Definitely a jewel in the rough and something not expected to find as far south. Good quality food. read more

The sashimi tasted off and when I told the server they did nothing about it and still charged us for it. It didn't make me sick, but it shouldn't have been served. The rest was okay but nothing great and tased the same as grocery store sushi. read more

You get served quick and food comes out fast. Food is good. The rolls are good. My fav is the mango roll.

The food portions are reasonable and the taste is excellent. The lunch service is quick and friendly.

Good service by our waitress. Food was tasty and reasonably priced. Only wish the other wait staff and sushi chefs didn't have a loud conversation right next to our table. Ambiance is typical Asian, with the obligatory fish tank by the entrance and dragon and geisha dolls. Not much to choose from in Galliano, so this is a solid choice for dinner. read more

Jinsan Sushi Restaurant - Filet Mignon Hibachi dinner - Sushi Bars Near Me - Galliano, Louisiana

Couldn't decide between going here or a different restaurant in town. So, after dining at the other place we swung by here to get 2 rolls to go. Honestly, I thought each roll had an off taste. I went ahead and ate them anyway and the good news is that I didn't get sick. I didn't give it fewer stars cause they were nice enough and quick enough and maybe it was just an off night. read more

Let's start with the customer service - the staff here is all so wonderful and welcoming! After only a couple of times they will remember you and treat you like fam. Even if it's your first try, they are so kind and friendly, making everyone feel at home soon as they enter through the doors. Smiles and good vibes no matter what time you come by! The food - so incredible. The sushi rolls all taste and look super fresh and vibrant! The flavors all come together like art and hit every taste bud. We usually stick to the rolls but last night we changed it up and got the egg drop soup and some ramen which was so yummy! Especially that egg drop soup, the texture and taste was on point. The rolls were amazing as usual, we got the jinsan roll and lion roll last night. But we've tried so many different kinds and they never disappoint. Not only is the taste on point, the presentation is not to be taken lightly. The food is always presented so nicely, there's so much variety from our sushi being served upon a "boat", to cute little trinkets on the side, even the veggies are always presented beautifully! They really take the extra time to make your food look as good as it tastes. Great food, great vibe, great presentation! read more

Jinsan Sushi Restaurant - Lion roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - Galliano, Louisiana

We were on the island on a Sunday night not realizing every food place was closed. So we found this place on Yelp. They allowed us to order over the phone knowing we may be alittle after closing . The edamame was plain, but great tasting. We ordered the Jazz roll and snow crab naroto which were delicious! Just know the jazz roll has raw tuna (which I didn't think to ask). Will stop by again next time going to the island read more

Very good must you must try the specials And the service was great Lunch was a quick meal read more

Jinsan is actually a great restaurant. But serving imported shrimp, in a community that was born of shrimp fishing is insulting and is a fatal error. The irony is that if they switched to local wild caught, domestic shrimp, their bottom line would improve, as would the quality of their seafood dishes. I do eat there from time to time, but not nearly as much as I would if Jinsan supported the community that supports them. With wild caught, Louisiana shrimp I'd give them a 5 star rating. Knowing that they serve imported, inferior, and possibly unsafe shrimp I struggle to give them a 2. Jinsan, I hope you read this and make changes that support your community. If so I look forward to changing my rating to a 5 star. read more

To my surprise, the sushi here is pretty good! This place deserves more credit than what other reviews have rated it. For it's quality in sushi and presentation, I would continue coming here if I'm in the mood for sushi (and if I'm in the area). Besides, there aren't that many other choices. My favorite sushi dish here is the lobster rolls. It's made from real lobster and comes to you in a nice platter. It is however, one of their more expensive choices on the menu. Alternatively you can order fried rice or a bento box. The bento box did not fill me up, but then again I do eat a lot. Decor on the outside is nothing to be proud of. It's as ghetto as it gets, but inside gets better. It's not a grand palace, but their attempt on a Japanese atmosphere is noticed. Not bad for Louisiana. The service can be quite horrible if you aren't ordering Hibachi. They are attentive, but the food can come out slow if there is a large party and they may get your order mixed up. On two occasions, our sushi orders were mixed up on one big plate. It was nicely presented, but two people can't share the food if they sit on far sides of a table. 11/21/2014 Update I tried the Hibachi two weeks in a row because my group wanted to go again. I order the chicken fried rice ($19) each time. You get a salad, hot soup, fried rice, meat, two pieces of shrimp, and a show! The chef that cooks the meal and does the trick is young but he isn't bad. You can tell he tries to entertain the crowd. Not much is different from your typical hibachi show (knife tricks, volcano, and catching broccoli in your mouth). read more

Excellent sushi and hibachi cooking. Unique maki rolls that highlight local ingredients.- for the most part. Been enjoying their sushi for at least 10 years! read more

I've been staying in the area and had two meals here. This place is a gem in the fast food wasteland down here. Fresh food, attractively presented and reasonably priced. I had a bento box for both lunch and dinner and they were both beautiful. Portions were large. The interior is bright and attractive and the wait staff is friendly. I'll be back. read more

Good Choice of seafood. Service was friendly and quick. Price a bit high but the quality and freshness of sushi can compensate it definitely come back. read more

The food is great and the service is great too! It's connected to Happy Games Bar and they serve food in the bar also (even hibachi). 10/10 recommend. read more

Wasn't expecting much but was absolutely amazed by the end. Every plate was absolutely stunning and the food was great. I was never a fan of sushi but after trying the mango one I was blown away and now it's my go to plate. read more

The waitress called my sister in law Fat and Ugly. And still made them pay their bill. We together payed almost $300 for 6 people. Pricey and not so good food. read more

Overall, if you have a sushi craving waiting to head out to your boat, it's worth the stop and well worth saving yourself from driving all the way to Houma for one of the other sushi bars. It is somewhat overpriced, but very good quality and very nice large cuts for the sushi (almost two bite pieces of nigiri). Clueless wait staff, but the sushi chef more than makes up for their ineptitude. My only real complaint was being served chinese jasmine tea with my sushi/sashimi combo. Seems to be a fairly new place though, and with their location on the bayou perhaps I'm being too tough on them. I'll give them another try next time I'm in town. read more

Jinsan Sushi Restaurant - Sushi Bars Near Me - Galliano, Louisiana

Great sushi & the lunch hibachi plate is pretty good. I was disappointed there wasn't more of a variety of vegetables though. Filet mignon as my meat was very tender. Crab Rangoons weren't anything special sadly. We enjoy it here, sometimes it's a little warm inside if u go right at lunch time. read more

Noodle soup was delicious, appetizer came out after main dishes. There Was Food on the floor under the tables, that I'm guessing was left there for the small roach walking around. Waitresses were nice and courteous when you could get them away from their social gatherings. Surprisedly enough the food was prompt. Sushi didn't hold together, was falling apart when sat on the table, but it was tasty. Seemed pricy. read more

Excellent every single time. Funky Monkey is THE way to start. Great rolls, both traditional and specialty. The staff is always nice and very accommodating. read more

Okay so we went on a Thursday at around 5 pm. We were the only people in the restaurant. We normally go to Go Fish but figured we try something else in the area. Staff was bad. Crappy attitudes all around like we were an inconvenience. Food was well below par for the price. If your thinking Sushi, just go to Go Fish. read more

This is my favorite place to get sushi as they have a large selection of tuna rolls, my favorite. They are the only sushi and hibachi restaurant for 30 or so miles. The restaurant and bar are pretty nice and the staff is friendly. The hibachi is limited to only two grills but the service is usually pretty quick. If you order 3+ rolls, they will bring your sushi out on a decorative wooden tray in the form or a bridge or boat. read more

As another user posted, I was surprised at how good the sushi was at Jinsan, especially since the outside is kind of sketchy. I live in the area and it's much quicker than going to Houma for basically the same thing. I've never been let down by Jinsan- whether I ate hibachi or sushi. Their take-out is always fast, and the owners are very friendly. My favorite rolls are the Jazz Roll and the Veterans Roll. Also, the bar is the nicest in the area. read more

Best sushi and hibachi on the bayou!! Great, quick service! I would highly recommend this restaurant. 10/10

I stop by here every night before crew change to go offshore. It's one of the highlights of what's usually a long and annoying trip. I can say it's better most similarly-prices sushi places I've been to in Houston or Atlanta. Service is great, food is fantastic, and there is something for everybody. read more

Went to the Cut Off location for the first time. Was very disappointed, not only my order was wrong, needless to say ive had better. I ordered the chicken hibachi dinner, and was given chicken teriyaki plate with brown rice. The wait staff was very busy, only stopping at our table once. So i dealt with what i had, and the taste was very...bland. I hate writing reviews like this, but i know feedback is key. read more

Before Jinsan moved to its current location, I was one of their biggest fans, so when my wife suggested a sushi night, of course I drove straight to the new location. My expectation was that of the same quality and service we'd come to know and love, and that expectation was NOT fulfilled. From inattentive wait staff to watered down drinks, diminished portions (at the original-sized prices, of course) to corner cutting preparation, everything was a disappointment. Even the squid steak; formerly a bubbling hot marriage of rich and thick teriyaki glazed over crispy onions, broccoli, and carrots topped with a perfectly tender seared squid, was now a vaguely warm pile of limp squid and onions seemingly boiled in a pitifully thin teriyaki that barely clung on to anything at all. Jinsan, I sincerely hope you read this, and take it to heart. As a long-time patron of your restaurant, it pains me to say that I will be bringing my business to one of your competitors. Please, PLEASE, fix these issues, and prove me wrong, because as it stands now, you've lost your touch, you've lost your spirit, and most disappointingly of all, you've lost my respect. read more

We are some lucky folks down the bayou to be sure. Jinsan Sushi produces some of the freshest and most innovative sushi I have ever encountered. The sushi chefs will create special rolls incorporating the ingredients you select just for you! The decor is warm and inviting. The service is unintrusive and adequate. The fish is always impecablly fresh. And they have the lovely Japanese beers that are so wonderful! They have a new website I believe it is jinsansushi.com. Thats some good sushi!!!! Recently under new management and service is better. read more

I figured I'd write this review while I'm still feeling sick from this place. This is my second and last time getting food here. The clear soup looks like dish water and my co-worker said it tasted like it too. I didn't even try mine. The fried rice is....well, not like any fried rice I've ever eaten. The cost...$10!! My co-workers and I barely touched it. Wasted. Three of us ate the crunchy rolls and all three of us were in the bathroom all afternoon. Overpriced and not worth the money or the fact that I had to skip the gym tonight. No squats and lunges for me **blaaaahhh*** read more

Outstanding sushi! So fresh I think it came straight off the boat out of the Gulf of Mexico! Amazing tuna and salmon. I had the Gold Point Roll which was really, really good. But even better was the Tiger Roll. It tasted like eating Heaven! 5-stars - you will love it! read more

The hibachi food is the best around. We have tried eating hibachi at all the places in Houma, but we prefer going to Jinsan.

Was very surprised how good sushi was. Plan to eat there again. Got the 3 sushi roll dinner with soup and salad. The spicy tuna roll was my favorite. Also soup and salad with ginger dressing was nice. read more

Sat at the hibachi, the food was delicious, was there for my husband's birthday and of course they DID NOT disappoint the servers, the greeters, the chef entertained us, he has such a great disposition, all around pleasant evening, lassez les bon temp rouler, a night that we will not forget. More saki more happy read more

I love this restaurant for sushi, absolutely the best and most creative rolls around. Especially on the bayou. Great service
