I've been going to Shogun since they're opening. This last time the service was so slow sitting at the sushi bar. Then when I got home, my gut was not happy. Spent most of the evening in the restroom. Hopefully this was just a fluke and no one else experienced without our experienced. read more

I went to Shogun because I wanted hibachi and I've heard great things. I did have a little bit of a wait once I got there, around 6pm. This place was busy! I decided to get a drink from the bar while I waited. I asked the bartender to make me a strawberry lemon drop and she delivered! It was one of the best lemon drops I've ever had! I got the Shogun Delight which is chicken and shrimp. I opted for the hibachi rice with no egg. I loved that they accommodated me. The chef was fast and entertaining. He cooked the food perfectly. I had a lot of leftovers! I really enjoyed my dining experience and I'll be back! read more

If you've ever wanted your dinner to be grilled by a knife-wielding comedian, Shogun is your spot. The chef launched a shrimp into my mouth with surgical precision, and for a brief moment, I understood trust. The fried rice slapped, the steak was juicy, and the onion volcano gave a more impressive performance than half the Oscars. Come for the food, stay for the theatrical egg juggling and questionable fire safety. 10/10 would risk my eyebrows again. read more

This was my 3rd time having Shogun but my first time ever enjoying the sushi bar. Their sushi is high quality. The prices are fair for the New Orleans area, especially for the quality we received. Shogun offers a large menu that is sure to make everyone in your group happy even if they don't want seafood or sushi. Drinks wise, they also have delicious lychee martinis and sake to enjoy outside of classic drinks/beers. They do online orders for pickup or delivery with doordash too if you don't want to dine in. I've done both. Very casual spot if you want it to be! Don't feel like you need to be dressed up super nice. It's really what you make it. Overall, this family-owned restaurant is a great place to grab sushi, hibachi, and more in Metairie! read more

Shogun has been in business for so long, and honestly, I was never a huge fan because everything seemed mediocre to me. I think of it as a staple in Metairie, where if you ate here since the beginning of time, you'll continue to do so because it's what you're used to. The hibachi section doesn't offer much entertainment by the chefs as other restaurants but it's good for people who aren't into that and rather just eat and go. Let's talk about togo phone orders. They're definitely hard to get ahold of. Constant busy tone because they're always so busy. It tests your patience, for sure. So why the four stars? Because I've found myself frequenting the sushi bar for their omakase. I'm usually not a fan of sitting at the sushi bar and rather a regular table but I don't think omakase can be ordered there. Either way, omakase is basically a plate of sushi, sashimi or whatever the chef want to put together. You basically leave it up to the chef to create your meal. It seem to be more affordable than other restaurants that offer it too. Service is always attentative too. So that's a plus. read more

And we sat at the bar, because that is where HH is located. Sadly, the deals and pricing was on point, but the food was just subpar. The cheeseburger meat was just bland. The meatballs were better than the burger meat, but also pretty bland - I think the red sauce helped it a little but it was the same sauce for the meatballs and the fried cheese dipping sauce. The fried cheese was pretty good. And I felt the French fries were nice and crispy, right amount of salt, tasty. I expected meat to taste good in a steak house though. I ordered a drink, a well drink, I asked the bar tender if she could make a rum type punch with the well. She said she had a great recipe, but it also fell flat. Now, I gave them another shot and came during the Girl Dinner special which is a Wednesday night special where you get an espresso martini, salad, and crab ball for like $20. I have to say, IT ALL WAS TASTY! The waitress told us the salad dressing is homemade, and my gosh, I do still think about that dressing! I really liked the crab cake too, much better the apps from the happy hour menu I had. And that espresso martini, chefs kiss!

Each steak was cooked precisely to temperature and full of flavor. The lamb chops paired with carrots and brussels were well executed and balanced.

The bread service was a highlight, offering a nice variety of breads and accompaniments. The ribeye was cooked well and enjoyable, but it did not stand out from what I've experienced at other upscale steakhouses. The five-cheese couscous was the biggest disappointment, as it lacked the rich, flavorful profile its description suggested. While the service and presentation were appreciated, the overall dining experience did not justify the high expectations or the price point.

He was very attentive but not annoying. Food didn't take long at all. The inside has very nice decor. Once dinner was over, I asked Earl to suggest a sweet and fruity drink and he said what did I like? I said anything without pineapple and coconut. He then walked away and created this Strawberry/Peach/Lemon Drop - it was AMAZING! Earl was the BEST!!! When we were leaving, the security guard opened the door for us and was watching the waitress get to her car safely. I then left my purse and they called my phone 5 mins after I left and the security guard had it on his person waiting for me to return. The Morrow's staff pay attention to the tiny details and it seems like a family! I will definitely be back! Thank you!

We got there a little before they opened but since it was raining they let us in and we waited off the side until they officially opened. Let me start by saying the restaurant is gorgeous! The ambience was grown and sexy and definitely gave fine dining. The waitress was pleasant and gave recommendations because I had no idea what to get. We got the bread to start and OMG that bread was delicious! It was buttery, with a honey flavor and 2 spreads to use. I wanted to eat it all but knew I had to eat an actual dish lol. My husband and I shared a small plate-the wagyu tacos. Lets just say I woke up thinking about those tacos I ordered a medium prime rib eye & my husband ordered a medium rare filet. His filet was perfect but my ribeye was overcooked. They made me a new one with no problem & were very apologetic. The new steak was more medium rare than medium but I still ate it and it was good but fatty. We shared the seafood mac & cheese which we both agreed was the best we had ever had. It was a huge portion so we ended up taking some home (didnt last very long after getting home). Lastly, we ordered the praline crème brûlée....another thing I woke up thinking about Im already thinking about the next time! 10 out of 10!

RUMBA Island Inspired Cuisine & Rum Bar…read more 5257 Veterans Memorial Blvd, Metairie, LA 70006 #tonylameats I tried coming here the first time and the wait was packed, so I had to call it an early night. I'm glad I gave it another shot because this place was worth the return trip. The vibe immediately transports you to the Caribbean with colorful decor, island music, and a fun atmosphere. My foodie friend and I started with a couple of cocktails: the Caribbean Rum Punch and the Passion Fruit Piña Colada. Both were strong, refreshing, and definitely not shy on the rum. For appetizers, we ordered the Dominican Ribs, glazed with sweet chili, ginger, and soy. These disappeared fast and easily became one of my favorite bites of the night. I would come back just for the ribs alone! For entrées, we shared: Zydeco Redfish - Cajun grilled redfish topped with fried shrimp, garlic mashed potatoes, Creole reduction, and veggies. The red fish was cooked perfectly and was the standout dish for me. Island Ribeye - A 13oz ribeye marinated in pineapple ginger soy, served with whipped sweet potatoes and pistachios. Great flavor with a nice island twist. And of course, we had to get a side of fried plantains because you can never go wrong with plantains. Great food, strong drinks, and a fun atmosphere. I'll definitely be back to check out their happy hour soon. Tonylameats Approved

The service was friendly, and the overall experience left a great impression. My only minor complaint is that the dining area felt a bit cramped, especially when it was busy.

Highly recommend if you're looking for delicious Thai food in the area!

Lunch on a Monday with SIL. Arrived not long after they opened and it was already filling up…read more Seated immediately and drink order was taken ASAP. Ordered 1/2 doz chargrilled oysters and the meat pies. For some reason I did not realized the meat pies had ground beef in them; I remembered a different flavor profile. They were good but won't order them again; too many other choices. Chargrilled oysters, on the other hand, is now on my SIL's list of top fav foods. I usually eat mine raw, but these were not too salted and not overcooked. Good job, ACME! SIL ordered the 1/2 shrimp po boy, which was on her hit list of foods for the trip and I had the 1/2 hot sausage patty po boy. Both of us had the jambalaya, which was tasty but not overpowering. Her po boy was loaded with shrimp and I had her try my po boy, since she had never heard of the hot sausage. It was a winner with her as well! We had leftovers, of course. Things were hopping by the time we finished, and it was a bit to get our to go boxes, drink refills and check out, but we'd go back in a heartbeat.

I would return for sure to give other items a try.

This was my first time ordering from Parish Grill. I ordered via Uber Eats and picked it up myself…read more The restaurant is really cute and clean with a lot of parking. The staff were super friendly and accommodating. The wedge salad was nicely presented and tasted twice as good. It's actually half a head of iceberg, which is usually not what I'm used to when I order this kind of salad to go--the boxes usually aren't large enough! Very nice surprise. Generous amount of toppings as well as you can see in the photo. The pizza was also very good: crunchy crust, generous amount of toppings, and perfect temperature. It's probably the best cauliflower crust I've ever had. I was tempted to order something sweet, but I decided to behave myself. There's blueberry cheesecake Maybe next time! I will be back!! PS...My photos could have been better. Sorry!

Seriously, one of the best burgers I've had. I kept repeating out loud, "omg, this is so good" every time I took a bite. We also ordered the Cheesy Bacon fries and they tasted like a French fry version of a potato skin, which was amazing. Very small dining area (especially for my Mother-in-Law who uses a walker), but overall a great experience. I will 100% return. P.S. if the owner or manager reads this. We had Layla as our server, and she was super sweet. My Mother-in-Law was having a really difficult time getting from her chair to her walker, and she stepped in to help. We really appreciated that, so thank u, Layla!

The waffle was very good, light, fluffy, soft on the inside slight crisp on the outside. This was probably the best part of my meal. The eggs were just ok, taste like a little to much milk was added. My grits didn't come out with my food, so I had to wait a few minutes for them and boy was I excited. I love grits with my breakfast. So you can imagine my disappointment when I tasted the grits and all I could taste was milk and s. I love stone ground grits, so I was expecting them to so satisfying. They weren't. UGH, they had way to much dairy and tasted sweet. I'm not sure if they put sugar in them or not, but sweet grits are a No No. yikes! I couldn't eat more than two bites.
