    jalapeno lobster roll - made with an actual lobster
    Tina T.

    There are actually several types of food I like to get at Sushi Nami: Sushi and Sashimi Bento Boxes Noodles Not to say they have a bunch of other sections such as donburi, fried rice, cold noodles, small plates, teriyaki plates, and even a section called "I don't like raw stuff" which has things like tempura lunch, fish and chips, tonkatsu and more! I recommend 12 and 69, Big O, Jalapeno Lobster (actually made with an entire lobster), The River, Tommy Sunset, Up the Stream and Wicked Tuna. I always enjoy Sushi and Sashimi plate for when I just straight up want sashimi, and then I do recommend the Nabeyaki udon noodle soup (with added egg) it is just the perfect dish when it's cold out. Last but not least the bento boxes are huge and the salmon, beef, and chicken are all tasty. You have the option to sit inside vs outside, the outside is light and nice in the warmer months, and the inside is a darker vibe, probably good for a date. I have to take off a star though because service can just be SUPER slow here.

    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!

    (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

    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

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Menu

    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.

    Mikata is a fantastic spot for Sushi and Japanese cuisine. While in Atlanta I was craving sushi…read moreand Mikata was walking distance from my hotel so a few friends and I decided to give it a try. Boy are we glad we did! The atmosphere is upscale and modern, with elegant decor and tall ceilings with tons of light. The plating and silverware is also spot on. I ordered a tako nigiri and a Mikata sushi tower with spicy tuna and real crab in it. The presentation was gorgeous and the dishes tasted as good as it looked. I had a virgin lychee martini to go worth the meal and I left very satisfied. I'll definitely be back when visiting Atlanta

    I've visited Mikata Sushi twice now, about two months apart, and I have quite a few thoughts! There…read morewere definitely some highlights, but a few things left me underwhelmed. Let's get into it! Yellowtail - 6/10 If you know me, you know yellowtail is MY FISH! I absolutely love yellowtail, and honestly, I enjoy it in just about any presentation. However, something about this one was a little off for me. The cuts were noticeably thicker than what I typically prefer. The flavor was there, but the overall appearance and color of the fish didn't give me the same quality impression I've gotten from other yellowtail experiences. What makes this more interesting is that I ordered it on BOTH visits, and unfortunately, I had the same impression each time. I wanted to love it because yellowtail is easily one of my favorite fish, but it just wasn't giving what I'm used to. Steak Fried Rice - 7/10 WOWWW! This was probably the biggest surprise of the entire experience. This is some of the best fried rice I've had in a WHILEEEE! The flavor profiles were EVERYTHING. I could actually taste the individual ingredients, but somehow everything came together beautifully. You know when a song comes on and every single beat hits exactly where it's supposed to? That's how this fried rice tasted! Now, why the 7/10 instead of higher? THE YUM YUM SAUCE. I honestly feel like it did more harm than good. The sauce had more of a mayonnaise-like taste, and I felt it took away from what was already really good fried rice. I wish I had ordered it without the sauce the first time around. I actually regret not getting it on my first visit, but I'm so happy I finally tried it on my second! Shrimp Tempura - 5/10 This one was pretty forgettable. The shrimp was very crispy, which I appreciated, but the ponzu sauce it came with threw off the overall flavor for me. Something about the combination just didn't quite come together. The flavor wasn't fully there, and while it wasn't necessarily a bad dish, it definitely wasn't something I'd go back specifically to order. Nothing particularly memorable. Margarita Roll - 10/10 YESSSSS! NOW THIS IS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT! As a YELLOWTAIL LOVER, this roll understood the assignment! This is a raw roll, and the fish was SO flavorful. Everything about this roll worked for me. The flavor, the overall experience, just everything! I ordered this on BOTH visits, and both times it delivered. That's how you know it's good when you come back and immediately order the same thing again. Easily my favorite item at Mikata. If I returned, this would absolutely be on my order again. My Spending First Visit: * Margarita Roll * Yellowtail * Total: $50 Second Visit: * Shrimp Tempura * Yellowtail * Steak Fried Rice * Margarita Roll * Total: $80 Service & Overall Experience - 6/10 Now, let's talk about service because this definitely impacted my overall experience. First Visit: I'd honestly give the service a 0/10. My waiter took an extremely long time to bring out my dishes, and my yellowtail was slightly warm by the time it arrived. Second Visit: I sat at the sushi bar, and I believe one of the managers assisted me. The difference was noticeable! Not necessarily because he was a manager, but because he was attentive. You can literally see the food coming out on the sushi bar, and he actually took the time to pay attention and make sure my dishes made it to me. During my first visit, my waiter would see food come out, walk right past it without saying anything, and head back into the kitchen. I noticed that same lack of attentiveness again during my second visit. It wasn't a matter of the restaurant being too busy; it was a matter of someone taking the time to pay attention to their customers and the food coming out. I really appreciated the assistance during my second visit because it made everything move much faster. Final Thoughts Overall, I'd give Mikata a 6/10. The Margarita Roll was a 10/10 experience, and the steak fried rice was a pleasant surprise. However, the yellowtail consistency and service definitely brought down my overall rating. Would I return? Possibly! But I already know exactly what I'm ordering: that Margarita Roll!

    Came here for a Sunday Hibachi dinner and we were seated right away. The Hibachi tables are in a…read morelong, enclosed area, which gives each table a bit more of a private feeling. The chef did a good job entertaining us, and the food portions were generous. The hibachi itself was very tasty, although the soup and salad were soso as is common for hibachi. They also served the soup and salad at the same time which I found a bit odd.

    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.

The ordering is a little clunky- there's a menu book but it seems they prefer you to use the iPad to order. And, there must have been instances where people were unhappy about what they typed in and were ultimately served because the server comes over to confirm what you ordered. And there is a delivery robot but it brings out the food and the server takes it off the robot tray and hands it to you. The robot gets close to your table but not within your reach. My last point would be that there is a small string of Christmas lights wrapped around a plastic stand on your table. If you need your server, you are to turn the lights on- there's written directions explaining this to you. BUT at noon, it is as bright as the bulb of an overhead projector so it is somewhat undetectable to the server. I suspect it is a better system at night. Again, good food, just not a smooth of serving.

Like a lot of other omakase places the restaurant was a little hard to find since it's pretty much just a door with a small sign and a couple of windows. The service there was phenomenal and I loved the variety for dishes! We had the 17 course meal for $242/person after taxes and tip, which was a little expensive but seemed fair for Atlanta. We started with some apps and my favorite was the oysters. Then most of the courses were various nigiri and ofc my favorites were the fatty tuna and eel. I also really liked the uni even though I usually don't! The presentation for everything was gorgeous and some of the sushi was pretty unique with the flavor pairings. Dinner ended with a small sorbet as dessert and my mom and I were both stuffed. I'll definitely be back for a special occasion :)

The 15-course menu was a masterpiece from start to finish. Each piece felt like art -- stunning presentation followed by incredible flavor.

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. This was probably the best omakase experience I've ever had -- and I've had over a hundred. I'm so glad my sister's first omakase turned into an unforgettable memory. Huge thanks to everyone who served us last night. Highly recommend this place to both first-timers and seasoned sushi lovers alike!

I CAN tell you the ramen and sushi is solid. I have had several types of ramen and sushi and they have never disappointed. The sushi always seems fresh and freshly made. The ramen is flavorful and filling. Service is good, I like the ring the bell model where you aren't being pestered by the server and they aren't wasting their time. I have never been to Japan but I bet the restaurant's atmosphere with areas you take your shoes off would fit right in. Always happy when our nephew picks this place for his birthday dinner.

The short, thin hostess at the front repeatedly rolled her eyes behind our backs while seating us. I didn't notice it at the time, but our friend pointed it out towards the end of our meal, and it left a very negative impression. Our server was also inattentive. He checked on nearly every table around us multiple times but rarely came by ours. We ordered over $150 worth of food for just the two of us, yet received very little service. Despite that, we still left a 20% tip. Unfortunately, the food was disappointing as well. A lot of the food arrived cold. The quality and taste were nowhere near as good as what we remembered from previous visits. After giving this restaurant multiple chances, we can confidently say we will not be returning.

    If you're staying in Dunwoody area, this is a must visit! It's a hand roll/coffee/bakery/sushi…read moremarket/souvenir shop all in one! Tucked on the corner of a new multi-use high rise apartment complex. Stop in during Happy Hour and got great deals on their apps, Temaki creations ('sushi tacos') and wines by the glass. They have HH Wed & Thurs 2-7pm. I appreciate a nice long happy hour! What I ordered: Wine by the Glass Muscadet, a French wine perfect if you want a bone-dry, light wine to pair with your meal. Garlic black pepper edamame Just the right amount of seasoning not overpowering. Freshly cracked black actually gives it a little kick! Crispy Spicy Tuna Jalapeno, cilantro, rice pearls - full of crunch and spicy kick! Crab & Scallop shiitake, garlic, spiced aioli, rice crisp American Wagyu garlic Black Pepper soy, chili ponzu slaw - soft and tender Yellowtail + Salsa Fried leeks bursting with crunch and a drench of fresh salsa was so refreshing! (Wasn't on the HH but well worth it and was reasonably priced at $8) Salmon + Cucumber A classic with crunch Taiwanese chicken nuggets These brings me back to the 'popcorn chicken' at the boba shops in the bay. I recommend to ask for a dip for a fun flavor profile to complement it! Beautiful ambiance and aesthetic! Service was welcoming and attentive. Sit at the Temaki bar for an immersive experience with the sushi chef preparing it fresh right in front of you. If you have more time, visit their cafe (connected inside) and their cute gift shop with cute Japanese tableware and other little trinkets.

    WOW. A+++, home run…read more The atmosphere is cool and the service was warm and welcoming. Food was absolutely delicious. Service was beyond the beyond. I went for lunch with an old friend visiting from out of town. We were absorbed in conversation, and then noticed our food was taking a while. When we flagged someone down and mentioned this, the entire staff flew into efficient fix-it mode. Our food was out in minutes, as the manager explained they'd had an Internet issue. Talk about fixing a minor problem instantly! Hugely professional. I'll be back for sure.

    This place is incredible. I wouldn't have expected sushi like this for Atlanta. Highly recommend…read moreomakaze tasting menu. The fish was incredibly fresh and paired nicely with each dish. Fresh wasabi ( ) so so so good. If you're in the area (or not), definitely come here. You won't regret it.

    I've been to Nori Fish twice now, and I have to say, the food here is GREAT! We did the Premium…read moreOmakase, and honestly, the price wasn't too bad for what we got. For me personally, I prefer a little less sauce on my nigiri. To each their own because everyone has different tastes, but I like being able to really taste the freshness of the fish instead of having it overly seasoned or covered in sauce. BUT NOW... those small dishes are what's going to keep me coming back! That chutoro tartare on the bread with the quail egg was BOMBBBB! I could've eaten like four of those! Y'all know I'm a big back! The salmon tostadas were a HUGE hit too! They were definitely not stingy with the portions. They loaded that chip UP! And I almost forgot about the soup that came at the end! HEAVENNNN! It was so savory and packed with flavor. It was the perfect way to wash down all that raw fish you just ate. The drinks were good as well. Overall, Nori Fish is such a cute spot for a date night. The service was great, and everyone was very attentive. You can really tell the staff works well together as a team. From the servers to the chefs, everyone had their assigned duties and everything flowed really well. Next time I come, I definitely want to sit at a table and try some of the other things off the menu. We didn't get to try everything because we got FULL from the Omakase! Overall, I really enjoyed my experience and would definitely come back to explore more of the menu!

    Parking in the lot but can get packed during peak hours…read more Excellent service. Great place for special occasions or just casual meal. They have private rooms and regular dining room seating. Weekday lunch bento box special (11am-3pm) is a great deal and comes with a lot of food. Personal favorite is the Kalbi (short ribs) box. The Kang Nam Junsik A combo is a great deal too and gives so many courses. Feels like the food just keeps coming. They always end your meal with a complimentary ice cream!

Located on Buford highway just OTP Kang Nam has a nice building and spacious parking lot. Walk in and you are greeted quickly and shown to a table. There are also curtained booths for privacy. The menu is extensive. The lunch specials are excellent. I ordered the sashimi box, Betsy had a couple rolls. Both came with miso soup and a salad. The box also came with three veggie side dishes that have a name but I am not looking it up sorry. My box had some udon soup that was ok, a delicious roll, 12 slices of fish, a couple eggs, come eel, some tempura, and a crab stick. It was all fresh tasting and delicious. The yellowtail was especially good, I dont always like yellowtail. All of this for only $26 I think is awesome. I will be back!
