Thanks for responding in all caps smartasses ;)

Thanks. Hopefully they will actually open tomorrow. I passed by a while ago and they had 4/20 as the open date and then I heard 2 weeks but I figured with all the knowledgable people on here someone would know (or at least pretend to).

I know this is an old thread but I've been a few times now and now I feel like I can talk about it. There are a few things I REALLY enjoyed, the rest was just ok.

The spicy tuna roll is excellent - mainly because of the quality of fish like everyone else has said, but its just the right amount of spicy.

The baby octopus salad is probably my favorite dish I've ever had at a sushi restaurant. It's completely cooked in some kind of soy sauce/sesame oil concoction and then cooled down and served. If you are a texture person however, this may not be for you because it is weird in that sense. That being said, I did get my sister (who is the pickiest eater in the world) to try it and she LOVED it.

Lastly the Valentine's Day roll is like dessert...it combines fruit and shrimp with a nice sweet sauce on top, which is a little weird but at the end of the meal, it is truly delicious.

Other than that, my suggestion is to do the variety plate when you go. You can get half of any 3 sushi rolls on the menu for half of the price of each roll and it allows you to try everything you want without spending tons of money.

Overall, I'd give it a 7/10. I like the fact that a lot of their rolls are inventive but in some of the rolls, they went too far.

I agree about the 1st season...it gets off to a bit of a slow start but as you move along into 2 (where I left off, I haven't started 3 yet), it gets better.

That being said, I started renting it from Netflix about a month ago on a friend's suggestion and its definitely entertaining if you like dramatic shows with lots of sex and a little bit of humor thrown in.

Are you talking about Heiner Brau? If so, Whole Foods definitely has it, possibly Matherne's as well.

go try one of the hand squeezed margaritas at el gato Negro in the quarter

Just had the pineapple and cilantro one the other day...sounds weird but was absolutely amazing!

Any suggestions other than Sidebar and Max Lager's about where to go after the game? Little or no cover if possible...

I dare say no one can compare with Superior Grill's margarita. It can be consumed in New Orleans, Baton Rouge or Shreveport. A grown man cannot drink two of them and stand up straight.

Their margaritas are pretty good but I'm pretty sure they used to be stronger...La Carreta's are also good but I don't think I've ever really had a margarita in Louisiana that was really GREAT.

Agreed although the pecan ale is a close 2nd.We like to say it tastes like Christmas trees because its sooo bitter. I know thats not the most articulate critique in the world but I think its rather accurate if you have ever tried it...
