Had a nice experience. Booked it off Resy which worked perfectly. Super cozy atmosphere, nice and quiet, good date place. I would have to say the Spicy Scallop Handroll ($10) was by far the best thing, 5-stars on that one. I would definitely go with that. The Miso soup ($3 each) was good, and we got 3 rolls, the Samurai (excellent, tasty and crunchy), Spicy Rainbow, and Dragon rolls. Both of the latter were good enough but not really special IMHO. Amount of sushi and flavor were nothing to be impressed by. I ordered salmon sashimi for the little one and they were pretty standard salmon slices. Overall I liked the overall experience more than the rolls. read more

I love both locations of Lily Sushi. This one seems to be larger than the Maxwell location, as it has an upstairs level also. The vibe is nice and modern (used to be the old Dua Vietnamese location). The food here is always great. I typically get some of the specialty rolls. They are always high quality. They do have a lunch special, but the rolls are more basic. Service is solid also. There is nearby free parking in a deck. read more

This was one of the best omakase experiences I have ever had. Many restaurants simply source high-quality fish, prepare standard nigiri, and serve. Here, they go far beyond that. The menu showcases exceptional fish as well as a thoughtful progression of unique and inventive dishes. We began with fatty tuna topped with caviar and roe. The rich, buttery texture of the tuna melted instantly, while the briny pop of the caviar and roe sharpened the flavor and created a beautifully balanced bite. A spicy yellowtail served on a fried leaf followed, along with a sequence of premium selections including fatty tuna belly, flounder, and salmon. The surprises continued. Fried lobster appeared as a course, something I have never encountered in a traditional omakase. They also served a wagyu beef cut, another unexpected and luxurious inclusion. One of the most distinctive dishes was sweet shrimp served head-on, a preparation widely found in Japan yet rarely offered in the United States. Its presence here demonstrated both authenticity and culinary ambition. Based on comparable experiences, I would have estimated the price to fall between $200 and $300. The fact that the entire tasting was only $115 makes this one of the best dining values I have encountered. This restaurant easily rivals, if not surpasses, many of the top establishments in Atlanta and beyond. read more

The sushi is very fresh but the service is so bad. It was very disappointing because I chose this place for my friends birthday dinner. Our server barely checked on us, no refills, didn't explain the menu, didn't show us the dessert menu, didn't try to do anything nice for a special event. Huge disappointment. read more

Amazing!!! Tons of people have told me this is better than many popular well known sushi bars in Atlanta and I can finally understand why! The service is great, the food is so fresh, and ambiance is wonderful. We had a large party of about 18 ladies and it did not disappoint at all. We had a variety of vegetarians and people who love all kinds of sushi. Simply delicious! read more

The Lily team has done a wonderful job of reimagining the space that Dua left behind, utilizing both first and second floor seating, a wide-open bar, and space to walk through. They did a nice job using the floor-to-ceiling windows and furnishings to create an airy but cozy dining experience. I am hopeful they use the outdoor space as well. Though a new location, there is no compromise to the quality and variety of food. If you're not familiar with Lily, it's upscale service and presentation (drinks, too) in a beautifully appointed space. Lily is my favorite upscale sushi in this area. They're still working through their efficiencies at this location so I would expect slower than normal dining experience. At least, it was yesterday, but the service was still nice. :) Also, do yourself a favor and make reservations. read more

We've been fans since they opened the Maxwell location. Sushi is consistently good. We had the dragon and fireball rolls - enjoyed every piece.. Also ordered the filet mignon, which was a disappointment. Pretty flavorless, no seasoning - just chunks of meat. read more

The staff was so wonderful and attentive. The food was delicious and great quality. The cocktail menu is super fun and tasty as well! Inside is smaller than expected but creates a more intimate, cozy feel and doesn't feel crowded. Very good for a date night or fun dinner with friends! read more

Spicy rainbow roll has various flavors of fish and shrimp on each roll for a good combination of sashimi and sushi. Fair pricing for the excellent quality. Ample parking and nice setting. read more

Unable to seat guests with the restaurant being maybe 60% full on a Saturday. Apparently this restaurant is reservation only, but not advertised. This appears to match other reviews I have read. read more

Lily is hands down the best sushi OTP North and this newer location in Crabapple doesn't disappoint! It has the same phenomenal menu & service as the downtown Alpharetta location. This building is bigger, with a second story, which is nice. It's also brighter and more open. I think I prefer the darker, cozier vibe of the other location but this one is lovely too. We ordered the hand rolls (my favorite!) and they were delicious. The salmon skin & yellow tail hand rolls are my favorite and I highly recommend you try them. read more

Great atmosphere, a little in the louder side. We went at 7 pm on Friday night. Wished they had a little more salmon items on the menu and some varied rolls with different flavors. Had a lot of tuna and crab. The crispy rice tuna roll was our favorite! Great service, great cocktails! Sushi seemed a bit over priced for the value - by value not talking about quality. Fish quality seemed great, was more about the curating of it (textured and flavors). We definitely had a great meal though and will be back! Great location downtown crabapple- we got a beer at 6 bridges before. Also a great French cafe to get a cocktail at nearby walking. read more

Consistently great quality sushi, service. Fairly loud due to high ceiling and it gets crowded, particularly on weekend nights. Reservation highly recommended. read more

My wife and I have been a couple of times and love the sushi, but on our last visit we ordered the black cod and filet mignon. The fish was literally the size of my palm (maybe smaller) and as flat. The steak had more onions and mushrooms than steak. (the portion of the steak was again very minimal and cubed) I wasn't looking for huge portions but for the price we were very unhappy. For an entree you would think it at least would be accompanied by rice. Again the sushi is very good but I do feel the entrees are a rip off. read more

This is probably the third place around the same area that I am writing a review for. Yet it illustrates how good they are as well. I went to Lily Sushi Bar twice already: first time to celebrate my mother's birthday, the second time is just going out to dinner with the rest of the family. My brother in law mentioned that he would eat at Lily's everyday if he could. If that's not high praise, I don't know what is. But he's not wrong. When you first walk in, you immediately notice that the interior doesn't resemble a Japanese restaurant at all, let alone a sushi bar. It resembles more of a nice restaurant that could be anything. They have both outdoor and indoor seating with a downstairs and upstairs for the inside. Our server was the same on both occasions and he remembered us, even it's been almost a year since we've been there the first time. And he took care of our order and needs well. Not only did they have great sushi, but they serve other items as well. My brother in law and I both got Hamachi Kama or Yellowfin Collar (highly recommended)! And their drinks are just as good. My family and I were originally from Hawaii and we had sushi places all around us. Lily Sushi Bar tops them all, 100%. Still not convinced? Just try it out and see for yourselves. read more

Not your average dining experience! Beautiful dining room. Service is thoughtful. Food is exotic but not in a scary way! Get the purple cheese cake, idk what it's actually called. It's almost like chocolate but just a little different, like coffee. It's very rich and decadent for my chocolate lovers! read more

Everything was perfect; from the space to the service. The miso soup was some of the best that I've had and the sushi was fresh. If I were closer, I'd be back. read more

Awesome menu, service and good good. Love the ambiance as well. My go to is Crispy Salmon Skin roll Highly recommend!

Wow! We were THRILLED that Lilys was coming to Crabapple, and it did not disappoint! Location is awesome and the service was top notch. The food was out of this world delicious. We had the lobster tempura appetizer and three rolls (kamukaze, wagyu, and sakura). Highly recommend all of it. The lobster tempura and wagyu roll were special - I think we'd have to get those every time! Definitely adding this place to our date night rotation. Can't wait to come back! read more

Wow. Like its sister store in Alpharetta, Lily Crabapple is terrific. World-class Japanese cuisine. A thoughtfully designed space. Modern-ish, but comfortable, with lighting that is bright during the day and classy at night. A comprehensive and authentic menu, inspired by some of the most popular and traditional Japanese restaurants around the world. Execution that is indicative of a well run back-of-the-house. Excellent cocktails. Exceptionally warm and efficient service. Everyone is welcoming and kind. Prices, though not inexpensive, are reasonable considering quality. The only problem at Lily is getting a reservation. Lily is so popular that you'd best reserve as far in advance as you can. With nearly 1000 reviews given, Lily is one of my few 5-star reviews. Enjoy! read more

Fresh, delicious and great service. Very attentive staff and pleasant dining atmosphere.

Great menu! The service was so sweet and personable. The bathrooms were clean, but didn't have a changing table. It wasn't the end of the world but I would have loved to have the option to change my baby in a private area. read more

Lily's is amazing! We took the kids with us tonight and had the best time. Everything was perfect and we are so happy they're in Milton!!

The host was extremely nice and welcoming. Got us sat immediately and brought us hot towels as well as lit the candle at our table. Made the whole experience better. The food was amazing and everyone was very friendly. read more

Ironic, isn't it? Showed up with my peacefully sleeping 3-month-old, hoping for a table for four. Denied. The party behind me, all adults, no reservation? Seated. Watched it all unfold from the coat rack. Guess some customers are considered more 'convenient' than others. read more

My wife and I ordered a specialty Nigiri, Otoro sashimi, two specialty rolls and one classic roll. Everything came out at once. Towards the end I bit on something very hard l, up right in the specialty roll and showed it to the waitress. Told her I didn't want to make a big deal of it and to mention it to the chefs (so it would not happen again to other guests). A few minutes later it happened again with the Otoro sashimi. The skin and meat was visibly attached and while the restaurant didn't seem to believe my first issue, there was no refuting it this time. They did remove the Otoro from the bill. Was a bit surprised they were so casual with how they handled it, given it happened twice in about 5 minutes. Management didn't say a word but the waitress was very apologetic. I live less than 10 minutes from their dt Alpharetta location. We love that location and have been going since it opened several years back. We consider it the pinnacle of sushi in the area but felt grossed out from our experience in crabapple and will not be returning to crabaple. Overall extremely disappointed with this location. As a final note, we did appreciate the space and windows in the crabapple location compared to dt Alpharetta but that will not suffice considering the experience. Lastly, the reviews I read prior to coming to crabapple location seemed to focus on service. I will give them credit. We had a 6:45 reservation and were seated immediately (on a Friday night). Our waitress was superb. She checked on us without being intrusive. I have nothing negative to say about the service other than the meal preparation itself. Still a pricy dinner to be underwhelmed and somewhat grossed out. read more

Best sushi in the area. Friendly service. Great atmosphere. Not cheap but worth it..........

This establishment is getting too comfortable. Quality.....which is most important, is heading down......along with portion sizes. Service.....the only other thing a restaurant can offer, has fallen way off. "Choice Grade sushi" at "PRIME Prices". As an avid "Pickup Customer", 1 to 3 times per week, I can see the slippage. It's too bad. read more

The food is incredible and high quality. Service is great. So nice not to have to drive ITP for great sushi

In infinite awe of Lily Sushi Bar. Each location is absolutely committed to the utmost quality. Each location is a portal to sashimi nirvana. Not only is the product impeccable, the service is equally impressive. As this was my first time at the Milton location, I was happy to see some of the veteran sushi chefs and other familiar faces that I've come to respect at the original location. It was an absolute pleasure to enjoy the beautiful sashimi, sushi, and gorgeous fresh ground wasabi upon shark skin. There will never be another place that compares to Lily Sushi Bar, despite location. Thank you for the life changing experience that you offer here. I promise never to take it for granted. read more

I never write bad reviews, but this place is terrible. I started off by telling my waiter I am celiac (no gluten) so he knew to make special accommodations and make the kitchen aware. We ordered 2 speciality rolls. When it finally came out about an hour later, I took my first few bites, only to find out they brought out the wrong order and I had just ingested fried tempura which has gluten in it. Of course I was upset because I could get sick, and the waiter told me I had "nothing to worry about" ?? Anyways he didn't comp that roll and the owner didn't even come out to apologize or make sure I was okay. Truly I have no idea what this owner is doing. While we were eating, the table behind us had their incorrect order brought out. And someone's carry out order was wrong and we watched them have to come all the way back to get a missing part of the order. The place is severely understaffed and chaotic. The wagyu was good, besides that everything else gets a 0/10 and we will not be back. read more

Tried this new sushi restaurant for lunch in downtown Crabapple. Love that we have a new restaurant option in Crabapple and really impressed with this restaurant overall! First, the service was excellent - our waitress was attentive, informative about the menu and we promptly got our food and constantly coming back to clear dishes and provide refills. The food was very good - we tried a few different sushi dishes and each one was very fresh and well prepared and tasted great! The ambience of the restaurant was very good - great decor within. We look forward to coming back in the future and trying some different dishes. read more
