Kani House is always a good choice. The sushi is fresh and creative, service is great, and their cocktails are good too! They hit all the marks
Chef Mathew Choi...... amazing human, and even better host. Haven't had this much fun at hibachi in such a long time!
Hidden gem in Buford! 🍣 Definitely one of the best sushi bars around. The fish is always super fresh, every bite is full of flavor, and the whole experience is amazing. Morris is the best server—friendly, attentive, and always takes great care of us. Highly recommend this place!
