I ordered the Pan-Fried Gyoza and the Shrimp Hibachi. The Gyoza was browned perfectly and delicious. The Fried Rice included eggs, Vegetables were on point, and the Shrimp were coated in a delicious sauce and were the largest shrimp I have ever seen served in a Hibachi dish. I did notice on the menu that they source their shrimp from South America. Maybe that explains it. My nephew ordered some kind of rolls and was very impressed with the size and taste. We would both definitely return here and try more things on the menu.

After a disappointing experience at another Japanese restaurant in the Lake Charles area, we…read moredecided to try a place in Moss Bluff called Umami Kumo -- and I'm glad we did. The restaurant appears fairly new. It's on the smaller side, but very nice -- clean, neat, and welcoming. From the moment we sat down, it felt like a completely different experience. The sushi portions were generous, and every roll we ordered was full of flavor. Honestly, I was surprised. In a smaller town like Moss Bluff, I didn't go in with big expectations -- it was mostly about convenience. But this place exceeded them. We had a great meal, and while the bill was about what you'd expect, the quality made it absolutely worth it. If you're in the Lake Charles area -- and even if Moss Bluff isn't somewhere you'd normally think to go for Japanese food -- Umami Kumo is definitely worth a visit. Give it a shot

It is most definitely the freshest raw and cooked fish I've eaten in the area !!! The service is amazing as well , they always have smiling faces and welcome in each individual EQUALLY . I'm big on customer service so I love that even if the sushi was bad , the customer service always makes up for it, but I gotta say the sushi is NEVER bad . At all times of the day it's fresh and the price is always fair . Even the other items on the menu such as bang bang shrimp fried rice, vermicelli bowls, and the rice bowls are each very excellent. I LOVE the pandan latte it's so delicious and not to sweet , I highly recommend that you try it ! Each day at around 6:30 or 730 I believe the sushi is 25% off, which is great because they hate throwing it away and they want to sell it and sometimes they just even give it away because why throw out perfectly good food you know ? They make the sushi fresh every single day you can even get sushi made to order if you don't want what's in the refrigerator box but it's all still extremely fresh . I come here at least once a week with my fiancé and we love the place. i've never had tuna tartare but I tried it today and it did not disappoint. It was absolutely delicious. You'll see in the pictures. I'm gonna post !!! Thank you sushi boxx for being such an amazing restaurant !!

Our family sat down and my chair (out of all the chairs) and it made me lean forward and had to swap chairs. Waiter did get our orders for our drinks and gave us our salads and soups while we waited for more people to show up. We are a healthy family and 2 of us do NOT put lemon in our water. And we ALL love water rather than sodas. The WATER WAS AWFUL AND HAD A BAD AFTER TASTE. I even asked for bottle water which I would have paid for but they do NOT SERVE THE EASIEST THING CORRECTLY. Now the 2 of us need a soda. I waived and waived (my waiter was NO WHERE TO BE FOUND) and finally asked for 2 sodas and they sodas NEVER SHOWED UP... we were eating salads and the cook is here now and we STILL have NO DRINKS. After waiving to another waiter (not ours) I stated again and finally we received our sodas. Since I have a tough time swallowing I need drinks and my soda was empty instantly and it took forever for them to refill it as I had to repeat the awful process of getting a waiter. Waiter has vanished and barely see him. The cook was awesome and entertaining but I was do distracted talking to waiters and trying to survive (swallowing because I can choke with no drink) I missed very good parts of the hibachi because of this. Also when the cook got there we ALL had to move seats because one of our family members feet were constantly sliding because she sat at the end (by the cook) because the GREASE MADE IT VERY SLIPPERY Fix the water as it was awful and UN-DRINKABLE. And please have waiters NOT VANISH and especially purposely turn their back to you as they take other orders. Yes that happened also. And clean the floors.

9/18/2026: The absolute best bang for your buck at L'Auberge!…read more If you're looking for fantastic food, top-tier service, and speed that gets you right back to your casino plans, Asia checks every single box. No other restaurant inside L'Auberge offers this complete combination of speed, quality, value, and convenience. Here is what made our visits so memorable: The Egg Rolls (10/10): Whatever you do, do not skip the egg rolls! They are ridiculously good and served with a great sauce. We loved them so much that after leaving the blackjack table the next night, we came back just to get another order to go! Hunan Chicken & White Rice: Since they didn't have Kung Pao, they accommodated us by bringing out crushed peanuts on the side. The Hunan chicken was very good with a nice, satisfying kick to it--and their sticky white rice was fantastic and cooked perfectly. Lettuce Wraps: My friend tried the lettuce wraps (sorry, no photo!) and gave them rave reviews--they also had a nice little spicy kick. Speed & Service: The staff was exceptionally friendly and incredibly efficient. We had a concert to get to, and they had us served, fed, and out the door in plenty of time without ever making us feel rushed. Value & Convenience: For a sit-down restaurant inside a casino, the prices are very reasonable. Whether you want a quick sit-down meal in a great atmosphere or need to grab delicious take-out to take back to your room or the casino floor, this is the spot. For me, it's all about fast service, great food, and getting right back to my casino activities. Asia nails it every time--we will definitely be back! A note for L'Auberge management: I really hope leadership is paying attention. The Golden Nugget is completely outclassing L'Auberge when it comes to dining options. L'Auberge desperately needs to step up its game, and bringing in more fantastic spots like Asia would be a great start. While you're at it, replacing Johnny Sánchez with an authentic, quality Mexican restaurant should be top priority. Coming from Texas, we're admittedly spoiled with incredible Tex-Mex and Latin cuisine, but Johnny Sánchez is truly disappointing--I've eaten there multiple times and have never had a remotely good meal. Has anyone else noticed the overall decline in dining quality across L'Auberge lately?

As someone who grew up Southern, cornfed meat, potatoes and gravy redneck, it took my wife years to…read moreconvince me to finally try something at this restaurant. Anytime we visited the casino, she would go to Asia and I would go across the hall to get a hot dog. I finally gave in a couple years ago and joined her at Asia. While I'm still a picky eater, I must say I was astounded at the quality and freshness of the food we were served. My must haves are the firecracker shrimp and General Sam's Shrimp. The firecracker shrimp have the perfect amount of creamy heat banged with the present crisp of the fried shrimp. It's not overwhelmingly spicy but just right if you like a little heat. The creaminess of the sauce helps balance the spice. If you're up for it add a glass of ice water and order their best Saki to truly enjoy the experience. The General Saos shrimp is equally amazing. It's a delicate balance of sweet and savory with a hint of heat. Admittedly, I wouldn't be mad if it had a little more heat but my perspective is usually after spending hours in the casino and I'm looking to burn the demons of sin from my soul with spices. The spousal unit typically orders Hunan Chicken which I've sampled and it is definitely as savory and fresh. I lean toward dishes with a little spice and heat but it is very flavorful. The waitstaff is always very attentive no matter the hour and this restaurant is now our must visit every time we visit Lake Charles no matter where we stay.
