Great Izakaya experience, be prepared to wait to be seated if you come late. The room is cozy, with dark wood interior, and you'll feel like you're transported to Japan here. Food is awesome, has a lot of options, small bites are plentiful, you can choose to eat several of those instead of choosing a main course. Their sushi is fresh, ramen is always yummy and we love the various small dishes. Vegetarian will definitely love this place.

It's a very authentic Japanese restaurant in ATL. Good quality of food and various traditional Japanese food along with sake. One thing I didn't satisfied was 2 hours limit per each table due to high volume of customers. Even we reserved the room and spent almost $500 but we only got 30 minutes more.. 😢

The salmon skin salad is to die for — the crispy salmon skin paired extremely well with the salad leaves and the sesame dressing. The tantan ramen was solid, very flavorful. I wished it came with a jammy soft boiled egg.

I wasn’t a big fan of the agedashi tofu, the outside skin was on the mushier side. The grilled meat skewers (chef’s selection) were decent but did not taste like they recently came off the grill.

I loved the ambience of the place. Coming in, you are greeted with the ramen/sushi bar with the chefs cooking in front of you. The antique wooden interior of the back area transported me back to mid-century Japan.

I visited this place for the first time 12/3/24 at approximately 7:30pm, for my daughter’s birthday. The server Shen was great, everything was fine until a roach crawled across the table we were dining at and another roach was located under a water glass we were served. Management was called over to view the roaches. We were only offered an 10% discount on the bill. A $3 debit card/ credit card fee was applied so essentially about $3-$4 was taken off from such an appalling, disgusting, unsanitary ,roach infested dining experience. Roaches cause illness and carry lots of diseases.This was not okay. My family and I had to throughly shake our clothing out upon returning home to ensure we didn’t carry this restaurants bugs .

She didn’t offer us the option of “ frying sweet shrimp head” until we asked about it.

애틀란타 현지 친구가 자주가는 이자카야집. 메뉴가 책일정도로 거의 모든 일식 요리를 하고있다. 친구 최애 메뉴인 연어덮밥은 소스, 버터, 계란이 자알- 어우러진 고급 간장계란밥 느낌이었고 나머지 타코야키랑 치라시동도 신선하고 맛있었다.

조지아 와서 꼭 들려야하는집! 이라기보단 일식땡길때 친구들과 가볍게 한잔하며 얘기하러가기 좋은곳. 일본인분들이 운영하는것같고, 이자카야분위기도 나름 물씬나서 저렴한 가격에 일본 느낌을 소개하기에도 좋다.

While the food here is amazing, the lack of customer service is too horrendous to overlook!

If the color of your skin is too dark, the hostess will overlook you (even as you stand in front of the hostess stand) and help other customers multiple times before you walk out. The hostess will then refuse that she did anything wrong while rudely overtalking another customer bringing this to her attention. The management allows this behavior by not responding to the situation when it is brought to their attention.

Racism is unacceptable, no matter how delicious or authentic the food is.

Lastly didn’t like the fact they did not accept visa gift cards for payments which was strange as well as including a cash vs higher card price for everything. Everyone takes a card these days so very shady they have a price discrepancy like a liquor store…what are they tying to do not pay their taxes lol…there are way better Japanese restaurants for the quality and price so no rush to go back here…

Delicious food, zen atmosphere, but best of all, out of this world service! Let me explain, I ordered sushi rolls for pickup and forgot my receipt (which I needed for expense purposes) so I called and a lady by the name of Seiko (sorry if I got the name wrong) was happy to help. She took down all the information and then texted me a photo of the receipt and called back to ensure that I got it! When it didn't work, she sent it to me by other means. This is the kind of service all establishments should aim for! I'm very grateful 🙏

The bigger our table the worse our experience got. I reminded the server one of our dishes hadn't come out multiple times, with him relaying the kitchen arguing that they'd sent it out.

I'm sure they were correct, but that food definitely didn't reach out table. The kitchen then accused us of one of our table having eaten it. We hadn't as it never reached us.

We paid well over 400 dollars and this is the service we were receiving. Nothing against our server. Two tiny skewers of chicken won't break the restaurants back either way, so why argue?

Suffice to say I probably won't be coming back. Which is a shame as the food is exceptional

Having been to Japan, the menu was pretty authentic and gives people an opportunity to try Izakaya menu staples that you wouldn't find at your typical sushi or ramen restaurant in Atlanta. I like restaurants that have small dishes you can try, and this restaurant allows you to try a lot of different flavors. I'd recommend trying the yakitori, okonomiyaki and the BBQ eel as those are menu items hard to find elsewhere in the are and they were all delicious. The atmosphere also is really cool and feels like a true family style Japanese restaurant, with a sushi bar to boot.

I tried the Beef Tongue, Salmon Ochazuke, Salmon Onigiri, and the Tempura Ice Cream. Everything was perfectly cooked and prepared. The selection on the menu is amazing too, there's so many things I wanted to try! My table mates ordered the Kushiyaki Skewer Plate, the Spicy Kimchee Miso Ramen, the Tako Sunomono, and the Wonton Cheese Agé, all of which tasted delicious and were served beautifully. The service was fantastic, our servers were all very kind and checked on us frequently, and all of the food came out relatively quickly, despite being busy on even a Monday night. The atmosphere was great and I really love the interior of the restaurant. I highly recommend this restaurant to any fans of authentic Japanese cuisine!

Awful awful service, story time:

We came to Atlanta from out of town and were really excited to try this restaurant. We arrived at 9:25 on a Sunday and were told that the kitchen is closing. Confusing because their online closing time says 10:30… we decide to come in regardless and being as considerate as we could we rushed to put in our order within seconds.

We continued trying to be extremely nice to our server out of kindness and were met by multiple snarky comments like ‘i already cleaned everything’ and being told ‘kitchen has already closed!’ when i was simply looking at the menu out of curiosity because we been so rushed in the first place to order that I didn't get to truly look at anything. god forbid i decide to come back after feeling so unwelcome.

After all this we were the first to leave among other customers who were there before us and had the door locked on us immediately after stepping outside. Mind you this is at 10:00 still 30 minutes before closing time.

I highly recommend this business change their operating hours if this is how quest will be treated when arriving an hour before closing time. Honestly would’ve preferred to be turned away at the door, than to have had our night ruined by the rudeness we experienced. Food was incredible and i hate to see it ruined by such awful service.

Published a year ago

We arrived an hour and a half before they were scheduled to close and the kitchen was already closing… our server was immediately rushing us to order something and we had no time to even look over the menu and he just gave us his recommendations to order from. On top of that his demeanor was very unprofessional and my ONE very basic question “does this beer come in a can?” was met with unwarranted sarcasm, sassy and irritated facial expressions and just overall rudeness. I understand being in a hurry to leave, but it especially rubbed me the wrong way because I was being very polite. Overall, the food was close to authentic but the service ruined the entire experience.

The service was great and there was only a 15 minute wait for two people. Once we sat down and ordered, the food came out quick as it was ready and not all at once which I liked. The only awkward experience was sitting down in the waiting room because you're so close to the bathroom doors.

Sukiyaki Udon 10/10. Fish broth went great with the beef and egg. The soup wasn't too oily so it went down and didn't weigh down my stomach.

Dishonest staff!! Overcharged us !! We paid a $300+ take out order with $290 cash and $16 on a credit card. They charged us the entire total with a credit card surcharge $20+. This is unacceptable and dishonest! We caught the deliberate overcharge and confronted the staff. I cannot trust this store anymore and WILL NOT RETURN!

The best, most authentic Japanese restaurant in Atlanta. Just about everything on the menu is excellent

Absolutely wonderful!!!!
Uodate: came in for a 2nd time and service was sub par ... when I asked if I could just buy some lettuce ginger dressing the option was non given nor entertained. I am highly disappointed.

The food isn't the absolute best you can get, but the prices are reasonable and the drinks are good, and the atmosphere is better than Yebisuya. Overall, not a bad pick.
