Bishoku is easily one of my favorite Japanese restaurants in the Atlanta area. I live in Roswell, and I never hesitate to make the drive to Sandy Springs because it is absolutely worth it. The quality of the sushi is outstanding. You can tell they use premium, high-grade fish, and everything is incredibly fresh. My personal favorite is the uni, which is always excellent. The specialty rolls are amazing as well. The Terry Roll is fantastic, and the Jackie Roll is absolutely out of this world. Every roll I've tried has been beautifully prepared and full of flavor. The appetizers are just as impressive as the sushi, making it easy to enjoy a full dining experience from start to finish. Whether I'm dining alone, meeting coworkers, or catching up with friends, the food is always consistently exceptional. The service is another reason I keep coming back. Jackie and the entire staff are friendly, attentive, and genuinely care about providing a great experience. The owner is wonderful and has created a restaurant that truly stands out. There is plenty of parking, and while you can sometimes walk in, I highly recommend making a reservation because Bishoku is often busy for good reason. If you're looking for fresh, high-quality sushi, excellent service, and a welcoming atmosphere, Bishoku is a must-visit. Highly recommended! read more

We have been going to the Bishoku restaurant for over 15 years; It's where we go for the freshest, tastiest Japanese food around town! But, it's not just the food we keep returning for. The wait staff extends themselves to make sure you receive your order soon and then returns to ask how it is and if you would like something more... another dish, a complimentary dessert with your meal, or another beverage. We always feel like we are special guests there! It's clear by both the food and the sevice that they've been successful doing just that! read more

This sushi spot has become so much more than just a restaurant for me, it feels like a second home. From the moment you walk in, you're welcomed like family, and that genuine hospitality keeps me coming back again and again. The sushi rolls are consistently fresh, creative, and absolutely delicious. Whether you're a sushi lover or trying something new, there's always something amazing on the menu. They also offer a wonderful wine list or cocktails that pair perfectly with the meal. What truly sets this place apart is Jackie the owner. She goes above and beyond to make sure every guest has a great experience, and her kindness shines through in everything she does. As a parent, it means so much to see how attentive and caring she is toward my child. She always takes the time to make sure my son feels welcome and comfortable, which makes dining out such a positive experience for our whole family. Great food, amazing drinks (love her Cosmos) and even better people! This is the kind of place that turns first-time guests into lifelong customers. read more

My all-time favorite sushi restaurant in Atlanta! I feel special every time I come to Bishoku. Each time I go, I meet new "regulars" that have been coming to Bishoku for years. There is quite a following of customers here, and there are many reasons why! Jackie (owner) pays attention to every last detail - from a fabulous wine selection, amazing specials, great service, and a very attentive staff. The crispy rice cakes and Jackie roll are my favorites! I would highly recommend giving Bishoku a try! read more

No wonder this place won the best restaurant in Sandy Springs! The food is awesome. The staff is great. Incredible service. Ignore the one star review that was posted recently (5/24/26). That exchange never happened. You should probably be aware of who is sitting nearby before you post nonsense, and when you cause a scene other diners notice. Bishoku hasn't even been open for 20 years and that isn't the only part of what she wrote that is untrue. Take that review with a grain of salt. Those who were there that night will tell you a very different story of what really happened. If you want fantastic service and amazing food, I highly recommend this restaurant. I have been going there for 11 years and have never had less than a 5 star experience. I think the diverse crowd there would agree with me. The crispy rice cakes are an amazing starter and if you let the chef choose your sushi for the night, you will never be disappointed. read more

We love this place! Food is fresh and expertly prepared, which is quite a treat since we don't live on the coast! Jackie and her team are very responsive without hovering when serving a table. One of our favorite places to eat and a star in Sandy Springs! Thank you for many delightful experiences at your restaurant, Jackie. read more

I have been a loyal customer of Bishoku for more than 20 years, which makes my experience last night especially disappointing. My boyfriend and I had a reservation and requested a specific table. When we arrived, the restaurant was only partially occupied, yet we were seated elsewhere. From the moment we walked in, the owner's attitude toward us felt unwelcome. She appeared annoyed when we asked about our reserved table and rolled her eyes during the interaction. After being seated, it took an unusually long time for anyone to take our order. We were also asked in a dismissive manner whether we were ordering drinks. When our food arrived, the portions appeared noticeably smaller than dishes being served to other tables around us. The most upsetting part of the evening occurred when the bill arrived. The owner approached us and questioned why the tip was low. When my boyfriend honestly explained that we felt unwelcome from the start and were unhappy with the service, the owner became loud and confrontational. During that conversation, she repeatedly told us that we were not welcome there anymore and stated that nobody at the restaurant wanted to serve us. After more than two decades as a customer, I was shocked and embarrassed by the way we were treated. I left feeling humiliated and deeply concerned that my boyfriend, who is Black, was treated differently because of his race. I have also noticed other reviews expressing similar concerns. I cannot recommend a restaurant where long-time customers are treated this way. read more

Bishoku is easily my favorite sushi restaurant in and around Atlanta.

Absolutely love this local sushi spot! Jackie and her team always deliver the best experiences! I have a soy allergy and Jackie has no problem accomplishing the impossible and delivering fresh sushi to me soy free! While the scene can be a little energetic and busy they always deliver great service and sushi! Highly recommended! read more

Had a lovely solo dinner here on a Saturday night. The restaurant was full, but the staff was super friendly and attentive. I sat at the sushi bar and watched the chef carefully prepare the sushi orders. They also have a full menu of kitchen appetizers and cooked options. I ordered the miso eggplant appetizer. It was a lot for one person, but was definitely tasty. I think it would make a delicious entree with rice as well. I had the Chirashi for my entree. The presentation was beautiful, and the fish was fresh and delicious. They give a complementary dessert of your choice, and I had the house made chocolate mousse. It was the perfect bite to end the meal. I will definitely be back! read more

Oh my goodness! Everything was amazing-- service, ambiance , and especially the food! We had been there once before on a busy weekend night- without reservations-- and the staff found l us a lovely table without rushing us in the process. Bishoku is a gem: the waitstaff is lovely and so helpful! The second time we came, we asked our server for her suggestion for an appetizer, and she informed us that "hands down" their most popular dish was the tuna and salmon with roe over crispy rice cakes. This dish is --wow!! I'm still thinking about what an epic combination of flavors it is: sweet and savory, crunchy and silky. It is also a work of art. (See below ) The other entrees and soups were delicious as well, including a simple miso presented in a wooden bowl which , my husband pronounced, was "the best miso soup " he'd ever had. The sushi was fresh and beautifully presented, as was the soft shell crab entree. This time we had no dessert, but the staff offers a free small sweet dessert and the end of the meal. Can't wait to go back-- and bring our friends!! read more

Bishoku - Crispy rice with spicy tuna and salmon--an epicurean delight!! - Sushi Bars Near Me - Sandy Springs, Georgia

This restaurant has been named the best in Sandy Springs. I really can't believe I never tried this little gem before. It really is all that and more. My daughter and I went with the sushi rolls. I had the Sandy Springs roll. Crispy tuna role topped with spicy tuna. Very good. I also had the fried oysters appetizer also very nice. I brought a Teriyaki Salmon dinner home to my wife and it too was very good as well. After the food and the very good service, the main takeaway was it is a very welcoming, comfortable place. They have this very warm, comfortable bar as well that I plan on visiting next time I'm eating alone. I am embarrassed I never tried this place before. It deserves to be ranked as one of Sandy Springs' really special places. I'm looking forward to visiting again. read more

Excellent food and service! We always have a great experience and Jackie always makes us feel special. We have introduced it to some of our friends recently and they love it too. Thank you Bishoku! read more

Beautiful caring staff. Owner, Jackie, is so thoughtful. They remember your drink order, suggest new items and make you feel like family every time. You are never rushed and always taken care of!

Bishoku is an outstanding sushi restaurant In Sandy Springs. The food is flavorful and very fresh - just fantastic. The owner and staff are always welcoming and provide truly excellent and friendly service. We have been regular customers for over 10 years, and always have a wonderful evening. Many nights are busy, so it's a good idea to call ahead. read more

Excellent taste, bit high priced. Excellent service. Prices listed on the website are much less than in restaurant charges. Ie:nabeyaki udon 14.50 vs 18.50. Take sashimi 28 95 vs 33.95 Best sashimi I've had since before pandemic. Miso and udon soup very flavorable! Shrimp gyoza wow taste. Complimented owner/mgr on good tasting food, but Chicken teriyaki was small portion. She explained it was more like appetizer size. Complimentary small cake desserts. Will be back periodically, but not as often read more

2 hours of almost nonexistent service and sour attitudes from staff put a stain on an otherwise tasty dinner. We were a party of 3 coming together to cheer up a friend who had recently lost a loved one. One of my friends enthusiastically recommended this place, which she frequented before the pandemic. The restaurant was quaint and felt like an ideal place to unwind and forget about our troubles, even if just for a short while. We were seated promptly at 6 pm at a corner table near the front with a window view. From that point on, the evening took a bizarre turn. We felt rushed to order. I appreciated our server coming over promptly to take our order; however, we let her know that a couple of us were first timers there and needed time to review the menu. She proceeded to try and take our order several more times just minutes apart before we were ready. Our waitress then walked away, and we never saw her again. We waited about 10-15 minutes and flagged someone down, who turned out to be one of the owners, and asked to place our order. The positives -- the food came out in a timely manner, was well-executed, and a man refilled our waters before we noticed the need for more. I especially enjoyed the Agedashi Tofu and the Nasu Karashi (grilled eggplant cooked in house miso sauce). The eggplant came with three wooden spoons for sharing, and you could see the steam escape from the hot, fleshy tender eggplant. Unfortunately, aside from the water, we received zero attention from the staff, much less our initial server, to see if we needed anything, were interested in dessert or were ready for the check. When we flagged down one of the staff members to ask a question, he looked annoyed and stood 6+ feet away expecting us to tell him what we needed from a distance. When we asked another young lady if she could tell us who our server, she was unfriendly and said 'well, the owner took your order, right?'. A non-answer to our question as we were looking to order dessert and get some basic service. She rattled off dessert choices, and her attitude was the reason I passed on any sweet treats. I try to be understanding in these scenarios when staff are serving a full house; however, the complete disregard and staff attitude made this experience my first and final visit. read more

A Hidden Gem! I found this spot, while looking for dinner late one evening. It's cutely nestled in the same plaza as Cinema Springs Taphouse. What struck straight away, was the tranquil, jazz vibe and demure lighting. My server was very attentive, and helpful in my menu selections, as well & the FRESHNESS of the sushi raises the bar, IMHO, for other area sushi restaurants! My selections arrived very quickly, and left to savor them, my palate was in heaven! And lest we forget the ample wine selection, which is sure to please varied tastes. All in all, Bishoku is perfect for friends-catching-up... to couples dates. I'll definitely return to try some of their other fare and would highly recommend. read more

I liked 2 of the rolls I had at Bishoku, but one was just okay. The ones we liked were Heavenly ($15.95) and Jackie's ($15.95). The one I could've done without was the Husney ($20.95). The sauce that came with it was interesting. I think there is better sushi in the area. read more

This is a hole in the wall restaurant. This shopping center is next to a busy intersection and is adjacent to a Chipotle. The shopping center looks like it was built in the 80-90s and could definitely help with a power wash. Restaurant is packed for no reason likely because there are higher concentration of people in this area. I have been to many Japanese restaurant (Japanese owned) in the area and Michelin starred in New York and LA, and this place is overpriced for no particular reason. Just having some dim fluorescent lights don't make a restaurant high end or using towel to wrap your chopsticks. I ordered a take 10 (10 small piece of sashimi) that came with no salad or soup and two rolls approximately 20 each. The total plus tip (20% on the machine is really 22% due to post tax calculation) came out to $100+. We waited for about 45-55 minutes for just these rolls and a 10 piece sashimi. The pictures attached are what we ordered you judge for yourself. Sushi mito, circle sushi, Mf sushi, ginya, Hayakawa, Tanaka seem to be better priced and have better services. Sushi is acceptable at best at least it wasn't fishy. read more

We decided to try Bishoku on a a Thursday night at around 7:50pm. We were seated promptly without a reservation but that was the end of the good experience. It wasn't super crowded but the service was soooo slow. It took our waitress at least 15 minutes to ask if we wanted a drink but by that time we were ready to order. I asked the waitress what the crunchy shrimp roll was and I didn't really get an explanation. When it came out I was surprised to find it was panko bread crumbs wrapped in rice with a thin piece of cooked shrimp on top. It did not taste good and the texture was disappointing. I asked for a different sushi roll instead (the double shrimp) with avocado added since I've never had sushi with nothing but the fish in it. The second roll tasted better but came out with no avocado. The waitress also seemed extremely annoyed and short. We felt that more attention was paid to the larger parties or the parties that had ordered more food. The chicken teriyaki took 40 minutes to come out which seemed pretty long given the number of tables sat (4 max). It was a nice sized potion but it seemed a bit unreasonable to charge $3 for a side of plain steamed rice. Our waitress brought out complimentary small slices of chocolate cake at the end which was a nice surprise. I'm not sure if this is standard or because she realized we were unhappy with the experience. Overall, we wouldn't return. I think there are better Japanese restaurants in the area, especially for sushi. read more

We found this place for sushi in Sandy Springs, Georgia! We had the 20 piece sashimi, it was a chef special picks, so you really don't know exactly what you get! The pieces were too thick! We had spicy salmon roll, shrimp tempura and vegetable tempura! The shrimp tempura was good but expected a little larger, the flavor was good! The spicy salmon roll was pretty tasty and had just the right amount of rice! The service was great! read more

Amazing sushi!!! My sushi was so good. Best sushi I have had in ATL! Will be coming back for sure.

We enjoyed the decor just as much as the ambiance in this establishment, jazz played as we enter the building with a lighting that elegantly set an amazing mood for us. As our table was set we were directed to a quaint bar to the left of the main entrance, as we approached the bar we were once again greeting by the bar keep who provided us with excellent service. The food was amazing from the appetizers to the entrees and rolls. Everything we ordered was delicious and filling. We will certainly recommend to friends and will be back to try new items on the menu. Easily our new favorite sushi spot! We went to celebrate a birthday, we found a place well most definitely become regulars of. read more

Amazing service! Food was delicious and staff were great!! I would highly recommend going and having dinner here.

What a lovely restaurant in the middle of the plaza I've never been to before. every dish was super and very fresh. miso soup has lots of taste to it. a bit pricey, nice atmosphere, even with the tables as close to each other there is no blasting music, so it's reasonable to have a conversation. Great service read more

Went here on a whim because I was craving sushi. First timer. Walked in right after 5p, minutes after they opened for dinner. Ambiance was so perfect. It was quiet with low light and the cutest decor. I was lucky enough to be seated by the lovely Ms. Noriko. I ordered a crunchy crab roll which was good. She suggested I try the Sandy Springs roll which I did and it was phenomenal! I was almost done eating my two rolls when Noriko brought me a small square of chocolate cake. It was still warm! She was so sweet. I will definitely be returning soon to try other things. read more

Really enjoyed dinner here. NIGIRI We loved all the nigiri we got from the sushi bar. We got toro tuna, salmon, hamachi, and sweet shrimp. All were fresh and delicious, sushi rice also good. SPECIAL MENU ROLLS they were apparently very popular with the dinner guests all around us, so we ordered two rolls. The DUO SALMON and the POV rolls. Both were very mediocre and i would do without them next time, and just spend the money on nigiri and sashimi. AGEDASHI TOFU i get agedashi tofu wherever i see it and this didn't disappoint. It's light, yummy and the tofu was soft and delicious, but fried nicely on the outside. I would get this again, and dipping other things into the sauce is yummy too! read more
