I especially loved the hand rolls, temaki, Taiwanese chicken nuggets, desserts, and matcha lattes. The lunch special is also an amazing value for the quality and portion. If you're in the area and enjoy Japanese food with a modern twist, this place is definitely worth a visit. I'll definitely be coming back!

We enjoyed various temaki (Japanese hand rolls), along with other food and drink, from Cuddlefish's…read morerestaurant menu and separate bakery and cafe menu this past Saturday. Everything was good, as was the service and ambiance. This is a fun and neat concept - unique to Atlanta - located in the High Street mixed-use development in Dunwoody/Perimeter. Cuddlefish originally opened in the old Brush Sushi space in Decatur in November 2022. Cuddlefish moved and opened in Dunwoody in March 2025. (Brush moved and opened in Buckhead in August 2023.) Cuddlefish is from the same Michelin-starred, award-winning folks behind Brush, Lucky Star, Momonoki, etc. (Jason Liang, ChingYao Wang, John Chen). Cuddlefish is on OpenTable, so you can book reservations there and earn points. Free parking is available in one of High Street's garages. The best place to park is in the garage that's in the same building as Cuddlefish. Enter the garage via Cross St. After parking, there's a convenient walkway that leads out of the garage that's only a couple storefronts away from Cuddlefish. The restaurant has a nice corner spot at High Street. Outside, there's a spacious covered patio. Inside, the temaki bar, dining room, and bakery-cafe all share a modern, open space. The bakery-cafe is small. We had a party of five, including a baby. Here's what my wife and I had: RESTAURANT: Sake Creations * Matcha Saketini sake cocktail ($14) Other Drinks * Yuzu Lychee Mocktail (off-menu, on the house; thank you!) Starters * Sweet Potato Chips ($6) - plum seasoning * Garlic Black Pepper Edamame ($7) * Crispy Tofu ($10) - Sichuan peppercorn, soy garlic, scallion Temaki * Chili Avocado ($7) - chili ponzu, chili paste, negi * Truffle Shiitake ($8) * Shrimp Katsu ($9) - pineapple, cantaloupe * Real Crab California ($9) - chili aioli * Salmon Tataki, cooked ($8) - Asian pear, shallot ponzu, negi * Yellowtail & Salsa ($8) - jalapeno cilantro, fried leeks * Salmon Tataki, regular ($8) - Asian pear, shallot ponzu, negi, ikura * Toro Uni Ikura ($25) * Salmon Ikura ($9) * Hokkaido Uni ($25) BAKERY-CAFE: * Matcha Tiramisu Latte ($7) - iced, oat milk * Matcha Strawberry Croissant Cup ($7) * Matcha Chocolate Cookie ($5) My wife and I each had five temaki plus apps. That was enough to fill us up for a meal. I probably could've had one or two more temaki. In general, every item was well-made and delicious. All of the temaki were great and all of the ingredients were fresh. The presentation was beautiful. My favorite temaki were the Toro Uni Ikura, Salmon Ikura, and Hokkaido Uni. My wife is pregnant, so they accommodated her with a free mocktail, cooking the salmon and excluding the ikura on her Salmon Tataki temaki. We appreciated that. Our table gobbled everything up. The Matcha Saketini was thick and heavy on the matcha. We did find it cumbersome to remove two strips of plastic for each temaki, but we understand why they do it (to keep the seaweed crisp). Sometimes, some of the ingredients would slide off with the plastic wrap, which was not ideal. I heard that if you sit at the bar, you don't have to deal with the plastic wrap (e.g., if you do a temaki tasting). The treats from the bakery-cafe were yummy. Service was excellent. All of the staff was polite and friendly. Thank you, Sian, Etta, and the Asian guy with glasses whose name I did not get. The name "Cuddlefish" is a play on cuttlefish, which is similar to a squid. Growing up, I ate dried cuttlefish from Thailand as a snack.

Summit Coffee is a local favorite, and I'm here to confirm the hype is real!…read more Over the weekend, I stopped by for a Saturday morning pick-me-up. Shamelessly, I tried both the Banana Cream Pie Iced Latte and the Peach Lemonade--and I'm so glad I did! Both drinks were perfectly crafted and full of flavor. I also ordered the Cinnamon Twist, which had just the right amount of cinnamon and paired perfectly with my drink. The ambiance was another highlight. With plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, friendly staff, and a playlist full of classic hits, it was the perfect spot to relax, catch up with a friend, or get a little work done. If you're looking for a cozy café with great drinks and even better vibes, Summit Coffee is definitely worth the visit.

I don't know why it's taken me this long to finally draft up a review for Valor when my first visit…read morewas in 2023! I was super excited to finally get a REAL coffee shop in the neighborhood, especially since I have loved their Alpharetta location since 2020. Since then, I've been back a few times to meet friends for a cup of coffee or grab a bag of whole beans to go to make my own espresso at home! It's not the cheapest bag of beans but it's definitely freshly roasted and good quality! I love their seasonal bevs - I've tried their fall drinks like the Tokyo Drift (Applewood smoked cortado, orange blossom syrup, freshly grated nutmeg, orange peel) and the Spice is Right (Iced, spicy, creamy, coffee cocktail vibe with cold brew, hot honey syrup, vanilla bean and milk). You can easily sub out alternate milks, even on the seasonal specialty drinks. I appreciate the themes and play on the seasons. And also just simple but delicious drinks like the Nitro Lavender Vanilla Oat Latte. The seating can be a huge issue. I seem to always stumble in during peak, maybe? There seems to be plenty of space but no seating/tables. Many tables for 2 or 4 would be taken by 1-2 people studying/working all day, which is understandable but still frustrating. There is some outdoor seating (dog friendly, woohoo!) but is extremely vulnerable to the elements. Overall, I'm grateful for more local and noncommercial coffee shops in Dunwoody! Bring em on!!

Stopped by Yaba's Bagels on the north side of Dunwoody and came away impressed…read more The highlight here is the bagel itself. It had everything I look for in a great bagel: soft interior, plenty of chew, and just enough snap on the outside. I ordered the jalapeño cheddar bagel with pastrami, egg, and cheese, and it was fantastic. The pastrami was flavorful and well-seasoned, the egg and cheese complemented it perfectly, and the jalapeño cheddar bagel added a nice kick without being overly spicy. I usually order cheddar bagels, but they were out, and honestly the jalapeño cheddar may have converted me. I also tried the cheese danish and chocolate croissant, both of which were very enjoyable. Later I came back for the Philly cheesesteak. It was flavorful and well-made, but if I'm being honest, the bagels are the reason to visit. That's clearly where they shine. The menu is fun and creative, with plenty of options that make me want to come back and try more. Service was friendly, pricing felt fair, and there was plenty of parking since it's located in a shopping center. Inside, there are plenty of tables, though larger groups may find the seating a little tight since the tables are fairly close together. Still, it's a comfortable spot to sit and enjoy breakfast or lunch. Parking is a non issue since it's part of a shopping center area. Atlanta is spread out enough that it's nice to have favorite spots in different parts of town, and if you're in the Dunwoody area, Yaba's Bagels is definitely a place I'd recommend. For first-timers, I'd say start with one of their pastrami bagel sandwiches. That's the one I'll be thinking about until my next visit. -- Roli Eats

I got The Hotlanta on a jalapeño cheddar bagel. When I took my first bite, I was wowed by the flavors I was tasting in my mouth. The jalapeño bagel combined with the scallion cream cheese was very savory! I also liked the fluffiness of the bagel. However, I was not a fan of the turkey bacon, although I know it is because this place prioritizes halal options, which is great for those who prefer that. I think that the bagels were a bit pricey, but that might just be everywhere. I would come back to try another item off their menu as their signature bagels are where the Mediterranean flavors are at.

It actually tasted like real Nashville hot -- not the watered-down, fake spicy version a lot of places do. The flavor had that perfect heat and seasoning balance. I was also obsessed with the sauce bar. They had around ten different sauces and every single one I tried was delicious. Such a fun touch and definitely sets them apart. The cheese fries were insanely good -- super cheesy and perfectly seasoned. And to top it all off, I ended with the Oreo custard which was amazing and tasted so fresh. Service was fast, food was hot, and everything hit. Definitely coming back.
