Haute Top 5 Best Sushi Restaurants Atlanta in 2017
"Eight sushi may be the new kid on the block, but it is already making waves through the restaurant scene in Atlanta. People are flocking to this Westside sushi for its fresh and contemporary take on sushi dishes. WIth a family in the Japanese food industry, this restaurant is the next step in an evolution of a family owned skill."
"Eight Sushi Lounge on the Westside comes from Lei G Ho, who owns Rice Restaurant and Sushi Bar in Cumming. Expect contemporary takes on sushi here with cocktails, beer, and wine for pairing."
"In a city that likes its sushi joints to have sex appeal (see: Umi), Sushi Hayakawa is a conservative outlier. Set in a strip mall on Atlanta’s Buford Highway, Sushi Hayakawa has simple green walls, a smattering of tables, and a thick wooden sushi bar. Behind that bar is chef Atsushi Hayakawa, his signature red towel rolled around his head, slicing chunks of abalone flown in from Tokyo’s Tsukiji Fish Market."
"Chef Atsushi Hayakawa’s Buford Highway sushi house continues to dominate Atlanta’s sushi scene. Reservations are required and should be made well in advance; especially for those who want to watch Chef Hayakawa prepare dinner himself. The two-and-a-half hour honkaku omakase is a one-on-one, 14-course sushi extravaganza with the chef — a must for any sushi lover."
"Congrats if you're able to reservations at this tiny traditional Buford Highway spot, which seats less than 30 people and fills up weeks in advance. Pro tip: reserve the special "Honkaku Omakase" tasting, a 14-course meal limited to two guests per night prepared by Chef Atsushi Hayakawa himself."
"Japanese Restaurant is one of the least known sushi dens in Atlanta. It may not be as popular as the rest, but the quality of sushi and other Japanese delicacies you find in this place are extraordinary. Their sushi and sashimi menu is extremely rich, featuring favorites such as makimono special, hoki don, tekka don, sake don, unagi don, and sushi and sashimi combination among others."
"Located in Atlantic Station, Sri Thai Kitchen and sushi bar offers a warm and intimate setting. The white fish Miami roll is delicious. Website: Sri Thai Kitchen and Sushi Bar"
"Located in Downtown Atlanta, Pacific Rim Bistro is the perfect place to fulfill your sushi craving. Our favorites are the Zaku Warrior and Firecracker rolls. Website: Pacific Rim Bistro"
"303 Peachtree Center Ave NE, Atlanta, GA 30303 | (404) 893-0018. Here’s what one reviewer says about Pacific Rim Bistro: “Nice decorated place with great vibe!"
"From the team behind Brush Sushi Izakaya, Momonoki takes the formal Japanese dining experience casual in Midtown with an affinity for warming bowls of ramen, cooked and raw sushi bowls, and katsu sandwiches."
"Japanese , Ramen"
"Showtunes, Broadway, Jazz & Easy Listening...Join Us, "Every Tuesday" for a fun filled, relaxing, musical ambiance @... Mixx Atlanta is frequented for the unique music, very friendly staff, and for the electrifying atmosphere. One of the many popular gay clubs of Atlanta, this place has a fully stocked bar, spotlighting, flat-screen televisions, and high-top seating."
"Thomas had a theme, which it technically doesn't, it would fall somewhere in the tropical birds-meet-somewhat crunchy enclosed patio-with-quinoa category. This Peachtree Road institution is decorated with neon lights, plenty or tchotchkis to keep the kiddos entertained, caged, tropical birds, and it's all in a somewhat permanent shed-type lean-to on the border of Buckhead and Midtown. With a huge menu (and seriously—tons of good, healthy options), this spot just works."

"This is one of a kind when it comes to vegan restaurants in Buckhead. R. Thomas’ Deluxe Grill is a 24/7 vegan friendly restaurant that is as eclectic as it is delicious. It is a funky, low key spot to have a great meal in a no fuss atmosphere."
"Located in downtown Atlanta, right across from the historic Martin Luther King Jr. District, is the Thumbs Up Diner. Practically an institution in this area of Atlanta, the diner has been in operation for over a decade and even has five other locations scattered throughout Georgia’s metro area."
"You know: white plates, cheap food, good eats, booth seating, and bustling with customers and servers. This place is CASH ONLY, so keep that in mind!"
"The Terrapin Taproom offers a rotating tap list that includes many of the signature beers that have elevated and defined Terrapin within the world of craft beer since 2002. Fans of the Athens-based brewery can enjoy classic Terrapin brews such as Hopsecutioner, HI-5, Recreation Ale, and Sound Czech Pils, as well as request brews from the onsite microbrewery, The ATL Brew Lab. The Taproom also features the world-famous Fox Bros."
"With a second location in downtown Woodstock and a third location in Smyrna, Canton's Reformation Brewery is building a strong ATL presence. A summer cornhole league sounds fantastic (Woodstock taproom). Reformation brings in food trucks and pairs their delicious craft beer with live music events."
"Located north of Atlanta in Woodstock, Reformation is hidden away in what appears to be an office complex. It’s worth seeking out, as the brewery lets its beers age for three weeks, making for lots of flavor. Get the Stark Porter, made with toasted coconut, if it’s available."
"Even downtown Woodstock has a craft brewery, which recently expanded due to its popularity. Reformation is the best place to pick up a Belgian-style tripel or ale, especially during trivia, comedy and live music nights."
