We love the "all you can eat" (AYCE) deal at Sushi Nami. Great variety, nice ambiance, and we always finish with dessert. You really can't beat it!

This is a well-decorated Asian restaurant with great service, and quick cooking preparations. The establishment itself is pretty large, and has separate dining rooms, in the event you reserve for a special/private event. I ordered from the "all you can eat" portion of the menu (which is a pretty large variety to choose from, and is not limited to just sushi). You pay one price for an adult ($33.99 on a Sunday), and can order as many items and servings as you'd like, from the aforementioned menu. In my opinion, this was a great deal, especially for the quality and quickness of the food! Because of the above, I was able to try 5 different types of sushi rolls (you can choose either 4 pieces, or 8 pieces), and I'd recommend 4 pieces so you could try just about any/everything. There are also photos on the menu to help you decide, if you're a visual person. Here's what I had: Edamame (the Cajun + garlic seasoned version, which was $1 more) - it was properly seasoned and super good! The gyozo/dumplings were good too; I'd recommend ordering a side of teriyaki sauce, as it only comes with a peanut-type sauce. The shrimp fried rice was also pretty good, and comes in a smaller portion. As for the sushi rolls, they were all delicious, but I'll rank them in order of my favorite (all of them were speciality rolls) #1 Kiss Me roll - it was so good (the best sushi roll out of all 5 I tried) that I forgot to take a photo! This one comes in pieces of 5, and the pieces are even thicker/bigger than the other rolls. #2 Fleur-di-lis sushi roll - loved the shredded crab meat that was layered across the top. #3 Godzilla sushi roll - loved the shrimp tempura within, and the sauce that was drizzled on top. #4 Lion King sushi roll - this was pretty good as well, and had the perfect amount of sauce layered across the top. #5 Spider sushi roll - another good one, and the avocado definitely stood out the most (if you're a big fan of it).

Sushi nami restored my hope in sushi in New Orleans. as seated in 10-15 minutes on a Friday night table of 3. Sushi quality was pretty good! I'm happy they had sashimi options because their nigiri is pretty heavy on the rice, but the salmon cheese was by far our favorite. My favorite sashimi was yellow tail. The scallop was interesting looking but still tasted like scallop. I really liked the fried calamari too. Too bad it was no meat Friday because I wanted to try the karaage. I wouldn't get the salmon skin again, maybe if it were crispier. Fried rice has a little sweetness overall good and standard for fried rice Stir fry udon was pretty typical tasting as well Soft drinks included in AYCE. Pretty decent price for AYCE. Would want to come back for a lunch AYCE: Forgot to try the ice cream!

The food is amazing and it's all you can eat or à la carte. The ambiance is so pretty and well thought out. The service is amazing and they are so helpful and accommodating.

I give this place 5 stars! It was delicious, and they do all you can eat sushi. The portions are smaller, but you can order as much as you want within a 2-hour time frame. We had such a great time beautiful ambiance, super accommodating staff, and definitely kid-friendly.

Officially our new favorite AYCE sushi experience in the New Orleans area. There have been a few new places like this popping up lately and after visiting a handful of them, Sushi Nami is our favorite by far. It's a great way to try some new selections. They have lively clean feeling decor, great selections on the menu, fresh fish and kind efficient service. We will be back, and we are bringing friends!!

This is the first sushi place in New Orleans that really impressed me. I love the decor of the restaurant; it has a nice cherry blossom aesthetic. The sushi itself was really good. The nigiri has a good presentation and flavor, especially the spicy tuna. As a nigiri lover I was impressed with the freshness and good flavor. The smoked salmon nigiri was buttery and flavorful. The server brought our food in good time and was very attentive throughout the day. Also the ice cream is really good. I would say the price for the AYCE is a pretty good deal especially at lunch. This place gets a perfect score from me. I will be coming back on my next visit.

Late lunch..

My cousin and I tried this place for lunch. It's a great option for trying a lot of different things without paying a crazy price. Fyi..they do charge if you don't finish eating certain items. They bring things out really quickly and in small portions. Good concept to allow you to taste a bit of everything. Everything was pretty good except the scallops and fried rice. They were fried and tasted weird...not like a scallop. Some things on the menu are not included in the all you can eat price but there are still PLENTY of options. I would visit again. Free parking is always a plus too.

Beautiful salmon sashimi atop a bed of snow.

It's not often I can offer my highest praise to an all you can eat restaurant but Sushi Nami is simply AWESOME! Each dish is prepared by artisans that see to it that each dish looks like artwork. I have had many great meals there and they are happy to keep the dishes coming until you are satisfied. I've had meals at nobu and local sushi places that run 5X the price of Sushi Nami but truly, the difference is negligible. The staff is awesome, the restaurant is cool and stunning, it's clean and modern and I would eat there several times a week, if time permitted. A wonderful gem in Metairie!

The all you can eat dishes were very tasty. We ordered appetizers, soups, Nigiri, rolls, and sashimi. The interior of the restaurant was beautifully decorated. Our server was very kind and attentive.

For the very low price of just $33 for all you can eat sushi plus one beverage of your choice (including your first glass of wine or sake), it's not a bad deal at all. All of the sushi is not that great and some of the other menu items, like the fried rice, gyoza, and fried scallop, aren't really good at all. But I'm sure you can find a couple rolls you like since it's so many to choose from. The service here is pretty amazing, they are very attentive and continuously check on you throughout your visit. The restaurant itself is absolutely beautiful and very family and solo diner friendly.

Walking in made me think of something in Vegas/so festive! When we arrived it wasnt busy at all but there was a party in the event room across the way. Our waitress Lacy was super sweet and made sure we understood exactly how the AYCE situation worked. The options were great and although some things took longer because of the party-the waitress was very apologetic & made sure to check on things that seemed to be taking too long. Everything I had was delicious except I did not enjoy the sashimi squid (I was just being adventurous lol). My faves were the Rainbow Roll, eel & yellow fin sashimi and my shrimp and noodles. My husband had the cold sake and said it was good. I'd definitely come back!

Fried Oreo

This is my fifth time at Sushi Nami for all you can eat sushi. The ambience of the place is really cool and the workers are very nice and attentive! As for the sushi, I feel like each time I come it's a different experience. Half the time, the sushi has been so fresh and amazing and the other half it's mid. I would say this is a good spot to come if you're looking to feast and the fried Oreos were bomb (but an extra fee). AYCE is $33/ person which is comparable to sushi masa which is $35/person (but more consistent in my opinion).

Yami Hibachi - Snow crab rolls

This is a newer eatery located in a small strip mall on Airline. As expected, it's a casual,…read morequick-bites type of place. It's clean, reasonably priced, and located conveniently too! I tried the hibachi grilled shrimp, fried rice, snow crab salad, and a drink ($17 for the whole thing). It was good, zero complaints! It was 16 pieces of grilled shrimp on a bed of salad. The fried rice was well seasoned. The snow crab salad on the side in a little cup was pretty good too (yes, it's imitation crab, they can't serve real crab for that price lol) One thing to note, it's very casual here, so it is mostly self-serve. They will bring the food out to you, but you will have to get your own drink and bus your own table afterwards

We decided to try this place because the menu looked nice with many choices. The restaurant was…read morevery clean and has about 10- 4 seat tables. You order from a Kiosk at the counter which I am not a fan of and it wasn't easy to navigate. Between all of us, we tried some sushi rolls, Hibachi fried rice with Hibachi chicken and shrimp. The chicken, shrimp and steak were all cooked good but the rice had no flavor. One of us had a fried noodle and steak bowl. The grandkids had the sushi dual combo which is really a good price and they loved it. The snow crab salad was good but a bit mushy. I think this would be a go to spot for anyone nearby who loves sushi. Very reasonably priced.

Kenji Omakase will be a new annual special occasion go to. Japanese Omakase experience and style, a one of a kind food experience where every course is a harmonious blend of flavors, textures and eye appeal. The sushi chef talks you through each course after he places it on you platter. I asked if these were supposed to be eaten by hand if you wanted to, he agreed most people traditionally eat these that way. The flavors were buttery and tangy, textures delicate and sometimes a small crunch with fried scallions etc. We had tuna, ocean trout that was Similar to salmon but a different shade of orange, scallops and finished with waygu beef. It was amazing with each course the flavors seem to improve. A great experience, if you are any type of sushi fan or even on the fence, this could easily make you a sushi lover. I give this a complete recommendation. Try Kenji you will be very happy you did. The ambiance was fun also traditional Japanese. I may have Mis-named a few photos but know they are all just incredible journeys across your palate, hard to describe, melting with texture and flavors.
