    Sea salt white fish sashimi, butter garlic scallops, kimchi udon
    Sa'Rah H.

    OMG is all I can say...ok actually there's more. I went to Daiwa with my friend and his daughter after church and we totally pigged out. Since it was my first time and they're regulars, I let them order and they picked all of the best items on the menu. They ordered the shrimp tempura, spicy kimchi udon (my favorite), the butter baked scallop with garlic butter sauce (sooo good), Hamachi Kama( broiled Yellow Tail neck) with white rice and the sea salt white fish sashimi (amazing). I ordered the marine roll just because- everything we had was phenomenal. I was absolutely wowed and I'm now, a life long fan of Daiwa! This was an authentic Japanese experience and I can say that as someone who's been to Japan and had authentic Japanese food. We enjoyed a very calm, clean minimalist setting and food that I'll be thinking about until I can get back to the restaurant for more. My friends new knew our server personally and she provided excellent service. I would 100% recommend Daiwa in Marrero. It was phenomenal.

    Sushi

    Daiwa had such fresh sushi and so many different kinds of rolls and sushi to choose from! A friend and I shared the squid steak and it was freshly served as soon as it was made. I ordered two rolls - one was a salmon roll and another was one of their special creations. A friend ordered a crunchy roll with shrimp that was topped of with lemon and it tasted great. Everything was so freshly made. In addition to their numerous sushi roll options, they also have lunch and dinner specials. The menu is huge so I'll definitely be coming back in the future to try some other items as well!

    Great foods

    Foods are great, and the drinks are unique with diverse options to choose. Service is good & fast as well. Ambiance is nice, suitable for hanging out with friends, family and dating The cons: expensive than expected

    Yellowtail Jalapeno- better than nobu!
    Victoria P.

    I've been here a few times because it's close to a friends house. It's not aesthetically pleasing by any means and there's always 1-2 gnats flying around every single time I go. The sushi is always tasty though. I really enjoy the yellowtail jalapeño appetizer that they have at this location. (They don't have it at the Metairie location)

    The sauce for the Pepper Tuna is amazing!

    We came for an early dinner at 4:30 on Saint Patricks day. There were plenty of tables and no wait, but an hour later the tables were filling up. The decor is lovely, creative and tasteful. Everything was spotless and clean. We started with a bottle of Pino Grigio, the edamame and seaweed salad. We are from the west coast and a sauced edamame was something different for us - deep flavor, spicy and so delicious. I could drink it. I suggested to our wonderful server, Josh, that they should make a bloody mary from that sauce recipe. Delicious! Later, we ordered several rolls. The Peppered Tuna, Tsurai Special, Softshell Crab Roll, a Rock & Roll and a Crawfish Roll. All were excellent - fresh, succulent, delightfully crafted and served with care and with pride. Again, the sauces - especially the sauce for the Peppered Tuna and the edamame are worth asking for on the side. We preferred them to the usual soy sauce and wasabi. Altogether, a perfect sushi dinner in a lovely restaurant.

    The food is always consistently delicious there. Best Japanese fried rice on the westbank.

    Honestly, Daiwa is probably my favorite sushi place on the Westbank just because the quality is their sushi has always been top tier for me. We try to go here every few months just because it's a little out of the way for us but I swear, any time you come here it's always so busy. The time before last that we tried coming to eat here, there was a 45 min wait and we ended up leaving but I still crave Daiwa sushi all the time! The last time we went there, the sushi was a little loose and kept falling apart on me when I picked it up and I didn't love that but the taste makes up for it for me. I always try and get it cut in 8 pieces rather than 6 just because the 6 pieces are so big to eat. I love that they have so many pictures of their sushi on the menu because it's really helpful in figuring out what you want. I actually hosted my bachelorette party in the back with karaoke, which was pretty great! I loved it and I think everyone else did too. Would definitely recommend.

    Ceviche salad.
    Zhaoyi L.

    I have been there two times so far. One time I was with a small group of friends and the other time was with a large group of colleagues (it was actually for an event). I ordered their salad but different kinds for both of my visits - Tuna Tataki and Ceviche salads. They were good! Tuna tataki and sashimi mixed were at a really good portion. The dressing wasn't heavy. I really loved it because I was able to have a better taste of tuna and sashimi.

    Best sushi on the westbank! Daiwa special roll is the best and you can also get a half order of it since it's so big!
