About this restaurant

The uber cool sushi bar and grill concept that began in Lafayette in 2000 and made it mark in Baton Rouge in 2005 is now a New Orleans destination. Our menu ranges from simple expected traditional sushi to westernized hybrid sushi to grill dishes that make for a great dining experience. On the 1st floor of the historic Pan Am building on St Charles & Poydras we are walking distance from your hotel, apt or sporting event. Make us your sushi spot in the Central Business District.

    Food was okay. Appetizer was supposed to be fried eggplant and shrimp in a sweet soy sauce…hardly any shrimp and egg plant wasn’t breaded/crispy.

    We had a delicious dinner, and we’re very pleased that the restaurant wasn’t noisy when we were there, which was relatively early.

    The lady at the front desk never smiled when we walked into Tsumani nor when she seated us. We ordered from the special menu which was uninspiring.

    Hostess was very rude and told us that she could not honor our reservation because they were too busy. Told her they shouldn’t list reservations they can’t honor, and was told she couldn’t remove reservations from open table. Solution: hire a different hostess.

    First time visiting. Beautiful place but it took 45 mins to get our main meal. Will I return? Yes because of the view and the food.
