Had a great experience at Jak. It's a part of the 4 restaurant line across from the Assi plaza on Old Peachtree, next to Gu Thai. The host/server was very friendly and quick and made sure everything was well with us. She knew a lot about all the different drinks and made good recommendations. We went for lunch, which was 12 pieces for $58 per person. It ended with the hand roll as the last, 13th piece. Considering the price, taste and quality were pretty good. It was the perfect amount for me, but with each piece being on the smaller end, it may not be as filling for others. The chef was pretty quick with making each of the pieces. We were the only ones there, which could also be why everything moved so quickly. He explained every piece with detail. He wasn't the talkative type but we weren't either so didn't mind that. If you want a budget friendly omakase experience, this is the perfect place to go! If you want more of an interactive experience with the chef, you may prefer other places, but if you like the quiet, efficient atmosphere, this is also the right place. read more

A friend and I came here for a quick lunch since we were craving sushi and didn't want to drive all the way into the city during our lunch break. The price was decent, and at $78 for a 15-course omakase, my expectations honestly weren't very high based on previous experiences at other JAK restaurants. We had reservations and were seated immediately upon arrival, which was a great start. I understand that lunch service operates on a time slot and they need to keep things moving, but having one chef serving eight people felt like a bit much. The entire experience felt rushed from start to finish. Everything came out at a very fast pace, and we were in and out in less than 45 minutes. As for the sushi, unfortunately, it just didn't hit the mark. The rice on several of the nigiri pieces was poorly formed and kept falling apart. The fish didn't taste particularly fresh, and some pieces had a noticeably fishy flavor. The chef also used heavy seasoning on almost every piece, which felt like an attempt to mask the quality of the fish rather than enhance it. I wanted to like this place and gave it a fair shot, but overall, the experience fell short. While the service was efficient, the rushed atmosphere and lackluster sushi made it difficult to enjoy. Unfortunately, I probably won't be returning. read more

I went to Jak Omakase with two friends for the $58 | 12-Course Daimyo Lunch (60 mins). We arrived a bit early at 11:50 AM, were seated right at 12:00 PM, and were completely finished and paid by 12:28 PM. While it was technically 12 courses, everything moved very quickly. Each piece came out one after another with little pause in between, which made the experience feel more like a tasting sprint than a traditional omakase journey. If you're looking for a relaxed, lingering lunch where you can savor each course, this may feel rushed--but if efficiency is what you want, this definitely delivers. The chef was kind, polite, and professional, with a calm presence behind the counter. He explained each piece clearly and confidently, though the interaction was fairly minimal. There wasn't much storytelling or conversation, which may be due to the pace or the time slot. We were the only three customers in the restaurant, so the atmosphere was extremely quiet. No music was playing, and with no other diners, it felt almost library-like. Some people might appreciate the peaceful, distraction-free setting, but it did feel a bit stark and serious. The fish itself was fresh and well-prepared, with clean flavors and nice variety across the courses. Portion sizes were appropriate for lunch, though because of how fast everything came out, the meal felt lighter than expected for 12 courses. Overall, Jak Omakase offers a straightforward, no-frills omakase lunch that's efficient, intimate, and focused purely on the food. I'd recommend it if you're short on time or want a quiet, minimalist experience. If you're hoping for a more immersive, paced, or interactive omakase, this might not fully hit the mark. read more

My friend and I made a reservation for dinner here at 7pm. There are 10 seats total. The whole experience took about an hour and a half for $78 15 course omakase. I'm so sure I only received 14 courses because I thought I took a photo of each piece but maybe I forgot one. Some pieces had too much wasabi in my opinion but each piece tasted fresh and good quality but didn't really like wow me as much as I'd expect. I also got a sunset peach cocktail. Most of the cocktails are on the sweeter side. Overall the service and the chef were very nice and attentive. read more

It was my 1st time doing omakase. I went with a friend and it was such an amazing experience for my very 1st time. The service was on point. The ambiance was very cool. I loved how the sushi came out one dish at a time. It was a very intimate and very cool setting. I couldn't remember all the omakase names but we did the Shogun Omakase. I will definitely be back with some other friends to experience this place. read more

Absolutely DIVINE! My dad made reservations for dinner a couple weeks ago to celebrate my sister's birthday. My cousin, sister, and I enjoyed it very much! I tried to take a pic of all the courses but got distracted a couple times and missed some. Most of the pictures don't do the dishes justice. The only ones I did not love were the ones with the salmon roe, but that's just a personal texture preference thing. The chef was great and the pricing is definitely affordable if you've been wanting an omakase experience that's wonderful but also won't break the bank this is a must try! read more

Incredible service and overall dining experience with great ambiance. The ikura is some of the best I've ever had, slightly sweet, salty, and not briny at all. The waygu was buttery and decadent. The fatty tuna melted in my mouth. I also loved the cute cat shaped ice. read more

I went to Jak Omakase for my 30th birthday. What an experience! The quality of the fishes were absolutely amazing. Each piece was made with care by the chef. It was amazing just watching him work. I did the Emperor course which consisted of 19 pieces. Do it! The extra 4 pieces I got were amazing! I think it was worth the price! The rest of the staff were amazing as well, very attentive. They made sure to check on us often throughout our meal. The vibe was relaxing, and I couldn't ask for a better birthday dinner. They also gave me a slice of strawberry cheesecake since it was my birthday. What a great meal, and I can't wait to go back! read more

Pretty good for cost ($58 for 12-piece lunch) but obviously not as impressive as the more expensive places. Quality/freshness was probably an 8/10, setting 9/10 (relaxing environment), service 8/10 (we felt rushed... omakase courses are generally timed to be plated after you finish the prior course, but the chef doubled up a couple lol). I'd say the main things that could be improved are creativity (super basic offerings, seems like menu doesn't change much but idk if I'm right about that) and using less wasabi for some of the nigiri. Overall, if you're on a budget, worth checking out. read more

Jak Omakase - Sushi Bars Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

Jak Omakase may be far outside the city, but let me tell you--it's well worth the drive. Omakase is meant to be an intimate, cozy experience, and Jak far exceeded my expectations. With only 15 seats, it feels exclusive in the best way. I highly recommend going for the premium experience--yes, it's a bit pricey, but every bite justifies the cost. And don't worry about leaving hungry; each dish is packed with flavor, rich yet delicate, leaving you satisfied but never uncomfortably full. What made it even more special was chatting with the chef, learning about his craft, and watching him prepare each course with such precision and passion. 10/10--will definitely be back. read more

Been to this place multiple times, any time I'm craving quality sushi without breaking the bank too much this place is my number one. The pricing reflects the quality for sure. The chef is very kind. The atmosphere isn't intimidating at all and every bite is favorable. If you're new to sushi or want to try raw fish outside of your comfort zone this place is definitely the place to do it. Great place to eat at on your night out with your significant other or even by yourself. Every piece is at the right temperature, quality, fatty fish melts in your mouth(pause). Give this place a try read more

Came in on a quiet Sunday needing a pick me up after having a rough day! I've always wanted to try an omakase so I found one on a whim and I couldn't have been more pleased. When I first arrived, a large party was leaving before and straggling behind so the host asked if I could wait in my car until they got the bar reset. She gave me a call maybe 5-10 minutes later and I was seated immediately. For my reservation it was only 3 of us, a couple and myself. Dining alone I was nervous it may be awkward but the chef made me feel very welcome and I didn't miss any company! In fact, 9pm on Sunday's may be my go to reservation window for her. The drinks are top tier and the selection of fresh Nigiri + Handrolls was more than enough for me to leave satisfied although I did order an extra Waygu piece because I was truly that impressed. Drinks: 1. Ichigo Kisu 10/10: so refreshing and not too sweet! Only critique was the herbal garnish was a bit wilted but flavor was not affected 2. Tokyo Mule 9/10: love the ice presentation and extremely refreshing but I did feel like the ice may have affected the amount of actual liquid in the cup/amount of drink I cannot remember every piece we tried but some of the standout for me was the squid, fatty toro, Waygu, and scallop. I wish Jak was closer (almost 55 minute drive from me) but the service, energy, and food is absolutely worth visiting! I will be back again soon for another solo date. Thank you Jak for a great first omakase experience. read more

Jak Omakase is a great experience, and the price makes it sooooo worth it! Parking is a little confusing. The parking directly in front of the building gets filled very quickly, but there is a long stretch of spots on the left of the building in front of the apartment available to the retail area! The restaurant itself does not have a big sign quite yet, but it is directly next to Gu Thai. Inside, it goes for a very calm vibe. The lights are pretty dim, and they play a nice EDM playlist that my friends really enjoyed. The service was excellent. They were on top of giving us water, taking our order, and even gave us the playlist for the music. I think the only downside is that some of the menu is hard to read because of the small font, and it's dark inside. Our chef was Chef Joe, and he was excellent. He served all of the fish, and all of it was delicious. We had such a fun time, and I really liked that if the 15 courses wasn't enough, you could still order more. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for an affordable but delicious omakase experience. read more

Jak Omakase is pretty good spot to go to for a relatively affordable omakase experience. For a 12-course lunch omakase, it's $58...which is a great deal however, it definitely is not enough to fill you up. Nigiris: Yellowtail/ hamachi Sun scallop -amazing Seared squid Sea bream Japanese striped bass Botan Ebi - amazing Striped Jack - good New Zealand King Salmon Salmon Roe Akami- Blue Fin Tuna Otoro Fresh water eel Drinks and dessert are not included. Service is great. The sushi chef didn't talk or interact with us much, but it was fine. IMO, their sister pop up, 99 Omakase, off of Jimmy Carter is a better deal with ayce and aycd. Overall, Jak Omakase is pretty good and worth checking out. read more

You don't find much omakase places in Georgia with that good of a price tag. I think you get what you paid for, and it wasn't super expensive compared to other omakase places. I've had much better in New York, but this place was just okay for me. Its concept is also a not so shared space with different restaurant right next door. read more

Jak Omakase - Scallop with uni - Sushi Bars Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

Came here on a Sunday afternoon bc I was craving sushi. There was a family of four who had already started their meal, and a party of 2 next to me who started with me. I did the Shogun omakase. All the fish was fresh and prepared nicely. The mini rice bowl with salmon roe was my favorite. I would say this wasn't special, but it was a nicely priced casual omakase. read more

Was recently here with family Service is very good. Staff is attentive and friendly Alcohol was good. Got a few of the "Highball" drinks We got the upgraded dinner omakase. Food was decent. Good experience to trial an omakase place. If you have been to other omakases however, you may be a bit disappointed My major disappointment is that the sashimi is pre-cut and fully visible from where you are sitting. As such, it does not scream "fresh". I did not enjoy having the sashimi for the full course already visible on a plate even before the dinner had started The sauces are all very similar if not the same. I could see that the chef was reaching for the same sauce from where I was sitting Overall a decent experience. Not sure if we will be coming back however read more

Of all the omakase's I've been to, the portions here are atrociously small. The food doesn't have the quality of a true omakase experience and the rice isn't the quality it should be at. Money is better spent next door at Gu Thai. The speakers and music doesn't match the vibe either. Service is slow and there is a lack of depth that needs to be addressed. They are new but have a long way to go if they want to survive. I don't see myself ever coming back here and there are many other better places around. read more

You really can't beat the price for delicious omakase! I will say, there is very little communication between the guests and the staff or chef. We were supposed to have 15 courses but ended up with 14 with no explanation as to why one was left out, but we were still charged the same price. My family and I did go during opening week so I believe it was jitters and everyone was still finding their flow. I'll have to go back another time to see if communication has improved. Food: - The food was excellent though! I didn't have any complaints. And you really can't beat the price! Service: - The staff were friendly and attentive. Ambiance: - It's an intimate, reservations-only omakase spot with limited seating. read more

The chef was super sweet! And they are very attentive with filling your water and getting whatever drink or add ons you'd like added. The only thing was I told the chef I didn't want wasabi at all and he accidentally put it in one of the pieces without replacing it but besides that everything was delicious read more

The food was good overall, but we took pictures of each course and wrote what they were and we only got 14 courses (one of them was a fried shrimp head, which was good but felt more like an extra from discard rather than a course). I suppose the atmosphere was intimidate and everyone was quite nice. There was very little interaction with the chef, other than him announcing what each item is and placing the food on our plates, which kinda sucked because I really didn't like how much wasabi he would put in each piece and I was too far on the edge of the table to tell him casually. I can handle spice but the wasabi would sometimes over power the flavor of the actual fish, and I would like to pay to taste the flavors of the item not wasabi. The overall experience was nice, but I cannot foresee myself coming back here if they're going to combine multiple things in 1 course and then expect us to know that it counts for 2, and then serve a shrimp head as its own course. read more

At our reservation time, we waited for the dining area (seats ~15 people) to be prepped, before everyone came in and took their seats. The omakase options were 12 pieces for $58 (lunch) or 15 pieces for $78 (dinner), and we were allowed to do the dinner menu at 2:30 PM. We went with dinner option since the 3 extra pieces were blue crab, A5 Wagyu, and freshwater eel and for just $20 extra, it's all well worth the price. The restaurant itself had all the ambiance of a traditional Japanese omakase restaurant where it was intimate and refined. We had just one server who was highly attentive to our needs, keeping a vigilant eye out for water/drink refills and the chefs always made sure we had enough ginger. The sushi was all delicious and tender, my favorites included sea bream, fatty tuna, scallop, and the obvious dinner items. Additionally, if there was something you really like you can order it individually off the menu I highly recommend this place as the quality at the price point cannot be beat especially around the Atlanta area. read more

Super delicious, every piece the fish quality was great and fresh. Huge cuts too on the nigiri. Great service, good price.

I dined here on Christmas Eve. I was thrilled to find out an omakase experience less than $100 finally made its way to GA. First, we were sat in the corner so we couldn't see the full menu of what we were receiving. They only had the full dinner menu without the daily omakase menu. There were no hand towels or anything to wipe with which is very common in a sushi eating experience. The biggest issue was the rice. It was undercooked and all the guests were aware of this. The couple next to us addressed this after the first piece yet nothing was done nor was there an apology. So we all endured several pieces after with undercooked/uncooked rice. Lastly. We were supposed to get uni, and the girl next to us yet again asked about it. The chef said it went bad or something but did not sub the 15th piece for anything else. There was hardly any communication or interaction with the sushi chef that night. Half of the pieces were also extremely saucy/salty, making it hard to focus on the fish profile itself. The place has potential and a good price point for the experience but it was not enjoyable at all. Couldn't match up to what we're eating with a paper menu either. Rice is half the component, and it sounds like a lot of my friends recently have experienced the same thing - it either being too mushy or undercooked. read more

I'm was searching for an inside experience near my job and found this place. You will need to make reservations in advance. I went for lunch and was the only attendant there. Hospitality was amazing but the cuisine was incredible!!!!! I got the 15 courses and it was dangerously delicious!!! This is my got to lunch spot from now. They also have another restaurant upstairs that does hand roll omakase which is on my list to try as well. If it's anything like this place then I'm in!! read more

Fantastic! My first time for Omakase. The rice was so good and flavorful. The fish was fresh and I got to try lots of new things! It was so cool to see the chef prepare the nigiri in front of us. The hostess was very friendly and the customer service was great. Well worth the price and we will definitely come back! read more

They call themselves omakase, but they have no idea what that means. They smear so much of that nasty wasabi paste on every single nigiri. It's either because they don't have a good quality ingredient and trying to mask it or they need to take the time to learn the meaning of omakase before labeling their restaurant omakase. read more

It's that good. Believe the hype. We opted for the larger Omakase at lunch and the additions were Uni Wagyu and Toro.

It's a must try! Seriously, you get the best quality, best price, and best service. A great spot for date night or girls date. This was our second time coming to Jak's and we had an even better experience than the first. Joe and Nacho are simply amazing! And of course we can't forget our girl Ana. Will definitely be back! read more

My first Omakase experience on a Saturday night. Great ambiance with about 12-15 seats in the entire restaurant. Amazing service by the chefs and the hostesses. The price for the standard was about $80 but we upgraded to an 18 course. Ordered a sparkling sake and a hot sake, both were amazing choices and recommendations. Every piece of fish felt so buttery and was full of flavor. To be honest almost every piece melted on my tongue. The Toro, Eel, and Uni were my personal favorites. The A5 Wagyu and the Hand-rolls were also of such high quality. read more

Not worth in my opinion. Got the Shogun (15pc) course for $78. Tiny portions (i know its piece by piece but the cuts are tiny), no engagement from the chefs, they also werent very knowledgeable, nothing special. good sake tho read more
