“Nice little sushi place. Pricey for the portions. Portions are very small, the presentation on the sushi was plain. Single sushi orders had a better presentation. The rice bowls had a good portion and presentation. Everything we tried was very good. The spicy sushi we tried was not at all spicy but was good. The salmon belly was really good and I recommend this highly. I was not highly impressed with the whole experience because I left hungry and would not return here for a second trip. The sushi portions are very small.“

“This little hidden gem has the best combo bang mi in the city! The seafood soup is sometimes the best depending on the day. But really I have a defined palette and am a harsh critic when it comes to food having spent 30 plus years in feeding high end palettes and traveling abroad. This is the best banh mi locally!“

“Best dining experience I've had in a while. The quality of both service and food was spectacular! Our server was great and she gave me a suggestion for a sushi roll, the Tuna Tsurai, which I enjoyed. Another favorite from my dinner was the Kimchee Octopus salad and the white fish tuna that came with our tricolor sashimi. My partner's favorite was the scallops and thought the enoki mushrooms went well with it.Unfortunately I forgot our server's name, but believe it started with a D (Delene? Sorry!) She was fantastic. Richard the bartender made us fantastic drinks!!!The only thing that felt out of place were the many TVs in the restaurant. It didn't effect anything negatively at all but that stood out.I am excited to come back and eat more delicious sushi.Wheelchair accessibility: Elevator“

“Freshest sushi I've ever had!! My son recommended Kannu to my friend and me for sushi dinner. We shared several of the rolls (you can order half-rolls) and from the first bite everything was fresh and delicious. Service was fantastic too! I highly recommend Kannu if you are looking for a quick dinner in Metairie!Parking: Limited number of spots in front, but a parking lot on the side helps.“

“It was my first time there, and plenty to choose from. I had the stir fry noodles with seafood but were very sparse with the seafood for the price I paid. It should have been more shrimp. It was good. Staff is extremely nice and friendly.“

“Unagi & Sushi is an overall good Japanese restaurant. We had the Hibachi Steak Lunch which was descent and reasonably priced. I can't help but compare it to the Hibachi Filet Lunch that I had at another restaurant. That's not really a fair comparison, but the Hibachi Filet Lunch special here was $20. That's just a bit too much to spend on an everyday lunch. So one star deducted just for the lunch prices. Overall, a good experience, though and I'll likely go back.“

“The food is very good but I find the service lately just hasn't been the same. I used to come here a lot more frequently. I tried take out recently and half my order was missing and so I had to come back. I would recommend dining in instead of taking out for this place.“

“Doesn't look like much but it is incredible! The spicy tuna was by far my favorite and is one of the best spicy rolls that I've ever had! It was a full piece of tuna that was seasoned rather than a purée mush. The shaggy dog and California roll were really good as well! I'm not sure if I would actually eat there but my to-go order was fresh and relatively fast for a sushi place. 10/10 recommend!“

“Food was very good. Only reason I gave it 4 was because I was camping the toilet 20 minutes later, but maybe that wasn't their fault.Server was nice and all, but forgot to get us some of the sushi we marked on the sheet.Good price for the amount of food you get with the lunch hibachi.“
