We stopped in at 2:30 on a Sunday afternoon. We were the only customers at the time. Our order was taken by a quiet young man, but he was polite. We ordered the Asian Combo hibachi plate and the Scallops hibachi plate. Both came with fried rice, veggies and a side salad with ginger dressing. The scallops were just a little overcooked, but had a fantastic flavor. The shrimp, chicken and steak on the combo plate were equally as tasty. The veggies (zucchini, cabbage, carrots and onion) were great. The fried rice was different than I had ever had. At first I had my doubts as there were no veggies in it, but I was pleasantly surprised. It had a delicate flavor and perfect texture that really complemented the meals. In fact, we ordered extra rice to take home to add some veggies and shrimp to make our own version. It was THAT GOOD! The ginger salad dressing is house made and did not disappoint. Don't pass this place up. Again, it is different than most hibachi restaurants, but different in a good way. We will be back when we are in the Magee area. read more

Service was much to be desired, very rude staff. The food was mediocre. The dining area needs to be updated and cleaned.

Establishment has good parking.. No steamed rice.... only fried. Goyza was ok... I ordered Coconut Shrimp and although there was plenty battered shrimp, there was no coconut on the shrimp or in the sauce. Sauces were bland ... couldn't tell one from the other... the yum yum sauce was not. read more

I was desperately looking for a place to eat near Jefferson Davis County on a Sunday evening and found Atami. This place was pretty darn good! I ordered the tempura shrimp and crab sushi rolls. They were both really delicious and shocked me full! For my entree I had the large chicken hibachi which comes with veggies. I was surprised at how tasty all of the food was! The service was personable and fast! I'd recommend and I'd come again for sure! read more

Not a bad option if you are flying down US49. Not the best sushi I've ever had but certainly not the worst. This is a very fast food experience as it is counter service with no frills. They were short staffed so it took a bit of time to get my order but not so long I wouldn't go back. If you are looking for something outside of the run-of-the-mill fast food chains then give this one a try. read more

We walked in and decided to dine in. I ordered the chicken and shrimp hibachi. Unfortunately this meal was just ok. I did try my cousin sweet & sour chicken and that was good. read more

Great food. Very clean restaurant and friendly staff. Would recommend to anyone looking to try something different

I was pleasantly surprised when my car broke down in Magee, Mississippi and found Atami Japanese Express. It looked just like a Japanese fast food in Osaka, Japan. I got there 10 minutes before closing. I ordered Orange chicken, California rolls, cheese Wontons, and Sushi combo #7. Everything was fresh and delicious. The sushi was really good. So glad to have found Atami Japanese Express in Mississippi. read more

Atami Japanese Express - Walking toward Atami - Japanese Near Me - Magee, Mississippi

We don't dine in much-- most of our orders are to go, and we don't have a lot of variety in our orders. Mostly chicken and rice, habachi chicken, and steak and rice. What we do order is phenomenal. I've yet to find another Japanese restaurant whose hibachi tastes as soon as Atami. read more

Love this place so much great service and they have never got my order wrong it's the perfect date night place!!

Fast, friendly, clean, and absolutely amazing food. I go there often and love the dressing that comes with the salad. The pink sauce is wonderful. The sushi is beautiful. read more

See all

Fantastic food you would not expect at first glance of restaurant. The restaurant is tucked away and almost missed. Once you taste the fried rice with various meat combination plates you're hooked. And the stir fry is wonderful. Really a great deal and great food hidden in this small town. read more

Best sushi in Magee!! Love them!!! Always ready on time. Always priced good and they are al nice! Highly recommend them.

Doesn't appear to be open, stopped by around 5:00, parking lot was empty, I was really craving sushi

Sushi is average, similar to prepackaged sushi. Seaweed salad tastes frozen. Chinese music was playing in the background. THEY CHARGE FOR CUPS OF WATER!! read more

Great sushi and very good price. Got a combo sushi plate #6 and was stuffed after. The place is clean and the good came out fast. I would recommend. read more

Absolutely delicious. I can't believe this place exists in Magee, Mississippi. If you are headed north toward Jackson on 49, it is on your left hand side in an orange building after the Walmart. The HWY 49 speciality roll was so flavorful. We also got the Philly roll and vegetable roll, and they were very good as well. The spicy mayo and yum yum sauce were very tasty for dipping. Friendly staff. I'll be back! read more

Good food for the price. Sushi was very good. Hibachi food had a sweeter taste, not necessarily my preference, but it wasn't bad.

I love the shrimp and scallop hibachi. The chicken and steak(tender)is good as well. The only thing I didn't like was that they don't give a lot of veggies. That's it. Great food. read more

Food is great and service is very good sushi and hibachi are both on.point would reccomend to someone looking for realatively cheap japanese food on the go read more

I would have to say coming from Washington state and all the different Asian flavors and cuisines. Finding a place in Mississippi was surprisingly WONDERFUL!!! I ordered there twice spending over $60 dollars each time to get a taste of everything and when I'm back in Mississippi read more

Good food fast. We tried the edamame appetizer (excellent), crispy shrimp sushi (very good), along with the beef yakisoba and veggie habachi (both good). We even got a couple free eggrolls! I do wish they served on regular plates instead of styrofoam take out containers for dining in, but otherwise a thumbs up. Good choice if you are passing through. read more

I regularly go here for my Asian food that I have been craving recently! I love it and the servers are so nice. It feels like home.

I absolutely love Atami! The food is delicious. The service is friendly and fast. I've ordered there so much they know my voice over the phone and know my order before i give it to them and when i walk in the door they know exactly what im ordering! read more

Service was quick, but just shy of rude. Egg drop soup was gelatinous and lacking flavor. Steamed gyoza Were just ok. Rainbow roll was fairly good. Should have known when I saw Express over the door, but it still surprised me when all my food came out at once in to-do containers on a tray. read more

Excellent food and cheap prices! I always get the California roll with no cucumber and a miso soup and it is always prepared exactly how I ordered it. Love it! read more

We've stopped by here several times over the last few years on journeys between TX and FL... and always enjoyed this surprisingly decent little sushi restaurant in the middle of nowhere. Good food, fresh ingredients, solid service and a great value make this a stop we'll be making again. Cool little place... read more

As small as this place is, they don't cut corners on their food or service. If you order takeout, it WILL be done in five minutes, so make sure to order on your way there. What really surprised me was the variety and quality of their sushi menu. Any of their sushi, from the small California roll to the large and beautifully sculpted Dancing Eel roll is worth getting. They offer raw sushi rolls (I recommend the Pacific and Rainbow rolls) as well as cooked meat (the Dancing Eel and Crunchy Shrimp are some of my favorites). Their Hibachi plates are excellent for takeout, consisting of steak, chicken, salmon, scallops, or shrimp (or a combination of two of these) as well as hibachi cooked vegetables and rice. If you have to be thrifty, you can get their Yakimeshi plates which are like the Hibachi, but with less meat and no vegetables for about 6 - 8 dollars. The also offer standard Asian staples such as egg drop and miso soup. Interestingly enough, they also offer what they call "Japanese Sprite", a variety of several flavors of imported Japanese soft drinks. What they do right: Pretty much everything. Prices are fair. Quick service, great variety of sushi and meats. Everything tastes great and the service is friendly. What they could change/do better: They really need to add to their beverage selection (they have water, Dr. Pepper, Hi-C, Mello Yellow, Sprite, Diet Coke, and Coca Cola), but that is only really an issue if you are dining in. Summary: I've been to quite a few Asian restaurants, but this one really catches my attention as paying close attention to quality. I highly recommend Atami. read more
