My wife and I stopped by Noshi Sushi & Grill today and honestly left very impressed…read more Noshi is located off Exit 8 on I-985 near Lake Lanier Islands Parkway in Buford, in the location where Sally's used to be. One thing I do want to mention because I think it matters: After Sally's closed, another restaurant moved into the space previously but never properly updated the signage or Google information. So many people, including myself at one point, walked in expecting Sally's and ended up confused because it was a completely different restaurant and menu. Unfortunately, I think that caused frustration for customers and prevented the previous restaurant from ever really getting a fair opportunity. Noshi is completely different. Noshi opened only about three weeks ago and is owned by Liliana and August, who were both incredibly welcoming and kind during our visit. Liliana handles the front and makes everybody feel welcome while August handles the kitchen and sushi preparation in the back. They both came over to introduce themselves and check on us personally, and you can tell they genuinely care about the community and the experience they're providing. The pricing here immediately stood out to us because it is VERY fair, especially for the portion sizes and quality. Many hibachi plates are around $12-$13 and come with generous portions. Sushi pricing was also excellent with regular rolls around $6-$8 and specialty/fried rolls around $12-$13. We tried quite a bit: fried gyoza dumplings, crab rangoon, the Godzilla Roll, Philadelphia Roll, Boston Roll, Lanier Roll, spicy crab salad, clear soup, steak and chicken fried rice, and vegetable lo mein. The gyoza were crispy and flavorful, and the dipping sauce they serve with them was incredibly good and addicting. The crab rangoon is done differently here than most places. They're larger and almost pastry-like, similar to an empanada style. Crispy outside, soft inside, very comforting, and extremely tasty. The sushi was fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. The Godzilla Roll was probably my favorite item I tried. Great flavor, great texture, and very well prepared. My wife especially loved the Boston Roll. The fried rice and lo mein were both excellent as well with fresh vegetables and great flavor throughout. The steak and chicken I ordered with it were tasty and the steak was tender and cut well. They also make their own yum yum sauce in-house and it was excellent, very creamy and flavorful. It paired perfectly with the fried rice, hibachi, and appetizers. I also appreciated how clean and spacious the restaurant is inside. The chairs are actually very comfortable, the tables are large, and the dining room feels open and welcoming. They also have a convenient self-serve to-go setup in the corner. Parking was easy since it's part of a shopping center with plenty of available spaces. They also carry bottled Coca-Cola products, which made me happy because an ice-cold Coke Zero always makes a meal better. This was a genuinely enjoyable experience from start to finish. Good people, fair prices, generous portions, and flavorful food. If you're in the Buford or Flowery Branch area and have been curious about the new restaurant in the old Sally's location, give Noshi Sushi & Grill a shot. Liliana and August are doing a great job and deserve support from the community.

The concept is great - you choose either a poke bowl or ramen, and then fill it up with a protein (or multiple proteins) and various toppings. The price is fair for the amount and quality of food - that wasn't the issue. The issue was that the restaurant wasn't nearly busy enough to be that dirty. We ate inside, and I get the feeling they do a much larger takeout business than dine in. We saw several folks come to pick up orders or take them to go while we were there (only 30-40 minutes.) That's fine, but all of the tables were dirty. We had to clean one of them up before we could sit, and that's just not okay.

The building itself is called the Sweet Octopus. It seemingly houses four different businesses(although they may just be four distinct menus with the same business): Poke Burri, Lifting Noodles Ramen, Thai & Sushi, and Empanadas House(second floor). The first two menus are served inside on the first floor. I'm not sure about the Thai & Sushi Menu. I thought I saw on the online menu that you could create your own sushi burrito, but the menu at the restaurant only has custom poke bowls. Go online to their website to see the Secret Menu. I would have tried the sushi pizza from that menu but I was ordering takeout, so maybe next time. Atmosphere: Very nice and comfortable. Outdoor seating available, plenty of natural sunlight indoors, medium noise level from the kitchen, very spacious. Strings of lightbulbs hanging from the ceiling. Food: I got an order of Fried Gyoza for my appetizer. Four pieces for with gyoza sauce for $5 was a fair price. The dough was a bit stale and the sauce was more sweet than I'm used to, but the pork filling was great. I got the $16 Best of the Best Burrito for my entree. I feel like they could drop the price a few bucks. $16 for what I got didn't really seem worth it. Another review said the burritos were the size of egg rolls. They're definitely bigger than that. Mine filled me up. The fish tasted pretty fresh to my surprise. On the other hand, it wasn't that tender. I pulled a long strip of salmon out of the burrito with my teeth because I couldn't bite into it. It was also so sweet. Looking at the ingredients, it should not be sweet. I didn't like it very much. If it were better, I'd still find a $12-$13 price tag more reasonable. Service: There wasn't much to say about this as it was a fast food restaurant. The server was an average server. I didn't bother checking the cleanliness of the tables since I ordered takeout. My food came out in a reasonable amount of time. Overall: I do agree this place is slightly overpriced, but that was just for my burrito. The poke bowls definitely looked very overpriced. I wouldn't come for those. This entire area is meant to stroll through to relax. If you're already here, the sushi burrito can be fun for kids or a date. That's what I would recommend you visit this restaurant for. If you're looking for a poke bowl, you can very likely get a good bowl elsewhere for a much lower price. Definitely wouldn't go out of my way for this place if I were craving sushi but out of rare convenience, I would.
