The manager, Katy, will meet you outside the restaurant and know your name before you even have a chance to speak it. If you're arriving early or waiting for some of your party, you'll be seated at the cocktail bar to wait and drink. In our case, we were brought right to our seats. We were offered a drink pairing and some additions to the tasting menu for the night. My partner and I both opted for cocktails and saké, but I hope to do the drink pairing next time. Their sommelier was able to answer any questions we had about drinks, and her recommendations were spot on. We also ordered their caviar dish, which was excellent and I'd recommend - although it did seem a little misplaced as a French-style dish on an otherwise Japanese-style menu. The zensai (appetizers) offered before the nigiri tasting started were all excellent in their own ways. You're able to converse with the chefs as they work in front of you throughout the entire tasting. We were offered 10 courses of nigiri as part of the tasting, with some options for off-menu pieces that we opted for as well. The dessert was excellent and paired with some green tea before the meal came to a close. We were given copies of our menu for the night, incense, and because we went to celebrate around my birthday, I was given a card signed by the staff. Expect to pay between $300-$500 a person depending on pairings or extras. A price I was happy to pay given the level of service and food. I've paid more for meals I was less happy with. Can't wait to go back!

Warm, fun, putting on a real show, searing the fish tableside and plating it beautifully, clearly wanting us to film and enjoy it. They were great. Everything around them was where it fell apart. The "unlimited sake" they advertise didn't really happen. We had to ask two or three times for a single refill, which stops feeling unlimited pretty fast. The room was dirtier and louder than I'd expect for $120 omakase (tip was already included after the $99 meal), and the fish leaned toward the cheaper end, sea bream, mackerel, no salmon, nothing that felt special for the price. I've done omakase in a lot of places and I came in knowing what it can be. This didn't get there. The part that actually soured it: we were taking photos because we were thrilled to be there, doing exactly what the chefs were encouraging. A nearby guest seemed annoyed that we were enjoying ourselves, and instead of anything being said to her, a server came over and singled me out. In a bright, loud room, while the chefs were actively performing for the cameras, that felt backwards. It made the happiest, most engaged people at the counter feel like the problem. I wanted this to be a special night for my friend, and the chefs did their part. The restaurant around them just didn't protect it.

I do not understand the high reviews for this restaurant…read more It's not that good. Our server had a difficult time talking about the food. It seems as though he doesn't understand the flavors or was maybe just unfamiliar with the menu? I don't know, but forgiveable. The items on the menu online were very different than what was offered on the menu in the actual restaurant. I was interested in eating items that were not available and the food on the menu did not interest me as much. Too much fusion. The best thing we had was the miso soup . The fish was not "fishy", yet did not seem that fresh. You would think on a Friday night the food would be fresh and ready to go. Even the rice didn't seem fresh.

Had to get some drinks of course and I am a sucker for a lychee martini which was delish. To start we got some classic edamame. We also decided to try the croissant with the mapo tofu which was essentially a spread but yum. We got the scallion pancake as well which was so good we got 2. For sushi we did the yellowtail jalapeno the wagyu and the spicy tuna. While I love the yellowtail the spicy tuna was my fave. And wagyu is always great! The negitoro was good but maybe not worth the splurge Make sure to save room for dessert because they have so many sweet treats. We of course had to another pastry and the espresso martini soft serve which was stunning!!! And then the matcha brownie for the show. They validate parking as well so overall such a great experience

From the moment we walked in it just didn't feel like a sushi restaurant. More like a bougie upscale restaurant trying to be something it's not. That aside, let's talk about why people go to sushi restaurants........ TO HAVE GREAT SUSHI. And for a very expensive spot like this, you 100% expect perfection. It was far far from what we expected. Way overpriced, tiny and quite honestly very poor quality fish for the most part. Also way too saucy for a legit sushi restaurant. And let's talk about the "brush" aspect of the dinner. So apparently some genius came up with the clever idea to call the restaurant "brush" because instead of a small soy dish to dip your fish in, you get a tiny cup and a tiny brush to coat your fish with. Absolutely ridiculous idea. Not only is it a lame way to put a dab of soy on your sushi, it also contaminates every single piece of fish you touch with the last fish you brushed. As well as your table mates. Hard pass for all of us on this place. Sorry to be so harsh. This was a "one and done" experience.

The interior at Koshu Club is stunning--beautiful, intentional, and incredibly well thought out…read more Nothing feels like it was placed there simply to fill space; every piece seems to have a purpose. The bar is the centerpiece of the room, and it absolutely should be. It's beautiful, and the level of craft behind the cocktails matches the setting. We tried four different cocktails throughout the night, and all were excellent. These are some of the best cocktails I've had in Georgia, easily on par with places like Kimball House and the other great cocktail programs in Atlanta. The wine list deserves recognition as well. It feels developed with purpose rather than simply being a collection of expensive or recognizable labels. There is enough range to pair thoughtfully across the entire menu. We had a bottle of Brunello that was fantastic. On to the food. We ordered every appetizer on the menu except the Wagyu. The sashimi was very good, although I wish there were an option to add real wasabi or freshly grated wasabi root. At this level, I would much rather have that than powdered wasabi. The tuna tartare was also very good, but surprisingly, my favorite part may have been the nori chips. They were absolutely packed with umami. The standout appetizer, hands down, was the caviar service and Caesar salad. I've never had Caesar presented quite this way. It was excellent--savory and full of umami. The accoutrements for caviar were amazing in taste without overpowering the caviar. Very creative and extremely well executed. For the entrées, we tried several of the steaks. The American Wagyu New York strip was flavorful but a little tougher than I expected. We paired it with the bordelaise, which was very well made. The American Wagyu ribeye was much better, and the au poivre was an excellent pairing. Then came the A5 zabuton. I think this cut is going to become one of the best ways to experience Japanese A5 in America. Traditional A5 can almost become too rich when you try to eat a substantial portion. Zabuton, being a shoulder cut, still gives you that incredible A5 richness and flavor, but in a way that allows you to enjoy a heartier piece of meat. This was one of the highlights of the night. The gindara may be the best value on the menu. The portion was generous--essentially enough that it felt like three orders--and it was delicious. We also ordered every side except the green beans. The cabbage was probably my least favorite; as I mentioned to our server, I was a little wary of how saucy it was. The sweet potato preparation was very savory and an interesting way to present sweet potatoes, although it wasn't personally my style. The rice, however, was exceptional--some of the best-prepared rice I've had. You can tell they're using very high-quality Japanese rice and treating something seemingly simple with a lot of care. The miso soup was also notably rich and flavorful. Dessert ended the meal on a high note. Both the cheesecake and coconut ice cream were true stars and absolutely worth saving room for. Service was good overall, but this is probably the area with the most room to improve. We actually didn't realize who our primary server was until later in the meal because they didn't come to the table until quite a bit into the experience. One of our sweet potato sides was also never brought out, although it was removed from the bill without issue. The server assistants were the stars of the service team. They were relaxed, attentive, and helped maintain the atmosphere without making the experience feel stiff. With some additional training around the smaller details and ownership of the table, I think the service could rise to the same level as the food, beverage program, and room. One thing I especially loved was the atmosphere and music. It reminded me of something I loved about Mujo and Chef J. Trent Harris. I once commented on hearing "I Got 5 on It" playing at Mujo, and Trent basically explained that if he's going to be there all day, he's going to listen to music he actually likes. That relaxed confidence carries over here. Koshu Club gets the sound right. You can comfortably have a conversation while still hearing and enjoying the music, and there's definitely some hip-hop mixed in. It feels curated rather than like generic fine-dining background music. Overall, a great experience and some of the more innovative dishes I've had in Atlanta. The room, cocktails, wine program, caviar Caesar, A5 zabuton, rice, and desserts were the standouts for me. There are some service details that can be tightened up, but the foundation here is extremely strong. Koshu Club feels like a restaurant with a clear point of view--and I'm excited to see where they take it.

I was a recent hotel guest at Nobu Atlanta the weekend of May 1-3 and my husband experienced severe food poisoning after a meal he had via in room dining on Friday evening (May 1st). I shared details both in a thread in email with Gustavo Garcia and in the automated survey shared after my stay. The room service for in room dining was charged to my husband's credit card - the total was $276.02 on Friday evening (5/1) I provided this update to Gustavo in person and he immediately questioned if it was due to alcohol, which is an insane response after telling a restaurant GM that your husband got food poisoning. After offering my husband a bottle of ginger ale, Gustavo had promised to follow up via email. After one email of "we are looking into this" there have been zero follow ups. Extremely disappointed in this outcome from a luxury brand restaurant and hotel - If the GM of the Restaurant can please reach out, I'm happy to discuss further.

Tenya Japanese Eatery is one of those hidden gems you'd easily miss if you weren't looking for it…read more Located on N. Decatur Rd. at a very busy intersection, it sits tucked into a tiny shopping center, blink and you will drive right past it. Parking is limited, and you can immediately tell the small lot fills up fast, especially during peak hours. I stumbled upon Tenya while in town on a Tuesday, scrolling Yelp in search of a solid lunch spot, and I'm glad I did. This is a family-owned Japanese eatery that specializes in comfort food, and according to their website, everything is made from scratch, which absolutely shows in the quality. I placed my order online and picked it up with ease. I ordered the Shrimp Saku Saku appetizer along with a fresh garden Tenya salad. The shrimp were excellent, perfectly crispy with a flavorful panko coating that didn't feel heavy or greasy. The salad was impressively fresh and came with their house-made ginger dressing, which paired beautifully with the crisp greens and added just the right balance of sweetness and tang. Inside, the restaurant is quaint and cozy, with a decent amount of seating for its size. The customer service was warm and welcoming; the lady at the counter greeted me kindly and had my order ready shortly after I arrived, making the pickup process smooth and pleasant. A nice bonus is the selection of packaged Japanese snacks and drinks available at the counter, always a fun touch and something you don't see everywhere. Next time, I plan to dine in and explore more of the menu, along with sampling some of those snacks and drinks. Tenya is a great example of simple, thoughtfully prepared food done right. I'll definitely be back.
