The Best Sushi Bars in Atlanta

Eight Sushi Lounge

★★★★★ 4.5 (1457) • $$

"10/10 I decided to go on a solo date and this was delicious. The lychee martini's are awesome and such a perfect pairing with the sushi. The Casanova roll, I could marry. It was delicious without leaving super full and just the touch I needed. The bartenders were super friendly and the service was awesome. The renovation is neat as well."

Ray's In the City - Atlanta

★★★★☆ 4 (1370) • $$$

"One of the few nice restaurants in the Atlanta Downtown areas. Thank you.Just landed, checked into the hotel, then came here for our first meal (3 hour time difference from PST).Quality/Quantity - Came here for happy hour. Got the following:New Orleans BBQ Shrimp Ray's Chicken Sandwich - Good. My dish. I am told that Atlanta is known for their chicken and waffles, so this was the closest thing on their HH menu.Wagyu Burger - Also good, done well. Not well done, pun intended.Truffle Parmesan Fries - This was SO good, real shaved truffles! Not just truffle oil. This would have been 5 stars, if we realized that our HH orders also came with fries. We were SO fried out by the end of the meal.HH New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc $8 - So good and refreshing that I got two glasses. Well after a long flight, time changes, etc, I felt I deserved two glasses. They have a decent wine selection, see menu or my pictures of their wines, displays, etc. Full bar, etc.Atmosphere - Nice upscale restaurant.Booth, table, and bar seating.Private or semi private dining available.Clean modern bathrooms.Open 7 days a week: Weekdays from 11:30am to 9pm or 10pm, weekends open for dinner only from 4pm to 9pm or 10pm. See my picture. Hours differ on Yelp and their website.I am told that it is crazy busy after the nearby conventions let out.Events, see website.Also on their website, they preach a dress code. Not sure how I was dressed getting off the plane, but I guess I was dressed good enough to eat here. LOL.Service - Brenda, our bartender, was good. Personable.They also have a loyalty program, see website.Price - $60 + generous tip.Expensive for a HH, but there are just not enough decent good restaurants in the downtown area that are walkable from our hotel. And there are aggressive people in the streets, especially at night, so be safe.Owner Comment - Congrats on your success since 1984 and with your 3 locations. And congrats on your success at this location since 2003."

Atlanta Fish Market

★★★★☆ 3.5 (1376) • $$$

"This is always been my go to place for fresh seafood. Today's visit doesn't change that opinion! It was our birthdays and my friend and I went to eat lunch there. Dennis,, our server has been the best server since I've been going there for over 20 years!we ordered the golf shrimp and she ordered the clam chowder with the wedge salad. Both were excellent! Daniel surprised us with a really nice birthday dessert! He was extremely attentive, and was good in suggesting ideas! Will definitely return again, and again!"

Shoya Izakaya

★★★★☆ 3.8 (1149) • $$

"My friends and I came here on a Saturday night to find their front area FILLED with people waiting. Our party of 3 waited about 30 minutes before getting seated. I specifically was craving sushi so I was confused when there were a limited amount of options on their menu but tons of other noodles, appetizers, and rice bowls to pick from instead. After asking our waitress, we did receive a more expansive maki list so when in doubt, ask. We shared the Caterpillar and salmon skin maki, katsu don, and sukiyaki. Although the more basic choice of the two maki, I certainly preferred the caterpillar maki since I didn't realize it was only going to be salmon skin and not salmon slices. Both the katsu and sukiyaki were well seasoned and served fresh from their kitchen since they were boiling upon arrival.If you're looking to itch your true sushi craving, you may want to venture to other places but otherwise they had plenty of other items to pick from! Portions are a little on the smaller side but given the prices, I feel as though it is evenly matched. Service is on the slower side which makes their little "call lights" at the table convenient even though it still feels a little rude. Would come again to try some of their other items from their menu!"

Nakato Japanese Restaurant

★★★★☆ 3.8 (913) • $$$

"Gotten better. Maybe just a better chef, but everyone at the table loved their meals. Portion size humongous. Everyone had leftovers to take home. Waitress was right on top of everything too.5+. Really.And while most restaurants have increased prices, this seems stable,"

Poke Burri

★★★★★ 4.7 (451) • $$

"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."

Sushi Mito

★★★★☆ 4.3 (434) • $$

"My favorite sushi restaurant in our neighborhood!Don't let the bland exterior and shopping center fool you. This restaurant is perfect for private lunch or dinners. Every table has its own very private booth. There is also a bar area for more casual seating. The food here is fresh and delicious. They have a variety of "bento" entrees if you're feeling a bit of everything. My personal favorite is the Lady's Bento. Service is always amazing. Very friendly and fast. Prices are reasonable. Definitely a neighborhood favorite!"

Fumi Hibachi Sushi and Bar

★★★★☆ 3.6 (595) • $$

"I came here for my birthday on 9/20 and chose the hibachi side. It was amazing! The people here are very friendly and the food and drinks were well made and decently priced! My party had about 12 people and we all were beautifully accommodated. I'll definitely be back"

Circle Sushi

★★★★☆ 4.2 (432) • $$

"I gotta spill the beans about my recent lunch at Circle Sushi--it was seriously awesome! From the moment I stepped in, the vibes were chill and the staff were super welcoming.Now, let's talk lunch. Circle Sushi ain't messin' around with their lunch game. Prices? Totally wallet-friendly. Options? Off the charts. Whether you're into sushi rolls, bento boxes, or a mix of both, Circle Sushi has got you covered.Let's dish about my fave--the spicy salmon roll. Talk about fresh! Every bite was a flavor explosion in my mouth. And don't even get me started on their bento box. It's like a mini food adventure in a box--so satisfying!Bottom line: If you're on the hunt for a killer lunch spot that won't break the bank, Circle Sushi is where it's at. Trust me, you won't regret it!"

EAV Thai & Sushi

★★★★☆ 3.7 (534) • $$

"I've been craving sushi and I'm so glad that I finally got some. I ordered via delivery and I won't lie, some of the older reviews almost scared me off but sometimes you just have to try a place for yourself, and I'm glad that I did!I'm usually an adventurous eater, especially when it comes to sushi because I love a great roll or some sashimi, but as I'm unable to eat raw fish currently, I kept it simple. After indecisively checking out multiple sushi restaurant options for almost an hour, I went with EAV based on the details listed on the menu that allowed me to clearly note if the roll was raw vs. cooked, the roll options (I don't love tempura-only options) and their prices. I decided to go with a basic California roll (which I haven't had since I was like, 5 lol) and their spider roll which includes crab and veggies. I called EAV prior to checking out to confirm that 3 of my initial choices were cooked, and the woman who answered the phone was so kind and patient. I'm so glad that I did call as one roll I was considering was raw. When my rolls made it to my door, they were still in perfect condition and beautifully prepped. In the 'special request' section of my delivery order, I asked for extra ginger and wasabi. I always swear that restaurants don't read those but they did! The rolls were portioned well and packed with crab and veggies. The rice was also perfectly cooked, moist and sticky. I don't think I've scarfed down sushi rolls so quickly in my life, they really didn't stand a chance! I'm so glad that I took the time out to try them for myself!"

Zab-E-Lee Thai & Sushi

★★★★☆ 4 (452)

"Haven't been here in a while, came for lunch and glad that they haven't changed much.. I got some veggies rolls and pad see ew with chicken. It was very flavorful. I'm glad I came and will definitely be back. My friend had the yellow curry and she loved it..."

Flying Roll

★★★★☆ 4.3 (358) • $$

"Overall 5/5: One of my favorite lunch spots for sushi when i'm running errands in the area. Food 5/5: I love the sushi here. their sushi is always so delicious and fun. sushi here is decent priced, very affordable in my opinion. I always get so full here. We got a 2 roll lunch combo with the shrimp tempura & spicy tuna. Simple, but still great flavor. We also got their signature marilyn monroll which was probably our favorite along with the crazy crunch roll. i love the crunch of the shrimp in the crazy crunch, it it like no other. We also got the shrimp fried rice, which had great flavor and was good portioned. The shrimp had a good sauce held to them tipped over a standard fried rice. Service 5/5: Service here is great, the server is fast and never writes anything down but our order has yet to be wrong. She also makes sure our waters are full, and plates are cleared as we go. Ambiance 5/5: This place is casual, but i love the booth set up. It is a small space, but they utilize the space very nicely by having raised dividers between booths along with curtains. This just makes the place cozy, and private between each booth. Definitely recommend this place for a casual lunch with friends or coworkers. Thank you, Flying Roll!!"

Tokyo Bay Japanese Restaurant

★★★★☆ 3.5 (535) • $$

"This place is great if you are looking for all you can eat for a reasonable price! They have a large sushi variety menu which is awesome for you sushi lovers. They also offer other items as well so if you don't like sushi you still have plenty to choose from. Good buffet spot for a good price! Come pig out"

Ru San's

★★★★☆ 3.6 (503) • $$

"My new favorite sushi spot in Buckhead!!! This place has everything you could want: good prices & quality sushi, a HUGE menu, validated parking (and plenty of spaces in the garage), friendly servers, and a spacious restaurant with a patio! I had such a wonderful time here and will absolutely be back soon. I got 2 sushi rolls and it was very affordable and filling!"

MF Sushi

★★★★☆ 4 (384) • $$$

"If I can't get in here because of y'all we are going to box (kidding...) I love sushi and my friend told me about this place. It is very small do with that what you will and is not good for big groups, intimate settings only. The sushi was DELICIOUS, I am ready to go back and even get take out. The service was good. That crunchy roll was surprisingly my favorite roll I tried & that one with Wagyu (I forgot the name) was delicious, pricey but delicious. The parking garage is right next to the restaurant so if the weather is bad you will be covered."

Silom Thai & Sushi

★★★★☆ 4.2 (346) • $$

"I have seen this place get plenty of good reviews and decided to test this place out myself. This place lives up to its name. Good food, great atmosphere, nice service, and the decorations are one of a kind.I ordered the One Night in Bangkok sushi roll. Unique sushi roll that tasted great. I also order the Drunken Man Noodle Chicken dish. Tasted good but nothing special. The decorations are amazing and the service is decent. Pretty good date spot."

Yuzu Sushi

★★★★★ 4.5 (298) • $$

"Yuzu Sushi was okay. It didn't give me the wowing impression I was seeking. Plus with the high prices, I think this place is overrated. There was a good amount of folks coming and going within a couple of hours of them opening. But I think this place is more of a quick sushi sit down spot with high prices. The interior begs to differ, but that's my experience. Hey, not all reviews/experiences are winners.The positive thing I will say is that some of their menu items were quite unique. The B.S.C. (baked scallop over a California roll) was super delicious! The sashimi salad on the other hand was so so.The B.S.C. was unique in that the baby scallops were warm and creamy. The sauce really made a difference as it sat upon a California roll. I guess the creaminess of the scallops really amped up the basic California. This ended up being a hit with me.Though the sashimi salad was interesting. It somehow was just meh to me. There was about 6 (?) sashimi pieces. The garlic ponzu sauce was light, but it was also over a light bed of salad. I guess I somehow expected something else, something more grandeur. This pick just didn't provide the oohs and ahhs.I kind of had high hopes for the 911 roll. It sort of looked and tasted bland imo. Though the 911 sauce was different, the albacore, tuna, crab, salmon, and avocado were so so. If you think about it, these miniature pieces of fish were plain. I guess it falls in line with the "fresh" category but not so much "Yuzu Sushi Special Rolls." How special was it really?!I think the other roll we tried was the double tuna roll. This roll had a lot of frills, and there were lots of textures and flavors to be had. The red onion slices really stuck out in my mind as I'm trying to recall which roll we had. This roll was overall pretty good. I guess the spicy tuna and seared tuna made it more hearty.I get that sushi has their different types: fresh sashimi, plain jane rolls, and unique creations. But for 3 "special" rolls and a sashimi salad, the grand total with tip was around $70. The hubs and I left feeling kind of hungry and not really impressed (flavor/taste). Though it was still early dinner on a Friday, everyone seemed super rushed (like they will run you over if you don't move over fast enough). Maybe that has an affect on the fish's flavoring? Lol."

Yokohama Sushi

★★★★★ 4.5 (294) • $$

"Certain items were okay while other choices were better.The ramen we chose (iekei ramen) was so so. We figured since the original recipe came from Yokohama, Japan that it would be interesting to try. It's a mixture of tonkotsu and shoyu soup which turned out to be a tad salty imo. It overall wasn't bad nor good. Just so so.White tiger roll: This spicy tuna and eel roll was pretty tasty. There definitely was a slight kick in spice. Overall a pleasant roll that's not too crazy in ingredients nor taste.On the bayou roll: This was really different and tasty. The deep fried crayfish was definitely interesting. The little crayfish provided a nice crunch in texture with the spicy tuna. Although this roll appears to be crazy, it was a rather mellow. You pretty much taste the crayfish in all its dough glory.I would definitely come to Yokohama sushi again and try their abundant menu. There was a great deal of people around dinner time on a Friday evening so popularity at this place wasn't lacking by any means."

Thrive

★★★★☆ 3.6 (436) • $$

"Bar service sucks. Really BADLY! We sat there for ten minutes and nobody looked at me nor my colleague! No acknowledgment whatsoever! Daaaanngggg. The bar was cluttered with dirty glasses on the bar top and tables too! It appeared that they had nobody bussing them. Ew. We moved to a dining room table and our cute server YoYo was a sweet gal but slightly vapid. We were told that they had no sake in the place either. Wow. It took 40 minutes for our food to arrive and then out came our salads! This should have been brought out first! The timing and thoughtfulness was lacking and I do NOT blame our server as this is an obvious negligence of the management to not instruct their employees better. Our food was very tasty, however, and well-prepared to boot. I don't recommend coming here if you're in a hurry. Just saying."

Sri Thai Kitchen & Sushi Bar - Atlanta

★★★★☆ 4 (344) • $$

"10/10Service was great! Bartenders Kayla and Juju were awesome and super attentive. Amazing lychee martini and the ocean roll was amazing, the roll was pretty large and very filling. I'd come back for sure."

Sushi Kiku

★★★★☆ 3.6 (391) • $$

"50% off all sushi. All the sushi has tasted great.The place is clean on the inside and not busy when I visited.The sushi seems to be priced a little higher than other locations but the sushi is much bigger. Sushi is so big that it may fall apart while eating but that is not a big deal.I ordered the Superman roll, Lenox roll, and Lobster soup. The Lobster soup was a complete miss. There was a ton of mushrooms and a few lobster pieces at the bottom of the bowl but not worth ordering. The Superman roll uses soy paper instead of seaweed wrap. The Lenox roll is a deep fried tempura wrap and it is delicious."

Yoi Yoi Japanese Steakhouse & Sushi

★★★★☆ 3.9 (322) • $$

"We were craving sushi and stopped by for a few rolls. They seemed like a family-owned small business, with their daughters playing at a table - it reminded me of my own childhood! The service was super friendly. All the fish that we had was fresh. We tried a few Regular Rolls and a Tempura Fried Roll (Godzilla). The tuna inside the Godzilla Roll was cooked, which makes sense looking back, but wasn't what I was expecting when ordering.Since we went on my sister's birthday, we got a free Tempura Cheesecake! It was really yummy - the outside was crispy, while the inside was warm and oozy."

Ru Sans

★★★☆☆ 3.1 (506) • $$

"The food was really good and plentiful! Enough to share for 2 people for around $23.00! I had the grilled shrimp and scallops and grilled veggies with cucumbers and other veggies. It also came with white rice and soup. Service was fast and friendly and a nice ambiance for a moderate date or family friendly. Located on a 2nd floor where you have to take stairs so wear comfortable shoes."

Pacific Rim Bistro

★★★★☆ 3.7 (324) • $$

"Slow service and mediocre food. Not bad for the area but, for the price, I was hoping for more. Comfy patio and not too crowded during a convention in town."

SriThai Thai kitchen & sushi bar - Snellville

★★★★☆ 3.6 (338) • $$

"The food is always great as is the customer service. The ambiance is great for intimate dining, lunchtime, or dinner. I always enjoy stopping in!Today m, I had my fav ... Chicken Larb and sticky mango rice for dessert. (Lite meal). The best servers in my opinion are Kay and Pim!!!"

Rain Thai and Sushi Bar

★★★★☆ 3.6 (331) • $$

""A pleasant and delicious Thai Food expérience"We walked into Rain for dinner on a busy shopping evening. The restaurant is nestled in the Publix grocery plaza on Cheshire Bridge Road; with plenty of parking stalls around it. We were greeted by what appeared to be the owner/manager upon entry and were sat by the gazebo at the left end of the dining room whereby large padded leather booths overlook the plaza through its floor to ceiling glass windows and wooden shutters. The decor is modern browns and woods with Asian undertones in the form of drill bits on the leather chairs or the rust metal barrels amongst other Knick knacks around the dining room. The ambiance is very cozy casual and we dined on a soundtrack of Diana Krall and Sade style playlist on the speakers. Our meal started with a super light and refreshing. bowl of the lemongrass soup that consisted of Shrimp, kaffir leaves, lime, tomatoes, mushrooms, scallions, cilantro and chili paste ($7.95); wow!Next came the appetizer-sized Rain Salad, that was served in a lovely square ceramic bowl; and was filled with Lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes and drizzled with homemade ginger dressing ($4.95); what a nice follow up! Another appetizer; the Panong Gyoza platter ($7.95) came with 5 nicely steamed dumplings that were filled with chicken and vegetables with a side of panang curry sauce - it is definitely a must add to your dining experience if you like gyoza or dumplings in general! Delicious!For the main course, the mildly spicy Basil Seafood bowl strutted down our table immediately after the gyoza. It consisted of Scallops, calamari. shrimps with a nice basil sauce ($24.95). The seafood was lightly pan fried then steamed and came out fork tender while the basil soy sauce base that added the right amount of tanginess to the mix. We chose a plain fried rice side ($4.95) which turned out to be a generous portion of rice with green peas, carrots and eggs; yum! Yum! Yum!We finished our dinner with a mango sticky rice dessert ($7.95) - the sticky rice was nice and warm while the cold, freshly sliced ripened mango slices were a perfect accompaniment to the condensed milk base sauce. Altogether; Rain is a pleasant and delicious Thai food experience on Cheshire Bridge Road; the all-Thai staff was extremely attentive and service was prompt and unhurried. We will definitely return!"

26 Thai Sushi & Bar - Brookhaven

★★★★☆ 4.3 (230) • $$$

"10/10Literally a hidden gem! This place is SO cute and they have so many options. I'm honestly super surprised this place wasn't as busy as they were. The Lychee Martini pairs perfectly with the sushi. Dean our bartender was wonderful and super warm, he gave us a little history on the company and how long they've been here and other locations. The sampler was 10/10 and for $41 you really can't beat it. Now the black and white sushi wasn't my favorite, for my taste it was too cream cheesy but I should've chosen that. This place is cute either for a date night, a girls catch up, or just a solo date. I'll 100% be back"

Bangkok Thyme

★★★★☆ 3.7 (302)

"I had high hopes for Bangkok Thyme after seeing it featured on a local television segment. We were greeted cordially upon entry by a lady who was most likely an owner or manager. After being seated it took some time for us to decide upon our orders so eventually a different lady checked on us. This lady was totally robotic, no smile, no enthusiasm or energy. It was very difficult for her to answer questions about the menu and the options offered. We decided to just point to the items and take them as the chef prepared them. We ordered an appetizer of squid rings which came AFTER our main entrees arrived. We had a sushi order as an app and it arrived with our entrees.The squid rings were tasty and I'd order them again if I ever returned. My entree was so underwhelming I don't remember what it was. The miso soup was ok, and the California rolls were okay.Maybe I should have arrived with a television film crew in order to be treated like a valued customer. The menu isn't cheap versus the quality of the service and the mediocrity of the food. It will be a long Thyme before I return to Bangkok Thyme!"

Sushi Itto

★★★★☆ 3.8 (277)

"Thank you YelpLand... A really quality place. I had the place all to myself at 5pm ish last week, though there were several to go orders being picked up while I was dining.My only complaint, thus 4 stars, is that I had to wade through the menu to find rolls that didn't come with "crab stick"... you know KRAB. Not only am I willing to pay for fresh cuts instead of the processed filler, I avoid it at all costs."

Sushi Yoko

★★★★☆ 3.8 (277) • $$

"Drove by this spot countless times but finally checked out Sushi Yoko. After stopping by the Tomato 2 Japanese Grocery Store, we stopped by and had a quick lunch. PRO: - Affordable! You don't see $10.95 lunch combos around very much anymore so imagine our surprise when you have 24 options to choose from. Everything on the menu seems very reasonable for lunch. All lunch orders come with ginger salad, miso soup and rice. - Service was good. Our food arrived pretty quick and presentation was nice. CONS:- Location isn't very convenient and the space is very dated. The entrance isn't very obvious and honestly doesn't look very nice from the outside. Main entrance leads down a hall that has two doors at the end: one for the Japanese market and the other for the restaurant. Sashimi quality was OK - not the freshest but you're getting this at a steal. Ginger sauce on the salad was yummy. Grilled salmon was very good albeit it's a small piece. Udon was very basic with only a piece of sweet tofu on top and some scallions. No other garnishes. Parking: private lot (free)Overall, it's A-OK. Glad we had the opportunity to try this place."

Kobe Steakhouse

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (346) • $$

"It was good didn't sit around the big table but I want to say the food was delicious and I felt got a lot more sitting alone. Presentation was wonderful and service was excellent extremely well I will be back IRecommend that everyone go here for hibachi the wait isn't long at all."

Wild Ginger

★★★★☆ 3.8 (270) • $$

"Wild Ginger is my go-to Thai takeout spot in Dunwoody. Whether it's the Thai spice I am craving to clear my sinuses or provide comfort on a rainy day, Wild Ginger is a consistent contender on DoorDash for me. I usually pick up to save on delivery charges and their "drive thru" pick up window is super convenient. They are almost always done with my meal before the predicted time and the food is always hot, spicy and fresh. My go-to orders are the spicy basil fried rice or the pad kee mao - you can adjust the spice level but be warned that it can get SUPER spicy, no matter your tolerance level for spice. I usually go with "Hot" and even for me, that is sometimes a little painful. I recently tried the Panang curry and the "hot" was spicy but also balanced by the coconut milk. I was surprised that the mango sticky rice delivered well, especially in the winter. I would say that the warm sticky rice was much better than the out of season mango. But everything tastes better with a drizzle (or pool) of condensed milk!Rainy weather forecast for the rest of the week... calls for another takeout order for Wild Ginger!"

Boruboru sushi

★★★★☆ 4.1 (229) • $$

"I am impressed with this fast casual spot! Boruboru Sushi is more like a poke place even though "sushi" is in the title, it kinda throws you off a little.Takoyaki: The hubs seemed to really liked this, and for good reason as it was delightful. The textures and flavors were superb. You can get either a quantity of 2, 4, 6, and possibly even 8 (?). The extra sauce and ingredient tidbits were great. It came out all warm and soft.Boruboru style: The bowl was really delicious!! There was a lot of great textures and flavors that hit me right away. Even the cucumber's shape was unique; I think it made it taste better. :) The tuna chunks were visually striking as it was in big cubes versus little pieces. The portions did appear to have more compared to other places.Fried salmon skin: The crunchy salmon skin was amazing! The sushi burrito was quite messy to eat. The guy did warn us that we should unravel as we go. I really liked how the wrapping was made out of seaweed, but it was rather thin and tears easily. The spinach was a little strange, but it worked well balancing out the salmon. The jalapenos gave this a slight kick in spice.If you're wondering, parking in the garage will be validated so no worries there."

Planta

★★★★☆ 4 (235)

"Came here for happy hour and was pleasantly surprised! One of the best happy hour menus I've seen in a minute and I'm not even vegan. They have drinks and food. The bartender was so sweet and gave us some suggestions. Artichoke dip and expresso martini's what more can you ask for!? I believe the happy hour is over at six and you must sit at the bar."

Fukulala

★★★★☆ 4.4 (185) • $$

"This place is beyond!Stopped into Fukulala for an early dinner with a friend. Nestled in a busy shopping center, however we were able to find parking quickly and were seated immediately. Service was quick and helpful. This place immediately gives off chill vibes with its cozy seating and calming lighting. We immediately ordered. We order the pork belly buns, soju to drink, and a few of the shrimp and salmon signature rolls. Everything was delicious! And good size portion for everything. It was awesome to see it all be made but even better when it tasted amazing! Definitely will be back whenever I'm on this side of town."
