Great food, great atmosphere, and top-tier service. We’ll definitely be coming back! What truly made the night stand out was the service, especially Tiffany at the bar. She was attentive, friendly, and made fantastic food recommendations. You can tell she genuinely cares about guests having a great time — she elevated the whole experience.

Come here because didn’t make reservations at other sushi place . Everything, including Google rating looked promising. Empty room, though , were kind of alarming, but still staged . Menu looks fabulous! Nothing extra , very minimalistic and straight to the point- lived that. Design of the interior is great! Clean, sharp, spacious! Food that where I’m struggling. I eat sushi since 1996-97 . Some of pepper having even been born lol , I old )) . Any way, bluefin tuna role had “aged” notes to it, I double checked and was assured- it is fresh! Toro, fatty tuna was very flat … I don’t know why, but I didn’t had that awe 🫢 malty taste to it at all. Very thing and more watery than fatty. Presentation also leaves some room for improvement (See pic) Salmon Caviar on other hand was 10/10! Service was good - Fast ( I was only one there)) ) nice and polite. Thank you Any way , my only one dinner in Atlanta was not memorable at all.

This is the second time I came to Brush for lunch , and frankly the last time . Both time I have visited Brush for lunch , the service is absurdly slow . The last time there were 3 of us , the service is slow to the point where 2 of us have already finished our meal , but the 3rd person still hasn’t received her ramen. Management eventually gifted us deserts as an apology. Today, we are one of four tables at lunch on a Friday . There were only 2 people working the entire restaurant , but 2 staff vs 4 small tables isn’t that crazy . All three of us ordered 3 courses lunch set. We waited at least 20-25 mins for the first course, and between the appetizer and the main course , we probably waited another 45 mins minimal ….. Each time we receive our food, the waiter would mess up the order and give the wrong dish to the wrong person… What is even worse is that the food is horrendously horrible . Honestly probably the worst Japanese food I have had in Atlanta im the last couple years…. honestly such a shame, I have been going to Brush since their old location . This one is likely gonna close soon with this quality of food and service ….

We had a fantastic time at Brush Sushi. While very unconventional when it comes to sushi places, I highly recommend it for a special occasion. The service was impeccable. I will be coming back!

Tried the o by brush and while I think it’s super considerate that they gave me a sample of the rose kombucha that I liked, the food could be better. For this price I’ve had much better omakase in NYC, and the service / staff’s familiarity with every course etc feels less impressive than omakase table (but it’s still decent). Also we came in on time for our reservation but had to sit in the bar for about 15 minutes or more, and we came in earlier than some folks but were seated the latest. And the bar tender wasn’t very friendly compared to the rest of the staff. I also had diarrhea + cold feet (which seems to be food poisoning symptoms) after the meal

Made a reservation for O by Brush for the Omakase experience. Their sushi types were different and quite unique. I really liked how the chef explained why and how certain items are prepared. And dessert was such a treat.

We've been excited to try Brush for a while and decided to give it a shot for a birthday dinner. The location and atmosphere were very nice and clean. The staff was kind and hospitable. Our waiter did a good job explaining the dishes, answering our questions, and honoring the birthday. The pacing of the meal was good as well. My only service note would be to be more diligent with wiping the tables between courses - a member of my party accidentally stained their sleeves on some sauce while resting her hand on the table.
As for the food - I was unimpressed. The menu seemed to be too repetitive and lacked creativity. For a place that specializes in sushi, I typically look for either pristine freshness/quality of seafood or creativity. I find that this place lacked both. The fish was fresh, but their competition has fresher. The setups were good, but not memorable. The menu seems extensive but a lot of the rolls are recycled from one configuration to the next.
To give credit where it's due, the duck was absolutely incredible! The presentation, the sides, the flavor, the smokiness - it was the best duck I've had in the city. It was the saving grace of the evening and the sole reason I will not hesitate to return and will recommend this place to others.
The dessert portions were very generous. However, they sounded more exciting on paper, which was a disappointment. Our favorite one ended up being the seasonal roll cake.
Overall, I would still recommend checking it out for the duck dish alone. I promise it will be worth the trip! But maybe lower your expectations on the sushi, or skip it altogether.

I made reservations there for a business dinner at the suggestion of my customer. The atmosphere was great, and the service was great, but that’s where it ended. When I asked the bartender “what are your bourbon choices”, his reply was “well, the American Bourbon’s are here”. Clearly he doesn’t understand bourbon. Not a huge deal, but at a Michelin restaurant, that’s embarrassing. Then the food. The octopus was like chewing on a flip flop. The sushi rolls were okay at best. The prices…through the roof and not at all worth it. I will never go back and would advise you find another place to go that has WAY better food for 1/2 the price.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The hand rolls on the happy hour menu are amazing—fresh, flavorful, and addictive. The cocktails are super unique, with lots of oolong and fruit infusions—perfect if you like something creative and refreshing.
The nigiri and o’toro service was fire, and even the steak impressed. To top it off, dessert was phenomenal. Honestly, everything from start to finish was spot on. The service was outstanding—Dylan took such great care of us and really made the experience memorable.
Such a great Japanese restaurant—I loved it so much and can’t wait to come back.

My husband and I had an absolutely wonderful time! Sian and Kyle were our servers and they were so kind, thoughtful, and attentive. Plus, the food was incredible. We sat at the bar and got to see the chef make our temaki in front of us. Very light and airy vibes paired with delicious food. Win. Win. Will be going back soon!
Great happy hour with some delicious handrolls
