    The presentation & the taste, the combination of both plus the quality of the food is what you want when you dine in...

    Meet family at Megumi 21 in Covington for sushi etc. Megumi 21 has a contemporary and stylish venue and features attentive, friendly service. There were a couple of misunderstandings about our order, but these were rapidly rectified. I am certainly not a sushi aficionado, but this place has one of the most extensive sushi selections I have ever seen. They offer an array of appetizers and other traditional Asian favorites, as well. Portions were generous and prices were competitive. If you have a taste for sushi in a family friendly atmosphere, then Megumi 21 in Covington may be for you.

    Nestled in the heart of Covington, Megumi is more than just a sushi restaurant--it's an experience defined by care, quality, and consistency. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with the kindest hospitality, where the staff makes you feel like family. Mai, in particular, always goes above and beyond, radiating warmth and genuine kindness that enhances every visit. The star of the menu for me is the Yuzu Salmon--a dish that perfectly balances creamy avocado, bright citrusy yuzu, and rich, velvety olive oil over pristine, fresh salmon. It's vibrant, refreshing, and utterly addictive. Every roll is a testament to precision and pride. From the way they're expertly rolled to the delicate balance of flavors, you can truly taste the intention and love in every bite. The fish is always fresh, the presentation elegant, and the experience consistently exceptional. Megumi is a rare find--a place where technique meets heart, and where the passion of the chefs and staff is evident in every plate. Whether you're a sushi aficionado or just looking for an unforgettable meal, this is one restaurant that never disappoints. As a long time Chef myself I can truly say this place is exceptional!

    Absolutely incredible and a hidden gem. A little pricey but worth it for a splurge. The service is top notch and great attention. We loved every aspect. Perfect for a fun and tasty date night.

    Food, service, ambiance ON POINT. Seriously, I am a sushi snob and everything we had was super fresh and delicious! Our server Evan was knowledgeable and attentive! The menu is ENORMOUS! It's like the took every specialty sushi roll in the state and put it on their menu. We will be back sooner rather than later! Yay for Northshore cuisine!

    I've been here multiple times since it's opened and I've finally decided to review it. I had all but given up hope for reasonably priced sushi on the Northshore, since the quality has seemed to gone downhill at every place. However, this new Megumi location has truly stepped up their game. Their food quality is awesome, the plating is beautiful, and the service is wonderful. I lived in Japan for a few years, so I may be a bit hard to impress when it comes to sushi. But the quality of rice and fish here is so delicious and fresh that I find myself itching to come back here again and again. Right now, they are open for lunch and then close for a short time before dinner. They aren't packing it to capacity at the moment because of restrictions in place for the pandemic and the dining area is rather small. They do allow you the option to eat outside but I personally find it way too hot to eat outside, it doesn't take too long to wait for a table. I appreciate the hot towels that come in individually wrapped packets and the complementary clear soup to whet your appetite. The portions are very large, so you really only need one to fill you up. I like to get multiple rolls though because I love leftovers and there are a plethora of roll options to choose from; it's virtually impossible to get through all of the menu. There are also lunch specials, appetizers, and delicious ramen offerings so there is something for everyone. I highly recommend y'all give this place a try. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

    Finally, some good Ramen!!!! I have not had good ramen since visiting California . It is a taste that the Northshore is missing out on. The sushi is just as great! I have been eating sushi for decades, and the presentation and quality of the fish is exceptional. The service was Amazing!!! Thank you Charles!!!

    We visited Megumi in Mandeville last night for sushi. The food itself was very good. We ordered the…read moreAmigo Roll, Angel Smile Roll, and Princess Poki Roll -- all were fresh, flavorful, and beautifully plated. The presentation was impressive, and you can tell care goes into the kitchen side of things. The ambiance is also nice and makes for a good date-night or casual dinner spot. Unfortunately, the service really fell short. We ordered edamame and waited over 15 minutes, only to find out it had been sent to another table. One of the servers mentioned that if they mess up, they have to pay for the dish themselves -- which honestly felt awkward and unnecessary to share with customers. Our sushi also took over 15 minutes to come out. Throughout the meal, our server seemed disengaged and largely ignored our table. When I asked for additional chopsticks, she looked at me and walked away to assist other tables. I eventually had to get up and ask if she heard me, and she replied yes. The interaction felt cold and impersonal, like she was just going through the motions rather than providing attentive service. Overall: great food, nice atmosphere, but very disappointing service on this visit. Hoping this was just an off night because the sushi itself was excellent.

    The sushi was just okay. I've had better at a few places in the area. The menu is like a binder of…read moreprobably 300 sushi rolls and then when you go to order that say that you can only order what is on the ordering sheet (which doesnt have descriptions). After we were told that, we had to find different rolls to order and most of them weren't on the ordering sheet. We got hot sake and the cups and carafe were not fully clean. Side note, they had the christian radio station playing throughout the restaurant, which felt like an odd choice.
