    Excellent sushi with fresh, high-quality ingredients and beautiful presentation. The staff was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was clean and welcoming. I'll definitely be coming back for another meal.

    I keep going back and forth between a 3 and a 4 for this restaurant, a 3.5 option here would be ideal. While the food was overall a big hit, I am completely disgusted with the bathrooms here. I am assuming there are many patrons that come whose stomachs cannot handle raw fish, and there's just simply not enough time to clean the stalls. Additionally, I am not sure if my friends and I showed up on a day that it was severely understaffed, but the pacing of the meal was completely off. While our waiter was super nice and attentive, our food showed up way out of sync. I finished both of the rolls I ordered before anyone else's food even showed up. In before anyone says I could have waited for everyone else's food, I am not going to have raw sushi sitting out baking under the little outdoor heater for 20-30 minutes. On top of that everyone was completely finished with their plates and had to ask about our friend's last roll that hadn't come yet. And when she said, if it's not ready, we can just cancel the order and move on to dessert, the Manhattan roll materialized almost immediately, as if it had been ready for some time and was just waiting to be brought to the table. In terms of the food, everything was really good except the King Roll. We ordered it expecting it to be some type of spider roll, and it just did not have the signature crunch we were looking for. It was so bad, my friend who ordered it didn't finish it and didn't even want to bring it home. Overall, the experience was not worth what I paid for. While I cherish the memories, Eight will stay forever in my past.

    The food was excellent and deserves 5 stars, but when factoring the price tag, the overall experience is reduced to 4 stars. In summary, great food, yet overpriced. We ordered: Exceptional (A+): Tuna Crisps Excellent/Very Good (A/A-): A5 Wagyu Sando, The Monroe Tuna (crispy rice), Burlesque Roll, Bluefin Maguro (nigiri), Seared Scallops Good (B+/B): Pork Ramen OK (B-/C+/C): Yuzu Cheesecake, Orange is the New Black (salmon) So most dishes we sampled were excellent. Their tuna crisps are to die for. But their acclaimed and award-winning pork ramen was merely decent. Before tipping, we paid $215 for a two-person meal (no alcohol, only water, 8 small dishes, and 1 dessert). If they had charged us at least 20% less, this would have been a 5-star meal.

    We love Eight Sushi! The food is always fresh and tastes great. Our kids love the chicken teriyaki entree and we usually opt for the chef's selection of sashimi. The cocktails are unique and also tastes great. Service has always been top tier when we go. The ambiance is upscale/casual. Definitely great for date night. We love sitting on the outdoor patio that was newly renovated recently.

    My friends and I were excited to try this place! We came in the middle of the week for dinner so we hoped for the best in terms of not making reservations. I had trouble finding the place so my friends were waiting for me before they could seat the whole party. In the meantime, they enjoyed the full bar and had a few gin cocktails. I joined the ban wagon and was not disappointed. In terms of drinks, we shared the monroe tuna, madai carpaccio, langoustine roll, casanova roll, and explosion roll. Carpaccio was delicious but always on the small side. To be honest, I do not recall which roll is which at this point but I do know we were underwelmed by the pan fried rice dish having had enjoyed it so much at another restaurant. The other rolls were more so okay. Overall, a solid spot but not some place that would be worth coming again especially as it is very far from me. Prices are especially steep for me to not be wowed. Staff were nice and the ambiance was romantic and intimate.

    4.5/5. First visit & very impressed This was my first time dining at Eight Sushi Lounge and I was genuinely impressed. The environment, innovation, and quality all stand out in a big way. Service lagged a bit, and I do think truffle is slightly overplayed on a few dishes + across the menu, but overall the experience was fantastic - I'll definitely be back! There's also a separate moody lounge to the left when you walk in, perfect for cocktails before or after dinner. Loved that touch. Standouts * Kampachi Serrano - Super fresh and unique. Baby yellowtail with cilantro and a ponzu slushy... such a fun, bright bite & idea * Tuna Crisp - A must. Slivers of tuna on a crisp with just the right amount of truffle oil... and I'm usually not a truffle girl * Eggs Benedict - Slide it down the hatch for an instant punch of flavor. Absolutely loved this one * Orange Is the New Black - Simple salmon in cilantro oil. Clean, fresh, fantastic * Rolls & Nigiri Tasting - No clue everything I tried because it was a large tasting, but everything was excellent. The walu nigiri was my favorite. * Miso Seabass - Always a home run, but I appreciate that it actually comes with sides (veggies + grilled rice patty) instead of being served solo like other sushi spots for the same ~$40 price * Miso Steak - Tender, flavorful The "Still Good" List * Monroe Tuna - Their take on crispy rice with spicy tuna. Delicious, but the truffle wasn't necessary; I would've preferred to taste more of the tuna. I still prefer Umi or Houston's version. * Green Bean Fries - Tempura green beans, fun to share. I do wish the menu offered healthier/lighter options for a sharable snack mid meal... like charred shishito peppers, eggplant or Japanese sweet potatoes, or even pickles veggie board * Gyoza - Solid. * Chicken Teriyaki - Juicy and flavorful, good for non-sushi eaters. Overall, Eight Sushi Lounge brings creativity, freshness, and a great vibe! I'll absolutely be back.

    I recently went to 8 Sushi for a birthday dinner with a party of 9, and I was honestly impressed from start to finish. Even with a last-minute reservation, the staff was extremely accommodating and made sure everything flowed smoothly for our group. One of the standout features is the hidden speakeasy tucked behind the double gray doors; such a beautiful, elegant space. The ambiance alone is worth the visit, and the drinks were just as impressive, crafted perfectly and definitely memorable. As for the food... absolutely incredible. I had the Casanova roll, the Linguinstuno roll, and the miso steak, and every single dish was flavorful and well-executed. I also tried the sea bass, and it was hands down one of the best things I tasted that night. Overall, if you're looking for a nice, upscale dining experience with great service, amazing food, and top-tier drinks, 8 Sushi is definitely the place to go.

    Very nice establishment, the ambiance gives lounge vibes, the service is pretty good, they have a QR code that populates the menu and they have multiple servers coming around asking for your order or if you need any assistance. The sushi was pretty good, I enjoyed my Casanova roll.

    We had reservations and I was lowkey stressed about parking because we were getting close to the cutoff time, but there was plenty of parking which immediately saved my mood. We even got there a little early and the host suggested we check out the speakeasy literally right inside such a fun little moment. We were only there for a bit before getting called to our table, and the whole vibe inside is super upscale, dim-lit, and honestly very romantic without trying too hard. Our server was on it the entire time checking in just enough without being annoying (which is rare). We ordered a bunch of sushi and everything was fresh, delicious, and felt super intentional. Nothing felt rushed or half-done you can tell they actually care about what they're putting out. And the best part? It was all super reasonably priced, which kind of shocked me for the vibe. I would 100% come back. Like... already planning it.

    Came to Eight Sushi to have a work dinner with some colleagues. We made a reservation for 6PM on a Wednesday and they were super flexible with our group arriving at different times which was great. I thought the restaurant was the perfect to volume to maintain conversation. I ordered the mocktail version of their lychee martini and it was a good! To eat, we only ordered a bunch of different food. Our group loved the tuna crisp but for me it was too truffle forward. The other apps like the spicy shrimp and vegetable tempura were all great and each and everyone of the rolls was unique in a different way but the best had to be sashimi/nagiri. Each piece of fish was so fresh and delicious and worth the price!! We had to get some dessert as well and we got one of everything. Overall, a delightful menu and experience and grateful for the staff!

    Lovely sushi spot in ATL! There are few sushi spots that we enjoy, but Eight sushi consistently delivers. It's got a nice ambience - inside is dimly lit with stylish tables (perfect for date night) and outside are a few tables to enjoy the breeze (or the heat if it's cold out). The fish is fresh and the rolls are creative, it's far from authentic but still tasty. Our favorites are the tuna crisp (great flavor, with a nice snap), burlesque roll (nice crispy bits), and explosion roll. The kampachi serrano and the shrimp saku saku were ok, nothing special. Their dessert menu is variable - once we went they had a nice Japanese cheesecake with matcha. Another time, they had only American desserts. Solid spot!

    So if you're in the Howell Mill area and one of some sushi, this will be a pretty decent spot to try out. It's on the corner if you go around the block, so it's not like on the front facing part of the street, but it's there! There's street parking there, or you have to find your own for the most part. But street parking is not that expensive so it should be fine! You walk in and you're greeted, everybody was pretty cool last time I was there. Last time I was there. I chose to sit at the bar, and it worked out okay on my side. Bartender is really cool and getting me some good customer service. Has some nice conversation as well! Gyoza - they were good and pan fried to perfection. They were not overly big but had a good flavor. Vegetable spring rolls - they came out mad hot and fresh and had a great fried crunch. The sweet and sour sauce it came with took it to another level as far as sweet and savory goes. Shinobi roll - the roll came out with a really good presentation. Came out with 8 rolls and they had a great flavor. Casanova roll - a really great balance of sweet and spicy. The peppers on top were an extra (good) pop to the savory flavor. Good spicy and would for sure order again. Part of me felt like for the prices that they're charging. They kind of could give bigger portions, but I feel like that's probably by design because they want you to keep ordering. But if nothing else at least the taste was good, so I have to take that into consideration! Overall I would probably go back again. It is a nice spot and it actually gives an air of date spot vibes if you wanted to do something because it's somewhat intimate. Not like dark candle light, but maybe. But either way it goes. You don't have to have solely a date night to go here, the food's good on his own regardless.

    Leah M.

    This is the spot. We live for a good date night here at eight. Get a reso, and remind yourself this is ATL and not New York. It totally has a crowded and NY vibe imo. Ooo!! Love the tuna crisp, rice to meet you nigiri, langostine app and Casanova roll.

    Ask the Community - Eight Sushi Lounge

    Do you have a live hibachi show?

    No, this is an upscale sushi restaurant There's a bar and outdoor seating.

    Do you guys have reservations?

    Hi Karen ! Yes, they definitely do have reservations. I would recommend setting a reservation before visiting.

    Are toddlers welcome?

    It's definitely rowdy enough for toddlers.

    Hello? I have been calling all day, someone picks up says something illegible then no other words can be exchanged. Are you closed down or open for service? Are reservations required/suggested or can a part of three walk in and be seated fast?

    Please call 404-796-8888

    Best places to park nearby?

    Valet parking structure adjacent, just to the East. There probably won't be any street parking available.

    What time is happy hour? From out of town--should I make reservations beforehand?

    Definitely make reservations, they seem to be in high demand. Great food and excellent service. I would call about happy hour.

    Which rolls are dairy free or can be made dairy free?

    Not sure but perhaps you can ask the rolls made without sauce or get nigiris. They harp themselves on the sushi experience with their sauces.. but it's your choice in the end!

    Do you have any gluten free sushi rolls?

    yes

There could be reserved seating but mostly looked like first come, first served. We eventually got seats from gentlemen who were willing to get up. But it's a dance party so you won't be seated long. The rooftop bar was extremely busy so we got drinks in the lobby. The service on the rooftop and lobby bar was over extended. They needed more staff to support the crowd. Eventually we ordered food as it seemed more staff came in to help. We shared chicken wings and the flat bread pizza. The wings were a good size and come with potatoes. More like breakfast potatoes, not fries. They were rather salty and not very good. The flat bread pizza was tasty. Their menu included other starters, sandwiches, salads and desserts. We had cocktails - old fashioned, vodka and cranberry, and a Moscow mule. Good size and tasty. Overall, the band - The DJ Wright Band and DJ Eclazz were why we came! Definitely check this spot out.
