    Salmon, Red Snapper, and two types of tuna on a bed of Japanese radishes.

    We have eaten there twice. The Sashimi and Miso soup were excellent. We ended up ordering an additional 3 piece red Snapper Sashimi. The service was great with a wide range of dishes for everyone's palette. Free parking.

    Outside was nice until the resurfacing crew came ! There was the unappetizing smell of asphalt and dust was everywhere! The noise was so loud from the machinery that you couldn't really have a decent conversation. It really kind of ruined my appetite! The management finally came over and put down the clear plastic walls that they normally use for rain when you're sitting outside. In my opinion it should've been used earlier! Although it's not the managements fault they were doing asphalt repair, I do feel that it is the management responsibility to be aware of "environment "that their patrons have to be exposed to . I think the management should've been aware of what was going on in the parking lot and tried to protect the patrons from being exposed to the smell, noise and dust! I divide my reviews into three portions food, service, environment. I would've given this a five star rating had they been more conscientious of the patrons needs. I definitely would have enjoyed my Shannon at Maui sushi and sashimi a lot better! I will consider returning but will call ahead of time to see if sitting outside would be I would be exposed to this type of disturbance!

    Crunch Roll and Big O Roll

    The Basics: Sushi Nami Too is a sushi restaurant located in Sandy Springs. There is interior dining as well as an outdoor patio and bar area. Things I like: I love the sushi from Sushi Nami Too. It has been my go to sushi spot lately. The sushi is always made well and incredibly fresh. Some of my favorite rolls that I have gotten are the Quebec Roll, Mega Crunch Roll, and the 12&69 Degrees Roll. I have also enjoyed their nigiri. I have always been pleased with the sushi I have gotten from Sushi Nami Too. Things I didn't like: Nothing, I have always loved the food here. I cannot speak to dining in the restaurant as I have only ordered takeout from here. Overall, a great restaurant for good quality sushi in Sandy Springs!

    Wicked tuna, tuna sashimi and yellowtail
    Calvin N.

    I have been here many times over the last several years the sushi is always amazing. No surprises tonight as we had a great dinner. We split a few rolls ha I g the wicked tuna, jalapeño crunch lobster and yellow tail as well a few pieces of tuna sashimi all were very fresh and delightful

    (L-R) Skinny Cosmo, Hey King, 12&69 Degrees
    Tracey P.

    I love Sushi and I'm glad I found a new Sushi spot. This was my first time here. They are practicing social distancing so it took a few minutes for me to be seated, since some of the seats were blocked off. The restaurant looked nice, but I'm reading reviews now, and didn't realize there was a more formal restaurant section in the back. I sat at the bar, and there was also an outside section close by. The Skinny Cosmo was tasty! I'm not sure what made it skinny, Lol, but I didn't notice anything different about it. I ordered two sushi rolls: Hey King and 12&69 Degrees. Both rolls were fresh and flavorful. I plan on going back soon to try the lunch menu. Price: $40

    Dumplings
    Jyrki P.

    Absolutely fantastic japanese restaurant. The Bento box was amazing and its main component, beef, was tender, flavorful, and just about perfect. Favorite sushi was also if high quality and full of flavors. The apetizer, dumpligs, were so good, too. Coming back soon.

    Shrimp tempura app and house salad
    Jen S.

    Good quality and good ambience. We ordered the shrimp tempura app which came with three tempura fried shrimp and carrot, zucchini, and pumpkin tempura and two house salads ($3 each in a small bowl). We got the sushi plate for two which came with eight pieces of tuna roll, eight pieces of california roll with eel sauce, two pieces of uni, two sashimi pieces each and two nigiris each of salmon, tuna, and white fish. For two people, this was a very big meal (had to take some leftovers). The salmon was sooo buttery! Our waitress was great and hospitable at checking up on us during the meal as well. I thought it was ample parking but I went around 5:30 so dinner rush hadn't happened quite yet. The food took a while to get though so just be prepared to wait a bit after you order. That should be kind of how it is though if you want everything freshhhhh.

    Sushi Nami is a hidden Gem in Sandy Springs. Bartenders are always friendly and makes great Drinks! Food is always good and the vibe is always Great in there. That Patrons / Customers are so friendly anyone can mingle and have a great time. I will always continue to go here. Sushi is the best here!

    PEI Mussels
    CMR L.

    Quality food. Some of their fish is flown in from Japan. I had an assortment of Nigiri and the PEI Mussels. Everything was fresh and high quality. My server was sweet and attentive as well. I'll definitely come back.

    Came here for lunch and was hoping to be in and out. The food is good but this is not the place if you're looking to grab a quick lunch. Not a knock on the business, but the parking lot is far too small for the businesses that occupy the strip mall (multiple restaurants, barber shop, nail salon, etc.). Good luck finding parking; you may have to circle a few times before grabbing a spot. The bar area is right when you walk in so I'm not sure what the inner part of the restaurant looks like. However, I kind of liked that the bar area was so separate. I was seated at 11:45am and it took the waitress some time to make her way over to me and greet me and offer a drink/menu. After ordering, I didn't get my food until after 12:30pm. To me, that is just far too long of a time lapse (and I only ordered one roll and a side of rice). There were a good amount of people in the bar/covered outdoor area so maybe they should think of having 2 bar backs to cover the lunch rush. I had the Novia Scotia roll and a side of rice. Both were good. I don't think it was my favorite thing that the roll had asparagus but that's not the end of the world. I'd definitely come back because it's nor far from my place and I can get my sushi fix when I need it.

    Jalapeño margaritas
    Emily M.

    This place was awesome! The waiter was super nice. They have indoor and outdoor seating, we sat outside on the covered patio. There's a huge bar. The jalapeño margarita is amazing! Sweet and spicy. The food is delicious. We tried many different items to share which included: a couple sushi rolls, blackened cod, crab legs, coconut shrimp and a salad. Everything was delicious and service was great!

    Jennifer D.

    My husband and I had a wonderful lunch here and I've enjoyed many business lunches as well. The food is consistently good with the menu being extensive but clear and concise. Lunch options are varied and they even offer cooked options for non sushi people as well as a full bar. Spicy tuna is definitely my favorite here.

    So this is reminiscent of a standard hibachi spot. You will come in and either sit at a table or…read moresit at a hibachi station and then they'll get it going for you. This one has been in my area for a minute and I just never thought to try it but one day for lunch I came in. So it is a lot bigger than what it looks like. If you walk in the door. You'll come in from the parking lot, which is free parking and then you'll be greeted by someone at the front or the bar. Now. If you're looking, you can see that their tables deep within the building. So if you come with a large party, this wouldn't be a problem at all for you. You go around the back of the bar. That's where all the hibachi rooms are. They will pretty much be tucked away in back so you can be away from people who are at the regular tables. I sat with some random people during lunch and actually had a good time and good conversation. And the lunch menu prices are pretty reasonable. So the meal will start off with a standard hibachi Soup and salad (creamy dressing) combination. The soup was the onion soup that you would expect. It was okay. Didn't really have anything in it but most part though, barely a mushroom. But it was still okay. Not a salad is different because a salad is not the typical ginger salad dressing you would expect from a hibachi restaurant. This one was more creamy. Even Mayo based. So if you're expecting a ginger salad, this is not it. Volcano roll - The roll was pretty good. It was a really messy role, but it was pretty good. It came with about eight pieces and it was topped with the seafood topping. Which had plenty of favor by the way. Gyoza - Now these were okay. I felt like I had some that were cooked a little too hard. You can get them in an option as steamed or fried and I got mine pad fried but mau were a little more crispy and crunchy than desired. But they still had a pretty good flavor. Actually. I used teriyaki sauce for the dipping sauce for them and it was really good. Chicken and shrimp hibachi - I got the chicken and shrimp with double fried rice. Now. Let me tell you by starting off and saying that you will get a TON of rice. As you can see in one of the pictures, just in itself. The rice is the entire plate (unless you havent eaten all day, you definitely taking something home lol). Benihana's does not give you nearly as much rice LOL. And the toppings I have are standard vegetables. But all the vegetables are good as well. You got a nice amount of those. The chicken, you get a lot of chicken in us cubed and actually really good. The shrimp you get about six of those. Which is fine because you make stand with everything else. I will say that the meal is good but it does need the sauces. I got a yum, yum sauce, a hot sauce, and a Terry sauce on the side. I did some combination of some of those and it set the meal off. I would go back again, it's very convenient to go for lunch. Our chef was really good and friendly and personable, and again, it was a really good price.

    I went here for my birthday and it was the perfect choice for a hibachi celebration! I ordered the…read moreshrimp and chicken hibachi with fried rice. The food arrived with a fun presentation, though I did miss the classic onion volcano. The highlight of the meal was the food itself--the shrimp and chicken were cooked to perfection and had a great sear. To top it all off, the waitress was kind enough to treat me to some sake for my birthday. It was a wonderful dining experience and I'd definitely recommend this spot. The dining area was immaculate, and the elegant decor, including delicate cherry blossom patterns and soft lantern light, made for a truly beautiful hibachi experience.

One of the highlights was the Kimi Oboro, prepared using a 200-year-old vinegar technique -- simply remarkable. My sister loved every dish, even falling in love with the pickled ginger! The service was outstanding as well -- two servers took care of us throughout the evening, always greeting us with genuine smiles and impeccable manners.

The Experience: The menu is huge and well-rounded, offering something for everyone. Despite being our first time, the service was efficient and the pricing felt very fair for the quality and portion sizes provided.

Choose the omakase standard or upgrade to the omakase premium to treat yourself! Located inside the same building as Bishop Apartments, Norifish is the perfect addition to the Dunwoody/Sandy Springs area. Parking was easy in the covered parking deck that is shared with the apartments. It's dark and intimate inside, perfect for small groups. I chose Norifish for my small family birthday dinner and my parents loved it, too. After starting with hot tea ($4 for 4 people), we ordered a few share plates and the omakase petite for $60 per person (unfortunately no longer an option, but it was seriously SUCH a steal). It's missing almost half the items offered in Standard and Premium menus, but since we already selected two orders of Yuzu Ponzu Oysters, Ceviche and the Chu Toro Quail Egg Toast to start, we figured we didn't need that much more, which ended up being accurate. The Yuzu Ponzu Oysters are a MUST and if you love ceviche, be sure to add a share plate portion. The Chu Toro Quail Egg toast is rich and luscious - since it's a little heavy, I would recommend it eating it first as a share plate versus in the omakase. The flavors are so unique and fun compared to the traditional omakases I've tried. My favorite bites were the [salmon] belly rice and the sake aburi. Every bite and dish are beautifully plated and taste as good as they good. Overall, a great dining experience! I will definitely be back next time to try the Omakase Premium, and also hope to stop into the Norifish Sushi & Izakaya Buckhead location again soon!!

    A really good sushi restaurant Korean styled. Whenever we come here, it's always busy. Good to know…read moremy friends know the owner and they always greet us and give us a nice private table pretty quickly. Service is always excellent and the sushi is quite good for Doraville. At times, we do order in advance for take out, and the quality is just the same as if we were eating at the restaurant. Around 6 pm on the weekends, try to make reservation...

    Service? Excellent. Ambiance? Relaxed and enjoyable. Food? Oh...MAN. Wow…read more.. I came here about 8 years ago with the same family members +1 family friend and we enjoyed dinner then, but it truly didn't compare to this visit. Previously, I had Kang Nam slated as an overpriced, but decent sushi place that serves meals on a more robust scale if you're dining with a party. However, the sushi back then was somewhat underwhelming. Last night, we had a phenomenal set. Hamachi, Otoro, Unagi, Ebi, and more! Every piece was delicately balanced and beautifully arranged. Honestly, I wasn't really expecting too much going in- and I'd only chosen Kang Nam as a place where I could get some decent sushi while my family got something else entirely. My mom had Don Katsu (served with a small dish of Japanese style curry sauce). My uncle got the Tempura Udon, of which they served the tempura shrimp on the side in a bed of tempura flakes. This is kind of genius, because you can make the decision on when you want to dip in your tempura instead of them bringing it and you have to down the tempura fast in order to still have it be crunchy... NOT HERE! It stays crunchy since they serve it separately. Love that. We had refillable banchan: kimchi, king oyster mushrooms, and glass noodles- all of which were delicious. We all received bowls of deliciously simple miso soup and we ordered a set of fried dumplings. Everything was great! That is...until the sushi came out. Wow. Presentation: 10/10. Flavor? 10/10. Portion-size: TEN OUT OF TEN, Y'ALL. The sushi rice was fantastic and they didn't use too much like a lot of places do with their nigiri. The toppings were functionally decorative. The sweet shrimp was especially pretty with two different colors of roe on top. The yellowtail didn't need the toppings it had- green onion and fish/squid flakes(?)- in my opinion, but they added a dimension of texture to the initial bite and a hint of flavor to the finish. The fish was perfect in every way: not too thick, no too thin, overlapping the rice by double to allow for perfect soy sauce dips without soaking the rice, and I just CAN NOT EXPLAIN how good each piece was... The sushi rolls were so delicious and every bite had wonderful textures and flavors, but my absolute favorite roll was the one with the smoked tuna on top- WOW! Absolutely stunned. Never - EVER - have I actually tasted the smoke flavor so clearly and completely. I am a HUGE fan of that one and I can't even remember the name of it...it's in the picture on the plate behind the sweet shrimp. The eel nigiri was also a highlight for me- as it's one of my favorite pieces of sushi, I always order several pieces. I was happily surprised to see they were nearly twice the size I get at other restaurants. Hands-down, the best otoro (fatty tuna) I've had in Atlanta. The sushi chef here also believes in giving special service by preparing some extra pieces for the customers as well. I only ordered one set of otoro, but next time....oh my...my bill is gonna hurt next time. Each 2-piece set of otoro is set at $17, so...yeah... It's going to be SO WORTH IT though. I will 10000% be back- soon. I might just get some Otoro, Hamachi, and one of those smoked tuna rolls...man. SO. RIDICULOUSLY. GOOD. Get in there if you haven't been in a while. Trust me!
