    Came here for lunch, not too busy, got a table fairly quick...our server Ashley was so fun. We picked the buffet. Spicy chicken bulgogi was so freaking good, and it had a nice char on it. We cooked everything. We also had the all you can eat sushi which was included in the buffet. Everything was fresh too, they also had a huge sauce bar with all the sauces!!!

    Space 5 is a whole vibe. The atmosphere is artful and welcoming, with a sleek, space-themed aesthetic. Every angle is photo-worthy. The staff is extremely professional and helpful when it comes to navigating the experience because trust me, it is a process. We had Amir, and he was outstanding very professional and clearly knowledgeable at what he does. There are three dining options: Korean BBQ, sushi, and pho. You can choose two out of three, but for just $5 more per person, you can enjoy all three, which is absolutely worth it. The sushi is top tier. I highly recommend the Marrero roll and the Space 5 roll. Overall, an amazing experience and definitely worth checking out

    Great place! I'm so excited places like this are coming to the westbank and it's such a good value! It's an AYCE where you have to choose two of the three types at minimum but you can also choose all three - hotpot, sushi, and Korean BBQ. Personally I do think the first time you come here can be overwhelming trying to figure out the menu and what to order but our server was helpful and patient with us. She answered our questions quickly and didn't mind helping us first-timers. The lunch deal was definitely good value for what you pay - can't wait for them to open back up to try dinner. It's dark and intimate in there but definitely bustling as you move back and forth from your table to the buffet bar with everyone else around. Lots of great options at the buffet bar and a spot for you to make your own sauce combo. Be careful you don't grab more than you can eat, I believe they charge for uneaten food. Love the quality of the food and excited to come back!

    The variety of food was amazing. Great atmosphere. Good music - not too loud but loud enough to hear. Buffet area was so clean. Sadie was our server. She was very patient and explained the process to us first clients. She was very attentive to clearing plates and bringing drinks. Would definitely recommend.

    Finally! We've been waiting for this place to open for the longest time! Space 5 features a unique dining experience in touch of Asian culture: Kbbq, hotpot, and sushi! Though other restaurants already have this same concept, Space 5 is unique in its All You Can Eat experience where you can choose 2 of 3 experiences to dine for $34 per person! We tried the Kbbq and hotpot and it was honestly better than I expected. The kbbq meats were all displayed on the buffet bar while the hotpot meats were able to be ordered at the table. We tried many options for both but some that I liked were the Spicy calamari and regular pork belly for kbbq and tonkatsu broth for hotpot. We heard the sushi was also good but didn't order it this time! There were a lot of variety with kbbq meats along with options for making your sauce which I liked. In addition, the dessert items consisted of Wishing town's desserts which caught me by surprise. I tried the tiramisu, passion fruit mousse, and taro chantilly cake. All were okay but if i had to choose a favorite of those, i like the tiramisu if it had much less expresso. Some cons of the establishment would be that my seating area was definitely not the cleanest. There were dirty napkins on the floor and some areas of the bar were not well kept. Kids were loud and running around - I'm hoping some type of rule is implemented but in the future to restrict this. On another note, I'd love to try some other kbbq meats and their sushi in another visit. In comparison to other nearby restaurants similar to this, Space 5 definitely takes the cake over Ombu bbq/ hotpot, Gangnam kbbq, Panda king hotpot, etc.

    My girlfriend and I visited this place on a Friday night pretty soon after their grand opening. We were met with a 45 minute wait, but there are things to do in nearby plazas so the wait isn't too bad. We entered the waitlist and came back 45 minutes later and were sat shortly after. The ambiance is very unique and I like their whole space theme. Our waitress was good, service through the whole restaurant was a bit slow but granted they were pretty busy. Even though we grab most of the food ourselves, she checked up on us pretty often which I appreciated. The decor is super cool and there are lots of neon lights which made it a KBBQ experience I haven't had before. The food was pretty good, some meats better than others. My favorites were the KBBQ spicy pork belly (9/10), regular pork belly (8/10) and beef ribs (7/10). The hotpot meats were okay and honestly didn't have that much flavor to them, but you have options of sauces and seasonings. We got the tonkatsu broth (9/10) and Szechuan spicy (6/10). We only did the hotpot + KBBQ combo and didn't try the sushi, but I think it's worth the price of around $34 for 2 options. I also got a matcha cheese foam drink, and it wasn't that good. It was more like those tea packets that have matcha in them. I also don't think it had cheese foam, so not what i was expecting. Some of my critiques: - The place itself is kind of cramped especially around the areas where you grab food. It doesn't help that there are kids running around. I feel like there should be a rule for this. - We didn't get utensils for a while. I feel that's something that should have been ready as soon as we sat. Overall, I would recommend this place since there aren't many good KBBQ spots in NOLA!

    What a cool concept!!!! The vibe in here is amazing, very space-like. The service was cool, he made sure we knew everything and ensured we received all that we ordered. The food was great!!!! The all-you-can-eat feature was super fire!!!! The options are endless, there's something for everyone. I'm ready to go back whenever they reopen.

    What an amazing spot to get ayce hotpot, kbbq, and sushi! The place is so cool and neat, it was a whole experience! There was so many food options, more than I expected and seen elsewhere. The meat quality and selection was top tier. One of the best hotpot and kbbq spots I've been to! I highly recommend and would come back!

    I had the pleasure of dining here for lunch with some of my coworkers. We really enjoyed the space theme! The buffet area was nice and plentiful with a lot of options. I chose to get the golden chicken base for my hot pot. I enjoyed the flavor and the fresh veggies and noodles I chose off the buffet. My favorite items were the spicy marinated chicken and the spicy beef bulgogi, both were grilled. The reason for not giving 5 stars is because they were out of a couple of drink options and the some of the pre prepared food from the buffet were cold.

    Aesthetically this place is it. Definitely fun for kids. I love Korean bbq so I thought everything was tasty including the hotpot. The difference compared to other Korean bbq restaurants I found was that you get your own meats and fried appetizers from the bar instead of them being delivered to the table. I took away a star since our booth only had one grill at the end of the table to cook our meats. We had to hand our plates to the person on the end to cook for everyone.

    Great new KBBQ hot spot place. Very cool interior design. We got the sushi, hot pot & bbq option. Lots of veggie and meat options! Was disappointed in the lack of dessert options available but nonetheless great experience overall. Service could improve. It was a busy night understandably but would be great to improve available servers as this dining experience is dependent on placing orders with the servers too. Hope to continue seeing this restaurant gain popularity while still maintaining cleanliness and quality!

    Service was a bit rocky when I first arrived, but it seemed like they had a lot of new staff. Thankfully, the managers handled everything well, and I have high hopes for the place. The food was great--very fresh and delicious! My mood was a little dampened at the start, but the managers did a great job turning things around. I still recommend this place.

You order and within a few short minutes it is delivered to your table. We tried a little bit of everything and left happy and stuffed! Please come hungry because you will want to try everything. It is great to have a new restaurant on the Westbank with fresh delicious food and the service is top notch! We will be back soon!!

Coming from Los Angeles, I can be a bit spoiled…read more Thus I rounded up to 5 stars for Sun Chong as I thought the food was 4 stars just because I get awesome Korean food in LA. Now Sun Chong (recommended by our valet park guy and also the rental car people) combines a Korean/Soul/Creole fusion vibe. Right by Bourbon St behind the Customs House, the location isn't far from the craziness of Bourbon St. Reservations recommended, my coworker and I sat at the bar which was perfect (a table would have been a 20 min wait). Thanks and props to our waitresses, Tishara (typo?), the other lady with her (who left for Baton Rouge and came back home to NOLA), and the other young lady who's half Vietnamese, those 3 ladies really made the vibe at Sun Chong perfect. Always attentive, danced to the R&B, and A+ service to this west coast guy. I loved their two dumplings, the Étouffée Dumplings and the Gumbo Soup Dumplings. Those were awesome, those were the fusion dishes I recommend! The spicy pork was okay, good, the bulgogi beef was decent too. NOLA - Korean/Soul vibes 100%! Check it out. Did I mentioned the service and playlist were awesome? They were able to split the check for the 2 of us at the bar.

This particular Monday night we opted to eat a 5:30P dinner in a relatively quiet, open restaurant with Kaitlyn C. as our server. Sake and water for husband and soda for myself all delivered quickly.

Husband's Beef Yaki Udon arrived in a reasonable size bowl - no overfilling with too many noodles. I thought the beef was good quality and the cabbage was just the right amount and not too strong. The Crunchy Dynamite Roll w/soy paper and Tsurai Roll (suggested by Kaitlyn when I was overwhelmed with choices) w/sriracha on the side were the last to make it to the table but worth the wait. I'm so glad we asked for a recommendation because otherwise the Tsurai would have been overlooked - and it was the bomb! Not a cheap meal ($71.30 w/tax w/o tip) but eating out generally isn't. With that said, only had a small amount of Udon leftover which means we didn't pay for any wasted food. Plan on eating in again rather than doing take out. Thanks, Kaitlyn C.!
