Kenji Omakase sits on Camp St in the Central Business District, serving Edomae-style sushi at a counter-only setup. The restaurant is classified in the luxury price tier, consistent with the traditional omakase format it follows.
Service runs six nights a week, Tuesday through Sunday, generally from 5:00 pm to around 10:00 or 10:30 pm depending on the night. The restaurant is closed on Mondays. Because seating is limited to the counter, the room operates on a single-service model typical of Edomae sushi counters, where timing and pacing are set by the chef rather than a standard menu order.
Reservations are not handled online. Kenji Omakase takes bookings by phone at (504) 909-4851, and guests can also reach the restaurant by email at contact@kenjinola.com for inquiries. No online booking system, walk-in policy, or seat count has been published, so confirming availability directly with the restaurant ahead of a visit is the most reliable approach.
