My FAVORITE sushi place, hands-down, of any within the City.  AND it's right around the corner.  Quick, good value and friendly staff.  LOVE.

Happy I finally tried it. Passing by Good Time Sushi en route to UNO over the past few years, I always wondered (a) how it would do in this off-the-beaten-path location and (b) whether it was any good. Given that it's now been around for over 5 years, I figured it must have something going for it and finally got around to trying it today. I'm happy I did.

Amid a steady flow of customers (both in-house and take-out) service was fine. The Salmon Avocado Roll and Spicy Tuna Roll were both good, nothing more. The BBQ Eel Roll with some sort of sauce over it was very good. The surprise was the Sweet Potato Roll, served warm and unlike anything I've ever had before, yummily excellent.

I preceded these with the squid salad which had a generous amount of squid in it and just the right kick. Also excellent.

For such a small, simple establishment, I thought prices were a tad, say 10-15% high, but I suppose real estate even on Elysian Fields (not to mention everything else that goes into running a restaurant) has gotten more expensive these days.

A couple with two young kids sat at the table next to me. They said they'd been coming there for years and highly recommended the Volcano Roll which looked great. They added when the first came the thought it would be very, very good or very, very bad. Happily for all, it tuned out to be the former.

Great NOLA sushi at hole-in-the-wall place!. The place is not very appealing from the outside but on the inside, it is worth the eye sore! It was my first time trying the restaurant. Very small on the inside. Every table was filled, 15 min wait. Sushi was outstanding! I had the sushi lunch box special. My two rolls were the crunchy roll and the snowcrab roll. Both were excellent! Came with miso soup and a salad for under $10! Tons of regular customers came in the restaurant for take-out orders. Waited for our food for 30minutes because of hectic lunch crowd in the restaurant and with all to-go orders. Worth all the waiting!

Good for Gentilly. If you live in the Gentilly area and are looking for a quick place to grab some sushi you wont be disappointed in this hole in the wall. If you are a food connoisseur looking for some gem this is not your place. I live in the area and like it but there are better places to eat in other parts of the city.

An unassuming unpretentious gem! The food here is absoluty delicious. I've been dozens of times and have always had a wonderful meal. If you need to be surrounded by ultra chic decor or an "uptown-like" atmosphere, well this is not the place for you. However if you just like good sushi, you'll love this little surprise.

Give this one a try, it is worth it.. I usually order from here a couple of times during the month. Their sushi is always good as well as the appetizers. My favorites are the rock n roll, crunchy calamari, and snowcrab naruto. The rock n roll is three times the size of all the other sushi places for about the same price if not cheaper. I went to Sake Cafe this weekend and can't wait to order my next sushi meal from Good Times. The service is always friendly. Definitely give this one a try if you are heading to or from UNO or don't want to drive Uptown or to Metairie to get some sushi.

Tasty, Convenient, Good Service!. I can't disagree more with the negative reviews I've seen of Good Time Sushi! I have always found the fish to be fresh and many of the special rolls, especially the Good Time Roll, are delicious; obviously, not everything is to my taste, but I've loved almost everything I've had. Some of my other favorites include the Eel box sushi, the tuna roll, and The Volcano. The offerings from the hibachi are also delicious and even my super-picky husband, who usually dislikes all "ethnic" food, loves the hibachi steak. The service is friendly, quick, and the wait staff are considerate of my special requests and my toddler's needs. The hours are convenient, as well, so I can have my lunch before or after the lunch rush without worrying about inconveniencing anyone.

New Fav. I cannot believe this place was around for six months and I didn't know about it.
It is too good, maybe be the best sushi in town.

Tasty and cheap. Close to UNO. Their simple rolls are the best. I find it to be better than Hana.

I recently moved to New Orleans and I am sushi obsessed so you could imagine my uber excitement when I discovered Good Time Sushi!

I have never had the full dine in experience. I have only ordered, to go. I will tell you that even with a to go order - that the attention to detail is on point. I honestly don't feel like I am missing out by dining, in house. The quality and taste of the sushi is clean tasting while being excellently prepared. Fish to rice ratio excellent....seaweed minimal chew. JUST DELICIOUS!!! Fresh, Fresh, Fresh.....check out the shrimp tempura appetizer!!! A meal on it's own.

I LOVE this place. The Crazy Dog Roll is the best. And the Squid Salad. Mom likes the bento box. I eat here every time I visit New Orleans! The fish is always fresh and well presented. The service is lackluster, but adequate. The staff is very nice, they were very understanding when my toddler knocked over 2 glasses of water during our meal. You will wait for your food, so don't go there with limited time. It's usually abt 20/25 mins, but once we waited 45 for takeout. They get super swamped with to go orders. especially near closing time.

Amazing place. Seriously the best I’ve found in New Orleans. I’ve eaten sushi all over the world and am so glad I found Russel and good time sushi! I buy some good Saki (like tyku or ochinokura) from rouses on the way and they heat it up for you and serve it elegantly in pottery. Get the baby octopus or the uni (Russell might need to order it for you), and the raw Canadian shrimp is amazing as well. The yellowtail sashimi is amazing, as is his special avocado salmon sashimi wrap (pictured). I’d give 6 stars if I could. Adding some notes on 4/20/18. This place is still consistently amazing. I sit at the sushi bar when I come so my service is slower than average but still quite good. Be patient, it’s soooooo worth it. Adding new pics as well.

I've tried several other sushi spots in the city but I keep coming back to Good Time sushi! They have the best no frills no fuss sushi in the city. They are nestled in Gentilly on Elysian Fields.

Great little dinner spot. This place is inconspicuous from the road. The dining room is small, but tidy. Service was prompt and attentive. Good rolls at a decent price. I would visit this place again.

Today was my second time eating here. The chef is very kind and greeted me as I walked in, recognizing me from 2 months ago. The fish was SO fresh and the veggie roll is my new favorite.! The two waitresses are nice and pay attention to detail. I enjoyed my lunch today and will always come back here.

I freaking love this place! The rolls are always so fresh and tasty. Plus the to go service is always fast, even at peak busy times. They have excellent customer service and I never feel like I'm being rushed or that I'm in the way when I order to go. Great food, great people, great prices.
