Buckhead Roll
Mary Kathryn S.

We went to Yuka for my boyfriend's birthday this year. It was surprisingly not busy on a Saturday night. I would rate this place 3/5 because it's a bit pricy. We ordered the chicken dumplings and ordered the Buckhead Roll and I forgot the name of the other roll. I'm not much of a sushi gal, but it was pretty good! We also ordered once chicken and one steak hibachi. The white rice was only able to be ordered on the side and they did not have fried rice. The service was mediocre simply because our server wasn't the friendliness with us, but she seemed to enjoy the table across from us. Probably going to be a once a year type of place.

I ate in for my birthday last year, and it was a large group but the restaurant was pretty quiet. I was the last person to get my food, and I'm talking like half of my party was DONE eating before I got it. Other tables that were seated after we ordered got their sushi before I did. And then I just received a roll at a time, which isn't the end of the world, but I like to eat from each roll and compare / go back and forth. I shared four rolls with a friend - Georgia Crunch, Salmon Tempura, Energy, and Braves. I thought Georgia Crunch was just alright. Salmon Tempura roll was pretty spicy and very good. The Energy was very yummy and the Braves was really good, just note that it's five very large pieces (circumference-wise). My gf got a hibachi dish which she said was different then any hibachi she's had but enjoyed it. It didn't come with enough rice though. A couple weeks ago, I figured I'd give them another chance and ordered takeout. I got the Alaskan and Hawaiian rolls. They were both ok, very fresh but kind of bland. They didn't give me the spicy mayo that comes on the Hawaiian roll, which was very disappointing. Also one is listed as having "crab stick" and the other "crab meat," but they both came with crab stick. If a roll has crab stick in it, that's what should be listed! Even if that's what's meant by crab meat, they should be consistent when listing what's in each roll. My gf got the same hibachi dish, and it was fine but they only gave her a tiny scoop of rice. There is no reason to skimp on rice! The prices are comparable to other sushi spots but I don't think I'm going to go back again.

Stopped by on a Saturday evening and it was pretty quiet. The menu has lots of options for sushi rolls, noodles, rice and more. I decided to get the Sake Don, which is 7 piece marinated salmon with rice. It was fresh and tasty, but had more rice than needed. I left feeling pretty full and prices are average.

Miso soup
Elizabeth D.

Very yummy sushi restaurant! I ordered the dragon crunch roll and throughly enjoyed the flavor of the eel paired with the avocado, sweet soy sauce and cucumber! My favorite roll hands down. The service is quick and efficient. And it's pretty small restaurant with dim lighting, great for a romantic dinner or just intimate conversations. There's street parking.

Chicken Teriyaki Bento box with bluefin tuna roll and nigiri
Chandrika R.

Had a late lunch at Yuka Sushi today that was amazing! I got the chicken teriyaki bento box which came with miso soup, ginger salad, chicken teriyaki, white rice, blue fin tuna roll, 3 pieces of nigiri, shrimp and vegetable tempura, 1 gyoza, cucumber salad, Korean fried chicken, and fresh orange. All this for $30.16 with tax and every piece was delicious! The restaurant is cute, decorated with Japanese flowers and paper lanterns. The cocktail and wine menu look nice, and the staff was friendly and attentive. Highly recommend and will definitely be back!

Baked Salmon Roll
Kerstin T.

Been here twice now for lunch and I seem to stick to what I know it's good. I always get the salmon baked roll and it's to die for. Absolutely delicious! Every. Time. I tried the miso soup and did not like it one bit so that's a hit or miss. The restaurant itself is really cute and love the real/fake trees inside!

My friend and I went around 6 for dinner here and it was empty, but the music was so nice. They had a lot of hit songs and I loved it. It was so pretty as well, I really enjoyed looking at the flowers and decorations. The service was great! Multiple people checked on us and it made the experience feel welcoming. I loved that they kind of let us make our own sushi without sticking to one specific roll. This place was very affordable, the rolls were freshly made and I believe they are always! 10/10 would love to have a birthday here!

We popped in for a quick dinner after a nice workout, and we were looking for something refreshing, healthy, and satiating. This restaurant hit the SPOT. We could not recommend it enough. Get the fire crunch roll for the adventure of a lifetime.

Double Double Roll
Karen C.

I enjoy getting takeout from Yuka, and my go-to is the Alaskan roll - the salmon is fantastic. While some of their unique rolls didn't quite hit the mark for my taste, I recognize that's a personal preference. The sushi is a bit on the pricier side, but it aligns with Sandy Spring area prices. My husband and I always drop at least $80 for our meals. Overall, a reliable choice for a sushi fix.

Paula S.

the sushi rolls have been my favorite every time I visit here. I also like the atmosphere and staff is friendly.

Helena M.

Such an amazing interior in this place! Located in Sandy Springs, the area offers valet parking but there's free parking in the garage for 2 hours. The waiters were very friendly and knowledgeable in the menu which I love cause I'm always indecisive. Settled on the Buckhead Roll which was soooooo good 10/10! The shrimp tempura was cooked well and the eel tasted very fresh and I love that especially when eating raw fish. Similarly, the bluefin tuna maki roll was fresh as well! This was my first time (knowingly) ordering a maki roll and it won't be my last. The maki rolls were relatively inexpensive too going for $7-$12 for 6 pieces which I can't complain. Maki rolls are easy to add to their other rolls with out breaking the bank. Overall, loved it here and will definitely be back!

Fish is so fresh! Love the sweet shrimp! You have to order it! The Bento box is great value!
Fei S.

A lovely place! Fish is so fresh! Love the sweet shrimp! Service is great! They give us salmon belly nigiri for free!! We will definitely come back again!

Sushi regular ($21.99) -- pretty good
Jen S.

Ordered the sushi regular (5 nigiri, 6 piece salmon roll, miso soup) for take out. It was prepped quickly and the person that greeted me was very kind and polite. The sushi regular was pretty good ($21.99+tax+tip). Fresh, sizable, and well laid out. The rice was a litttttle stale but can't complain really. They packed a bag of ice to keep everything fresh. I obviously didn't stay in but I've eaten at Yuka before and the ambience is nice. The decor is pretty with fake trees inside and dark wood for tables.

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!

My older sister came from out of state and had never experienced omakase before. After researching…read moremany omakase restaurants, I chose Omakase by Yun because my first visit there was truly memorable -- and once again, they exceeded all expectations. The 15-course menu was a masterpiece from start to finish. Each piece felt like art -- stunning presentation followed by incredible flavor. Every bite melted in my mouth, and the balance between the rice, the fish, and their special secret sauce was perfection. 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!

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 :)

Firstly, I want to share that I have celiac disease--a serious medical gluten allergy--as well as a…read moredairy allergy. Because of this, dining out, especially at a buffet, always felt nearly impossible to me. Nori Nori completely changed that perception. My first interaction with the restaurant was a phone call to ask whether they offered tamari. The hostess was incredibly courteous and immediately reassured me that they did. When I arrived, I was warmly escorted to my table, and the Chef/Owner--who I believe held both roles--personally came over to guide me through the menu items I should avoid. She also explained that many dishes could be prepared gluten-free and dairy-free so I could enjoy them safely. That level of care and attentiveness was both comforting and genuinely touching. Now, onto the food... They offered veggie and salmon rolls, refreshing cold salads, and hot dishes such as Oriental Fish, steamed snow crab legs, seasoned scallops, and some of the fluffiest white rice I've had in quite some time. At one point, I had a question about a particular dish, and before I could even worry, the Chef was right there to help. She kindly steered me toward another wonderfully fragrant option that was safer for me to enjoy. Her attentiveness felt incredibly sincere--like someone truly invested in making sure I had both a safe and memorable dining experience. That small gesture meant more to me than I can fully express. Living with dietary restrictions means that something as routine as choosing a meal can be emotionally exhausting and potentially dangerous without constant vigilance. To make the experience even more thoughtful, the restaurant also provided plastic gloves so I wouldn't need to touch shared tongs or surfaces. Since I can react to contact with gluten-contaminated surfaces, this extra precaution made me feel genuinely cared for. And finally, dessert: sliced honeydew, cantaloupe, and CHERRY JELLO! It was the perfect ending to such a thoughtful, safe, and genuinely delicious dining experience. I can't wait to return again!

The restaurant is very nice, the decor is super cute, and the service was great! I've been seeing this place CONSTANTLY pop up on my Instagram, so since my daughter is on fall break, I said, "Let's go try it out!" We started with their $19.99 lunch special and the Wagyu Udon Soup. Both were just okay to me. The Wagyu Udon Soup wasn't really my favorite. The broth had a fishy taste and little pieces of salmon in it, which just didn't sit right with me. Fish broth with Wagyu? The Wagyu itself was also surprisingly chewy and tough. For $19.99, though, I thought the lunch special was a pretty good deal and the portion was reasonable. It came with: * 3 Temaki -- Shrimp Katsu, Salmon Cucumber & Yellowtail Jalapeño * Crispy Spicy Tuna Maki * Taiwanese Chicken Nuggets * Cucumber Salad * Cookie Our favorites were definitely the Crispy Spicy Tuna Maki and Yellowtail Jalapeño! The salmon was a little dry for me and had a vinegary taste. I felt like it could've used a little more seasoning. Of course I wasn't done yet, so I ordered three more temaki: American Wagyu, Crab & Scallop, and Toro Uni. The Crab & Scallop was SUPER delicious and packed with flavor! But that Toro Uni Temaki?! Soooo good! The toro was soft and buttery, and everything just melted together perfectly. This was probably my FAVORITE thing I ordered! We also got a Strawberry Matcha Latte, and that was really good too! It had that nice, authentic matcha taste without being overly sweet. Overall, there were definitely some hits and misses for me, but the temaki especially the Crab & Scallop and Toro Uni were the stars of the meal! I'd come back just for those!
