3 /5 Bridget T: Dropped by with some friends around 5:30 for dinner, and overall it was a mixed bag. We tried a few sushi rolls that were just okay — a little heavy on the rice (my friend pointed that out right away). The panko chicken dinner, though, was a winner — super tasty, and the chicken quality was spot-on. The rice bowl had good flavor but could’ve used a little more kick. Two of us even asked for extra spice, but honestly, it didn’t seem like any was added.
The seaweed salad, on the other hand, was fresh and really good — no complaints there.
Now, here’s where things went downhill: the wine. We asked for a wine list, but our server just mentioned they only had “house wine.” We probably should’ve pressed for more info, but the place was getting busier, so we just went with it. What came out was the tiniest pour — maybe 3 ounces, in the smallest glass ever. It looked cute, at least? We laughed it off and figured, hey, it’s happy hour, let’s just get another round.
Big mistake. When we asked how much the wine was, she said $8 or $9 per glass! We were shocked — definitely not worth it for that tiny pour.
So, overall: the food was good, and we’d probably come back for a few dishes, but the wine situation was such a letdown it kind of killed the vibe. We had to buy 2 glasses to get a glass of wine!
My advice: you have been in NOLA for a while now you need to have wine glasses that suit a proper dinner and create a wine list. PSA the Wine wont go bad …
