. And then, when you eat it, it's just sort of rubbery and intractable. It's not really "bad food" or "inedible" but you know that every other bite you eat is slowly eroding your taste for sushi away. You know if you eat too much of it you'll just never eat sushi again because your idea of it has will have become so mediocre. (I will say that the sashimi seemed very good quality aside from the clam, whose rubbery flaps were basically unchewable) Also, they put that abominable Snow Crab Salad in the rolls which is, to me, a low quality disgusting filler that I find insulting. I hate having to comb through the roll list hardly finding any without it. But if you are into that so it be.

This particular Monday night we opted to eat a 5:30P dinner in a relatively quiet, open restaurant with Kaitlyn C. as our server. Sake and water for husband and soda for myself all delivered quickly. Also ordered apps at same time explaining husband was famished. Pork gyoza showed up in less than 5 min, and our spring rolls with yummy chili sauce arrived before the gyoza was gone. Husband's Beef Yaki Udon arrived in a reasonable size bowl - no overfilling with too many noodles. I thought the beef was good quality and the cabbage was just the right amount and not too strong. The Crunchy Dynamite Roll w/soy paper and Tsurai Roll (suggested by Kaitlyn when I was overwhelmed with choices) w/sriracha on the side were the last to make it to the table but worth the wait. I'm so glad we asked for a recommendation because otherwise the Tsurai would have been overlooked - and it was the bomb! Not a cheap meal ($71.30 w/tax w/o tip) but eating out generally isn't. With that said, only had a small amount of Udon leftover which means we didn't pay for any wasted food. Plan on eating in again rather than doing take out. Thanks, Kaitlyn C.!

During our last night in Louisiana during the Christmas break, Sophia and I headed here for dinner…read more Cafe Zen has been a favorite of ours for years when we lived in the Westbank. Sushi, noodle salad and more...great comfort food. We found out they relocated to the old Gretna neighborhood near the Courthouse recently so why not see how things are now in their new digs? Walking in, we noticed a big difference. In the previous spot, they were in a strip mall where they were small and intimate. In their new location, they have more space and a separate area with a bar. I think this was previously occupied, but on the eyes it can be a bit confusing. Within minutes, we were ready for ordering. For apps, we both ordered noodle salad, one of our favorite dishes. Sophia said the aftertaste was like mayonaise and I noticed the difference too. Maybe the mix was a little strong, but it was good. For the main course, I ordered baked salmon rolls which consisted of baked salmon fillet wrapped around snow crab filling and we shared fried fish cakes with wasabi sauce for dipping. Everything was delicious and just like previous times after moving away, made us feel like we were back home. However, the reason why the rating was 4 stars was due to the lack of intimacy the new location offered. It looks gorgeous, but again, the presence of intimacy seemed a distant memory. We sat next to a group who was a little loud and inebriated, even though they weren't harming us. A situation like that at the previous location would never happen. Sophia mentioned the same thing too as we left. Would we come back? Yes, but maybe during lunch where it's less people. We'll give them some time in this location.
