"The long-established Shogun in Metairie changed owners earlier this year, with restaurateurs Xikai “Neil” Yao and Yanrong “Davina” Wang now at the helm following founder Masako “Peggy” Kamata’s retirement. The couple, who also own Sake Cafe on Magazine and Five Happiness on Carrollton, kept the expert staff in place. Known for pristine beyond the usual sushi, Shogun also serves hibachi meats and seafood, grilled and baked seafood, ramen, udon and tempura." - Beth D'Addono
