My son & I came here after seeing a review on TikTok & had an amazing experience. The restaurant was clean & the decor & atmosphere were beautiful. The staff was so helpful with making recommendations & super friendly & sweet. We started off with the jalapeño tempura as our appetizer & a hot purple sake. For our sushi we ordered the Hotter Than You Think, Rice Rice Baby, Samurai Roll & Osaka Mountain Roll. For dessert we had the strawberry & green tea mochi. Everything was amazing & the food presentation was on point. I highly recommend Kaiseki Japanese Bistro!

I had the clear soup, crawling roll, and volcano roll (pictured). All three dishes were delicious. Great pricing for the serving size of food you get and taste! The atmosphere is nice, but it is a very open space and seating arrangement. Not a super busy place, but it deserves the business.

I’m very picky when it comes to sushi and Asian food. I was thoroughly impressed with the quality of food tonight. I ordered the Filet Mignon roll and my daughter ordered Surf over Turf roll. We had the Beef Tarte as an appetizer. I also ordered the Scorpion bowl cocktail. I generally drink more than I eat, but this time I cleaned the table and couldn’t finish this gigantic sized cocktail!! I’ve been to this place when it was Dayu, and I can honestly say that Dayu does not compare. I’m glad it’s changed owners. I would love to see this place thrive…. you can tell by watching them, that they were concentrating on getting the food just perfect.

Tried out Kaiseki, a new Japanese restaurant that recently opened in Kenner. The place has been remodeled slightly, and it already feels more inviting and updated than the previous restaurant that was here. The vibe is warmer and the atmosphere has improved.
The service is excellent — our server was attentive, and the floor manager personally checked in to ask how the food was, which shows real care for customer feedback. We were also given a complimentary tempura sushi bite, which was a nice and tasty welcome.
However, there are a few things worth noting for future diners. The name “Kaiseki” sets high expectations, as it traditionally refers to an elegant, seasonal multi-course Japanese meal. The actual menu here is much more casual, focused on poke bowls, sushi boxes, and appetizers.
Some specific feedback:
The eel box came with only five small slices of eel, thinly layered over rice, plus imitation crab mix — a bit underwhelming for the price.
The chirashi bowl was mostly diced fish with edamame — simple, but not as refined as expected.
The karaage (Japanese fried chicken) was not made in the traditional style — it used a dry batter or possibly panko, rather than the usual starch-based coating (like potato starch), so it lacked the classic karaage texture and flavor.
Note: Hot and cold green tea comes with no refills, which is uncommon in many Japanese spots.
That said, everyone’s taste is different, and this place is still new. While the food might not fully live up to the “Kaiseki” name yet, the team is clearly trying hard, and the service alone makes it worth a visit. I’d encourage others to try it for themselves and give this local business a chance to grow and evolve.

Food is the best especially the cheezy scallop app. They were out of lychee but we got peach martinis which were lovely not too sweet. Chicken was high quality rolls were perfect not drowning in sauce just the perfect amount. We were the only people there at 1630 so a little awkward with the staff watching us eat. We even got a chef app for no charge which was a special touch and delicious. Atmosphere is a little lacking and very open with one big dining room but very clean and new construction. We will be back. P. S. Large variety of food options and a kids menu.
