“O-Ku never misses, and this restaurant is literally my favorite place in Atlanta. My fiance and I were celebrating our Birthdays and Joe and Jazmine really made this birthday special for us. We were greeted by Joe, who is always super friendly and inviting. He also added beautiful flowers to the table due to the occasion. Our waitress, Jazmine, was also super friendly and knowledgeable and added the final touches to a perfect date night/celebration. As always, thanks for the great time =D“
“Food was amazing and service was impeccable. The 8 course tasting menu and Sake pairing was worth every penny. Went for my birthday and they did not disappoint. Angela was the best. Very personable and knowledgeable in regards to menu options, Sakes and history. Compliments to the chef!!!“
“The food was great and the service was exceptional. Compared to Hayakawa, Mujo seems to have a bit more of a modern take. The ambience was moody and the restaurant was constantly buzzing with conversation and laughs. I loved the presentation, the staff, and the quality.“
“This is the first Japanese restaurant in America that we can recommend to Americans. Is this Japanese food in most restaurants? There are many traditional Japanese flavors and dishes, but this one is just Japanese food, and when I miss Japanese food, that normality permeates my stomach. I recommend it.“
“Really special experience, unmatched in Atlanta. Pricey, obviously, but it almost transcends dining.The food quality can't be overstated. Sake recs were top notch. The kind of "above and beyond" service you only get at a place like this. The chef is so personable and engaging.“
“Ate here tonight! Such a cute & decently priced place. The appetizer (spicy cheese karaage) I got was absolutely delicious and the matcha cheesecake was perfect. I can’t wait to come back again! Our server wasn’t the most present but it was quite busy (even on a Wednesday night).Parking: You can pay to park in a nearby lot but can get it validated!“
“Have been getting COVID-19 omakase with Yasu! And I cannot recommended it enough! Every single little detail is not missed even though it is take out. By far one of the best Omakase take in Atlanta currently for it’s price. The amount of food is easily 2-3 times the other omakase and yet the same quality. ❤️“
“I'm not sure how this does not have a higher rating - we landed here on a time crunch, after trying to visit another establishment that was not moving fast. We are so glad we tried Salaryman! Great, welcoming staff, chill atmosphere, and delicious food. The rock shrimp app was perfect, my guava cocktail amazing, and our main meal absolutely fantastic. Highly recommend.“
“Having tried thoroughly enjoyed our omakase experiences at Mujo and Hiyakawa we have been trying to find other similar experiences in Atlanta. I am happy to report that Brush's omakase did not disappoint. The service was outstanding. Both the servers and the chef spent generous amounts of time talking with us and making sure we had everything we needed/wanted.We did the 16 course menu and it was the perfect amount a food and I would say it is a better value when compared to Mujo or Hiyakawa. I would say the atmosphere sits in between those two. Mujo having a very chill comfortable vibe and Hiyakawa being more like a museum and culinary course. At Brush you get a more chill vibe and can get as little or as much information you want to the meal. I would also say that Brush is much less overbearing on the rules than either Mujo and Hiyakawa which was very nice.The quality of the fish and dishes were amazing. Brush has a unique rice and some unique presentations that the other places don't have. All things considered I think Brush my be the best overall place (accounting for price, comfort and experience).The only draw back of the omakase experience for me is the the space in not an intimate as the other spots I have mentioned. You can definitely tell you are in Buckhead.“
“I personally LOVED this place. Everything we ordered from appetizers to rolls to desserts were all a delight! I usually don't lean towards sushi rolls, but these are some of the best I've had! The garlic pepper toro roll and the 24k roll were both 5/5 stars! Everything we ordered we loved! The desert here is amazing as well! Service was good and attentive, parking here is Valet only so keep that in mind!“
“I loved the food, the service was excellent, but I have to note something that I had to bring up with the manager, who by the way was our waitress as well. When I arrived with my husband the restaurant was at about half capacity. We were promptly seated at a small table near the rear. As the capacity grew, I noticed that 2 additional couples had been seated in the same section at the same type of smaller table. I mention this because, the only 3 African American couples in the restaurant were seated near the rear, at these smaller tables, while other couples were seated at larger tables near the rear or at tables closer to the front of the restaurant. Maybe this was a huge coincidence, but none the less I brought this to the attention of the manager, who immediately stated that the restaurant was not racist. I informed her that I was not stating that. The service and food were great, but the optics of the situation did not look good and that they should acknowledge that behavior and correct it in the future.“
“Tastiest airport food I've ever had. Can be a pretty penny, but it was worth it for me (a traveler who was getting sick and tired of greasy food). I had the salmon and a glass of sake. SO good. Will definitely be back the next time I'm in Atlanta looking to treat myself.“
“Japanese with a Korean flair. Great prices + great quality + _extremely_ great service. Surprisingly, they’ve been a “near-kept secret” in Atlanta for nearly 50 years. (Since 1970?)We’ve been eating here & picking up more-and-more regularly for only the past 3 years.“
“I wish I could give it even more than 5 stars.This restaurant has been time-tested by us and we will return here again and again! The employees are always friendly and try to do everything in their power to ensure that customers enjoy their time! The food is excellent, as usual.“
“I've been in here a few times for late night cocktails and small bites. I haven't had a bad thing yet. The cocktail menu is lovingly crafted by the in-house bartenders. They're more than happy to explain their methodology and engage you in conversation. It's a fairly small location and the skewers are grilled right in front of you. A very neat spot in the Virginia Highlands were stopping in“
“We got the organic mushroom hibachi plate... and it was PHENOMENAL. man oh man. Just excellent. After walking around the shops, we decided to get some more Hippie Hibachi to take home. We live in Riverdale... I wish this place was closer, I'd be going all the time. The man made the food so fast each time, and he was super pleasant. I can't wait till next time.“
“We felt like Chinese food today and came to visit. Unknowingly, until we pulled up, it was my 2nd time here. We ordered the house lo mein, crispy half duck, hunan calamari, and tempura calamari and veggies. That lo mein?!.... omg so good! ? the crispy duck is always good. My son ordered the 2 calamari dishes and barely ate them. His most complaint was about the tempura calamari, he said it taste like fried air... so no seasoning. I liked the tempura veggies with the yum yum. And the hunan was good too. The service was good and the atmosphere was nice. Not a lot of people so we got our food fairly quick.“
“Ru Sans is a ever evolving restaurant. The relatively new ownership has only improved an already great quality restaurant that has more of a friendly neighborhood feel. It has traditional Japanese sushi but many American friendly additions have been made over the years to the menu. I recommend it now more than ever.Parking: The Tower Place parking deck is paid parking but Ru Sans validates for 2 hours free“
“Now this is how you do sushi! I booked the lunch omakase for a birthday gift to myself and it did not disappoint. From the moment you walk in the door, the service is great. The hostess was extremely nice and helpful. She explained everything and when it came to add on she was informative and not pushy. The space is super cute. There is the food bar where the chef is making the sushi. There is also a smaller bar in the back. In the middle is a sitting area with a couch and chairs. The music matched the experience. You can tell this was well thought out. The food! The best sushi I have ever had. The flow of the menu was perfection. From the refresher to the dessert. At the end the chef made sure to talked to each customer and ask about their experience. I can not wait to go back. Run , don't walk, to try this place out. You will fall in love with sushi.“
“Great bar opened up to the 70 degree March weather. Staff was professional and hard working and had everything handled around us. Food was OK I had beef and pork eggrolls which were great, and chicken curry which was so so. My friend really liked his entree though I can’t remember what it was. Everyone seemed really happy to be there and it raised my opinion of the Windy Hill area up a notch. I’ll give it another shot next time I’m there and try something different…“
“We had a party of 4 for dinner at 7:45 pm on Monday, 3/25/24. We were seated right away. Plenty of parking. Quick service. Very chill, especially on a Monday night. I wore leggings and sneakers—very casual.We all split 2 appetizers and 7 rolls and it was the perfect amount of food. We could’ve gotten away with only 1 appetizer. We got Gyoza and Edamame, which were both great. For sushi, we got New Paige, Lambada, Pink Lady, Geisha, Tiger Eye, Home Depot, Super Crunch. The New Paige was definitely our favorite. The only one I personally wouldn’t get again was Tiger Eye. But seriously, everything was amazing.It came out to $32 per person, which is super reasonable. We all agree that we can’t wait to go back! Highly, highly recommend!“
“Had last minute dinner here while passing by and it was a great choice! The combo dinners are a great deal and you get a decent amount of food for the price, especially for Japanese cuisine. The only hiccup was they got our order wrong but was quickly fixed, but we had also seen a table next to us get the wrong order. Very small space but we were seated quickly on a Sunday night. Space is tight so it was awkward to balance a purse in the seat and also make sure it won’t get knocked over. There’s a designated parking lot in the back and other parking options nearby.Parking: Tight lot in the back. Host can tell you more options at a nearby restaurant/street.“
“Great place for Thai. Restaurant is close to my office, so I have had lunch there quite a few times. Lunch service is fast and never overcrowded for lunch. Prices are in line for the area and may seem a little high but not for the Emory location.“
“Amazing food and lots of options to choose from! I greatly enjoyed the hamachi kama and onigiri. Hopefully next time I'll be able to try their sushi!Great portions and everything came out quickly, the price is definitely worth it; we had ordered a lot of different things for a total of $112 which i feel is worth it due to the portions of each order and the fact we were able to order so many dishes.“
“I have been living in Atlanta for 7 months and I have been getting circle poke every week without missing it. Everything about that place is amazing. They also have the best kimchi I’ve ever had. The only thing that I would like them to add would be cream cheese to their menu.“
“Alex was our bartender and he, alone, was AMAZING, let alone the cocktails he was serving!! The Yuzu was INCREDIBLE. 12/10 recommend! ??? The food sushi was perfect, we had zero complaints. SO GOOD! And fast service! But the cocktails are 1009% what sets this pace (once/if you get in) apart! SO. SO good!!!idk if I would have ordered the Yuzu without Alex convincing me that I would love it, and THANK GOODNESS I listed because DAYUUUM!??????“
“We ate here after seeing Cirque du Soleil nearby with our two kids, 10 & 11. The restaurant was clean, and comfortably decorated. I wasn't worried too much about having what amounts to a grill in the middle of our table with the kids. It's obviously hot, but it's not like you'll lose a hand if you get too close here and there. Service was great. Our server was Yuki. He was very attentive, and explained how it worked, and answered any questions. When our food arrived, Yuki told us exactly what each item was, and exactly how long to cook it per side. Not a cheap place to go, especially with kids, but a nice treat after an otherwise fun-filled day with other new first experiences.“
“So, like, if you're looking for a super fun place to eat, Revolving Sushi & BBQ is where it's at! They have this crazy conveyor belt thingy with sushi that goes around, and you can just grab whatever looks yummy. And get this each table has its own little BBQ grill, so you can cook your own food too! It's like having a mini BBQ party right at your table. The vibe is awesome, perfect for hanging out with your buds and having a blast“
“Stopped in for dinner on vacation with my wife and two children. We were all incredibly impressed. We had the calamari, fried rice, and a few rolls; all of them were excellent. Teddy was fantastic at making suggestions and made the experience even more enjoyable.“
“I went here after a Braves game and from what I can remember (I had a few too many tequilas) it was sooo yummy. I got the spicy tuna sushi burrito and it was very spicy so be prepared. I won't lie my stomach was lowkey torn up the next day but sometimes sushi does that to me so idk fam. Overall it was good!“
“Pretty good ramen with friendly and fast staff. Very clean environment. Costs are averaging for what you would pay for ramen. Definitely worth a stop if you're in the area. If you don't know what to order the tonkatsu black is always your safest choice.“
Asian Fusion • $$
“The service was excellent, hostess gave us great recommendations for food. The food was delicious, I ordered the salmon bento box. Really nice atmosphere and would be great for just a group outing or date night. I e will definitely be back.“
“One of my FAV SUSHI spots in Atlanta. This is a hidden jewel in Atlanta. Great service, excellent quality and fresh seafood consistently. Strongly recommended. I’ve tried every roll. All good. Give it a try and tell them Ms. Kool Kat sent you!“
“Value, value, value.There's nothing that gets this foodie's heart ticking like tasty food at a great price point. Yes, this is fast casual dining, but it's done well with a healthy serving size that won't leave you hungry at the end. My husband and I each ordered our own teriyaki bento boxes, which come with a few pieces of California roll, rice, and a choice of two sides. I was surprised at how well my salmon teriyaki turned out. It was quite tender (save a few thinner parts long the sides, which were expectedly drier) and I was most surprised by the fact that there were two small fillets atop my rice. Talk about value! I wish I could tell you about my husband's chicken teriyaki but after his first bites, he quietly angled his plate away from me and shoveled it into his mouth until there was nothing left.I suppose that's saying something.There were a few minor dings here and there. The rolls, for instance, aren't true California rolls since there's nothing inside except imitation crab meat. My husband deigned to order a side salad, which turned out to be a clamshell Styrofoam container filled with chopped iceberg lettuce and a few julienned carrots throughout. No other veggies, no dressing, just lettuce. But now that we've learned our lesson, I hope that keeps you from making the same mistake and ordering from the more exciting parts of their menu. Anything with the teriyaki sauce would probably be a good bet. It's isn't too sweet and has a fair resemblance to the Sarku teriyaki one might find at a mall food court (the pinnacle of teriyaki in my book).Service is brisk at the counter, and the food was ready mere minutes after we'd chosen our table and visited the (clean) restroom. There's no street parking available, but there's a decently sized garage/lot a few doors down.“
“The chicken plate and the green beans were incredible! The Ponko Palmer was also very good if you like sweet drinks. I also appreciated the customer service. They forgot part of my order, but made it right when I came back and inquired. So glad I stopped here on my trip to Atlanta.“
“Amazing experience! This is easily the best sushi in town. I happened upon Sushi Yoshino by luck - with no expectations. Each dish was exceptional. We tried the Caliente Roll, the classic Spicy Tuna, Rose Roll, and melt-in-your-mouth fatty salmon nigiri. We were swooning at the table. I highly recommend coming here!“
“At this restaurant, you can clearly feel that the food is prepared with the freshest ingredients. The atmosphere and music of this restaurant I visited with my wife were so good that it became a good memory. The staff's service was also great!“
“I never got any food poisoning and I tried 3 different items. I loved the creativity with the sushi. I got the sushi donut (salmon, tuna, spicy tuna, crab salad), sushi corndog, and sushi pizza (salmon). Service was good. Staff was nice. There are benches to sit at if you don’t come at a busy time. Prices are fair.“
“Very good. I have always eaten at Teriyaki Madness at least once when I’ve visited Vegas. Thrilled to see one open in Atlanta. So glad it wasn’t a let down. Spicy chicken was tender, flavorful, and had the right amount of heat. A good and much healthier alternative to burgers and fried food.“
“Stopped in just before a Shen Yuen performance...decided 5o stop in because it looked so inviting, vivacious colorw that pop and a cleanliness you can see and feel from outside the eatery. As we ordered, the cashier was suoer helpful with menu options and offered us ice cream samples which were to die for[a purple, caramel tasting icecream] then in no time at all we were being served our meals at our tables and it was exhibit worthy.... live the staff's friendliness, the taste of authentic raw sushi ? ? and the vibe that you feel within the Sukoshi house.“
“Update 2024: Original review still mostly holds up. This is probably my family's favorite place to go regularly for casual sushi, though I do find the original midtown location superior to this one when I am able to get there. My main issue with this now is that it is small and with a very limited number of 4+ seat tables. It seems like it has gotten more popular, which is great, but when the outdoor seating isn't in play, be prepared to wait for a table especially if your party is larger than 2.Original Review: Really good Japanese food. They have good sushi and sashimi but what really sets them apart is their deeper Japanese fare. They have Ramen, but also Soba, Katsu, and Okonomyaki (and a good Takoyaki app). Back to the Sushi, it's always good to check their specials board (unfortunately located past most of the tables next to the Sushi bar) as they regularly have things like Toro/Otoro, Uni, and fresh Wasabi. It will cost you but is worth it if you are an aficianado.“
“I've always enjoyed the sushi from here. They are relatively fast with orders, I've only ever seen two people working, I assume it's the owners. Well, those two people are the reason I had to write a review. My boyfriend and I decided while shopping we wanted sushi so we decided to pop in and place a to-go order. While we were waiting, the woman came up to us with the warmest smile on her face asking if she could get us a drink or some miso soup. We said that we were ok, and she said something along the lines of ok sorry for the wait! Even though it had only been like three min since placing the order. You could just tell they were putting their all into the service and food. We got our food back very quickly (very quick since we saw the same man make both of our roles- both came out beautifully) and it was amazing.... I've eaten here many times so I knew what I was getting. The cherry on top was when the woman came behind with to go soup and said I just wanted to send you both home with some soup I wish I had enough money to buy sushi from them every night. Pls pls pls consider sushi matsuya for a nice good meal“
“For hibachi to go, you cannot beat this place. It's a special stop anytime I'm working on this side of town. I add a healthy amount of chili sauce for some kick. The portions are large and will fill you up. Price is less than most fast-food spots.“
“My Love and I visited this restaurant on a whim after seeing Jurassic Park. Wonderful decision! While always a sushi lover, never tried a hand roll. Had the spicy tuna one...superb! Also had Wonton soup and split the Hawaiian sushi roll ( after the waitress recommended. She was Great btw!). Will be going back! We've found a jewel!“
“I went after a work meeting as I needed to travel the next day back home and I was told by my hotel staff to come visit and that It was a great experience. I went with leggings and gym shoes on and I was told to turn away and change them come back. I didn't have a problem with that but it seemed that they either weren't use to a person going to this place solo or maybe something else. With me being a woman or color, it was important for me to have a great experience and to be treated well so I came back and had a good experience. The food was great and I loved the presentation. The restaurant was very cold in my opinion which was probably the only issue I had. Next time I would sit in the patio section which seemed really nice.“
“Great food at great price. For what you pay for fast food or even less, you can eat something delicious that won't regret later. Just check their hours before drive thereWent back here after a while and they sure didn't disappoint. I got some friends to drive there and they were very pleased with the experienceKeep it up guys!“
“This place was absolutely amazing! Our server was super nice and checked on us frequently. The food is ultra fresh and tasted divine. The next time we come out we will have to bring the kiddos and experience the hibachi part. Worth every penny we spent on it.“
“The food is Amazing. I love the hours and glad that we finally have a spot besides waffle house for late night eats that’s actually 5 star food! Best egg rolls best crab ragoon best hot and sour. I’ve just been blown away you guys have a lot of best things I’ve had who knew so glad I stumbled in on a whim I will be back!“
“I went to the new location in Sandy Springs in the Whole Foods Shopping Center at Hammond and Roswell Road. The food is great tasting and very healthy!! The owners are passionate about making good tasting food that is healthy. This restaurant is a welcome addition to Sandy Springs. You can dine at the restaurant or just get take out.“
“I hardly write reviews, but had to give a huge shoutout to our favorite sushi spot in Atlanta for their incredible service last night. I’m gluten free and 4 months pregnant so with those two things combined most sushi places would be off limits but not Eight! Our server took the time to walk me through everything on the menu I could still order and even things off menu they could make for me. We landed on the king crab nigiri and off menu avocado shrimp roll with gluten free soy sauce. Both items were fantastic. Our sweet server even brought out this adorable congratulatory dessert at the end! Thanks for another great meal Eight!“
