Kinjo Room

PAID PARKING, WELCOMING SERVICE AND BEAUTIFUL AMBIANCE.I just want to start by saying that I saw some recent conflicting reviews and I want to be honest. The Marage A Trois is a smart cocktail that'll tease your taste buds. The Genmai Daiquiri is a tad complex in flavor because the nutty almonds' undertone. BOTH super tasty drinks that paired well with our food. The Calamari was fried tempura style giving soft crisp with a great flavor profile. Doesn't look like your norm and definitely a 10 on taste. Served w/ spicy mayo and eel sauce. The Baked Mussels was a huge surprise and I didn't even know what to expect . So got damn good. Order 2 because I promise 1 order isn't enough.The Fresh Yellowtail is spicy, savory and super fresh. Pretty straightforward. The Crispy Spicy Tuna roll was super filling, but it wasn't really spicy and it was my least favorite. The spicy tuna was kind of bland. The service was great. They were very attentive.

Kinjo Room is a beautiful, quaint, and high quality sushi spot in West Midtown. We came here for our 20 year anniversary and it definitely did not disappoint! The service was excellent from start to finish. The cocktails were absolutely on point and mixed generously. The sushi was delicious, fresh, and top tier flavors. Highly recommend Kinjo Room for your next date night!

We had a great time at Kinjo Room. The food, drink, service, and ambiance were all excellent. If you're in the mood for high-end sushi, Kinjo Room fits the bill for a nice night out.This place has style *and* substance. They definitely have it going on with the atmosphere. The restaurant design is stunning. Kinjo Room has one of the more memorable interior designs among Atlanta restaurants I've visited in recent memory.I expect no less from the restaurant's namesake, Alex Kinjo. If you're familiar with the Atlanta dining scene, Alex needs no introduction. As I wrote in my review for MF Sushi in Inman Park ( https://bit.ly/3Pr1Icr ), his restaurants have always been swanky and stylish. It's clear Alex is talented when it comes to visual aesthetics. His restaurants are gorgeous. Kinjo Room feels like a luxe Japanese bar and lounge. The aura of Alex's restaurants defines them and sets them apart. Most recently, he opened Kinjo Room in April 2022, Mai Kitchen in August 2022, and Yakitori Kona in September 2023.Kinjo Room is inside The Interlock, the bustling development across from now-old-school Westside Provisions District. This part of town has exploded over the last several years. Next door to Kinjo Room is "Kinjo Next Door," another exquisite space. It functions as an omakase bar, private event space, and an overflow room. Kinjo Room itself isn't huge and indeed can feel more like a large room instead of a restaurant. It's dimly lit and intimate with beautiful decor, comfy sofas and pillows, and some of the most luxurious bar stools I've seen.The most convenient place to park for Kinjo Room is inside The Interlock's deck. For us, it cost $15.45 for 2 hours and $18.45 for 3 hours. Use the ParkMobile app. Zone # 3232. The restaurant does not validate.Book your reservation using OpenTable and earn dining points which can be used to redeem restaurant discounts, Amazon gift cards, hotel stays, and more. I was surprised to see I was awarded 1,000 points for my reservation here. It's been years since I had a 1,000-point reservation on OpenTable. They're usually 100 points each. Thank you, Kinjo Room.Kinjo Room works well solely as a cocktail/sake bar as well as a full-fledged restaurant. Both the food and drink menus offered a solid variety of alcohol, sushi, and non-sushi Japanese or Japanese-inspired dishes. Omakase is available at Kinjo Next Door.

In general, Kinjo Room's sushi was on the same level as I remember from my visits to the various MF Sushi locations over the years. The options for upscale sushi in Atlanta continue to grow and become more competitive. The sushi I had here was comparable to the top places I've been to in recent years (e.g., Nagomiya, NoriFish). The Nigiri Menu included maguro, king sake, sake, chutoro, seared salmon belly, seared hamachi, and A5 wagyu aburi. Each piece was dressed/sauced in some way and every bite was outstanding. The uni, from Hokkaido, was superb. Both it and the otoro stood out. Buttery, melt-in-your-mouth, and packed with umami. Just terrific.The cocktails were phenomenal all-around. If you like old fashioneds, I recommend the Proper Measure. Ours were finished tableside with a flame and smoker. The presentation was fun and the drink's taste was rich and complex as well.Our server Daniel was great. Service was fantastic overall.

Come if youre into aesthethics only. Apple mocktail was good and bartender was great but the sushi and appetizers were forgettable and overpriced. Parking is $20+at the deck. Someone else covered my bill and I still do not think the food was even good. Disappointing because this place is all vibes only.

My boyfriend and I came here on a random day because we have been obsessed with sushi and really wanted to try a more intimate dining experience. KINJO room is located in the interlock. Parking is pretty easy, and we weren't there for very long. Our time spent in the restaurant was due to the fact that the menu didn't really speak to us. We ordered, two things and no cocktails, which is very rare for us. We ordered a fatty tuna sashimi plate that had tiny bumps of caviar on it. And I believe our second dish was a yellow tail, Hachi, for the price given and the flavors, we weren't really interested with the rest of the menu so we walked, I don't think I'll try this place again as it wasn't really for me!

Swanky eatery with a nice vibe. If you are truly hungry, this probably isn't the place for you. I will say that all ingredients were very fresh, and the colors on the plate made the food exciting visually. Our server was very friendly and attentive. The area has come a long way over the years. Kinjo is perfect for a date night (unless you're sitting next to an obnoxious couple with weird conversations lol). I definitely suggest you try this restaurant

Beautiful location. Soft music. Excellent decor. Service was amazing. Very attentive. Food was delicious. I tried various dishes from sushi appetizer, nigiri, sushi rolls and hot dishes. Everything tasted great and full of flavor. Drinks were good and strong! Just how I like it.

We came here for our anniversary dinner celebration. Parking was a breeze, as always at the interlock garage. The host was warm and welcoming, the place is cozy and small but the decor is modern. Very New York style. The bartender was also our server. He was very friendly and helpful. He recommended and suggested good drinks and food as well. I got the kinjo cocktail with matcha and my husband got the bourbon fizz. For appetizers, we got grilled shishito peppers. And we got 3rolls. A negi salmon, shrimp tempura roll and crispy rice tuna roll. The crispy rice tuna was a favorite!! Instead of dessert, we got complimentary shots! We loved this place. I would 100% recommend.

Kinjo room is a beautiful restaurant with fantastic foods. I was worried it would be super busy on a Friday night so we made reservations last minute, but even though it is popular it is clear that they don't overbook their reservations which gives you enough space to enjoy your time without feeling like you are in a super crowded loud restaurant. The decor is beautiful. We sat at the bar even though we had a reservation because we wanted to and the chairs were so comfortable. The bartender gave fantastic recommendations and even made me a custom drink when I couldn't decide what to have. We had 3 different sushi rolls and all were great, as were the shishido peppers, and the dessert was not to be missed. I will be back because this was a great experience!

Wow. Just wow. The interior of this place has such cool dark wood. The service was great. We sat at the bar and had a variety of sashimi. We also got some very unique cocktails. Parking is not validated. But this place is definitely worth it. A very different vibe from some of the other sushi places you might find on Buford Highway. Elegance and elevated
