Sushi Takumi Japanese Restaurant — Restaurant in New Orleans

I dont usually leave reviews but felt like i had to for this place. The staff was incredibly warm and friendly when I first entered.

The staff made the sushi on the spot. The ingredients were incredibly fresh. The sushi was perfectly placed and well constructed.

The restaurant is small and cozy, and gives off the old school diner vibe but much cleaner and with sushi. To be clear, the restaurant is very very clean. I think the business model is takeout centered but it's still a great environment to eat in person.

The restaurant doesn't serve alcohol, but it's BYOB and about a block away from Rouses.

The restaurant is also quiet which makes ot stand out from a lot of other sushi...

I came here because a friend in the hospital wanted some sushi. I received excellent service. I asked for help to choose a broad selection of sushi. Every roll was immaculately made and delicious. The House Steak roll......delicious. The Hawaii roll.....delicious. The Takumi roll that was suggested was delicious. Winter roll is delicious, as was the Hurricane roll. There are a few more rolls I want to try. I would definitely go back. There are a few spicy rolls I want to sample and I will get the House Steak roll again. Will try the Po-boy...

I would have to pay way more for this kind of quality back home! I cannot emphasize enough what a great...
