Parking lot looks like it stays full but we got in and there were a couple of tables with people and a lot of people waiting for to go. This was around 6pm. Steady stream of people coming in for pick up orders so someone likes it. Good sign lol So the food is seafood boils or Chinese. Didnt feel like getting messy so went with the Chinese side. We all did. Now a lot of people like to judge any Chinese food against the backdrop of "is it Chinese kitchen?". And we are no different lol but having lived away from the city for a long time and finding nothing is Chinese kitchen, you adjust your scale. And this place was fine. I had the four seasons, moms had the shrimp and broccoli and pops had the shrimp lo mein. We all enjoyed. We also ordered a combo fried rice to share. Also fine. Now the egg rolls, again, judging against the one of a kind, they were fine. They at least had shrimp in them. So better than nothing. I would not have a problem eating here again. Also that sweet tea will give you diabetes. I had three glasses lol Our server was attentive. Answered questions. Checked on is frequent. Give em a shot

East Harbor is a newer restaurant, but I'm already obsessed! I'm ashamed to say how many times…read morewe've been there already since we discovered it. If you love seafood boils, you have to come by to try this place out! They have boiled seafood very similar to the kind that's served at Big EZ Seafood and Oyster in Kenner, but they also have regular Americanized Chinese food if you're in the mood for some Chinese takeout. I love their Chinese takeout food too, but the bags of boiled seafood are really the appeal here. Their portions are large and generous, their prices low and cheap, the quality of food is high, and everything is delicious. The boiled seafood here is a little bit different than the truly New Orleanian style of boil you might be used to eating. You can choose the type of seasonings you want (Cajun, spicy seafood, garlic butter, lemon pepper, or a combination of multiple),and you can choose your spice/heat level (mild to extra hot) too. I love the customization! Their seafood "combos" are a fantastic deal. For example, for just $20, you get 1lb of shrimp, corn, potatoes, and sausage slices. This is my favorite go-to item here for sure. Because it's messy, if you're eating there, they provide you with disposable gloves and a wet wipe, which we all welcome lol Their Chinese takeout is great too and always comes with generous portions. One thing to note is that the takeout items tend to be a little low on salt for my tastes, but that's an easy fix with a salt shaker. I think it's a good thing especially for people who might have dietary restrictions on their sodium intake. Remember, it's easy to add salt to a dish, but nearly impossible to remove it! All in all, East Harbor is a 5-star, must-try, go-to-favorite restaurant! ESPECIALLY for their boiled seafood!!

What a spectacular, memorable evening…read more Recommended by local friends, this spot offers a Pan-Asian menu with a subtle New Orleans twist. It's a tasting menu only--very well priced at $95. The meal is structured in four "tranches," each with three choices. Our party of four managed to sample almost the entire menu. We started with cocktails and a dark chocolate Japanese ale, which set the tone nicely. Standout dishes included the tuna solera, scallion lamb, salt-baked shrimp, satay chicken, and key lime pie. Honestly, there wasn't a weak dish in the lineup. We all opted for the wine pairing ($75), which was thoughtfully selected and generously poured. Service was excellent throughout. All in, with tip, dinner for four came to about $1,200--and it felt well worth it. Highly recommended.

From the start, the experience was excellent--we were seated right away, and our server came over promptly to get everything moving. Although the restaurant was busy, it was comfortable and not overly loud. As always, the food did not disappoint. I had a cup of Tom Kha soup with chicken, while my husband ordered the Tom Yum soup with chicken. Both were perfectly spicy and absolutely delicious. We also shared a sausage appetizer, which was very good, and then split a shrimp and scallop entrée that was truly outstanding. I will definitely be ordering that again. I can't wait to go back.

This is my favorite restaurant! The owner/executive chef, Chef Hao is a genius. We get the "Feed…read moreMe" option where 4-5 dishes are brought out that are chosen and prepared personally by Chef Hao. His dishes are to die for. Combinations you would never think would work together just fuse and melt in your mouth. He pairs things like raw salmon and strawberries with a sauce that mind blowing. All this combined in your mouth is like heaven on Earth! His Mama's Dumpling soup is so good especially on a cold or rainy night. I have tried almost his whole menu and can't complain about a thing. My only complaint is I wish they were open for lunch. If I worked there, my whole check would go to my bill and I'd still probably owe him money! The staff is really good. They are great for offering recommendations from food to cocktails to bourbons (that he collects). And if they aren't sure, they will ask Chef Hao for his advise. They fully explain everything that comes out and is put on the table, even the rice they explain is to sop up any extra sauce. Every day he is open, he is out picking the freshest fish, veggies, and fruits so dishes taste fresh and can be changed up if one thing isn't available but something else is. The place itself is small but very cozy. I would definitely recommend reservations through Open Table. We went one night during all the very cold weather. I was worried I'd be cold since it's in a remodeled NOLA shotgun house (and those building at known for being drafty), but Chef had the place insulated very well. My husband and I go there for our wedding anniversary, birthdays, or just to go when the craving hits. It's a great place to bring a date.

As a sister restaurant of Morrows (when you step inside, you can tell), they have a blueprint of how to have great food, ambience and still remain very authentic. Having lived in South Korea for a few years, it is one of my favorite cuisines. I was excited to try this fusion of cultures! The menu is extensive, I ended up trying a few different small plates. I ordered the gumbo dumplings, crawfish fried rice, roasted Brussels, hot wonton dip. It was all damn delicious! I will be back because I still have so many things to try, especially the Kimchi Lobster Pasta lol I recommend to make a reservation to make sure you get right on in.

We decided to try Asi-Fusion Asian Kitchen & Sushi Bar in Kenner after noticing its extremely high…read moreGoogle rating (4.9 stars with mostly 5-star reviews). We actually chose it over another, more upscale-looking restaurant nearby because of those ratings. We always like supporting highly rated local spots, so we went in hoping for a great experience. The restaurant is small and fairly simple inside. We were greeted by a friendly staff member who also served as our waiter, and service throughout the meal was polite. The restaurant wasn't very busy at the time. My husband and I eat sushi often--both locally and when we travel--so we tend to order a few "baseline" items that make it easier to gauge quality. We started with gyoza and steamed shumai. The shumai had a strong shrimp flavor but was somewhat soggy in texture. The gyoza was pan-seared but fairly average. Both appetizers gave us the impression they might be pre-made rather than freshly prepared. Next we ordered the snow crab naruto, along with a rainbow naruto that looked great on the restaurant's display screen. Unfortunately, both rolls were assembled so loosely that they fell apart almost immediately when we tried to pick them up. It seemed the cucumber wrapping was sliced too thin to hold the ingredients together. The rainbow naruto especially fell apart as soon as it was touched, and it also had no sauce or finishing element, which made it feel incomplete. For our main rolls we ordered the Rock and Roll and the Po Boy roll. The Rock and Roll was average, and my husband described the Po Boy roll as just okay. We finished the meal with fried banana for dessert, which ended up being the best item we ordered. After dinner we drove back to Baton Rouge (we had been in the area to drop someone off at the airport). On the drive home both of us experienced stomach discomfort, and by the time we got home we both had upset stomachs. I'm still not feeling great the next day, which is unusual for me since I rarely experience stomach issues after eating out. I wouldn't say it was food poisoning, but the after-effects were noticeable. Given the very high ratings online, perhaps we just visited on an off night. However, based on our experience, I can only give it two stars and it's not somewhere we would likely return.
