Such a fun experience at Omakase Table in Buckhead!! Went for a birthday and the chef and the entire team did such a nice job. If you like a unique dining experience, this is the place for you. Intimate seating at a small bar with front row seats to the food, creative and high quality dishes. Service was excellent and everyone was very friendly. read more

Simply an amazing dining experience! The Omakase experience is first rate. The bite sized morsels of seafood and steak are expertly blended with unique flavors and ingredients to create something special. Love the variety of dishes as well as the portions. The Michelin star is well earned. Service was outstanding! Treat yourself to something special. read more

One star Michelin Traditional omakase that has only 2 rooms in the parking lot of the new Publix off piedmont. One star off because I thought it was pretty pricey for the value (almost $1500 for a party of 2, but we did drink a lot lol).. The service was very attentive. I wanted less rice for my nigiri as I was leaving some rice on the sushi plate, and they made a note of that. The first uni in the tasting flight was sooo good, light and sweet. A huge contrast with the second one. The A5 waygu was good but was def too rich read more

One of the best meals I've ever had! The service was impeccable - there were only 14 or so seats available for the meal and everyone was seated at the sushi bar where we could watch the chefs prepare the food, which made for a really fun and interspersed experience. Because the seating is so limited the space is not overly loud and very intimate. I provided a picture of the menu when we went, but it changes (hence omakase) so I won't get into the specific courses. What I will say is that everything we had was spectacular. We added the saki pairings and it was worth it. The entire experience was 5 stars. read more

We've done omakase restaurants in other major US cities, and this one may rank in the #1 spot. The service is incredible from the moment you walk in the door. The restaurant itself is located in a strip mall in Buckhead, which is definitely weird at first. However, the inside is super vibe-y, and all of the details are beautiful. The dishes the meal is served in are beautiful, the bathrooms, everything. The food was incredible. We also both got pairings (1 of us got the sake pairings and the other go the grand pairing). I'd recommend just going for the grand pairing (you basically get everything from the sake pairing + 2 wines). We both had different opinions of favorites, and there wasn't really a consensus on the best dish. Which to me means that all of the dishes were spectacular. We both came into the night not huge uni fans, but the course with the 3 tasting flight of uni really changed our minds. If you're looking for a superior dining experience in ATL, this place should be at the top of your list. read more

This place and experience was EVERYTHING! From the moment we walked in, the vibe was super intimate and welcoming. It's like you're being invited into someone's home for a really special dinner (except that someone happens to be a ridiculously talented sushi chef). The entire experience felt personal and thoughtful. Every course was a surprise and somehow better than the last. The fish was insanely fresh! melt-in-your-mouth and the flavors were creative without being over-the-top. You could tell how much care and precision went into each piece. The staff were awesome,friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience feel relaxed and fun, not stuffy or pretentious. If you're into sushi or just love trying new food experiences, check them out! It's a splurge, but 100% worth it. Can't wait to go back! read more

Omakase Table is a 20-course dining experience and at first I was worried that I would not be able to finish all 20 courses, but Chef Paul did an amazing job with course sizes and pacing! By far my favorite omakase experience in the Atlanta area and their 1-Michelin star rating is well deserved! Chef Paul was super knowledgable about all of the cuts of fish and the history behind different aspects of Japanese culture. The restaurant itself is an extremely intimate setting with 2 small rooms so each setting is split evenly. Restaurant decor is very tasteful and it feels like you're transported to Japan once you step through the front door with the rock garden walkway and the shoji screen walls. Highly recommend this spot to any sushi lover looking for the best sushi in the Atlanta area! read more

Had an incredible experience dining here during a trip to Buckhead. The outside is unassuming, almost speakeasy-style in its low-key presentation. The inside was very clean and elegant. All staff members were extremely friendly, professional, and attentive. Started with welcome bubbles and caviar and then progressed through 20 delicious courses. The nigiri presentation is exquisite. Rice is warm. Highlights include the uni flight, hotate, and sharkskin nigiri. Chef was competent and kind. read more

If you know us, we love a good omakase -- and we literally travel just to find and try new ones. This one is definitely high on our list. The ambience is intimate, elevated, and the service was truly on par with other Michelin-level omakases we've been to. We were seated next to a fellow foodie who said she's been here many times -- and that says a lot. As foodies ourselves, there are only a handful of places we return to often, and this would be one of them. We tried all the add-ons they offered -- and the uni gohan with truffle was especially amazing. Highly recommend getting the Grand Tasting with the pairing as well -- it includes sake and wine and elevates the whole experience even more. Also love that many women lead and own parts of this concept -- big plus for me. Every dish was thoughtfully made, beautifully presented, and several were completely unique compared to other omakases we've tried before -- especially the sushi topped with "ice cream" that was actually frozen fish liver. Surprisingly delicious and unlike anything we've had elsewhere. If you're like us and have tried many omakase experiences -- this is absolutely a must-visit when in Atlanta. read more

One of the best dining experiences I've ever had. The staff was attentive and friendly. As a solo dinner, I feel like they were hanging out with me more just to make it more fun. It's a twenty course omakase and every course was amazing. Some of the standouts were the filefish, wagyu sukiyaki, lean tuna and the yellowtail. But honestly, everything was great. At $255 with 20% service charge, it's not cheap, but if you're a foodie and/ or sushi lover, this place is a must. read more

This place has been on my watchlist for some time so I finally decided to try it. I made a reservation via Open Table for a party of one. There was plenty of availability at the time so I was able to get a seat for the upcoming Friday. While in my uber, the driver mentioned he had been to the restaurant before and said I would really enjoy it. I hadn't eaten much that day so I was ready for a nice meal. Upon arrival, I was seated at the counter like traditional Omakase. Chef Paul introduced himself and the server introduced himself as well. They asked my water preference and provided me with a welcome drink along with cavier. The menu is pre-determined by the chef and provided when you're seated so you can follow along as the courses are provided. There are 20 courses. The seafood used is really fresh and some of the best cuts available. You can tell the chef is super knowledgeable about food and flavor profiles by the way he explains each dish. I enjoyed the experience alot. The one con is that I requested my dessert first in my reservation. When I arrived they weren't able to accommodate it because they mentioned they serve everyone the same thing together. However, the dessert was just a slice of cake. I set idle for some time in the beginning because we were waiting for another couple before beginning the dinner so I do feel it could've been served during that time. This is the only prix fixe place I've been to that wasn't able to accommodate this request. Overall I did enjoy my dining experience and would recommend this place. I could see them potentially getting a Michelin star next year. read more

A restaurant that claims Michelin-level standards but delivers a deeply disappointing and unacceptable experience. This was not our first time dining at a Michelin-level restaurant, so this review is not based on unrealistic expectations. What we encountered here was a serious failure to meet even the most basic standards of fine dining. We arrived approximately 10 minutes before our reservation time and were informed that our table was not yet ready -- which is understandable. What is not understandable is being left to wait on an exceptionally cold day in a poorly heated space, with nothing more than a small, ineffective heater. A restaurant aspiring to excellence should prioritize the comfort of its guests. The most serious issue occurred during the meal itself. A dish containing chicken was served to me despite the fact that I had clearly stated in advance that I do not eat chicken and am sensitive to it. This is not a minor oversight -- it is a serious and potentially dangerous failure. To make matters worse, the waiter explained the dish only after it had already been served, and even then his explanation was difficult to understand. The moment I realized what I had been served left me feeling physically unwell and extremely upset. Service throughout the evening was slow, disorganized, and exhausting. The gaps between courses were unreasonably long, to the point that we eventually chose to stop the meal altogether and request the check -- something we have never done at a fine dining restaurant before. Overall, the service was inattentive and unprofessional, showing a lack of control over even the most fundamental details. This is not a matter of personal taste but of basic competence and responsibility. Final warning: Anyone with food sensitivities, allergies, or expectations of professional fine-dining service should think twice before dining here. read more

A polished illusion, not a real fine-dining experience This restaurant presents itself as high-end, but the reality does not match the image. From the moment we arrived, the host was cold and dismissive, making us feel like an inconvenience rather than guests. The tasting menu is more about theatrics than substance. Most dishes were so small they barely qualified as food, and the flavors failed to justify the presentation. Watching the chef work was interesting, but it couldn't compensate for how unsatisfying the meal was. Even more concerning was the total lack of communication. No one asked about allergies or dietary restrictions. My wife does not eat chicken, yet she was served multiple chicken dishes. The improvised replacements felt careless and unworthy of a serious restaurant. What should have been a memorable celebration turned into disappointment. This place relies on image, not hospitality or care. We will not be returning. read more

There are no words really. This was a cross between one of the most amazing meals I ever had in my life and a mini-day spa experience. I was totally pampered and made to feel special from the moment I walked in the door. The food was beyond sublime. Every course was perfect. And the ambiance could not have been better! I highly recommend the sake pairing. It added a lot to the meal. It should have at least two Michelin stars! read more

WOW. Where do I even start? Food: There was not a bite that we did not think was absolutely out of this world. All of the fish was incredibly fresh, sliced to the perfect thickness, served at the perfect temperature, and combined with creative and unique compliments. One dish had thinly shaved freeze dried strawberries that added a touch of acidity that I loved. The caviar was of the highest quality, and was supper fatty and nutty. I was very impressed with the special uni tasting. 10/10 Service: They are knowledgeable about the dishes, techniques and reasoning behind the recommended mode of eating to experience the intended flavor. The service is outstanding. Knowledgable staff and attentive without being over-bearing. The perfect balance. All other elements I give a 10/10, ambience, etc. Very intimate and exclusive. I want to give a special review for Chef Yang who was one of the chefs handling our meal. Everything was executed with such precision and passion. You could see by the smile on her face and look in her eyes that she was very proud of what she was creating and was confident we were about to be blown away. I loved the technique she was using while creating the nigiri. It was very graceful like a dance. She kept a very clean station as she worked and maintained a clean appearance herself. 10/10 It was my birthday and the menu had the date and happy birthday on it which I could take home as a souvenir, which I really appreciated. I will definitely be going back every few months. Everything is in the details and I could go on and list many more but I would like to leave some as a surprise. read more

Great spot! It was a lovely experience and a great meal. Definitely would recommend and try again.

We visited the sister restaurant in West Midtown. While it is pricey, it is both a gourmet meal and an experience all in one. Chef Johan was a skilled chef with a wonderful personality. We were there for our son's birthday and they made him feel welcome and special from the moment we walked in. We were fortunate to be there with only one other party, a couple celebrating their anniversary. It felt like a private dinner. The service was impeccable with two wait staff in attendance during the entire presentation. And most importantly the dishes were outstandingly fresh and with beautiful presentation. Everyone should experience a meal like this at least once. read more

Chef and staff were friendly and courteous. You were never wanting or waiting. If your cup of water or tea was going low, the wait staff was filling it up before you thought to even ask for more. Pacing of the omakase was great and the flow was also nice. I thoroughly enjoyed all the food. My all time favorite is the otoro nigiri and negitoro. The ship saba with ramps, kawahagi and nodoguro were all astounding pleasant surprises. To end the meal with a delicious match pistachio opera cake. I ate both my and my husband's. A star that was not food were the chopsticks provided during the meal. They were light weight and the tips were thin enough to pick up one grain of rice. read more

Where do I even begin?? The BEST Omakase in Atlanta, hands down. In Japan, I've tried several omakase experiences and so much sushi, so it's safe to say, Omakase Table does NOT disappoint. The service from chefs and staff is impeccable, genuine, and spot on. The ambiance is elevated yet comforting, very much like being invited to a warm family meal at a friend's house. The smallest touches of personality is what differentiates this from other omakase experiences. If you look closely, there's cat figures hidden among the room, every chopstick holder is uniquely different, and my favorite detail is your personal Polaroid picture taken at the end of the meal. From the bottom of my heart, thank you Omakase Table! read more

The only reason to not come to Omakase Table is if you don't like sushi (or if your preferred idea of sushi is California rolls from the grocery store). The experience here is delightful -- every course is explained to you in its origin and intention. The fish is spectacular, and so many of the options are things that you just don't see on the menu around Atlanta (barring our other top-tier sushi places like Mujo and Hayakawa). Yes, this is pricey for Atlanta ($235 pp for the 20-course menu alone) but if you can afford the price, it is absolutely worth it. When we went they didn't yet have their liquor license, so I cannot speak to their drinks. read more

I was visiting from out of town and found this lovely hidden gem online. They serve the freshest high quality ingredients which makes it all worth it for its price tag. You can also tell the passion chef Yu has for food. The little bites and appetizers before the nigiris were all very different and well crafted. The house-made pickled Hawaiian ginger was also very yummy and different from any other ginger ive had before. This was a wonderful omakase experience. read more

Such an amazing omakase experience! Omakase Table is located over by the Howell Mill part of town. Loved that it's walking distance so we took a stroll beforehand just to check out the sights. Parking is right next door in the 788 Building Garage ($12, cards accepted only). You have to make reservations and they currently offer a 5:30 PM and 8 PM seating for 12 people. We spent about 2.5 hours there. The 20 course meal was $225 per person and we were able to BYOB. Payment is made in advance when the reservation is made, so that was another thing I liked - that you can just go enjoy the meal and experience without having to worry about fumbling with money/signing receipts at the end. The wonderful staff was attentive and took care of our beverages and pours throughout the evening, never letting any glass get close to empty, and returning any leftover items to us at the end of the evening. We started the meal off with the traditional warm towels to clean our hands. Then, we each received a spoonful of the most amazing caviar to cleanse our palate. From there, the next 18 courses consisted of small plates and nigiri. We ended with a hand roll and then dessert. We had a small finger towel beside our plates that we could use to wipe off our fingers after touching each nigiri. And we were provided with pickled ginger to cleanse our palate after each nigiri as well. The chefs and staff were wonderful about explaining what each dish was. They were clearly so passionate and we learned so much throughout the evening. We couldn't get over all the little details ranging from the perfect placement of each item to the beautiful dishes from Japan. The ambiance of Omakase Table is unlike any other as well. As other reviewers mentioned, some omakase places feel too informal while others feel too formal and uncomfortable. Here, we just felt so comfortable while still being able to recognize that we were enjoying fine dining. It never got too loud with the 12 people but it also wasn't awkardly quiet. And the food was phenomenal. I never would have thought that I would enjoy something more than I enjoy uni. But my favorite course wound up being the amberjack nigiri. Everything offered just melted in my mouth and required minimal chewing. I feel like I've missed out on real tamago and uni until now. The staff was so attentive that if someone even went to the restroom, they would come back to a reset chair and refolded napkin. Speaking of restrooms, it reminded me of being in Japan again! Bidet/music/warm seat/automatic seat opening toilet! Even the hand soap you push down on it and it dispenses soap foam in the shape of a flower into your hand! I still can't get over how amazing our experience was at Omakase Table and I will be recommending any sushi lover to Omakase Table. Just do it. Whether you want to treat yourself, go out for date night, or if you're in the area on business, you won't be disappointed! read more

Omakase is one that is deserving of a Michelin star. Food, service, presentation, and the ambiance was all perfect. Leonard Yu evokes a masterpiece of artistry and culinary beauty. Be sure to make a reservation and try it out! As a person who appreciates sushi and frequents high quality establishments, I was just floored. Given the relative lower price point to New York or California, I wasn't really sure what to expect. The venue did not disappoint! Each dish was prepared with extreme precision and incredible complexity. When I fly back to Atlanta, I will be sure to go back! Thanks Leonard and your incredible hospitality and service! read more

One of the best meals and experiences in Atlanta. If you're a sushi connoisseur, Omakase Table is a must. Went here for my husband's birthday, he loves seafood/sushi and has a very adventurous palette. I, on the other hand, am not as adventurous, I expected to not eat some of the items. I ate everything served and it was ALL delicious!! This is not your local roll place, this is the freshest and most exquisite sushi you will get in ATL.

Omakase Table ATL was my first omakase experience, and wow -- it knocked my socks off. I was shocked to see this quality sushi even existed in Atlanta. It is on the pricier side ($235/18 course per person) but it is well worth it and you are bound to have an extraordinary experience. We dined in July -- I had to make reservations towards the end of May. They only seat 18 people per timeslot and there are only two timeslots per day (5:30pm & 8pm). It looks like they also have alternative options (a reduced 10-course) but I think it depends on the season. We had a reservation for three at the 5:30 slot and there were 2-3 other parties dining with us. The interior was extremely exclusive and it felt very private so that was a plus as well. The experience is all-inclusive from the beginning. When you enter, they seat you and expose you to the fish you will be tasting. Our menu for the day had: - Kaluga Hybrid Caviar (Appetizer / Palate Cleanser) - Ankimo and Karasumi Mochi (Monkfish Liver from Boston and Dried Mullet Roe with Mochi) - Uni Tasting (3 Different Grades of Sea Urchin from Japan) - Tarabagnic Corn Potage (Red King Crab in Japanese Corn Soup with Kaluga Caviar) - Tachiuo with Ume and Shio Saba (Grilled Scabbard Fish served with Pickled Plum/Arashio Salt and Grilled Club Mackerel with Pickled Ramps) - Mahata Sirumono (Japanese Grouper Poached with Bone Brother and Menegi) - Wagyu Sukiyaki (A5 Miyazaki Wagyu Beef Lightly Poached in Sukiyaki Sauce with Scallions and Quali Egg) - Uni Gohan with Chu Toro (Sea Urchin Rice with Medium Fatty Tuna) - Kinmedai (Splendid Alfonsino) - Shima Aji (Striped Jack) - Sakura Masu (Cherry Blossom Trout) - Kanpachi (Greater Amberjack) - Sagoshi (Young Spanish Mackerel) - Hirame (Olive Flounder with Kimo) - Same Karei (Sharskin Sole with Engawa) - Akami (Lean Tuna) - O Toro (Fatty Tuna) - Aori Ika (Bigfin Reef Squid) - Atsuyaki Tamago (Egg w/ Sweet Shrimp) - Negitoro Handroll (Chopped Fatty Tuna w/ Scallions) - Matcha Swiss Roll Cake As you can see.. this is stuff that you would normally NEVER find at a sushi spot in ATL. This stuff is legit and they don't even have any variation of a salmon. Either the chef or the server will introduce each course for you and educate you on it -- the more you know, the better it tastes. The servers also do a FANTASTIC job at making sure you are having the best experience ever -- makes sure your water is refilled, asks if you need anything without making you feel uncomfortable so I wanted to speak highly of that as well. While all of the 18 courses we tried were outstanding, the one that I want to highlight is the same karei, which is the sharkskin sole with engawa. This was interesting as they fire-torched one piece of the fish and wrapped it with the raw portion and the fatty part that was melted is SUCH a great pairing with the raw part. It was something I've never tasted in my life. Please note that the menu changes daily and seasonally so there are things that will probably differ day by day and that is the beauty of omakase. I've never had omakase before anywhere in the world so I can't be comparative, but I do think it was well worth the money. It is truly sushi you can't try anywhere else in Atlanta, and I looked at some other omakase places in LA and NYC and it actually looks a bit cheaper so this place may be a little pricey, but you sure won't be disappointed. Also -- on the day we went was the day they finally got their liquor license. It was BYOB until the day we went but it now looks like they finally offer spirits and alcohol that you can enjoy/pair with your sushi as well! read more

Omakase was difficult to find in a small storefront without signage...had to pay for parking. A nice enough space but nothing special with small, uncomfortable chairs that weren't deep enough . The chef was precise and informative but hard to hear and could have explained the process more. Omakase left opportunities to discuss the impressive collection of sushi knives or how to pair the rather expensive sake with the food. Some nice preparations with unique flavors but after 20 "courses" I still left hungry because each course was a single nigiri. I expected more for a fixed price of $235 excluding alcohol. We were offered "additionals" for an up-charge that should have been included (?22 courses) Unfortunately, I won't be returning and feel the value just isn't there read more

Wow, what a wonderful, beautiful experience. My boyfriend took me here for my birthday and everything about this choice was amazing. From the intimate experience, to the quality of the fish, I couldn't of asked for a better birthday.
