The spicy tuna crispy rice is extraordinary. The rice is lightly fried, then topped with spicy tuna tartare and jalapeño . The fresh fish , crunch, and spice all swirl into a heavenly bite. Read more

Expect a lot of ppl even on weekdays. Get the avocado starter, tuna tartare , otoro nigiri w/ caviar , and the chocolate bento box (it's better than it looks)! Best sushi in ATL ???? ????

Ito-Kase (Chef 's choice omakase ) at the bar is definitely recommended. Great service and conversation with the chefs and good food. Favorite nigiri : salmon with truffle cream, uni, Wagyu .

#DubiDO #FabuLIST Spicy tuna crispy rice , rock shrimp , preferred black cod over the sea bass , otoro caviar nigiri , shrimp tempura roll , and new page roll. For dessert get chocolate ball and bento box

Such fresh sushi . Loved the nigiri and and the chocolate bento box for dessert with green tea ice cream . Good sake selection too.

Atlanta diners have been mad for Umi Sushi since it opened in Buckhead less than a year ago. Atlanta Journal-Constitution critic John Kessler approves, calling it " a stunning new spot." Read more

As of summer 2013, this place is brand new, and always on a wait, but it's worth it. Amazingly fresh sushi with wonderful textures and flavors. Certified Kobe beef to die for. Great drink selection.

I've been all over the country and this is the best Sushi I've had to date. The selections are brilliant. Try the Scallop appetizer , you will not be disappointed by the taste or the presentation!

The best Japanese restaurant in Atlanta -- there are NO others, trust me! Order the Omakase if you are feeling adventurous or just sit at the sushi bar & what the magestry!

Menu is great ! I have shellfish allergies and they accommodate my need ... looking forward to go again ..

The attention and service is superb and everything we ordered was amazing. The fish was incredibly fresh, just amazing.

NEVER GO TO THIS RESTAURANT! They have weird dress code and keep us from having dinner there, while we then proceeded to CHOPS, a more luxury restaurant , and were seated and served nicely.

I had a great time on my birthday. Fish sauce combos were great. Not much I didn’t like. Snapper potato dish was a little wonky.

This might sound weird, but their pickled ginger is really good! Ginger from other restaurants is too "soapy" and bitter, like Lemon Fresh Joy. Umi's seemed sweeter to me. Excellent!

Omakase ! The only way to go... Sit back relax, and enjoy something that has been reserved for the in the know crowd of NYC has found there spot here in ATL...

So what’s the best way to approach a meal at Umi? You might start as we did with a couple of appetizers from the kitchen. Read more

Each tiny bite-size piece of uni is dry with no traces of oil — a sign of a deft hand — and the flavors all melt together with a quick swipe in the accompanying lemony ponzu sauce . Read more

Their racism is top notch! Will definitely come back for more.

The spicy rock shrimp tempura , typhoon and kamikaze rolls are not to be missed.

Very loud but very good food! They don't let you take home left overs so don't over order like I did!!!

Madai carpaccio . Just do it.

Chef’s selection nigiri is melt in your mouth fresh

Best sushi in Atlanta. Just get everything!

Great food and service, however, waiting an hour for a table when we have a reservation is not up to our standards.

Lobster hot dish is phenomenal

Spent the NYE here! Truly exceptional!

Not that good sushi quality, bet owner is not Japanese. We ordered "toro " but they served "maguro" they trick like this. B careful. Interior is nice if u feel fancy then good place. Not classy

Best sushi I have had in Atlanta by far.

Everything's great here!

The crunch lobster box is AMAZING!

The omakase was so worth it.

Very dark, very loud , and very expensive - but the food is EXCELLENT! Mouthwatering sushi .

Salmon with caviar is awesome!

Amazing. Allow the sushi-ya to select for you.

Self parking in the deck costs $10

The very best sushi in ATL !

Sushi night!!

Ask for Michelle.

Try the specials. WOW!

Use the ToTo bidet, ... I did.

Try sushito peppers

Racist, terrible service. Will only enforce policies towards black people. I do not recommend eating here.

Service is horrible. Forgot to put in food order. Really, really loud . Hung up on when I called to ask where the place is located.

Racist, terrible service. Will only enforce imaginary policies towards black people. I do not recommend eating here.

Nothing. Start with a racist staff .
