Backed by Justin Lim and chef Sean Park of Okiboru Tsukemen and Ramen, NoriFish offers three omakases serving between 10 and 17 items per option and ranging in price from $60 to $150. Expect sushi like wild yellowtail snapper with yuzu ponzu, Serrano chili, and blood orange and striped jack fish with nikiri, pecorino Romano, and lime during an omakase here. Fish is flown in weekly from the famed Toyosu Fish Market in Tokyo.
Eight Sushi Lounge is a local Midtown haunt, known for its creative flair on sushi creations. Take the Burlesque Roll as an example, with spicy yellowtail topped with escolar, tuna, miso, rice pearl, and serrano peppers. Or the Langoustine Roll, made on pressed cubes of sushi rice with baby lobster, shrimp, and truffle aioli. Be sure to try the Sandos, which are essentially sushi bruschetta. Atlanta loves sushi, a fact not lost on the many talented sushi chefs around town. Atlantans have come to expect fresh ingredients, serious knife skills, and fish imported from Japan.
In addition to sushi, a la carte dishes include yellowtail and salmon belly with crunchy rice, chu-toro and quail egg toast, and spicy fish tostadas, all with the option to add sturgeon caviar. Located in the Home Park neighborhood, Chirori shifted from serving a menu of mainly robatayaki dishes to offering sushi and omakase options mixed with Japanese pub food. Order a variety of a la carte sushi village Atlanta here to create a spread or reserve a seat on Sundays at the sushi bar for a seven-course omakase feast for around $160. Make sure to check out the weekly nigiri omakase specials, too, and sake and soju selections from the bar. After 13 years on Buford Highway, chef Atsushi "Art" Hayakawa relocated his beloved eponymous sushi restaurant to Star Metals on Howell Mill Road.
But for those in the know, it’s been a Smyrna institution for over 30 years. This low-key, casual sushi house dishes out top-quality fish with very generous portions. Order the off-menu cowboy hat — a rice cracker topped with crab salad and a fried scallop. The menu for Sushi Village may have changed since the last user update.
The 15-seat sushi bar at this Michelin-starred Japanese restaurant offers an intimate dining experience catered to each guest. Mujo is reservation only, which includes the petite cocktail bar. Located at the Parkside Shops complex on Roswell Road, Bishoku draws people in nightly for creative takes on sushi rolls, hand rolls (temaki), and a la carte nigiri and sashimi combinations. Try the spicy scallop roll with sriracha sauce, the nega hama hamachi roll with scallions, or the spicy tuna and avocado temaki. Share a plate of shrimp dumplings, octopus carpaccio, or yakitori skewers, too, or make a meal out of the nabeyaki udon hot pot.
