50 Best Japanese Restaurants near Dunwoody

“Overall: AMAZING!!! 1000/10. I can't wait to return. Customer Service: Kauă was our server and he did not disappoint! He was so helpful and recommended the best specialty sushi that wasn't raw! Often times, servers will speak fast and rush you, but I did not feel this with Kauă. He was patient, kind and really catered to my needs of why could not eat raw sushi. Food: Chef's kiss. Everything was a 10/10. My husband wasn't in the mood for sushi but quickly changed his mind after eating and thanked me so much for picking this restaurant for dinner. We will be back. The freshness and size of the sushi is worth every penny. I didn't feel skimp by size like other places I have tried. Ambience: The restaurant dark, moody decor was jaw dropping! The owner did an amazing job to the details. Parking: There's a parking garage below the restaurant and the first two hours are free. The restaurant does not validate.“

“Food and serve were spectacular! We for a kiddos birthday that loves sushi, but he ended up more at the hot bar! 100% recommend!“

“First time there. Had a great experience!“

“Exceptional service, delicious food and fun atmosphere. I highly recommend this restaurant.“

“This a Roswell gem! We throughly enjoyed our meal - a few rolls and chicken fried rice for us today, but there’s so much on the menu (even some Korean dishes!) that I’ll definitely be back to try. The chefs even came out to check on us - you can tell they put a lot of care into everything they prepare and want you to enjoy your meal. Prices are also very reasonable. A few comments mention the funny location (it’s by a Chevron) but don’t let that deter you! It is cozy, clean, and comfortable inside. I recommend everyone support this wonderful local business ❤️“

“Great Experience, excellent sushi and the Baos are amazing.“

“really amazing food. so fast and delicious! wonderful experience! Kaya Signature with the Karaage ...perfect spice, flavor, texture, broth. we were here at noon and had our food in 15 min from the moment we walked in the door and we did not rush to order.“

“Good stuffs, good service“

“I love this place! Such a diverse menu and delicious flavors.“

“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 have been wanting to try Nakato for a long time. We finally had the chance this past Saturday. We loved everything 🥰I feel privileged to go to a distinct place like this 🙏Highly recommend!“

“It's good amount of food. You get a paper and you order what you like. I have a lot of big respect for local restaurant and small business because it's not easy out there. For our experience, service was nice. Sushi and hibachi rice, wings were okay. They need more seasoning. The hibachi meat need to be cook better; Sushi needs to have more flavor. Just work on it and may your business last long.“

“Tomo is where to go for elevated sushi. There are lots of good or ok sushi restaurants in Atlanta, but we like to go there when we want great sushi. We started our meal with black cod, served hot and eaten like a lettuce wrap. The sweetness from the fish was incredible. We had some seaweed salad to transition to the crab jalapeno, which was ready crabmeat rolled in cucumber, serves on a light green jalapeno sauce. Simple and delicious. The spicy tuna on rice cakes was my favorite, balancing flavor and crunch. The kampachi tartar was brilliant, with diced kampachi and pine nuts mixed together, topped with green fish eggs, and a flavorful foam to spoon on top. Wow!“

“The food is so good and warming. The staff is always so kind and welcoming. I have been going here often for months and it has been wonderful every time.

If you are looking for a warm bowl served with a warm smile, this is the place.“

“Super great experience!! Love it here:)“

“Always amazing food and service!! It's definitely my go-to sushi spot, everytime! I love the complimentary dessert they serve at the end as well, its just icing on the cake!! xoxoxo“

“Really good food and a pretty good price too. Though, one time we ordered food, then after ordering, we had an emergency we had to leave for. So, I let the staff know that we wanted that food to-go. They brought us twice the amount of food of the same order. One for dine in, and one for to-go and we got charged for both. Might've just been a miscommunication, but still.“

“One of the best sushi restaurants in the state! Everything tastes great, and the family who own and run it take great pride in the service and quality. The ginger dressing is hand made every day. Ask for the KC roll or the caterpillar roll, or just have the sushi lunch.“

“This was our first time ordering from this restaurant via EA and we get sushi at least once a week. We were beyond pleasantly surprised at the quality (sashimi especially) and the portions and even the packaging - the salmon special dinner came in a gift box. We plan to go in person next week to try the place out, super surprised to have found this place.“

“We stopped in here on a whim... spontaneous night out. The place has japanese vibes inside and was quite comfortable. They appeared busy and our food still came out fast. Food..... was GREAT. Best fried rice we have ever had. We did the large sashimi platter, and some Nigiri blue fin Toro and wagyu A5. I see a bad review or two in the reviews.... not sure if they caught them on a bad night or something but, for us.... this was great. Added to our list we would consider becoming regulars.“

“Amazing experience! The food is SO incredibly fresh and delicious! This is the best sushi I have had in Cherokee county, no doubt.“

“Hands down, the best sushi I've ever had. They incorporate truffle oil in some of their rolls and if you like truffle, you cannot go wrong. Very savory. I'd recommend the avocado balls, crunchy spicy tuna roll and the snow crab in miso soup. The truffle aioli salmon appetizer is another hit. The cocktails - Wow! Thai Me Up is a their version of a spicy margarita but they use some sort of oil and it is delicious! I'll be craving that drink for a long time. It's not cheap but if you're looking for a treat or have a special occasion, it's a full recommend from me! Thank you goes out to Kelly, our server, who steered us towards the fantastic dish selections.“

“The food exceeded expectations. The nigiri and shashimi slices were thicker than other places, fresh, and tender. Service was great as well.“

“We love sushi and had eaten at all the nicest sushi restaurants in Atlanta except for this one, so we decided to try it. We had the premium omakase and it was AMAZING. This was both of our favorite experience - usually I prefer more fun and flavorful rolls (ie like Eight) and my husband likes his sushi more pared down (ie Tomo, Nobu, Mujo), but the sushi struck the perfect balance of letting the fish shine without being boring, adding a hint of flavor to enhance. I never eat wasabi but the wasabi relish was incredible - I put on every bite! John, our server, was professional and personable and made our dinner very special - great recs and accommodations! We usually dine out on special occasions (bdays, anniversaries) and it’s not uncommon for it to go unrecognized.. this was the opposite experience. Just a night out but it felt very special. We also loved the vibe- not stuffy or pretentious (some babies even which I don’t think is common but we didn’t care, they didn’t detract!) while maintaining high caliber of service and food. Overall, 10/10 and we will definitely be back. Our new favorite sushi restaurant!“

“Wow! The new management/owners of Wasabi have made great changes. The food (especially the sushi) is delicious - everything was fresh and presented in a lovely way. The restaurant is bright and comfortable. The staff is efficient and the service is fast. We stopped in for a quick dinner and it was delicious and fast. It's still a great place for a relaxed dining experience, but the new team is really firing on all cylinders. Our server, Alex, was great. Highly recommend for a relaxed dining experience or a quick delicious dinner.“

“Great service, hot seasoned food, very impressive. Sushi was great! Hibachi was great! Salt and pepper shrimp great!“

“Literally the best sushi in Georgia - if not the best sushi I have ever had in the states. Grew up going here and you get an authentic experience with FRESH sushi. ? bento box is also top notch if you’re not feeling sushi. Would recommend to anyone but be careful - Tanaka will get you hooked. Great food and very reasonable prices for what you get.“

“Spicy tuna poke bowl w/seaweed salad was excellent.“

“Real Japanese - Peruvian fusion cuisine that can easily become a favorite spot.“

“Our family has enjoyed this restaurant for 7 years at the old and new locations. The service is great, food is good and Michael makes hibachi fun for our kids.

Vegetarian options: Made to order

Kid-friendliness: Kid friendly“

“Amazing, fresh food. I had the hibachi & hubby got sushi. Was absolutely divine. So filling and fresh - the miso soup was a flavor bomb of goodness & the salad was so crisp like it had JUST been cut. Sauces and sushi were all on point. We loved this place.“

“Absolutely loved the Teriyaki Chicken🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟. Very flavorful, rates the best I have had, cooked to perfection. Came complete with house salad and soup. Sushi was excellent. The staff was very friendly and great service. Modest decor but loved it! No overbearing loud music so you can enjoy conversation with family and friends.

A tucked away gem.“

“グレードの高い刺身が沢山。 オーナーさんもとても親切で居心地が良いです。“

“Ive always enjoyed the menu and service at Umi. The issue that I run into pretty consistently is having reservations, showing up on time for said reservation, and being told the table isn't ready. I understand that Umi is busy and rightfully so, but it does leave a bad impression that after checking into reservation on time we are still waiting for 20 sometimes up to 30 mins for our table to be available. It's sometimes frustrating because if we have reservations following our dinner, it puts us behind.“

“Simply the BEST Ramen Soup ever 😎“

“Not only does the place smell so good inside… food is hot crisp and delicious!“

“My family and I ate here for dinner and it was great. We are not from the area so a Google search was done to read reviews and we decided to give it a try despite the 3.9 rating. The food was delicious and the service was great. If we are ever in the area again we won't hesitate to eat here again.“

“I went there today to try the food since I wanted to get some Chinese food and I haven’t been to north lake mall in a long time.

When I entered the lady in front waved at us to go to her. She is a very nice lady, patient and overall great customer service.

All the food was fresh, hot, and tasty. The portions and price of the food were very good too. I got Mongolian chicken which was very good, fried rice and greens beans as well which were also very good. She let me try the peach drink which was very refreshing and good.

I recommend if you’re in the area for some good Chinese food, please come support and try it!“

“I loved my experience at Norifish and couldn’t recommend them more. Please make sure you get over there *expeditiously*! The customer service is exceptional from the minute you walk in, to the moment you leave. All of the staff were warm, professional, and knowledgeable about the dishes. Even more exceptional is the food. We did the 18 dish Omakase tasting menu and every dish was good! I was so surprised and expected it to be more hit and miss. Instead, it was hit after hit. I can’t wait to go back and explore more of their menu.“

“Went by for lunch today with a friend. I always order to-go from here, but decided to stop by. Their lunch Bento Boxes are so much food. Really enjoyed everything with the fried dumplings, California rolls, Miso Soup and my teriyaki steak. My friend got the Salmon Bento Box and was really delicious as well.Loved watching all the chefs here cooking all the onions and dishes. So much flavor all around, I will keep coming back for sure. Love having this place in the community :)“

“My friends and I came and all got multiple things. The salmon sushi burrito was so good! They enjoyed the pho, not too spicy. My absolute favorite though was the ramen. The closest to authentic Japanese I have found in GA! So so good! Will be back!“

“They have catered for 2 of my events and have always been super professional and very reasonably priced. If we are talking about the food, their food is by far some of the best hibachi I’ve had in Atlanta. Their sauces especially the Diablo sauce are amazing !!!! Put Diablo sauce on your shrimp and chicken and thank me later!“

“Went to this place in Doraville, GA called Yebisuya where I had Omurice for the first time along with a Yebisuya Bun that I also got and tried for the first time. Omurice: although this wasn't the Omurice I was expecting this was definitely still a very delicious version. Underneath is a bed of fried rice that was just so good with an omelet layered on top of it. They give you 3 sauce choices Spicy Kewpie Mayo, Ketchup, and Tonkatsu sauce. I chose the spicy mayo which by the way wasn't spicy at all I could have ate a ton of that stuff with no problem and those that know me know I don't handle spice well lol. Yebisuya Bun: is basically a steamed bun with chicory, scallion, and I got it with Tonkatsu pork in it and yall when I tell yall I could have ate 10 of these bad boys. The bun was so soft and the filling was sooooo flavorful like you just have to try it. Go check these guys out the next time you're in Georgia or if you live in Georgia. 8.9/10 6035 Peachtree Dunwoody Rd, Doraville, GA 30360“

“Really enjoy my experience every time I visit. Food is awesome and the price is great.“

“A must visit. You are missing out =)“

“Fantastic food and service! 2.5 miles from our house!!!“

“I’m new to the area and decided to give this place a try JP Sushi and I’m so glad I did! The food was absolutely excellent, fresh, and full of flavor. You can tell they really care about quality, and every dish we tried was made with attention to detail.

Being new here, it’s nice to find a spot that feels welcoming, and the staff were friendly and helpful in making recommendations. I’m looking forward to coming back regularly and trying more of the menu!“

“Omakase? More like Omaorgasm because that’s what it sounded like every time 8 adults was given the next course or dish. Every time we took a bite of whatever Yun gave us we closed our eyes and sat back in our chairs and started moaning. Hell I don’t think I’ve heard my wife moan that much before but then again I don’t think I’ve moan that much either. Needless to say we can’t wait to come back and try it again and again and again...Mmmmmmm oooooooooo mmmmmmm lol“
