A late-night sushi run turned into a new favorite! Kinjo at The Interlock has such a sexy, sultry ambiance....perfect for a date night or a chic late-night bite. The tuna rolls were flavorful and beautifully done, and the service was genuinely kind and friendly. I went in on a whim and left thinking, "I'll absolutely make the drive for this again." Definitely a spot worth adding to the rotation! read more

Kinjo Room was a great birthday dinner. The food was consistently strong, the drinks were excellent, and the service made the night feel special without being over the top. We started with the Harajuku Girl cocktail, which was excellent. For food, the salmon avocado balls and lobster box were the standouts. The avocado balls had a little kick, and both dishes were equally good. We also tried the A5 Wagyu beef roll. It was good, but not quite on the same level as the first two. The Chef's Choice Nigiri Deluxe was another highlight. Every piece was delicious and incredibly tender -- the fish really melted in my mouth. We also had a bottle of Hana Saku Sakura Junmai Ginjo, which was light, refreshing, and easy to drink. The service was a big part of the experience. They brought out a birthday shot at the end, and it was excellent. They also gave one to my partner, which was a really thoughtful touch and made the night feel more celebratory. Overall, this was a strong experience from start to finish. I'd absolutely order the salmon avocado balls, lobster box, and nigiri again. read more

Good: beautiful interior, nice vibes, nice plating, extensive Japanese whisky menu, decent sake list. Would definitely recommend for light bites and drinks after work or on a date. The meh: "signature" nigiri and sashimi (I guess I prefer my sushi to stand on its own without drizzles of this or that) Bad: slim front of house staff. Visited on a weeknight and saw one table seat themselves after waiting a while and several other parties wait a long time to be greeted. Non seafood items were veggies and wagyu, didn't notice any poultry on the menu. read more

10/10!!! I love sushi but this has to be the best sushi I've ever had in Atlanta. The service started out questionable as we were at the front for a while with reservations but they only had 2 people working on a Sunday and they were SO sweet. The hot sake that isn't pictured is probably the best hot sake I've had in a while. The lychee martini was STRONG but tasty. The miso soup was delicious as well. I loved the ambiance of this place, the lighting is very moody and just a vibe. It reminds me of a small speakeasy but with excellent food options. I will definitely be back with the girls. read more

Kinjo Room - Lobster Tempura Special Roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Low lit, sultry, absolutely bespoke. The walls are lined with sake bottles and these gorgeous colored glass light fixtures set the mood. My girls and I had our monthly sushi date here, and it was a crowd favorite. We are OBSESSED with the avocado balls. The current sake flight is also fantastic, from start to finish. Our server was actually very knowledgeable about the sake list, which really added to the tasting. And this time I went with the lobster box roll. It was tasty, but I'm already looking forward to switching things up and exploring more of the menu next visit. If you're into a sophisticated vibe with seriously good sushi, this is a solid spot. read more

Second time here but first time having food. It was a modern twist on traditional dining. Dimly lit and relatively low volume is perf for date night and esp there are more bars around for after dinner night cap. Miso cod was amazing- sushi was fresh and the baked scallops were my fav. Got the soft shell crab roll and spicy rum bento style rolls also (not pictured) but not impressed. Service was attentive and drinks were yummy. read more

Went on a Sunday right when they opened and it was completely peaceful and quiet. It's super dark and moody so perfect for date night. We sampled numerous dishes and had great customer service from the waitresses. The food was great and the king salmon was delicious. Next time I'll come back and try a few of the cocktails! read more

Excellent experience here. service was Timely and on point along with being very friendly. The ambiance is sexy and dark. I ordered an old fashioned which left much to be desired for $22. It was smoked and had flavor but lacked with the whiskey (I'm a lightweight). The hamachi was spicy yet flavorful. My fave fish was the appetizer - Spicy tuna avocado balls. They were incredible albeit very expensive ($8) each for 2 balls. I would have loved this as a roll. The spicy yellowtail roll was good. I found prices to be reasonable. We also had the wagyu roll - I tried a bit...it was tasty but not my speed (not a beef eater so no fault of theirs). 2 rolls, 2 apps, 1 mocktail and a drink were $140 so this place is a little more high end in price. Overall great experience. read more

10/10 experience, food, drinks and ambiance. I booked this place for my husband's birthday dinner. I wanted something intimate that offers crafted drinks and even better food. My husband was sooooo happy with this selection and all the great options they had. Snow crab miso, baked lobster tempura, a5 wagyu, and boxed sushi. Drinks were phenomenal as well. Needless to say, we ate our moneys worth and no crumbs were left behind, quite literally. Will def be back! Thank you for an amazing experience. read more

My first time at Kinjo room for a date was very pleasant! The interior is dark and moody and the decor is beautifully done, perfect date night vibes. We got the shrimp tempura special roll, spicy tuna roll, and spicy yellowtail roll. They were delicious, I loved the shrimp tempura and yellowtail the most! I also had a sakura cocktail that was supposed to come with a cotton candy cloud, but unfortunately they did not have the cotton candy at the time which was slightly disappointing. Other than that, the drink was very sweet and yummy, and came with decorative flowers and a sugar rim. There were so many delicious cocktail options, I might go back just to try them all! The service was slightly slow, but our server seemed to be helping multiple different tables so it was understandable. I would definitely come back again, and hopefully they will have the cotton candy cloud next time :) read more

I went here for girls night out a few days ago and I'll 100% be back with my husband for an intimate date night. We sat at the bar - it has by far more light than any of the table seating - so ig you have any issues with sight, keep that in mind. It a beautiful and aesthetic space. I'll be adding it to my list of "Aesthetic Atlanta Date Night Spots" I ordered a negroni and it was very good. If it is one of your go-to drinks, they make a good one here. My friend ordered a cocktail off the menu and she liked it. I did not try hers so I can't speak to it. For dinner, I was not crazy hungry and sushi tends to fill me up quickly I played it safe and ordered the soft shell crab roll and it was very good. A bit on the small side, I left comfortable full not stuffed. I could have maybe ordered something else to feel a bit more satiated. The presentation was beautiful though. My friend ordered items that were all off menu specials of the day so I can't speak to them as I did not try them and am unsure of the names anyway (I'm not a huge sushi girl. I know what I like and I tend to stick to those) Another BIG plus for me as someone who can use chopsticks but isn't good at it (think food flying and hitting other diners) I was not hassled at all for asking for a fork. No one made fu of me or made me feel bad about it. So if you're not great with them like me, or never learned to use them you will not be made uncomfortable there. Here are some notes of pros & cons: Pros: -Beautiful space, it's sexy and intimate and dark. If you want to impress a date this would be a great spot to start -a lot of options but not an overwhelming amount -unique cocktail offerings ana good wine list -if sitting at the bar (I recommend) the seats are plush and tufted so it's very comfortable -staff was friendly and knowledgeable but not hovering or bothersome -did not make me feel bad for asking for a fork -large sake menu Cons: -very dark. If you have poor eye site this may be a challenge for you -its not easy to find - deep in the belly yard complex. I always get lost in here -parking is expensive ($16 for 2 hours) if you are ITP I would Uber or walk -you should make a reservation s the space is small. You will need to put a card down to do so. There is a fine of $50 per person for missing your reservation (and a grace period of only 15 min) -cocktails are all very expensive ($16-$26) and I did not see any mocktail options on the menu - I did not ask for off menu options -portions were small. Everything we ordered was on the small side but it does seem that some of the rolls are a better size. Just not what we ordered. Like I said I will be back with my husband for a date night read more

Came here for dinner on a weekday and it wasn't super busy. We ordered the spicy yellowtail roll, wagyu roll and fried calamari. The fried calamari was pretty good and the batter felt pretty light. The sauce was pretty spicy and flavorful. The Wagyu roll was definitely our favorite! Super flavorful and the asparagus was such a nice crunchy touch! An explosion of textures. The spicy yellowtail roll was also pretty good and the salmon on top was definitely fresh and was a pretty thick cut. Docking some points for service. There seemed to be only one server for the entire restaurant. We weren't checked up on and also had to flag our server down multiple times for items. It wasn't bad service but it was non existent. For a nice ambiance and the price point I definitely hoped we had gotten better service. Overall, will skip this place for better service elsewhere. read more

The success of MF Sushi in Atlanta is a clear statement to the expansion by the owner Alex Kinjo, who has brought Kinjo Room to the Westside of Atlanta in 2022. To be blunt here, the start of the establishment was not incredibly smooth, as many things in life are not. Execution lacked and processes were deficient. Thus, it was important to avoid rash conclusions and allow Kinjo Room team to cement its vision. Today, Kinjo Room has grounded itself firmly as an establishment that holds its place in the new sushi district of Atlanta, the Westside. After all, it is surrounded by two Michelin starred restaurants (Mujo and Hayakawa) now along with classic local favorites like Eight Sushi lounge and Oku. The interior vibe is elegant to say the least as there is a sense of intimacy that is not rivaled by many establishments in the city. Creations by the chef are beautifully executed, from irresistible Uni the delicacy of which could rival cotton candy. The tuna tasting brings a pleasant way to experience the fish back to back. Sashimi is created with great attention to proportion and fish quality. While one can talk about fish all day, it's more important to note the people who make this establishment remarkable. The team goes above and beyond to ensure allergy requirements are clearly accounted for, that small requests like turning down the music are incorporated and showing a level of kindness that is always effervescent in the original MF Sushi location. Thus, Kinjo Room not only matured into one of the best sushi establishments in the city, but has all the ingredients to become the esssential place to enjoy sushi in the city without splurging on an omakase experience. read more

Overly priced but nice ambiance. Avocado balls were 10/10. The other 4 dishes i tried were just okay. I truly believe Eight Sushi still has the most fresh seafood sushi in town. read more

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. For details on booking omakase, call 470-355-9138 or email info@kinjoroom.com. Here's what four of us got: Cocktails * Fall of Man ($15) - Kakira Spirits Ugandan rum, lime, Granny Smith apple, aquafaba, nutmeg * Osaka Fizz ($18) - Toki Blended Japanese Whisky, lemon, orange oleo, bitters, thyme * Yard Bird ($25) - coconut-washed Michter's small-batch bourbon, lime, yuzu, campari, salt * Proper Measure x2 ($22 each) - Blade and Bow bourbon, Demerara Gum Syrup, bitters, smoked * Aged Woodford x3 ($20 each) - seasonal Woodford cocktail aged in Woodford oak barrel Beer * Yo-Ho Brewing "Wednesday Cat" Belgian White Ale ($10) * Sapporo x2 ($7 each) Appetizers * Baked Scallops ($16) - baked in Japanese mayo, topped with masago, eel sauce, red tobiko, sesame seeds, scallion * Calamari Karaage ($12) - fried calamari served w/ eel sauce, spicy mayo Special Rolls * Lobster Box ($27) - mayo, green onion, tobiko, eel sauce * Lobster Tempura Roll ($24) - shrimp, eel sauce * A5 Wagyu Beef roll ($30) - asparagus, truffle soy Yakitori * A5 Wagyu Beef yakitori ($35) - tare sauce, garlic chip, shishito peppers, green onions Sushi Appetizers * Otoro Carpaccio (market price $35) - topped w/ Nikiri Shoyu, microgreens, black pepper * Fresh Yellowtail ($20) - lemon zest, cilantro, serrano pepper, grated wasabi Kinjo Nigiri Sushi * Otoro (MP $30 for 2) - super fatty tuna w/ serrano pepper, truffle soy, caviar * Uni x2 (MP $30 for 2) - sea urchin roe w/fresh wasabi * Salmon Belly ($16) - not on menu * Chef's Signature Nigiri Menu x3 ($77 each) - 8 pieces premium nigiri Everything was fresh and high quality, especially the fish and uni. 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. read more

My fiancé and I wet here the day after Valentine's Day. The restaurant is absolutely beautiful. The food was delicious and fresh. The portions are very small for the price. However, we were charged a large party tax of 20% for 2 people. I was very confused by this charge. I hate to make assumptions of race, yet it does make you say hummm. At any rate after spending $200 leaving hungry and confused was not a great experience. I would love to say I will be returning because it is a beautiful vibe and restaurant yet, not worth the feeling of "why"! read more

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. read more

I think the good reviews must be for the bar part of the restaurant. I reserved the dining part not knowing there were different areas. When I walked in and gave my name to the hostess, she was rude and unwelcoming and told me I didn't have a reservation. I then showed her my reservation and she grabbed the menus and started walking for us to follow but didn't say a word or apologize for being wrong about the reservation. The whole dining area was open except for one table and she squeezed us in right next to the one table. So off the bat, not a fine dining experience but I let it go and we waited to order. The ambience was dark and romantic like a hotel bar so really nice visually but techno/dance music which seemed unfitting. Ordered a few rolls and a few drinks. Drinks were amazing. Rolls and sushi plates were great but nothing extraordinary. You could get the same sushi at most restaurants. The crispy rice tuna was almost burnt so I'd actually say better sushi at most restaurants. I expected this to be a more elevated MF Sushi since that's how's it's marketed as but MF Sushi in Inman is much better in my opinion. Booked this place as our anniversary dinner and it was a huge miss unfortunately. Paid $20 for valet. read more

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! read more

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. read more

Kinjo Room offers the ultimate romantic experience. Hands down would highly recommend for date nights and anniversaries. I wouldn't recommend for large parties due to the size, Kinjo room is very intimate. The service here at Kinjo Room is out of this world. By the time we sat down our water were being poured and out waitress was ready to go over the menu. I witnessed a couple leave the restaurant within 5 mins the table had already been turned and set for the next guest. The food came out in lightning speed. And all the food was hot and delectable. I ordered quite a few things on the menu. I got the Salmon Tartar, which was surprisingly delicious. The salmon was fresh. And the spices added gave the prefect balance. And then its topped with a quail egg which I was a little optimistic at first but if you mix it well its changes the constancy. The Shrimp Tempura. Fried to the perfection. The Calamari, OMGGG so tasty and it had this sauce that came with it that was so good I also ate it with the Shrimp Tempura. The only con to Kinjo was the minute menu. I love sushi and all the rolls are pretty standard and I value when they can get creative with their menu. That's about all that they lack here.. I wish they offered more but nonetheless the food I did order was delicious. Highly suggest parking valet. The parking can be somewhat of overwhelming with everyone going on in that little area. I went on a busy night, typically the weekends and valet was $17. And its about 100 feet from the restaurant. read more

TLDR: wagyu roll was not worth it but yellowtail and overall restaurant ambience was great Small restaurant with a pretty interior. Has a very cozy vibe, with sofas for booths and enormous cushioned chairs along the bar. The food was mostly very good. We were very impressed with the baked scallops, which were incredibly soft and flavorful. We also ordered the spicy yellowtail and boxed tuna rolls, both of which were very fresh and flavorful. The spicy yellowtail was our favorite. The waiter was also very attentive to our needs and made a great lychee martini. The only disappointment was the wagyu roll. This one had a pretty strange flavor composition, with much of the flavor of the beef overshadowed by very strong garlic. It was still tasty enough, but definitely not deserving of its inflated price. read more

My wife and friends went here the other night on a recommendation from a neighbor. The restaurant is rather small so reservations are highly recommended. The place has an intimate, moody sexy vibe and dimly lit. The atmosphere was almost to its detriment as we found ourselves having to use the lights on our phone to read the menu. The food was tasty but sparse. Each plate had you wanting more in terms of volume. This was a struggle considering there were four of us. Having gone to Oku several times where this was never a problem, it was challenging justifying going back. The drinks were good but hardly earth shattering and we felt overall highly overpriced. Food was delicious it portions are dainty. There are less expensive options within 10 minutes of their location. read more

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.

It's a solid 3.5 stars for me. Ambiance is gorgeous. Reminds me of a Japanese inspired Izakaya with a speak easy vibe. Cocktails are strong and delicious. My girlfriends and I literally tried almost the entire menu and had the Omakase. Everything was delicious. Fish was fresh. Most of the dishes were seasoned well. Now why the lower rating is the service was LACKING. Our server was friendly but she kept forgetting what we had ordered so we were missing items and she barely checked in on us. We would have ordered a lot more had she came by to ask if we needed anything. It was not busy as we were one of only 3 other tables there that night. I believe the owner also came in during our dinner and it became kind of odd that he stood by the edge of the bar and just watched everyone without saying a word. He did come by to refill our waters because (again) our server could never be found but he said NOTHING to us. Not a quick how's it going or even a Hi. Awkward...... So overall food was good and cocktails were great, but for the price, I would expect much better service. I would return but sit at the bar to avoid a lackluster experience and just enjoy the food. It is a gorgeous restaurant. read more

Kinjo room has an amazing ambiance! It's like they tried to combine Umi and Himutsu together but more chill. Interior is beautiful and gives you a night outing without unbearable loudness of music. Great date spot. I would definitely come back for the instagrammable drinks and small bites but overall for the steep price, the food was lacking flavor. Out of the 4 drinks I've tried, my favorite was the Maiden's Wish. It had a wow factor, tasted semi sweet and fruity. Perfect drink! Food wise, I would stick to nigiri and lobster box. I would probably come back and just order multiple lobster box orders, it was the best thing on their menu. Everything else was just bland and not memorable. WARNING, do not order their specials of the night. If interested, ask for price. All of our orders from the tonights special was not worth the price. Service was good overall but I do think it can be tightened for what you're paying for. Some of the items that I had ordered did not show up so I had to ask about it. One of the server that dropped off our food, didn't know what she was dropping off which was disappointing. We did end on a good point with the dessert mousse. It was better than expected. The passionfruit and Mango mousse was refreshing and beautiful while I was expecting just whipped mousse kind of dessert. One other note is that there's only one bathroom and felt short compared to Umi's heated bidet. read more
