    Lobster Tempura Special Roll
    Micaela R.

    10/10!!! I love sushi but this has to be the best sushi I've ever had in Atlanta. The service started out questionable as we were at the front for a while with reservations but they only had 2 people working on a Sunday and they were SO sweet. The hot sake that isn't pictured is probably the best hot sake I've had in a while. The lychee martini was STRONG but tasty. The miso soup was delicious as well. I loved the ambiance of this place, the lighting is very moody and just a vibe. It reminds me of a small speakeasy but with excellent food options. I will definitely be back with the girls.

    This is a really nice spot. The restaurant is a whole vibe. Very dark inside though. We came, no reservation but seated immediately. Our server gave us good recommendations and was super sweet. Our sushi was quality and very good. Pricey but worth the elevate experience and again good quality sushi.

    Low lit, sultry, absolutely bespoke. The walls are lined with sake bottles and these gorgeous colored glass light fixtures set the mood. My girls and I had our monthly sushi date here, and it was a crowd favorite. We are OBSESSED with the avocado balls. The current sake flight is also fantastic, from start to finish. Our server was actually very knowledgeable about the sake list, which really added to the tasting. And this time I went with the lobster box roll. It was tasty, but I'm already looking forward to switching things up and exploring more of the menu next visit. If you're into a sophisticated vibe with seriously good sushi, this is a solid spot.

    Second time here but first time having food. It was a modern twist on traditional dining. Dimly lit and relatively low volume is perf for date night and esp there are more bars around for after dinner night cap. Miso cod was amazing- sushi was fresh and the baked scallops were my fav. Got the soft shell crab roll and spicy rum bento style rolls also (not pictured) but not impressed. Service was attentive and drinks were yummy.

    Went on a Sunday right when they opened and it was completely peaceful and quiet. It's super dark and moody so perfect for date night. We sampled numerous dishes and had great customer service from the waitresses. The food was great and the king salmon was delicious. Next time I'll come back and try a few of the cocktails!

    Excellent experience here. service was Timely and on point along with being very friendly. The ambiance is sexy and dark. I ordered an old fashioned which left much to be desired for $22. It was smoked and had flavor but lacked with the whiskey (I'm a lightweight). The hamachi was spicy yet flavorful. My fave fish was the appetizer - Spicy tuna avocado balls. They were incredible albeit very expensive ($8) each for 2 balls. I would have loved this as a roll. The spicy yellowtail roll was good. I found prices to be reasonable. We also had the wagyu roll - I tried a bit...it was tasty but not my speed (not a beef eater so no fault of theirs). 2 rolls, 2 apps, 1 mocktail and a drink were $140 so this place is a little more high end in price. Overall great experience.

    10/10 experience, food, drinks and ambiance. I booked this place for my husband's birthday dinner. I wanted something intimate that offers crafted drinks and even better food. My husband was sooooo happy with this selection and all the great options they had. Snow crab miso, baked lobster tempura, a5 wagyu, and boxed sushi. Drinks were phenomenal as well. Needless to say, we ate our moneys worth and no crumbs were left behind, quite literally. Will def be back! Thank you for an amazing experience.

    Shrimp Tempura Special Roll & Spicy Tuna Roll
    Lydia N.

    My first time at Kinjo room for a date was very pleasant! The interior is dark and moody and the decor is beautifully done, perfect date night vibes. We got the shrimp tempura special roll, spicy tuna roll, and spicy yellowtail roll. They were delicious, I loved the shrimp tempura and yellowtail the most! I also had a sakura cocktail that was supposed to come with a cotton candy cloud, but unfortunately they did not have the cotton candy at the time which was slightly disappointing. Other than that, the drink was very sweet and yummy, and came with decorative flowers and a sugar rim. There were so many delicious cocktail options, I might go back just to try them all! The service was slightly slow, but our server seemed to be helping multiple different tables so it was understandable. I would definitely come back again, and hopefully they will have the cotton candy cloud next time :)

    Exceptional food, drinks, and service. The ambiance was moody and beautiful. The bartenders were efficient, quick, and helpful. The Kinjo cocktail is a must try!! Amazing!

    I went here for girls night out a few days ago and I'll 100% be back with my husband for an intimate date night. We sat at the bar - it has by far more light than any of the table seating - so ig you have any issues with sight, keep that in mind. It a beautiful and aesthetic space. I'll be adding it to my list of "Aesthetic Atlanta Date Night Spots" I ordered a negroni and it was very good. If it is one of your go-to drinks, they make a good one here. My friend ordered a cocktail off the menu and she liked it. I did not try hers so I can't speak to it. For dinner, I was not crazy hungry and sushi tends to fill me up quickly I played it safe and ordered the soft shell crab roll and it was very good. A bit on the small side, I left comfortable full not stuffed. I could have maybe ordered something else to feel a bit more satiated. The presentation was beautiful though. My friend ordered items that were all off menu specials of the day so I can't speak to them as I did not try them and am unsure of the names anyway (I'm not a huge sushi girl. I know what I like and I tend to stick to those) Another BIG plus for me as someone who can use chopsticks but isn't good at it (think food flying and hitting other diners) I was not hassled at all for asking for a fork. No one made fu of me or made me feel bad about it. So if you're not great with them like me, or never learned to use them you will not be made uncomfortable there. Here are some notes of pros & cons: Pros: -Beautiful space, it's sexy and intimate and dark. If you want to impress a date this would be a great spot to start -a lot of options but not an overwhelming amount -unique cocktail offerings ana good wine list -if sitting at the bar (I recommend) the seats are plush and tufted so it's very comfortable -staff was friendly and knowledgeable but not hovering or bothersome -did not make me feel bad for asking for a fork -large sake menu Cons: -very dark. If you have poor eye site this may be a challenge for you -its not easy to find - deep in the belly yard complex. I always get lost in here -parking is expensive ($16 for 2 hours) if you are ITP I would Uber or walk -you should make a reservation s the space is small. You will need to put a card down to do so. There is a fine of $50 per person for missing your reservation (and a grace period of only 15 min) -cocktails are all very expensive ($16-$26) and I did not see any mocktail options on the menu - I did not ask for off menu options -portions were small. Everything we ordered was on the small side but it does seem that some of the rolls are a better size. Just not what we ordered. Like I said I will be back with my husband for a date night

    Came here for dinner on a weekday and it wasn't super busy. We ordered the spicy yellowtail roll, wagyu roll and fried calamari. The fried calamari was pretty good and the batter felt pretty light. The sauce was pretty spicy and flavorful. The Wagyu roll was definitely our favorite! Super flavorful and the asparagus was such a nice crunchy touch! An explosion of textures. The spicy yellowtail roll was also pretty good and the salmon on top was definitely fresh and was a pretty thick cut. Docking some points for service. There seemed to be only one server for the entire restaurant. We weren't checked up on and also had to flag our server down multiple times for items. It wasn't bad service but it was non existent. For a nice ambiance and the price point I definitely hoped we had gotten better service. Overall, will skip this place for better service elsewhere.

    The success of MF Sushi in Atlanta is a clear statement to the expansion by the owner Alex Kinjo, who has brought Kinjo Room to the Westside of Atlanta in 2022. To be blunt here, the start of the establishment was not incredibly smooth, as many things in life are not. Execution lacked and processes were deficient. Thus, it was important to avoid rash conclusions and allow Kinjo Room team to cement its vision. Today, Kinjo Room has grounded itself firmly as an establishment that holds its place in the new sushi district of Atlanta, the Westside. After all, it is surrounded by two Michelin starred restaurants (Mujo and Hayakawa) now along with classic local favorites like Eight Sushi lounge and Oku. The interior vibe is elegant to say the least as there is a sense of intimacy that is not rivaled by many establishments in the city. Creations by the chef are beautifully executed, from irresistible Uni the delicacy of which could rival cotton candy. The tuna tasting brings a pleasant way to experience the fish back to back. Sashimi is created with great attention to proportion and fish quality. While one can talk about fish all day, it's more important to note the people who make this establishment remarkable. The team goes above and beyond to ensure allergy requirements are clearly accounted for, that small requests like turning down the music are incorporated and showing a level of kindness that is always effervescent in the original MF Sushi location. Thus, Kinjo Room not only matured into one of the best sushi establishments in the city, but has all the ingredients to become the esssential place to enjoy sushi in the city without splurging on an omakase experience.

    Outside. Storefront. Located at The Interlock. Convenient parking deck, but it's expensive. ParkMobile Zone #3232.

    We had a great time at Kinjo Room. The food, drink, service, and ambiance were all excellent. If you're in the mood for high-end sushi, Kinjo Room fits the bill for a nice night out. This place has style *and* substance. They definitely have it going on with the atmosphere. The restaurant design is stunning. Kinjo Room has one of the more memorable interior designs among Atlanta restaurants I've visited in recent memory. I expect no less from the restaurant's namesake, Alex Kinjo. If you're familiar with the Atlanta dining scene, Alex needs no introduction. As I wrote in my review for MF Sushi in Inman Park ( https://bit.ly/3Pr1Icr ), his restaurants have always been swanky and stylish. It's clear Alex is talented when it comes to visual aesthetics. His restaurants are gorgeous. Kinjo Room feels like a luxe Japanese bar and lounge. The aura of Alex's restaurants defines them and sets them apart. Most recently, he opened Kinjo Room in April 2022, Mai Kitchen in August 2022, and Yakitori Kona in September 2023. Kinjo Room is inside The Interlock, the bustling development across from now-old-school Westside Provisions District. This part of town has exploded over the last several years. Next door to Kinjo Room is "Kinjo Next Door," another exquisite space. It functions as an omakase bar, private event space, and an overflow room. Kinjo Room itself isn't huge and indeed can feel more like a large room instead of a restaurant. It's dimly lit and intimate with beautiful decor, comfy sofas and pillows, and some of the most luxurious bar stools I've seen. The most convenient place to park for Kinjo Room is inside The Interlock's deck. For us, it cost $15.45 for 2 hours and $18.45 for 3 hours. Use the ParkMobile app. Zone # 3232. The restaurant does not validate. Book your reservation using OpenTable and earn dining points which can be used to redeem restaurant discounts, Amazon gift cards, hotel stays, and more. I was surprised to see I was awarded 1,000 points for my reservation here. It's been years since I had a 1,000-point reservation on OpenTable. They're usually 100 points each. Thank you, Kinjo Room. Kinjo Room works well solely as a cocktail/sake bar as well as a full-fledged restaurant. Both the food and drink menus offered a solid variety of alcohol, sushi, and non-sushi Japanese or Japanese-inspired dishes. Omakase is available at Kinjo Next Door. For details on booking omakase, call 470-355-9138 or email info@kinjoroom.com. Here's what four of us got: Cocktails * Fall of Man ($15) - Kakira Spirits Ugandan rum, lime, Granny Smith apple, aquafaba, nutmeg * Osaka Fizz ($18) - Toki Blended Japanese Whisky, lemon, orange oleo, bitters, thyme * Yard Bird ($25) - coconut-washed Michter's small-batch bourbon, lime, yuzu, campari, salt * Proper Measure x2 ($22 each) - Blade and Bow bourbon, Demerara Gum Syrup, bitters, smoked * Aged Woodford x3 ($20 each) - seasonal Woodford cocktail aged in Woodford oak barrel Beer * Yo-Ho Brewing "Wednesday Cat" Belgian White Ale ($10) * Sapporo x2 ($7 each) Appetizers * Baked Scallops ($16) - baked in Japanese mayo, topped with masago, eel sauce, red tobiko, sesame seeds, scallion * Calamari Karaage ($12) - fried calamari served w/ eel sauce, spicy mayo Special Rolls * Lobster Box ($27) - mayo, green onion, tobiko, eel sauce * Lobster Tempura Roll ($24) - shrimp, eel sauce * A5 Wagyu Beef roll ($30) - asparagus, truffle soy Yakitori * A5 Wagyu Beef yakitori ($35) - tare sauce, garlic chip, shishito peppers, green onions Sushi Appetizers * Otoro Carpaccio (market price $35) - topped w/ Nikiri Shoyu, microgreens, black pepper * Fresh Yellowtail ($20) - lemon zest, cilantro, serrano pepper, grated wasabi Kinjo Nigiri Sushi * Otoro (MP $30 for 2) - super fatty tuna w/ serrano pepper, truffle soy, caviar * Uni x2 (MP $30 for 2) - sea urchin roe w/fresh wasabi * Salmon Belly ($16) - not on menu * Chef's Signature Nigiri Menu x3 ($77 each) - 8 pieces premium nigiri Everything was fresh and high quality, especially the fish and uni. In general, Kinjo Room's sushi was on the same level as I remember from my visits to the various MF Sushi locations over the years. The options for upscale sushi in Atlanta continue to grow and become more competitive. The sushi I had here was comparable to the top places I've been to in recent years (e.g., Nagomiya, NoriFish). The Nigiri Menu included maguro, king sake, sake, chutoro, seared salmon belly, seared hamachi, and A5 wagyu aburi. Each piece was dressed/sauced in some way and every bite was outstanding. The uni, from Hokkaido, was superb. Both it and the otoro stood out. Buttery, melt-in-your-mouth, and packed with umami. Just terrific. The cocktails were phenomenal all-around. If you like old fashioneds, I recommend the Proper Measure. Ours were finished tableside with a flame and smoker. The presentation was fun and the drink's taste was rich and complex as well. Our server Daniel was great. Service was fantastic overall.

    Ask the Community - Kinjo Room

    Are reservations mandatory?

    We recommend making a reservation especially for Friday & Saturday. Reservation is available online with Open Table / Kinjo Room. Or please call the restaurant at 4703559138… 

    What is the walking distance from the parking garage to the restaurant and what is the price of valet parking?

    Parking garage is right next to restaurant. It's very close and all covered. Valet is closest. I don't know the price, but guesstimate $20 for a few hours parking.

    Where can I find the menu?

    Where do you park?

    Belly yard garage. There is valet or hourly paid parking (I payed $16 for 2 hours on a Thursday night)

    Visited Blackjack Bar in Atlanta for the first time. It was suggested as a perfect date night or…read more"girls night" spot on TikTok, which was great because I was in town celebrating my birthday with my best-friend. When you walk in the mood is instantly set with by the low ambient lighting and decor. Being that the theme & cuisine is Asian fusion, they really put a lot of effort into transporting to visually to an Asian oasis. We were seated at a table in the main dining area, but there's also a full bar with ample seating and very nice view. The seats were very comfortable and the tables are spaced in a way for intimacy. They also have music playing the background & the playlist was diverse with music ranging from K-Pop to R&B. Now on to our meal! The menu is pretty straight forward and broken down into apps/small plates, mains/big dishes, and a separate menu for cocktails. To start off we got drinks: lychee martini 10/10 & "cucumber salad" 8/10. Both were very good. The ingredients used make the drinks very intriguing and definitely something you've probably never tasted. It's suggested to keep an open mind when trying their cocktails. For food we had the shrimp wontons 10/10 (sauce was so good ... a little spice to it), the salt and pepper shrimp 8/10 (a little salty but fried well), the Thai basil fried rice 10/10 (the fried egg on top and the pickled cabbage was a great touch), and last the lobster pot 10/10 (presentation alone would make me go back to visit ... this dish was so good and flavor full). Overall my experience was great and I would definitely make it a priority to visit when I come back.

    I came here on Aug 6 for My Birthday. But before that I called on Aug 3 to inquire about…read morereservations and the GM Dante was so nice and accommodating. He assured me that my request for an non-tradtional dinner reservation could be fulfilled. He also informed me that they offered 2 hour parking validation in the 1010 parking deck. So I made reservations for the 6th from 630p-1100p. That particular day they also had a love band. So Dante reserved the high top bar tables for me which was 4 that sat upto 8 ppl. It was perfect b/c when I got there I had 1 friend waiting and then as we ordered food and drinks more ppl came through, and then some left and that was throughout the night. It was perfect. No waiting on opl not splitting bills just come enjoy buy what you want and leave when you want. The set up was EXACTLY what I wanted. SERVICE: Starting with the phone call to make the reservation Dante the GM was really nice an accommodating as I mentioned. I just hate I didnt get to meet him, b/c that day was his one day off. But nevertheless he had everything don't just the way i asked and I was grateful for his attentative nature. We had Yaz as our server and she was amazing to say the least! She was attentative and made sure everyone that came in was properly taking care of. She was personable and quite friendly which isn't that common these days. With everyone wanting a tip for bare minimal service it was refreshing to see someone who seemed to like her job and did it with ease and was on top of her game, so there for she deserved th3 tips she made from us that night. I didn't pay for anything (hence it being my bday), and I still tipped her. That's how good she was. And when I go back I will definitely ask for her section. The hist that checked us in, I believe his name was Mike. He was also very nice. There was a table next to pur high top tables and I asked if my mom could sit there and he said sure as long as they didn't need it, b/c my mom couldn't get up on the barstools that good. And so her and another friend's mom sat there. So worked out perfect AMBIANCE: The restaurant itself was really nice. I enjoyed every part. It was loud and the band was nice. At first on the appearance of the band I didn't know what to expect, but all in all they played a variety of really nice music and it wasn't over powering like they thought they were at a concert like most bands in restaurants. FOOD/DRINKS All I can day here was it was all soo very good. All of my friends were impressed and every person stated how they would have to come back b/c it was so nice. The drinks the food everything. I dont think Iate one thing I didn't like. Only thing I had that I mentioned to the server Yaz was that the octopus tail was a bit chewy amd that's it. The drinks were AMAZING. For me it is all about presentation and the had great presentation and tasted as good as they looked. One drink called the Good Time Girl was soo good and it came out with all these bubbles. It was amazing. They had a appetizer special 3 for $39 and me and a friend order 2 and so we tried 6 different things and it all was good. We had the calamari, grilled octopus tail, chicken wings, lettuce wraps, mussels, and oysters. It was ALL SOO YUMMY! We had a great time and it was perfect for how I wanted to celebrate. I would definitely come again hands down. The only downfall was that night the parking for 2 hours wasn't working properly so I parked on the street, but that wasn't the fault of the restaurant that was something with the garage I suppose.‍ So I definitely recommend this place. It's good for date night, hangout, drinks or a light bite. You won't be disappointed.

I felt bad for the musician because nobody was paying attention. Our server disappeared so even if we wanted to stay for more drinks it was a hassle. The bartender finally tracked down our bill and we decided to go elsewhere.

    A few colleagues and I decided to stop at the bar in the lobby before heading up to our rooms…read more Although it wasn't in the menu, someone asked if they could make a decaf espresso martini and the server said he'd find out. Rather than just finding out, he went ahead and made it and brought it out with the group's drinks. When I saw how good it looked, I decided to order one too. The presentation of the drink was very nice and it had a good creamy flavor to it. This drink was a nice way to wind down the evening. As someone from TX, I did think the drinks were a bit on the pricey side but it's not surprising with it being the ritz. I liked that the bar had a fun yet casual ambiance and there were plenty of people around. We did ask what time last call was and were told midnight so we didn't hurry to order a second drink. Unfortunately, when we ordered another at 10:40... we were told they had closed which was frustrating.

    We recently attended the Auburn/Baylor game and had already planned to park in the lot next door…read more We decided ahead of time to try Wild Leap Atlanta since it was close by and had great reviews. I'm not a beer drinker, but it looked like they have a variety of beverages in addition to a couple of meal choices. We entered, and everyone was so friendly. After placing our orders, we received a text that let us know to go nearby to the food truck to pick them up. The double burgers were tasty and the fries delicious. Our slushie drinks were exceptional. We enjoyed our meal before walking over to the game. As the ballgame ended, there was a notification that there was a severe thunderstorm and we should shelter in place by staying in the stadium. Since we had a bit of a drive home, we decided to get ahead of the weather and traffic and leave early. Well, we had only walked one block when the bottom fell out. We were drenched. We decided to run back into Wild Leap before we got our car next door. As we got to the front door, a young man (Manager? Shift manager?) whom we had seen working there earlier opened the door and welcomed us in. He immediately grabbed hand towels that were clean and dry for us to wipe off with and offered any assistance he could give us. We went to the restroom and tried to clean up a little, then came back out, handed over the towels and walked outside. It was still pouring out. The same man then insisted on running to his car to get his personal umbrella for us. He returned with the umbrella. My daughter used it as she got our car, then returned it to him. We were so impressed with Wild Leap for many reasons: the food was delicious, the drinks were excellent, and the service was superb. Thank you, Wild Leap, for playing an integral role in giving us a wonderful day in Atlanta!

    This was my first time at Wild Leap. I came with my wife for a friend's birthday, as she was…read morecelebrating here. Parking can be a little confusing at first, but there's a huge parking lot basically right behind (or in front) of the place. They have quite a few beers on tap, so if you like beer, you will definitely find something you like. They also have slushie drinks and then you can make your own well drink if you want too. They don't serve food, but they do occasionally have food trucks on site. Wild Leap has two levels, but the lower level is where the party is. The TVs are all down there, and they have some nice outdoor seating. The staff is all super friendly too. Happy to help! While Wild Leap is quite nice, it's super far from my home in Chamblee. I probably won't come back anytime soon, unless someone is having an event here.

    I've been wanting to try this bar out, and I finally had a chance to do so on Tuesday for jazz…read morenight! They hold a jazz night every Tuesday with live music for a nice chill, yet fun, vibe. Just a warning, the space inside is pretty small--typically there's optional seating outside, but it's really chilly at the moment (although they have heaters)--but there's more seating downstairs in The Victorian Atlanta plant shop. I didn't realize that the two were connected! FYI, if you sit downstairs, you'll be seated next to where the live music performers will be playing, so it will be louder there. As for the drinks, I tried the Zombie. I loved it so much, I ordered a second one instead of trying a different one! It tasted sweet and slightly tropical with the rum and spiced liqueur. It also had some absinthe, which I was worried about when I first ordered it since I hate the taste of it (not a big fan of black licorice flavors), but I didn't taste it at all! Overall, this place had such a great vibe to it!

    Burle's is a great cocktail bar right off the beltline. The inside part is small and intimate but…read morethey have a lot of outdoor seating. The indoor seating is hit or miss as they have one couch that is really low to the ground and uncomfortable to sit on but the other couches are comfy. The cocktails here are delicious. I got the white witch and wow, what a great drink! The bartenders are all super kind too and make the drinks quickly. I can't wait to come back and try some of their other cocktails!
