For this being sushi in Blairsville I really can't complain. Could it be better? Definitely (I don't think they use sushi rice). Was it surprisingly fresh and good quality? Yes. If I had a craving and was here again traveling, I'd go again. But I wouldn't go out of my way. Great value! read more

Very cute place to stop on our road trip! The sushi was fresh and very yummy! Would definitely go back on our next time. read more

I just moved locally about five months ago from SoCal and it was great to find The Sushi Shack. Great Prices, the service is always super friendly, it's a cute spot to eat indoors and I love that they have a drive-thru as well for take out. I recommend the Calamari Crunch roll! read more

Yes, we question good sushi in the mountains! But, the Sushi Shack NEVER disappoints. I always start off with a nice glass of wine (not on the menu). My appetizer of choice is the calamari sticks - YUM! My husband and I share the Blairsville roll and the Grouper Roll. Both are very tasty. The staff is very friendly and fast! We will definitely return! read more

Don't judge a book by its cover, especially if it looks like a shack. Yard Bird roll was our favorite. Visiting from South Carolina. read more

Food is decent, I order mostly tempura rolls, not sure where restaurants source their seafood here, I notice that restaurants here for the most part don't have a great food aroma, not sure why that is. The places always have a non food smell some with some unpleasant smell even when the food is good. I like to walk into a restaurant and be captivated by their aroma not the opposite. I order at this place because it's the only place other than Tapenzake, not sure on spelling. It's ok not over the top but it's safe... read more

This place is a hidden gem. In a world of overpriced food, these folks offer simple sushi at very reasonable prices. Not a single frill in sight, just a simple well made dish with a dollop of wasabi and a couple slivers of pickled ginger. Been here 2 or 3 times, always good quick service, nothing fancy, and a perfectly reasonable price. It's maybe not a five star experience, atmosphere, or food presentation, and it doesnt aim to be. So for what they are shooting for, a five star review. read more

Got a few rolls for my friend and I. The sushi is made to order so that's convenient if you are a picky eater. The price was cheaper than any sushi I think I've had so that's a pro! The spicy tuna and JB roll were ok. Had to take the green onion out of the JB roll because it was all I tasted on the first try. The blairsville roll was very good though! Would come back for sure. It hit the spot. Small spot but wasn't busy when we went on a Saturday around 6pm. They also have a drive thru that is pretty cool. Everyone seemed nice. read more

The restaurant was clean, staff were very nice and competent in their services. The food on the other hand was very below average. The salmon was not sushi quality in how it was cut or presented. It was torn and mangled. Clearly not done by an Asian chief or trained as such. After that, I didn't trust the sushi and how it was prepared. I would not recommend and will not return. read more

Sushi is awesome and so are the dumplings and egg rolls. Prices are reasonable and the staff is friendly and attentive. Clean cozy atmosphere. read more

The best sushi place in Blairsville! The staff are very friendly and the food is great!

First time stopping in. Great food & service Not sure why we waited so long but we will be back.

One of the Best sushi in the mountains we like the atmosphere and we recommend it. we love it

Fresh and flavorful. Great Sushi combinations and Poke Bowls are excellent. Especially Ahi Tuna

Maybe the second best sushi in Blairesville. But it's the only one. Recommend any place else.

Food is delicious. Service is great even when they are swamped. Awesome sushi fare! Hurry there!

The amount of sushi you get for the price is insane! I'm from a big city, and these rolls would typically be $12 to start, so I found the prices very good. The tuna philly, regular philly, and yard bird rolls were all yummy and fresh. I loved that they serve the tea in cute individual pots. My only downside would be that the restaurant had an unusual cleaning product scent, sort of like the smell of the inside of a mop bucket, instead of that soy sauce smell. I'm not sure if that's typical for the restaurant, but it's something to look into for the future. Thank you for the lovely service. read more

Great sushi. Great menu. Selection super service. The staff was super super friendly. What else can I say?

Good food, great service, casual atmosphere, a delight to find decent sushi in the mountains. A glass of plum wine would have made it outstanding, but they explained that they were having trouble with their supplier. All in all, excellent! read more

Thanks to yelp, we drove to this place for sushi on our way back to Atlanta from Gatlinburg and it was worth the drive. Small little "shack" with great customer service! It's small inside with not too many tables, but we got seated right away because we went at 3pm. But right after we sat down the entire restaurant was packed! The server was super friendly and welcoming! She explained the fresh fish from Atl, their awards, and made some stop on Recommendations. What was so AWESOME was her willingness to make any roll Gluten free! So refreshing! She could sub out the crab on any roll. Thank you so very much for doing this, little gesture meant to much! We ordered a lot of rolls and got ginger salads! Wow on the salad with ginger dressing which is made in house. Ask for extra because it is that good! The rolls tasted fresh and had lots of flavor! The tuna was like butter! We had great rolls and great service! We highly recommend and plan your return when we travel through! Enjoy! read more

I have eaten at the sushi shack several times, either ordering the Sushi Regular or Tuna lovers combo's both dine in or carry out. The staff is always pleasant, and I always feel like I get way more than I pay for (please don't see this and raise your prices hahaha). The Sushi is always fresh and delicious. I highly recommend checking them out if your in Blairsville! read more

Still the best sushi in town! Service is always on point, and the food is fresh and delicious. read more

The Sushi Shack - Blairsville roll - Japanese Near Me - Blairsville, Georgia

Went for dinner. Food was good & average price for the area, but unless you can snag a seat at the sushi bar, there is no ambiance. You go up & order & they bring to your table. Place used to be a McDonald's. Sorry, hard to get over that. I drink wine & all they had were little bottles of Sutter Home, yuck! I'll go back but for takeout. read more

Only if i have to. Suppoesdly the best sushi for 50 miles and the other locations had even worse reviews...i can only imagine. First off the wait. I am NOT exaggerating when the wait was ONE HOUR from when our party of 6 ordered the food. Just....No The salmon and tuna were not deep, rich colors. More like 7 day old refrigerator fish, farm raised, not wild. Also the atmosphere...omg they had 2 ac units clearly set to 65, and ceiling fans to boot. I kid you not it was painfully cold, couldnt wait to leave. No hand rolls, no escolar, and the best roll they can do is a rainbow roll, ohh and thanks for the microwaved edamame in a box read more

Excellent sushi! Super fresh and delicious! My husband loves the rainbow roll and I always get yellowtail hand rolls. Recently had the poke bowl which was sooo good. I highly recommend Sushi Shack!! read more

Extremely good and fresh just like on the coast. Been several times and never disappointed.

Absolutely delicious. So fresh and the attention to detail is a bonus. Well named. Not your typical sushi restaurant.

Love their Poke bowl tuna, salmon or shrimp. Always fresh and good.

Cute little spot, great service, and delicious sushi. Couldn't have been a better experience. We'll be back! read more

One of the only places I eat out in Blairsville the best sushi wirh owner and staff that I have gotten to be great friends with 100% recommend read more

Wow!! Amazing, delicious food!! We had a chicken teriyaki bento box, a yardbird roll, and mahi pineapple roll and pork dumplings. Everything was a 10/10, fabulous service too! We will be back! read more

Decent quality sushi but the teriyaki is very mediocre and overall small portions. Considered good food for the mountains...

Been here once, I may return. I went in and was a little taken back when the guy I'm assuming owner was like are they ordering or just talking when a friend I'd not seen in a while was being friendly and saying hello (she's an employee and we weren't holding anyone up). I almost didn't order but we went ahead. The Miso soup was pretty good, however the seaweed salad was overpriced for the portion. The guy said we'd definitely be back because the sushi would be that good but it was alright. I've been all over the country and some of the best sushi I've had is in California, Florida and there's a place in southern Georgia that's pretty good. The sushi here is ok. It's not amazing but not bad either. If I need a sushi fix and don't want to do it at home I'll go. read more

Saw the new restaurant going to town & wanted to try it out. I crave sushi & enjoy a good roll. We had The Blairsville roll, Teriyaky Chichen Bento Box, Salmon Roll plus fountain drink. Place is nice & comfortable. The Teriyaky Chicken was good & tasty. The Blairsville Roll was excellent. Is a California roll topped with crab & crunchy tempura drizzeled with spicy mayo & sweet eel sauce on top. On the side we ate Salmon roll that was excellent & fresh. Glad we have this new place able to have good Sushi. read more

The Sushi Shack - Caterpillar roll & Hot Sake - Japanese Near Me - Blairsville, Georgia

I went for the 1st time this past Saturday and wow great food clean surroundings and pricing. The owner actually served me he has a great attitude and makes you feel at home. I'll definitely be a regular customer wish I'd gone there sooner. read more

I wasn't expecting much in a mountainside town but I was honestly impressed. We started with the dumplings. The shrimp were okay but I was told the pork were very good. I ordered the Salmon Lovers meal. The salad was good and I enjoyed the ginger dressing. The nigiri tasted fresh. I forgot to order my salmon roll inside out as I prefer so I ate it as served. It was good but again, I probably would have enjoyed it more inside out. The service was excellent and the food was good. I truly appreciated the way the ginger was cut. I would return in a heartbeat. read more

What a sensational sushi surprise. The salmon was so fresh and delicious, it is the best I have ever eaten. The Miso soup was sublime, the flavor tasted authentic and I didn't need to add anything. What a treat to dine there tonight on my birthday and find my old culinary buddy from 15ish years ago to be the owner! I've lived in Blairsville 19 years and have driven all the way to Atlanta for good sushi, but not anymore - because we have the BEST sushi right here local. I can't wait to sample the entire menu. Way to go Amber, I'm proud of you girl read more
