One of the best places to eat uptown Nola

I have been a passionate connoisseur of Japanese food for over 20 years. Origami is a fusion of westernized Japanese cuisine that does not sacrifice too much of the authentic flavors and brings quality ingredients and generous portions. Take a look at some of my photos – the slices of fish are nice and thick and not overwhelmed by filler. Other things that we tried such as karaage and cucumber namasu were also really flavorful and well executed.

Great specials here. Fresh fish you won’t find most places. They have actual Wasabi! Friendly chefs with great presentations.

Very solid sushi but can get packed with college kids when schools in session. The outside tables are delightful when the weather is right. Get the truffle edamame appetizer and pay attention to the rotating specials on the board behind the sushi bar. There’s usually some great sleepers on there.

Oysters are in season and we enjoyed the raw oysters today on the beautiful plate in the picture! This is by far the best sushi in New Orleans! They have the freshest sashimi and everything is presented beautifully! The staff is very kind yet unobtrusive so you can enjoy your meal in pure serenity.

My go to favorite is their beef udom noodles but have great sushi, dumplings, and a stuffed shitaki mushroom.

There are some pretty good sushi places in New Orleans…Origami is in my top five for all around quality of fish, creativity in menu, the tuna tataki appetizer (which is divine) and restaurant ambience.

Large menu of rolls, however it appears many of them are copied from other local restaurants. Fish was fresh, but standard portions of sushi lacked correct garnishes. Service was chaotic on a Saturday night. I had no fewer than 3 waiters at my table. The space itself has a nice ambience and the bathroom was chic and clean.
