“The attention to detail from everyone worling here is a work of art within itself that needs to be brought attention to and sincerely appreciated. If you don't know what to order here, the Toro is the one thing you need to try here! This fatty tuna is so buttery and smooth to the point where it melts in your mouth when you bite into it.“

“7/29 update:
I got in touch with Pokeworks Corporate and they were deeply apologetic about the experience. I really appreciated that. They also offered me a credit for the meal which is what I’d hoped the manager would have considered.

For these reasons, I’m updating this to five stars across the board. I appreciate when a company truly follows through on making things right.

Previous review 7/20/2026
If you’re ordering anything with shrimp and upon physical visual inspection, you realize that the shrimp sticks to the tongs or is unusually mushy? Do yourself a favor and order something different.

Ruined my evening with bad shrimp and even worse customer service.

When the associate was putting the shrimp in the bowl, I noticed how unusually mushy and sticky it was. Her response to me was “oh, I grabbed it too hard. That’s why.“

Cue me 10 minutes later, biting into what I thought was regular shrimp and spitting it out right after. It was watery, mushy and had no flavor.
I was genuinely concerned that the shrimp was not safe to eat.

So I made my way back to the store to let them know. I asked for a refund because I did not trust them remaking my meal with whatever shrimp they currently have that day.

The associate I spoke to texted the manager, and her response was “the issue has been acknowledged, but because you walked out with your food, there is no refund and no remake.”

You acknowledge that your shrimp is not in good condition, but you’re not going to make it right and I’m out of money and out of dinner.“

“I had an excellent experience at Sayo. From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by the welcoming atmosphere, attentive service, and overall quality of the restaurant. The sushi was fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. Every dish was prepared with great attention to detail, and the service was professional and courteous throughout the entire visit.

It’s clear that Sayo takes pride in both the quality of their food and the experience they provide to their guests. I truly enjoyed my visit and would highly recommend Sayo to anyone looking for a great sushi restaurant with excellent food, service, and atmosphere. I’m definitely looking forward to coming back!“

“I love going to Genki! The food is always soooo bomb and the drinks are always on point!! Go and get a spot at the bar and let them know I sent you 🧡 Also go see my girl Halie 🎉 she’ll get you right“

“This is some of the tastiest food I’ve had. It never disappoints. In fact, it gets better every time I go in! Plus the team is so warm and kind. They remember their customers and really make my family feel welcome. Highly recommended. Favorites include the crispy rice, the curry, and anything with tuna.“

“My home away from home 🖤🖤🖤“

“Amazing sushi! I was nearby for a conference and discovered this place at the food hall in Colony Square. I wasn’t incredibly hungry and ordered the Sashimi sampler and miso soup. Both great! The sashimi sampler is a great choice when you can’t decide between which fish to order. My go-tos are yellowtail and tuna but man, the salmon was delicious and better than most places I’ve ordered salmon from. All the fish I had was super fresh! The staff was super friendly! Highly recommend this place!“

“Food was great and the service was friendly. Everything was enjoyable!“

“Great service. Food was amazing, with nicely size portions. The atmosphere was nice, and elegant. I will be returning!“

“We really enjoyed our cocktails and food! The music was Al’s fantastic! Mimi took great care of us! Next time we come to Atlanta, we will definitely be back!!“

“I've been going here for over 20 years. The food is always very fresh, delicious, and the presentation is outstanding. The service is friendly and always super attentive! Huge variety on their menu - plenty for the non-sushi lover too. But come for the special rolls...they are some of the most creative you'll see anywhere!“

“Outstanding food and service. The sushi was very good and arrived quickly. Highly recommend!“

“As my friend and I walked in, we were immediately greeted by Dominick and we were seated in a very plush chair. We could see the entire room from where we were seated. The patrons were of all ages (no children). The ambience is of modern flare compared to the old world Japanese style and house music vibes gave the restaurant superb energy. We had the Nice Pear and Kinjo cocktails. They were beautifully executed and not too sweet. A very nice combination of flavors and herbs. We shared the Shrimp Tempura which was lightly breaded (yay!) We also had the Uni and the Spicy Tuna roll, all filled with scrumptious flavors and well presented. To top this off, we ate the Lady M cake and it was to die for. Very light, crisp, and melts in your mouth. Throughout the evening, Dominick was very attentive and made sure our visit was an outstanding one. Our waitress (I apologize I forgot your name) was very knowledgeable with the menu and prompt on getting our orders out. Kudos to Dominick, the waitress, the chef, and the bartender!“

“Good stuffs, good service“

“Incredible quality creativity presentation and authentic Japanese dishes. Over the top omakase and just brimming with freshness sashimi and sushi. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“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。“

“Pokeworks is my favorite place to get poke in Atlanta. Their ingredients are always fresh and large portioned. My only complaints are that sometimes the mobile orders get mixed up (i've gotten other people's poke bowl and missed items a few times), and the straw for the bubble tea is not large enough for the bubbles. Hopefully it's something that can be worked on! But overall i love this place and come here every week.“

“Great sushi 🍣 we love Taka! They have delivery on Postmates too.“

“Liked the 2-entrees plate there. They also have daily special items that varies, kind of good. They also have happy-hour price, liked it!

Only issue is about the smell inside. But I guess that’s a thing for all restaurants. Overall, a good place to order takeout.“

“Good food,great people,fantastic atmosphere 🍻“

“Tofu poke bowl with kale and cucumbers is really, really good, would probably add a little extra spice to the order next time for my tastes. Also, miso soup is good, too; not the BEST, but better than some of the misos I've had at other establishments ( even more traditional Japanese spots ) over the the past few years. Service was polite, friendly, and helpful. They have some canned drinks there I've never seen before anywhere else that look delicious ( punch, lychee, etc. ) but I didn't get any of those on this trip.“

“We loved it .. definitely will be back !“

“I'm thrilled to share my latest review! My friend and I recently visited Chattahoochee Food Works, and it was love at first bite all over again. The combination of succulent shrimp, flavorful rice, and refreshing seaweed salad, topped with spicy mayo and eel sauce, is absolute perfection. The atmosphere is invigorating, and the service is exceptional, thanks to the lovely Queen who attended to our needs with kindness and politeness. I'm already looking forward to my next visit this weekend!🩷🩷“

“I usually get the Shrimp pad Thai which is always phenomenal. I decided to change up and get the steamed vegetables with shrimp with the teriyaki sauce. Just like the pad Thai The Steamed vegetables with shrimp were out of this world. Vegetables were perfectly cooked and A lot of juicy shrimp and the teriyaki sauce is to die for. Everything this restaurant has is great“

“Food was absolutely amazing! Wasn’t able to take a picture of the tonkotsu ramen and tonkatsu set because I got too excited to eat it! Would definitely come back ❤️“

“Best sushi we have eaten and the presentation was amazing! Will definitely be back!“

“Rays is my favorite restaurant downtown. Always top notch food. T is the best server!“

“Food was great but service was very slow. Waiter was pleasant but inefficient. Several drinks not correct. Had to ask more than once for bread refills. When credit card was given to pay the bill, the bill came to the table but the credit card was not included although it was eventually returned. This is contrary to our previous experience at this restaurant.“

“Japanese Sushi Menu with a creative flare!“

“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“

“They were so nice and kind. We got signature Poke bowls, and Tofu&Veggie bowl. They have many options of protein as raw and cooked seafood. Also many options of sauces as Vegan and Vegatarian sauces. Even tofu, they had normal tofu and fried one. The place was quite clean and cozy. I also got green tea bottle from here. They also have Ramyeon machine for korean ramen.“

“There was nothing like the experience at Thrive. I was made to feel welcome as soon as I came in. The hostess had a big smile on her face and was really polite. She led us to our table, and as soon as we were seated, our waitress welcomed us, took our drink orders, and informed us of the day's specials. The manager visiting our table to thank us for coming in added to the evening's specialness, and the meal was excellent. Without a doubt, I'll be going back to this eatery.“
