Came back to Banana Leaf after a few years with a big group again. I enjoyed my Chicken Pad See Ew dish, but the service felt a bit slow. I also would not recommend the Ember Smoked Duck dish. My boyfriend got it because it sounded interesting, but I was not a fan at all. It mostly felt like fried rice with some duck, and the smokey flavor wasn't very present in taste. The duck also felt a bit dry. The Chicken Pad See Ew was delicious with a good amount of noodles and chicken! It definitely hit the spot for me. The interior has been well maintained and is still neatly decorated. Good place for a dinner with friends, family, or a date, but just a tad on the expensive side.

Hamachi nigiri
Joyita B.

A nice regular Asian restaurant with good vibes. Lots of parking in the strip and we didn't need to wait to be seated inside. Service was good. We got the following: 1. Yellowtail nigiri - 8/10 very fresh and flavorful 2. Lettuce wraps- 7/10 very delish but extremely oily. 3. Pad see wu - 8/10. Nailed it! 4. Sticky mango rice- 8/10 loved the sticky wild rice instead of regular white. I will revisit.

Bangkok crunch roll and Pui hi roll
Ariel C.

We got takeout so I can't really speak to the ambiance or service, but the food was ready when we got there which was great. It's in a large shopping center, so while there are a lot of parking spots, I had to park pretty far on a Friday night. We got the veggie gyoza and spring rolls to start. Both were good - nothing special but yummy. It's always nice when there are several veggie appetizer options! I got two sushi rolls, Bangkok Crunch and Pui Hi. Both tasted very good and had nice textures. The flavors were great and the size of the rolls was decent for the price. I'd be open to trying other rolls there. We ordered the chicken Thai Fried Rice. My gf really enjoyed it, and it was a very large portion, like several meals' worth. We also ordered tofu Pad See Ew, which I know is basic but it's my favorite. This was nothing like any Pad See Ew I've had before. It wasn't bad but it wasn't what I was expecting. The sauce was salty and garlicky, when it's usually sweet. I know the vegetables included were listed, so that wasn't a surprise, but I've never seen that mixture in this dish before. The tofu was well prepared and there was a good amount of it. It was two dinner servings for me, which is decent for the price.

Me, my wife, and 2 of our friends came to Banana Leaf to check out their Christmas cocktails. We were pretty quick, as we had a reservation for another place right after this. I had never known of this place, until our friends mentioned it. Me and my buddy got the margarita, and the girls got the lychee drink. They came out pretty quick and were honestly pretty strong. It is a Thai restaurant, so they have a full food menu, but we just came for drinks. There is plenty of parking as this is basically in a large Kroger shopping center. It's a little small inside, so just keep that in mind if you have a much larger party. I definitely want to come back in the future to check out their food!

I finally got a chance to visit Banana Leaf and it didn't disappoint. I tried a green curry dish that served at a festival a while back and decided to visit the restaurant while I was in the area. The restaurant is located in a large shopping plaza and plenty of free parking was available. The restaurant was decked out with beautiful Halloween decorations. I sat at the bar and was greeted promptly. To start, I ordered a margarita flavored with Thai chili. It was really good and well balanced. I also ordered the spring rolls and Tom Kha soup. Both were delicious. For my entree, I ordered the green curry with chicken. I really enjoyed the dish. I didn't add any additional spice and it still had a kick to it. I truly enjoyed my lunch here and look forward to returning.

BANANA FRITTER (WITH MATCHA ICE-CREAM)
Ashley C.

I had an excellent experience at Banana Leaf! Parking is shared by many places, so you should be able to find a spot. My friend made a reservation for us, and we were immediately seated. The restaurant was clean and beautifully decorated. our server was so sweet, kind, and patient. We ordered the shrimp dumplings, spring rolls, tofu fried rice, pad see ew, and the banana fritters with matcha ice cream. Everything was exquisite. Our server constantly checked in on us and took our payment table side. We were given a warm goodbye and even took a selfie at their photo booth before we left. This was such a great experience. Highly recommend and I will be back!

Joyrina H.

It was ok. I wish there was more options like seafood option to get with the drunken noodles. I got the shrimp and had to remove the tails which would have been better if it was off.

L-KRA-POW GAI KAI DOW
Allyson G.

I have been wanting to come here for a while, and I'm glad I finally did! I went on a Wednesday afternoon and it was pretty empty. I like the decor because it was really floral and pretty. The service was fast and efficient, and the server was attentive and helped me figure out what meal would work best. The lunch portion of the Krad POW was very good and filling, and I ended up taking some home. The sushi was pretty good also.

Calamari appetizer.
Kim H.

The Ambiance is nice. I went for lunch. The wait staff (one person) was extremely busy, as she had a large party (poor lady) I had the Calamari, a Lychee Martini and Shrimp Pad Thai. It tastes pretty good. I'm a Pad Thai snob being from SF, but I would give it a 3.5 because it was very salty. I added some spice (chilli sauce) which made it a lot better. The Calamari was a small portion imo, but chrisp and tasty. I know it was full of sodium because I had a huge headache the next morning & that's all I ate that day. I hope they didn't have MSG in it but it does cause me to have headaches. Check this place out, it you like Thai

Were visiting Atlanta and staying at the Holiday Inn Express Atlanta North Perimeter Mall and Area. My brother suggested we have Thai food and this restaurant had good ratings in Yelp and was marked with $$. It was an easy drive and we both enjoyed our meals. We had talked about bringing back leftovers but we finished the meal and there weren't any. We'd return here again. @BananaLeafATL @EatBananaLeafATL #RestaurantsinSandySpringsGA #AtlantaEats #buzzybooth

Chicken SATAY
Mona A.

Chicken satay and Chicken Wings were sweet , but tested good . Pad thai tasty and so was Basil fried rice , which was spicy enough for me, both dishes had good portions . Atmosphere was very nice , place clean and Fast service . Busy parking area during the weekend as they is plenty of food places around there .

Small bowl but I scraped up every drop of the sauce! Delicious Squid Salad!
Kim Y.

I went to this place because of Yelp reviews and it didn't disappoint me at all! Friendly staff with fabulous decor of Thailand. I went solo was seated immediately. 15-20 customers were already at tables. There is also an outside patio but I'm enjoying the AC in The South! I bought a squid salad, avocado roll and soft crab tempura roll! All were so delicious and fresh! Everything came out smoothly and I wasn't rushed to leave when I also met a solo customer sitting next to me! We talked for about another hour after we were finished with our dinner!

GAENG KEOW WAN and SHRIMP TEMPURA APPETIZER
Madison D.

Good food however it was nothing too special. They did have interesting dishes, which I have not seen in other restaurants which is a bonus. On the other hand, their beef was extremely chewy in the Gaeng Keow Wan. This dish was supposedly the three spice level, the highest spice level this restaurant has. However, even a person who cannot handle spice at all could eat this with ease, not spicy at all. But the flavours were intriguing and tasty.

Mikata is a fantastic spot for Sushi and Japanese cuisine. While in Atlanta I was craving sushi…read moreand Mikata was walking distance from my hotel so a few friends and I decided to give it a try. Boy are we glad we did! The atmosphere is upscale and modern, with elegant decor and tall ceilings with tons of light. The plating and silverware is also spot on. I ordered a tako nigiri and a Mikata sushi tower with spicy tuna and real crab in it. The presentation was gorgeous and the dishes tasted as good as it looked. I had a virgin lychee martini to go worth the meal and I left very satisfied. I'll definitely be back when visiting Atlanta

I've visited Mikata Sushi twice now, about two months apart, and I have quite a few thoughts! There…read morewere definitely some highlights, but a few things left me underwhelmed. Let's get into it! Yellowtail - 6/10 If you know me, you know yellowtail is MY FISH! I absolutely love yellowtail, and honestly, I enjoy it in just about any presentation. However, something about this one was a little off for me. The cuts were noticeably thicker than what I typically prefer. The flavor was there, but the overall appearance and color of the fish didn't give me the same quality impression I've gotten from other yellowtail experiences. What makes this more interesting is that I ordered it on BOTH visits, and unfortunately, I had the same impression each time. I wanted to love it because yellowtail is easily one of my favorite fish, but it just wasn't giving what I'm used to. Steak Fried Rice - 7/10 WOWWW! This was probably the biggest surprise of the entire experience. This is some of the best fried rice I've had in a WHILEEEE! The flavor profiles were EVERYTHING. I could actually taste the individual ingredients, but somehow everything came together beautifully. You know when a song comes on and every single beat hits exactly where it's supposed to? That's how this fried rice tasted! Now, why the 7/10 instead of higher? THE YUM YUM SAUCE. I honestly feel like it did more harm than good. The sauce had more of a mayonnaise-like taste, and I felt it took away from what was already really good fried rice. I wish I had ordered it without the sauce the first time around. I actually regret not getting it on my first visit, but I'm so happy I finally tried it on my second! Shrimp Tempura - 5/10 This one was pretty forgettable. The shrimp was very crispy, which I appreciated, but the ponzu sauce it came with threw off the overall flavor for me. Something about the combination just didn't quite come together. The flavor wasn't fully there, and while it wasn't necessarily a bad dish, it definitely wasn't something I'd go back specifically to order. Nothing particularly memorable. Margarita Roll - 10/10 YESSSSS! NOW THIS IS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT! As a YELLOWTAIL LOVER, this roll understood the assignment! This is a raw roll, and the fish was SO flavorful. Everything about this roll worked for me. The flavor, the overall experience, just everything! I ordered this on BOTH visits, and both times it delivered. That's how you know it's good when you come back and immediately order the same thing again. Easily my favorite item at Mikata. If I returned, this would absolutely be on my order again. My Spending First Visit: * Margarita Roll * Yellowtail * Total: $50 Second Visit: * Shrimp Tempura * Yellowtail * Steak Fried Rice * Margarita Roll * Total: $80 Service & Overall Experience - 6/10 Now, let's talk about service because this definitely impacted my overall experience. First Visit: I'd honestly give the service a 0/10. My waiter took an extremely long time to bring out my dishes, and my yellowtail was slightly warm by the time it arrived. Second Visit: I sat at the sushi bar, and I believe one of the managers assisted me. The difference was noticeable! Not necessarily because he was a manager, but because he was attentive. You can literally see the food coming out on the sushi bar, and he actually took the time to pay attention and make sure my dishes made it to me. During my first visit, my waiter would see food come out, walk right past it without saying anything, and head back into the kitchen. I noticed that same lack of attentiveness again during my second visit. It wasn't a matter of the restaurant being too busy; it was a matter of someone taking the time to pay attention to their customers and the food coming out. I really appreciated the assistance during my second visit because it made everything move much faster. Final Thoughts Overall, I'd give Mikata a 6/10. The Margarita Roll was a 10/10 experience, and the steak fried rice was a pleasant surprise. However, the yellowtail consistency and service definitely brought down my overall rating. Would I return? Possibly! But I already know exactly what I'm ordering: that Margarita Roll!

So I stopped in and it was actually nobody there. Which wasn't a bad thing necessarily because it…read moremeans that it wasn't crowded. And I'm not sure why it wasn't anybody there. It was actually pretty decent experience honestly. Now there's a lot of shops around here in this building and the surrounding block of buildings. So you can find parking on the street or you can park behind or on the side. It's up to you as long as you don't park on Roswell road. But it's all free for the most part. So you should have no problem finding parking. I came in and was sat down immediately and I appreciated the aesthetics. It was a very clean and decorated environment. Gyoza (steamed) - They came with a four-piece situation and they were really good. The sauce that they came with was very tasty and dumplings themselves were pretty large all things considered. I do wish there were six of them but I understand lol. Katsu roll (chicken) - This one wasn't unusual role to me only because it actually had the protein on the inside and on top of it. Which made it actually pretty good though, because you could just eat the protein with the roll or eat it separately. But it was actually really tasty in the rolls were almost double the circumference and size of a regular rolls. If you look at how big a a typical roll would be. Shrimp crunch - This one was pretty good but it was pretty standard. Nothing really out of pocket with this one but it was decent. Volcano - This one was a pretty nice roll but it was a mess and the only issue I have is actually because it was such a mess, a tasty mess, that the structure wasn't really solid. Solid. A lot of them. You couldn't actually do a lot of grabbing when it came to the roll itself because it would fall apart very easily because there was so much fur on top of it. But the flavor was pretty good but that's my biggest right? Because it was hard to use chopsticks. Overall, this was a pretty decent spot. I don't have any issues with it. They have a couple rolls there that I would actually try again honestly and some appetizers as well on the same page as far as giving another go. But outside of what I mentioned, pretty decent experience.

I was craving Sashimi one night and I have to admit, I ended up at Yuka by accident. All worked out…read moreand looking back now, I should have went and bough a lottery ticket. I'll settle for a great Sashimi/Sushi dinner experience though .... I parked in back at the public parking structure back behind the building. I don't remember how much it was but just pay by phone so you don't get stroked a ticket. It was less than $10 for two hours is all I remember. Just not exactly how much. Walked over and around and skipped one place because there was signage about being dressed appropriately. I probably could have passed but I didn't want to feel like eating in what I envisioned as a stuffy stuck up place. Turning the corner it started raining so I ducked into Yuka. Seated immediately as the place was empty. Nothing like when I left. But the service stayed great even as business picked up. Ordered the following: Sunomono with crab stick, Tiger Crunch Roll and the 4 Kinds Sashimi Set. Capped dinner with a strawberry mochi. Enjoyed dinner - but I'll say I prefer my Sunomono sliced a thinner. They were also out of a several things including the dessert I wanted leaving me to settle for the mochi. But overall, I liked the portion sizes, the cuts and the balance of the roll. They were also out of a few beers I wanted to try but I'm not complaining because with all I had, I left fat and happy!

After researching…read moremany omakase restaurants, I chose Omakase by Yun because my first visit there was truly memorable -- and once again, they exceeded all expectations. The 15-course menu was a masterpiece from start to finish. Each piece felt like art -- stunning presentation followed by incredible flavor. Every bite melted in my mouth, and the balance between the rice, the fish, and their special secret sauce was perfection. One of the highlights was the Kimi Oboro, prepared using a 200-year-old vinegar technique -- simply remarkable. My sister loved every dish, even falling in love with the pickled ginger! The service was outstanding as well -- two servers took care of us throughout the evening, always greeting us with genuine smiles and impeccable manners. This was probably the best omakase experience I've ever had -- and I've had over a hundred. I'm so glad my sister's first omakase turned into an unforgettable memory. Huge thanks to everyone who served us last night. Highly recommend this place to both first-timers and seasoned sushi lovers alike!

Like a lot of other omakase places the restaurant was a little hard to find since it's pretty much just a door with a small sign and a couple of windows. The service there was phenomenal and I loved the variety for dishes! We had the 17 course meal for $242/person after taxes and tip, which was a little expensive but seemed fair for Atlanta. We started with some apps and my favorite was the oysters. Then most of the courses were various nigiri and ofc my favorites were the fatty tuna and eel. I also really liked the uni even though I usually don't! The presentation for everything was gorgeous and some of the sushi was pretty unique with the flavor pairings. Dinner ended with a small sorbet as dessert and my mom and I were both stuffed. I'll definitely be back for a special occasion :)

Firstly, I want to share that I have celiac disease--a serious medical gluten allergy--as well as a…read moredairy allergy. Because of this, dining out, especially at a buffet, always felt nearly impossible to me. Nori Nori completely changed that perception. My first interaction with the restaurant was a phone call to ask whether they offered tamari. The hostess was incredibly courteous and immediately reassured me that they did. When I arrived, I was warmly escorted to my table, and the Chef/Owner--who I believe held both roles--personally came over to guide me through the menu items I should avoid. She also explained that many dishes could be prepared gluten-free and dairy-free so I could enjoy them safely. That level of care and attentiveness was both comforting and genuinely touching. Now, onto the food... They offered veggie and salmon rolls, refreshing cold salads, and hot dishes such as Oriental Fish, steamed snow crab legs, seasoned scallops, and some of the fluffiest white rice I've had in quite some time. At one point, I had a question about a particular dish, and before I could even worry, the Chef was right there to help. She kindly steered me toward another wonderfully fragrant option that was safer for me to enjoy. Her attentiveness felt incredibly sincere--like someone truly invested in making sure I had both a safe and memorable dining experience. That small gesture meant more to me than I can fully express. Living with dietary restrictions means that something as routine as choosing a meal can be emotionally exhausting and potentially dangerous without constant vigilance. To make the experience even more thoughtful, the restaurant also provided plastic gloves so I wouldn't need to touch shared tongs or surfaces. Since I can react to contact with gluten-contaminated surfaces, this extra precaution made me feel genuinely cared for. And finally, dessert: sliced honeydew, cantaloupe, and CHERRY JELLO! It was the perfect ending to such a thoughtful, safe, and genuinely delicious dining experience. I can't wait to return again!

Sit at the Temaki bar for an immersive experience with the sushi chef preparing it fresh right in front of you. If you have more time, visit their cafe (connected inside) and their cute gift shop with cute Japanese tableware and other little trinkets.

I don't usually waste time writing reviews but This was the most wild experience I've ever had for…read morea quick lunch. For starters I was asked "how are you?" When I entered to which I replied "fine, thanks" and the person looked me right in the eye and said "how are you?" With just the slightest hint of annoyance so I said "fine, thanks" again. I guess they didn't hear me over the deafening silence the first time. Upon being seated a server stopped by to inform me about the laptop policy because I had a tablet with me in a bag. (Which I had not opened) I could tell I was in for something and there would be more rules and my performance would be graded. Considering every other person was glued to a phone it did seem to be some sort of petty bullying even if it didn't get any sort of response out of me. I guess you can have technology with you provided it is ...small. Okay fine. I'll just stare at my phone like everyone else. While the rolls were good and the presentation above average, I was met with friction at every point of the experience. From the lack of a basic tea to the unnecessarily XRTRA Nori protectors which forced me to rebuild every hand roll everything demanded effort or concession. And then cost $50. I experienced less attitude in a Michelin star restaurant. God, I need a nap.
