We came here with another couple for Alpharetta restaurant week! There was plenty of parking to the right of the restaurant. Make sure you park at the designated parking (note on resy and they also send me a text day of). Reservation was easy to make on resy. When you walk in, the bar is to the left and the dining room is to the right. Our server was so nice and he suggested that we order one of each in the tasting menu so we can try both! We were first served a nice, cold sake in a cute bamboo ramekin. The app was delicious! I love the smoked hiramasa with the lovely pickled cucumbers. The scallop was nice and it's sweet from the yuzu. The sushi/sashimi were the highlight! The bluefin sampler was so fresh and all the sushi combination was fabulous! The main was sea bass and miso cod. The sea bass was better than the cod, but both were wonderful with the crunch of seaweed and sushi rice underneath. Overall, a great experience and we enjoyed everything! Service was attentive and friendly! I want to try to come to one of their bluefin tuna cutting (they do them every other month)! read more

Service was great and attentive. Prices are very fair especially for the area, all the food was delicious, sushi was fresh tasting. It's a little small restaurant but it's lovely for date night and feels intimate. Small parking lot but also plenty of spaces around in very quick walking distance too. Great spot read more

The ambiance here was so amazing! everyone was super friendly from the second you walk in. We sat at the bar since we got the omakase. Every single piece was amazing and so worth the price. The sushi chef was so friendly and knowledgeable. My favorite was definitely the salmon belly and the hand roll as well. We got the picante roll too! It was so fresh and delicious. The dipping sauce that came with it was so refreshing and loved the yuzu flavor. The service here was so friendly! We ended the night with the ice cream with butterscotch drizzle and topped with matcha powder. It was so amazing. Overall, one of my favorite sushi spots. read more

Came by on a Sunday to try their rolls since they are half off then. Huge restaurant with lots of seating and good for a date. Service was friendly. We ordered the rainbow roll, ba ba bu, salmon lover (forgot the name), and big tempura (also forgot the exact name). Rolls were not amazing and not bad either. Quite westernized and good as an intro to sushi for those not familiar. Likely won't return but glad we got to try it! read more

We came here for a Father's Day dinner because they offer a pre made menu and everything seemed to be going great initially. We ordered our cocktails and they came out normal time. We were also the only ones in the restaurant at 5pm. We ordered two baby high chairs and mentioned it in the ressy as well. One of the severs took one of the chairs away thinking we weren't using it and never asked before they took it, so now we had to feed one of the babies on our lap. We also requested if they could find another one and they only have 2 high chairs and one booster. Why does this well known restaurant only have 1 booster and 2 high chairs. Anyways, that's the least of the unfortunate events that occurred during this time. We had two servers simultaneously coming to take orders and then we addressed this with the one server that took the main dinner order; he comes around and says I'm not your server, meanwhile, the main lady that is working the floor said that they are all helping each other. We ordered our apps right away and they came out in time and as soon as we wanted to place our main course we couldn't find any of the servers. We had to wait and wait and wait until someone listened to us and finally came out to take our order. The table across from us there were 14 people being served back to back with their orders. None of them had to call the severs and were being served instantly. I am not here to make any allegations on how they are treating their customers but we were being constantly ignored and dismissed. The main lady keeps saying we are sorry and came back to confirm our order because the two tickets we had before apparently she wanted to confirm with while another server said they only had one ticket for us. We have 4 little ones and cannot imagine if we waited to feed them here how hangryyyy they would have been. We are currently waiting 2 hours for our three sushi rolls. This is a live review because clearly I have all the time in the world to write this while I wait for my sushi. The food is good, nothing against it but the SERVICE, god damn the service is a minus 0. It's so bad when you enter the restaurant at 5pm for your reservation and do not get your food until 7:30. We asked for the WiFi for the kids iPad since they have been waiting for so long and the lady did not want to give us the WiFi. You'd think she would understand given how long we have been waiting for. The only response we kept getting is we are sorry, we are sorry. We also wanted to order another round of drinks and now did not because our food is taking a forever to come out and we are honestly just trying to leave at this point. When we received one of the rolls, we got two of the same ones and the rest of the 4 rolls were "lost in translation" apparently cause the server that dropped off an extra roll didn't know that it was suppose to go to the table across from us and then said " you've got ur order right? This whole experience was a joke honestly, I cannot fathom all of the mishaps that occurred and do not know how they operate and are still open. Towards the end, one of the servers said come again and we said probably not.... The server goes OK thank you. This just shows they do not value their customers and the type of experience you have. read more

What a nice little upscale sushi bar! I was instantly blown away by the posh and sleek interior, and the hostess was so sweet as we were instantly sat down. The candlelit lighting was beautiful and accentuated by the decor and bar lights inside the restaurant. I ordered the Ba Ba Bu roll (which was half off during happy hour!) and the 5 Sashimi platter (15 pieces in total, 3 of each). Fish was fresh and delicious, melting in my mouth basically. The Ba Ba Bu roll had a delightfully bright note with the lemon! Overall, such a great experience. Would definitely recommend! read more

My best friend and I randomly chose monkey 68 on a Friday night when we couldn't decide what to eat (and everywhere else needed reservations at 7:30). We did call ahead but didn't make reservations. It was right near downtown Alpharetta, but tucked away a few blocks ahead with its own parking lot. It was pretty crowded (again peak time on a Friday night) but we were sat at a high top without any reservations. We ordered two rolls (Ba ba bu and one whose name I forgot) and the bang bang shrimp. If I could eat that bang bang shrimp has the only meal for the rest of my life, I would. read more

I'm a huge fan of Chirori so I was excited to try Chef Jackie's new restaurant, Monkey 68 Kitchen & Bar in Alpharetta. Apparently, there's a Monkey 68 in Roswell as well so don't make the same mistake I did & go to the right location lmao. I visited last night, which happened to be Alpharetta Restaurant Week & tried their tasting menu. OMG, everything was soooo goood & I left feeling full & satisfied. My fav new drink is the Matcha Highball, Japanese Whiskey & Matcha is a match made in heaven!! The Iheartdogs cocktail is very refreshing as well!! Do yourself a favor & come check it out (: you def won't be disappointed! Thank you Chef Jackie, Misty & Daniel for your hospitality & impeccable service. I've always had a great experience with Chef Jackie & his team. Food, service & ambiance always on point! Can't wait to come back to try their other menus as well! ^^ read more

Stopped in because I had sushi on my mind all week. This place had great decor and was very cute. Would be a great place for a date or girls night out. It was not packed at all but the service was a little slow. However, my server was very polite and attentive. The ramen bowl was really good. The sushi was okay. read more

I would give it ZERO stars if I could. We had a group with two babies who needed high chairs and we requested these with our reservation, yet a server took one away without asking us and we were told "sorry, we don't know who took it and we only have 2 total in this restaurant" so that was problem number 1 of like 10. As a mom, it is hard enough going out for dinner with little children but we mainly went because it was Father's Day and this made the start to a TERRIBLE dinner (that we didn't even get by the way). Next up, we ordered apps and drinks which were pretty decent I will say however it took over 40 minutes to get a cocktail and then only did we receive it after we gave them a friendly reminder. For some odd reason we had 2 servers which made ordering a DOOZY - and none the less, our dinner orders were so messed up that neither server could recall what we ordered despite writing it down (shocking???!) and then after we reminded them of the order, it came out over an hour later at a whopping 7pm and it was STILL WRONG. So as you can imagine, with 4 children under the age of 6, scheduling a 5pm dinner was about as considerate and safe as we could do so we would be in and out BY 7pm but this was such a hot mess that we ultimately ended Father's Day dinner by not eating bc the orders were not right, and left to go send the Fathers to eat elsewhere on their own. Thank you for ruining our Father's Day and also being so very unapologetic after giving us the WORST service EVER. Also, PSA: there was a large party that sat next to us that had called in their ENTIRE order before they arrived. They must have known how crap the service is to have done that so the restaurant would have their food ready by the time they arrived. Funny, right?! How embarrassing!!! read more

Ignore all of the old reviews. Since 1/22/24, Monkey 68 is under completely new ownership, and it shows. Chef Jackie, who helped open Umi and Oku, as well as his current restaurant, Chirori, has taken the helm and steered this ship right. My friends and I are hugeeeee fans of Chirori, so it made sense to attend their soft opening. We don't trek OTP for no damn reason, but it was well worth it. I need everybody to come and experience it because it's one of the best meals I've had in a very long time, and ya girl likes to eat. We all opted for the decadent omakase. This is a 15 course nigiri omakase, which is similar to their offering at Chirori. They also offer the signature option, which includes an appetizer, 10 pc sashimi, hot course, 8 pc nigiri, and likely dessert and soup (I forgot what he said). Both options cost $130 and while it is a steep price tag, it's on par with the other omakases around town. This one, though, is worth every penny. Chef Jackie sources his fish fresh (like uni from Hokkaido or these stupid good jumbo oysters from LA), and you can definitely tell. Each bite of nigiri completely melts in your mouth. My god. I kept thinking the bite I was eating was my favorite, but then I'd try the next and change my mind. Absolutely outstanding. They are like butter when they hit your tongue, and you almost get upset because you wanted to savor it for so much longer. Chef created the black magic roll at Oku and brought it to Monkey 68. YES. MAAM. still as amazing as I remember. God bless. We also got to try the asparagus tempura, Brussels sprouts, and squid ink sashimi box from our neighbors, and you guessed it...all delicious. Cocktails were just as good. Each drink is modeled after one of the Chinese zodiac animals. Between the four of us, we tried the pig, rabbit, horse, dog, dragon, and goat. Each has a unique flavor profile, and we loved them all. The horse was my favorite with the muddled strawberries and ginger beer. So refreshing. The goat was my second favorite. Like a warm hug. Talk to the bartender. She's got a back story for each drink, and I was too lit to remember them all. But for instance, the snake drink has a numbing effect since when you're bitten by a snake, you often get numbed. Or the goat drink has a kick to it because...it's a goat. Our servers were amazing. Staff from top to bottom were so pleasant. Free onsite parking. Entrance is in the front (we walked to two different "doors" only to be redirected. I hate driving out this far, but I will gladly do it to eat this food again. read more

So much better than I expected! This place nailed everything, service, cocktails and every morsel of food!

Alan, the general manager was very engaging and helpful. The food was creative. The cocktails also. We enjoyed our visit.

This is definitely a hidden gem. The ambiance is surprisingly nice. A must try omakase experience that is to die for. I went for double the omakase experience and instead of one choice I got both choices. It's absolutely a restaurant you must try in Alpharetta. Allen and Jess were very knowledge and kept me entertained the whole time I was there. read more

Wow, what an unbelievable afternoon of a culinary delight. I finally got an opportunity to go see my favorite sushi chef, chef Jackie Chang, at his new sushi restaurant Monkey 68 Kitchen And Bar in Alpharetta along with my mom, Ron, Chef Aaron Phillips of Lazy Betty and his lovely wife Lai. Chef Jackie's Omakase course was bar none the best I have ever had; Chef Aaron even joked that Chef Jackie was working towards a Michelin star and that would not be an understatement. Thank you, Chef Jackie, and Misty for your incredible hospitality and for accommodating my eating time window and opening an hour earlier than the usual business hours. Cannot wait for our next get together to explore more exotic culinary concoctions. read more

Brand new management and went to the soft opening today. Chef Jackie has proven himself as a savior of restaurants because the service and food quality we got tonight was above superb. Shoutout to Swan and Ethan who took so much care of us tonight! The music and the finishes of the restaurant was such a vibe. When dining here you feel like you are part of the upper echelon without breaking the bank. The parking is easy just make sure you enter from the front entrance as there is a furniture store entrance that can get confusing. Overall amazing experience. DRINKS WERE SOME OF THE BEST IVE HAD! They have zodiac drinks, so my goal is to try the entire calendar! read more

TLDR ; food was not bad, experience was facepalm ‍ It had been a few months since we've been to monkey 68, but we heard it was under new management so we decided to give it a try. I understand new restaurants go through growing pains but what we experienced was pretty rough. We were sat promptly on a Saturday night but we were only given 1 menu for 3 people to share. The drinks were lacking, the same cocktail menu as the previous owner, but far less tasty, and weak. The food came out extremely slowly, the first orders showed up about 42 minutes after we placed our order. I timed it . Some of our food didn't show up so we had to ask another waiter to check on it, and 20 minutes later the rest of our food arrived. Small restaurant but it seemed extremely overbooked and understaffed. I hate to leave bad reviews but the experience we had was not pleasant. The food was definitely not bad, but the service left much to be desired read more

Such an innovative restaurant! Monkey 68 is located at the end of the Downtown Alpharetta strip on Main St. I came here for a date night on a Sunday and it wasn't busy, very quaint. The decor and ambiance is lovely and they offer a variety of Asian fusion dishes. I loved the cocktail menu which features the 12 animal zodiac signs based on Chinese astrology. I ordered the laughing horse cocktail, very fruity and refreshing. My date had the dragon cocktail, which was presented really nicely as our waitress poured it at the table from a smoky carafe. Unique presentation. For dinner, we shared a few small plates which were very filling. The dishes are served tapas style and come out in the order they are received. We had the: Kimchi fried rice with egg served on top, a lot of spices and excellent flavor Sex and the city roll, very fresh with spicy tuna and mango Korean meatballs served with bread and melted cheese, the meatballs and cheese were delicious For dessert, we finished off with the Korean pancake. Delicious! It was topped with ice cream, syrup and strawberry. We really enjoyed Monkey 68 and would definitely return. read more

I've heard about this place (The roswell location though) for some time so we decided to check out the Alpharetta location for an early Father's Day dinner. Its off the beaten path soo not exactly walkable from the rest of the downtown Alpharetta area. I liked that there was dedicated parking but didn't like that it was valet only. The building itself is very cute but the outdoor area leaves much to be desired as there was no landscaping. The inside is incredibly small for a building of this size. There was a small area with two bar height tables and seats and then a small dining area. We made reservations and were seated at one of the bar height tables. Overall I felt like the appetizers were pretty good. We got the Brussel sprouts ($9) and the short ribs ($17). I honestly felt like only the ghagnam style sushi roll was worth it. I was so disappointed in the lady in red roll, and the rolls royce was fine but could have been better. IMO the rolls were small and not exactly the most flavorful. Service was decent, and it was a cute place overall! read more

Found on TikTok so had to check it out. This place is in downtown Alpharetta so there's lots to do after eating here. Came for dinner and tried the Bang Bang Shrimp, Korean Meatballs, Toro on Fire Sushi, Lady in Red Sushi and the Mt. Ebi Sushi. All were delicious. I think the Korean meatballs are a must try and we really liked the Toro on Fire sushi as well as the Bang Bang Shrimp. As for drinks I had the Charming Snake and my friend had the Run for the pigs. My drink I highly recommend if you like a proper smoky mezcal. My friends drink was good too and it was cool because they lit it on fire. I defo recommend my drink more because my friend ended up ordering it on the second round lol Service was also good. Our server had great recommendations. read more

Monkey 68 is seriously one of the best Japanese inspired restaurants in the area. The place is under new ownership in 2024, and chef-owner Jackie brings a real passion to his work. I eat at Monkey 68 every time I'm in town, and I request seats at the bar to watch him and his crew perfecting their craft. I ask Jackie to serve me whatever inspires him, and I've never been disappointed. The wine list is very good, but I recommend to try the craft cocktails. The food is the star of the show, as it should be. Some of my favorites have been wagyu & toro, smoked Spanish Mackerel, smoked cod, and a delicious raw tuna dish on special seaweed. The service is also very good. Our water glasses remained full and our plates were arranged between courses. Highly attentive staff. Check out the DutchCrafters furniture showroom at the back of the building too. read more

I came here to meet some friends on a chilly Friday night. Let's just say that COVID here is a bit more freeing. The seating is pretty close together so if you're worried about it I would recommend to take that into account. Otherwise since everything is starting to get back open, we came here on a chilly Friday night to try this spot out. And we ordered an assortment of things. Starting as an app we shared: Angry Ribs Korean styled fries. I believe it was KBBQ. Kimchi Fried Rice Korean Meatballs The apps were alright, the angry ribs were heavily sauced. It was pretty much fall off the bone and also because of the sauce was well flavored. The fries I would have to say if you're thinking of getting it to pass. It was alright, nothing special. The fried rice, well it was definitely a version. I would say it was very catered to the American taste buds. Meatballs were pretty well flavored as well, but it was alright. For my main, I was simple and got a roll: Toro on Fire Sushi - it was alright. I enjoyed it, but was it absolutely amazing? It was alright in my opinion. How to make it more exciting? I think there's only so much you can do with sushi though, so I understand. This was only my thoughts on this one roll as well. Overall, the service was nice and the group had a great time. Some of the dishes I thought were a little overpriced, but I guess it's because of all the inflation and well supply restrictions. But other than that, I thought it was great. If you don't mind close seating with other people, and you want some decent sushi/Asian fusion. read more

This was our first time visiting the Alpharetta location, and we had a great experience! We absolutely loved that there is ample outdoor seating at this location! We sat outside and had amazing service and the quality of food and presentation is just SO impressive. Every item we had was so delicious! Some of our favorites are the Bang Bang Shrimp, LOL roll, and the double decker roll. This time I had a strawberry-basil ginger beer and it was so good. Parking is a little tough and tight in this area because they do share the building with other businesses, but don't forget there are 2 parking decks in downtown Alpharetta area and it would be the perfect to stroll around before or after dinner! They do take reservations, and I do recommend having one since it is a smaller restaurant. Great spot for girls night, date night, or just wanting some great sushi! read more

The sushi is delicious and so beautifully prepared! Also great bartender who knows how to make a great cocktail!

As a longtime and loyal customer of the Roswell location, my wife and I were excited to try this new location because it's closer to us. Unfortunately, we did not have a great experience. Made a reservation, arrived on time and the restaurant was basically empty on a Saturday night -- there were maybe 4 other parties inside. Despite all the open tables in the room, they sat us at the worst possible table. Right next to the kitchen entrance / exit under a bright white light (different color temperature than the rest of the house lights) that felt like we were sitting in a doctor's office waiting room. My wife went to ask if we could sit somewhere else -- maybe at one of the SEVERAL other open tables -- and they didn't know how to handle this request. So they moved us to the bar area to a table that had the same exact off temperature bright light above it. What a mess. Those lights are such a vibe killer and they give my wife migraines (she told them that when she first asked if we could move). So, we got up and asked if there were ANY other tables we could sit at -- they said "unfortunately not, this is what we have available". I politely said we were going to leave and they just said "ok, sorry". Listen, I know this sounds like the pettiest complaint, but if I'm going to pay upwards of $150 for a meal -- VIBE and CUSTOMER SERVICE is EVERYTHING. Details matter, it's why you pay to come to a place like this instead of a strip mall sushi joint. You guys got it all wrong and we won't be coming back. We'll stick with driving the extra 10-15 mins to go to the Roswell location. You really should try harder to create a quality experience for your customers. read more

Hubs and I celebrated Valentine's Day with a late dinner at Monkey 68. We made reservations beforehand and arrived a few minutes early. We were greeted and seated right away. The space is beautiful. High ceilings and bright, unique decor and elements. Casual atmosphere. Plenty of seating and ample parking. Monkey 68 serves sushi and tapas style items with Asian influence. We were pretty hungry when we arrived, so we ordered quite a few things: Run for the pigs $15 A.K.A. Mickey $12 Yellowtail jalapeño shots $15 Mushroom salad $12 Brussel sprouts $8 Lady in red $17 Mt. Ebi $14 Hodduk $8 We started with drinks, run for the pigs and A.K.A. mickey. Both were strong and delicious. Run for the pigs was served with a flaming lime. It was very cool! Drinks were followed by yellowtail jalapeño shots, mushroom salad, and brussel sprouts. Then, we shared two sushi rolls: lady in red and Mt. Ebi. We finished dinner with dessert, hodduk. Everything was excellent from start to finish! The dishes were full of flavor and textures. Presentation was visually appealing. Difficult for me to choose one or even three favorites! I would order everything again. For "tapas" style, the dishes were pretty generous in serving. A tad bit pricey, though. Service was wonderful. The staff was on top of everything. Our food arrived in a timely manner, and our server communicated with us throughout the entire evening. We had a lovely experience, and look forward to returning in the future! read more

Love this place... staff is always cordial and helpful with smiles. Sushi is incredible Gustavo ROCKS!!

TL;DR Delicious collection of small plates and sushi in a modern, stylishly appointed setting. First of all, there is actually parking here; however, it's valet so bring some bills with you. Let me first remark on the Hidden Dragon cocktail. It arrived with quite the bit of fanfare, trapped in a bottle with hickory smoke injected into it. The server brings a nice whiskey glass with a large ice cube table side and uncorks the bottle, releasing the smoke, and pours the drink over the cube. It's a nice cocktail with a very clean taste. For a sushi roll, we ordered the Toro on Fire. This was really delicious. The seared fish on top gave it a nice, unusual flavor. Paired it with the poke trio which I found a bit bland. After pouring a little soy sauce over the top, it livened up well. The wasabi in it gives it a nice kick. The kimchi fries is a must try. I mean French fries with kimchi, meat, and cheese. What can go wrong? Paired it with the Angry Ribs. Spiced well and pretty much off the bone. To finish off, a brown sugar latte and the ho dduk ice cream dessert go very well together. Definitely going back. HOW TO READ MY REVIEWS: 1 Star - Does not approach edible. Enter at your own risk. 2 Stars - If I'm in the area, I'd pick something else. 3 Stars - I would stop by if I happen to be in the area. 4 Stars - I would pick this place out of other places nearby. 5 Stars - I would go out of my way to dine here. read more

If you want to experience terrible service, make a reservation here. We came here for dinner tonight, with reservations. The minute we entered the restaurant we just awkwardly stood around waiting for a host/hostess...someone, anyone... to greet us. Finally the guy behind the bar making sushi stepped away to seat us at our table. We then waited a good ten minutes before a waiter came by to take our order. He was then MIA the rest of dinner, minus the time he put the food on our table. There were multiple points during our dinner that I wanted to ask the status on our food (we got the sushi first but then waited 15-20 min for our other dinner items) or just ask for a refill on our water and there was not a single waiter in the dining area that we could even signal to help us. I don't really understand why the entire wait staff was just poof gone. My husband finally managed to make eye contact with another waitress who was walking past the dining area so we could get our check. All in all a pretty awful experience and I will never come back here again. read more

I've been looking forward to trying Monkey out forever. A good new sushi/sashimi place in my neighborhood is always welcome. I finally got the chance tonight. I got take out but I did order at the bar and had a drink while waiting. The space is pretty cool though a bit off....sushi bar/kitchen and some dining on one side and the bar and dining in a separate room but it works. And both spaces have great, big, nice bright window that I love. As I mentioned I got take-away so really only interacted with the bartender. But she was great. Quick, fun and helpful. While I waited on order prep I watched the service in the "bar dining" and the staff at the bar pass and they all seemed great and very focused. When I got home, a little disappointing. I got the Sushi/Sashimi platter...6 nigiri and 12 sashimi. Very fresh and good quality but portion were almost laughable. 18 pieces, $40, on a 4 x 6 take out tray (see photo). In total, I'd guess 5 ounces of fish. Very disappointing. I literally had to go dinner round 2 to get full. Bottom line ...great space, great service, good quality, very poor value compared to nearby options ....Sushi Uchi, Natsu or JP Sushi (a bit further but so good). Monkey nearest my house, I was hoping to be my go-to. ‍ read more
