We ment to visit this place a while back but The Girly decided she was too hungry to wait to get here… So we went to ANOTHER sushi place close by, which, in all honesty, was horrible in every way. But for some reason, she decided she wanted sushi on this cold evening so there we went. Small place. Almost no decorations. Simple and basic. App: We got the squid salad. It was great but was not house made. I learned this after asking the waitress about it. She asked one of the owners, but we wittnessed the male owner being rude to our amazing waitress about her being behind the bar to ask my questuion(Seriously, dude… don’t be an a-hole to your amazing employees). The girly ordered the Tornado, a shrimp and avocado roll covered with potato strings and deep fried. She also got the california roll. Both were really good. I tried one bite and the textures are so odd but also so good. She loved them. I got the crunchy roll)(amazing) and the crunchy spicy roll(A roll I ordered from the OTHER sushi place that came out totally disgusting). It was awesome this time. Seriously, awesome. You would not taste the two different versions and think it was the same thing. THISISTHEBESTWESTBANKSUSHI. Seriously. At least it’s the best we’ve had. If owner man is not the baddie he seemed, then it will be a 5 star place.

Reviewing a sushi restaurant is relatively straightforward. Do they use fresh quality ingredients? Is the preparation and assembly interesting and appropriate? Is the service prompt and pleasant? Are the prices reasonable? Oishii gets top ratings across the board. Highly recommended. A hidden gem on the Westbank.

I have friends that have eaten here & we’re pleased w/the sushi. I decided to bring my two boys for lunch today. We usually go to Fuji Hana on Lapalco & love it, but wanted to try something new. We were really disappointed that they don’t offer a lunch menu! My son always gets shrimp hibachi at Fuji Hana for $ 10 and here it was $ 16.95! I understand u get a lot more food w/a regular menu, but honestly no one NEEDS that much food. Plus, I wld never pay that for a lunch. We ended up leaving and coming to Fuji Hana!

I am a sushi lover, so when I saw a place open so close to home I was excited. I tried this place because of the great reviews. I ordered my food to go and was told 10 minutes. When I got there 15 min later it wasn’t crowded, however my food wasn’t ready because the chef forgot to make it. I ordered 3 rolls, fried rice and a salad. I waited for my fried rice and realized later that they did not give me my salad. The waitress they have three needs some training. I will say the sushi was good but not the fries rice. Maybe because he made it in a rush after he forgot. I’ll try them again since they just opened. Maybe I’ll dine in.

I really wasn’t going to do it. I wasn’t going to be «that person» who gives a place 5 stars on the first visit, even though every one else who has reviewed it has given it 5 stars. I’m really picky about my sushi and there’s no way this place deserves 5 stars already… except that it does. I stopped in for a late lunch and I was immediately greeted and told to sit anywhere. The man who greeted me came right over and took my drink order. My usual to order a couple of special rolls, that way I get a good taste of what the restaurant has to offer. I decided to get the Okinawa roll and the DeGaulle roll. With spicy tuna, shrimp tempura, tuna, salmon, avocado and mango, the Okinawa has a little bit of everything, so I knew it was a «must». The DeGaulle had salmon, spicy tuna, snowcrab, topped with their house sauce. The first thing I noticed about these rolls– they are HUGE. At $ 13 each, they are well worth the money, especially if you are dining with a friend. Of the two rolls that I ordered, I would say that I preferred the DeGaulle. Both of the rolls were delicious, but the DeGaulle roll was a little lighter. The Okianwa was tasty but had A LOT going on. That’s not a complaint; it was really good and I would order it again. I was pleased because I had plenty of leftovers, so I finished the rest of my order for dinner. The service here is really impeccable. The waiter was extremely attentive and checked on me regularly and was quick to refill my iced tea. He even brought me an iced tea«to go», after I paid my check, and I thought that was a really nice gesture. I would absolutely return to Oishii. I will have to go back and get some of their sashimi, so that I can compare it to my other favorite Westbank sushi place: Tennou. I am sure if you give this place a try, you won’t leave disappointed.

So delicious and super close to the farm. So fresh! Highly recommend! The $ 9.95 two rolls special with soup and salad was just perfect! Lovely service, lovely space and lovely people.

We stopped by for lunch to give the new place a try. The decorations are fairly bare-bones but the place was clean and tidy. Getting to the main event… Sushi. We had some raw fish as well as sushi rolls. The Escolar was very tasty with maybe a little bit too much seasoning on it. The role I had could have been a meal all to itself. I did not have a ‘out of body’… ‘Oh my god this is amazing’ sushi experience, however for a great place to stop by on the West Bank it is a five star.

Really good food. First visit got off to a slow start but once I figured out their process we sailed on through.

Had sushi rolls and they were all fresh and tasty. Tried the California, Spicy Tuna, Avocado Tuna and Spicy Salmon rolls. They were all great, but best of all is the location. It’s really nice to have good sushi so close to home.

Thank god. Sushi in Orleans Parish on the WB! The price: Qty ratio was amazing. We had 4 rolls and a squid salad for $ 40! Three of the rolls were specialty rolls. Delicious! This will be a weekly stop for me.

Had the bento box with sushi and teriyaki beef. Comes with choice of miso or clear soup. Includes house salad(house thousand island dressing), 1 each of salmon, tuna, yellowtail and crab stick sushi. Beef very tender. Wasabi was soft and tasty. Teriyaki was a little thick(almost like barbecue) and flavorful with sesame seeds. Service was spectacular! Rapidly brought our drinks. Could have been in and out in under 30 min if we wanted to. Price was very reasonable for all the food.

Going to school across the street, I’ve been just CRAVING for a closer sushi spot. Fuji Hana and Daiwa are such a far drive. This is definitely a really good new sushi restaurant that just sprouted up. Very friendly workers and very prompt service. I feel like family here

I have tried many sushi restaurants and Oishii Sushi House is probably one of the best I’ve had in a while and Iam so glad they opened around my area. The fish was fresh and their spicy mayo was delicious. I always have spicy mayo on my rolls and this restaurant may have the BEST spicy mayo in the city. And the salad dressing was also delicious. My friends enjoyed the hibachi they ordered and the Okinawa and Southern roll we’re delicious and the tuna and beef tataki. We also had the spicy edamame and baked salmon appetizer which tasted great. I definitely will be coming back.
