The highly rate Michelin guide recommended sushi spot, we had to come & check it out. I have been here before for lunch, but dinner is always special. We were greeted upon arrival and everyone was so nice! Their service is top tier no complaints. We ended up getting various items from their menu. Starting off with Appetizers: Hanabi was delicious, the crunchiness of the rice and the tuna was well seasoned. Murasaki Truffle Fries unfortunately were a miss for me. They landed a little heavier than I expected and I did not want to keep eating it. They could have been a bit more crispier but overall not bad. Entrees: We ended up getting their signature Nigiris (toro & yellowtail) they were absolutely delicious! Honestly what made us like Tomo more. We ended up getting their 8 nigiri entree with California roll. I would give it 7/10. Dessert: we got their chocolate crepe cake and they gave us a bread pudding. The bread pudding was a bit too eggy for me but the chocolate crepe cake was absolutely rich & phenomenal. Overall we had a great time and they offer free valet! We will be back read more

Small business with big flavor! If you're looking for an upscale sushi restaurant in Atlanta, don't pass this one up. Most recently I had the pleasure of enjoying their limited experience, Tuna Tuesday, where a yellowfin tuna is shipped in from Osaka, Japan. The tuna is 100% sustainably raised from the egg at Kindai university. We watched the fish being cut for the freshest sushi. They put real wasabi between the tuna and rice-- it bites back! At this restaurant you will noticed the difference real wasabi provides. We also ordered the 24k roll--it's one of my favorites. Another good roll is the tomo roll. Sometimes they offer truffle on items if they have it. As far as service, they do an ok job. The small way they go above and beyond is that they do notice if you've been waiting too long for something you ordered and provide quick solutions to temper the wait of the sushi bar. This small restaurant is worth your big bucks if you're looking to experience upscale sushi. Plus, they make a perfect espresso martini! P.S. As far as parking is concerned, I'm not sure about it since I walk to this place. However, they do offer valet. read more

I came here with friends for their birthdays. The food was okay but nothing to write home about imo given the prices. A lot of food just felt kinda there, missing that wow factor. The service was a little slow, especially considering that it wasn't just. Perhaps I just didn't get the right things. Not bad, but not amazing either. read more

Love Tomo. Great place, location, and of course the food. The Omakase is pricey for what you get ... I feel that the quantity is less than when Tomo San was there and you were doing it at the counter. Quality is still excellent, but we had to order a couple of rolls off the regular menu after spending $250+ each for the Omakase, as we were still hungry (and i had a snack when we got home :)). Regular menu is fantastic and decent value. read more

Just had lunch earlier this week at your Atlanta location with a friend i had not seen in a while. We were both extremely disappointed by the service and what took place. Made reservations for 1:45pm and after spending an hour there, we were brought the check and felt pressured to leave without even asking if we wanted other drinks or desert which we were looking to try. We had ordered champagne and sushi and felt extremely rushed by a very unfriendly staff. It was disappointing considering that I selected the establishment because it is Michelin preferred and was surprised to be rushed out the way we were when holding a Michelin rating. You should not allow reservations for 1:45pm if you do not plan to provide appropriate service. This is not supposed to be a fast food experience I will not be going back! read more

First time trying Tomo after hearing MANY high accolades. The restaurant definitely lives up to the hype (and Michelin recommendation)! I'd say it's currently the best sushi option in Buckhead (sorry Umi) First off they have a MASSIVE menu. That's usually a red flag for me. How can they perfect everything on something that essentially has the same word count as a novella? Well, they do everything here to a level of perfection that I didn't think was possible. I was super impressed with the cocktails (incredibly bold Japanese flavors) and their Negrini (which changes daily). I got the Katsu as my entree and the only reason why this is a 4 star review is the pork was a little over cooked (however, the flavors were delicious!!) I'm coming back to do the coveted 4 seat omakase sometime soon!! read more

I personally LOVED this place. Everything we ordered from appetizers to rolls to desserts were all a delight! I usually don't lean towards sushi rolls, but these are some of the best I've had! The garlic pepper toro roll and the 24k roll were both 5/5 stars! Everything we ordered we loved! The desert here is amazing as well! Service was good and attentive, parking here is Valet only so keep that in mind! read more

I knew my husband and I would be in for a special experience the moment we walked in (without reservatations) on a Monday after work. The ambiance is calming with dim lighting (but not too dim) and a friendly staff. While Tomo itself is large, the decor makes it feel intimate. (Note on parking: We parked in the attached garage only to learn that parking is not validated however valet parking is complimentary. That is something to remember next time - and there WILL be a next time!) The menu is extensive. We enjoyed the soft crab sushi and salmon entree, miso soup and the seaweed salad - all delicious. We also ordered green tea which tasted great on a cool weather night. All in all - this will become a favorite neighborhood spot in Buckhead. No issues other than the parking which I flagged above! read more

I was so excited about trying this spot after finding it on a list with Michelin star restaurants and recommendations, but it was not great. The real Cali roll was ok, and the lobster roll was pretty good. Both were overpriced for lunch portions. The sashimi is "fish forward" but really all that meant was just rice, hidden wasabi, and clumsily sliced fish. Maybe it was the fact that we just had amazing Japanese food before going to Tomo, but we expected better. The worst part of the meal was the fact that the only reservation available online was at 2pm, but the place was empty. Then the waitress quickly let us know the kitchen closes at 2:30 as she rushed us to order everything we want immediately. Just poor communication and planning on their part. Maybe dinner is better, but I'm not going to return to see. read more

So for a Michelin Guide restaurant I guess my expectations were a bit higher? The ambiance and decor are very calm and fitting for a place like this but it just felt like an above average Sushi place to me. If I could I'd rate it a 3.5 but I rounded up. The service was fine and the waitress was helpful, just not super descriptive. The Tempuras were good but they weren't the best I've ever had and it felt like there was more batter than actual shrimp. All the sashimi was fresh so that was good and their lychee martinis were a perfect mix - not too sweet and not too strong. All the rolls we had were also very good and fresh. Overall everything was good, but I can't put my finger on it but something felt like it was missing? But st the same time, I could've felt like my expectations were too high for this place. read more

You walk in and it's not a huge place but has enough room. It's elegant without being pretentious. The romantic low lighting is inviting and perfect for a date night. The service was excellent. Our server was so knowledgeable about the menu and how to pair it. I felt the food translated to Michelin Star quality. I will also say I was asked to go here or Nobu and I chose Tomo and would do it again. read more

Wow was that an absolute disappointment. I came in for an early dinner for one and ordered the omakase at $200 and a bottle of premium sake for $45 I was hopeful about the meal but man did it disappoint. The first courses were so overwhelmed by the "sauces" you couldn't taste the fish. The lamb was over done and just one little bitty chop that as under seasoned with no sauce. I was still hungry after my courses which by the way was only like 6 for $200. Seriously I've had better sushi at all you can eat joints in Vegas. I spent over $400 bucks because I added some pieces at the end and a whiskey. read more

Pricing was all over the place for mediocre sushi. Wouldn't recommend. Service was good but getting 2 small cuts of sashimi when ordering al la carte wasn't really worth the experience. read more

This is my first review since Tomo transitioned to new management. San and Martin are now owners in the business and directly involved in the business. Interior design and aesthetics have been refreshed and are tastefully done with nice attention to detail. The menu has been revamped, but all of my favorites have been retained, which is key: kampachi Serrano, kimi dai, shima ahi, etc! They have added some fun new menu items, reflecting more innovation and new ingredients like A5 Wagyu. This has broadened the menu. Front of house is still solid. We still mostly work with May, but Tee and Taya remain and many new quality servers have joined. I'd request management to broaden out their sake list and introduce more innovative cocktails. read more

Food was amazing in this establishment! I started with the Ube colada, so delicious! We ordered the taro fries with truffle aioli and tuna for appetizers, both very delicious. We opted for sushi rolls (lobster, squid, scallops and house special) but they offer omakase upon request. Service was great and our waitress always came prepared with drink refills. Only reason why I didn't give it 5 stars is ambiance is lacking. The music is way too loud so not a great place to have dinner if you want to talk and hear what your friend is saying. read more

Amazing experience! My sister and her husband took us here while in town for my birthday. Our server (by request) was T, she was incredible! All of the fish was top notch, we ordered a variety of things to try, my favorite of all was the garlic pepper toro. The desserts were phenomenal. My favorite was the matcha crepe cake, but I am biased because I love anything matcha. The passion fruit cheesecake was bursting with flavor and I loved the different consistencies. The bread pudding was not traditional, it was more flan like to me. Overall, the ambiance is great for a date night or special occasion. We got seated in a nice secluded booth/table, which was perfect and private compared to the other seating options. read more

10/10! I would eat here every day if I could. One of the best sushi's spots I have been eaten at to date. The ambience is very nice walking in. Beautiful spot to be! They do validate parking! The menu is great! I wish they did have a fried rice option, that is the only thing they are missing. We had the best seared salmon sashimi with truffle! The crispy rice was 2nd best Ive ever tried! I wish they put more spicy tuna on top it was very thinly layered. Their ritz roll I could eat all day long! Definitely order two of them because it's so buttery and fresh! Their nigiri is so cute and small but definitely fresh and flavorful! The service is super attentive and kind. They make great suggestions! But we ordered a roll and it did not come out as fresh as our first few dishes so we sent it back because we did not like the flavor and our servers Attitude totally and she didn't end our night as kind as she started. Overall great experience and will be back when we are in town next! read more

Having lived in Japan for a few years, Tomo's hosting of a Tuna Carving caused me to book six months in advance. Our party was truly excited, but what Tomo actually offered was anything but a Tuna Carving "experience." Sitting at the bar in front of a televised hockey game with zero atmosphere or connection to the carving completely under whelmed. Diners around us seemed to be feeling the same way, and yet when I asked to privately speak to a management team member, she was downright rude. While I must admit that the food was half decent, given the number of excellent high end sushi and Japanese omakase restaurants in Atlanta, I will not be returning. Misrepresenting the event was unfortunate, but then making it the fault of the customer showed me a side of the team I do not wish to experience going forward. read more

I expected Tomo to be good bc of all the rave reviews, but it far exceeded my expectations! The HANABI is a must try! It has so much flavor, I could have eaten just that til I was full and been happy! I'm glad I didn't though bc the Chirashi was fresh, and the garlic pepper toro was fantastic! The valentines dessert was so good we actually ordered a second one. Our waitress was attentive as was all the staff. They balanced good service with efficiency really well. The surprising part was the bill! We had five glasses of wine, an app, 2 entrees, and 3 desserts for under $200. Amazing! Will definitely be back! read more

Best sushi lunch in Atlanta. Probably the best lunch deal too for price and quality. Authentic Japanese sushi place formerly located in Cobb County for years before relocating to Buckhead a dozen years ago. We got the sushi lunch and chirashi don. Ambience is great for business lunches or quiet enough to get away from it. Bar is good spot to sit down if solo but the sitting area is spacious enough despite the long row bench. TV usually playing sports to distract you. Staff is attentive and quick; they understand that some people can't take a three hour lunch so food comes out relatively quick too. Dinner is a bit different vibe and there are other choices in the area but for lunch? No question come here for a good meal. read more

We came in for a special Mother's Day treat Omakase on the Friday night before. The ambiance is fantastic with elegant, clean, straight lines throughout and fresh roses on every table. The food and service are really where Tomo excels. Everything was timed perfectly, and we thoroughly enjoyed our vantage point from the Omakase sushi bar (akin to a Chef's table experience) where we could watch both our and others' dishes being made (the knife skills and nigiri shaping were impressive and mesmerizing). Every bite was fantastic, and it is nearly impossible to pick a favorite course; however, some standouts include the abalone in dashi, kegani, and all of the nigiri. Our Omakase ended up just being the two of us (as opposed to dining with strangers at the same seating time), and the menu was custom printed, acknowledging our special occasion (nice touch). The only part of the experience I wish I could change is the Omakase reservation process - there are a few components of it that, as an IT professional, make me cringe from the personal data security perspective. Outside of that one concern, Tomo is an easy 5-stars! read more

We went here for date night -- the decor and ambiance was perfect for that. Our waiter was attentive and helpful and waters were refilled. The food however, could have been better. For our appetizer, we got the king salmon tartare which I wished was a little more tart and salty. Then we ordered the spicy scallop roll, MR roll and sushi-sashimi. The spicy scallop roll was a miss for me; the "scallop" comes separately in a chunky oily sauce in a sauce pitcher that you pour over the roll. There was barely any scallop and the consistency of the sauce was somewhat off putting and the taste was not impressionable. The MR roll was good and the salmon skin added a nice crunch. My favorite was probably the sushi- sashimi entree because the sashimi was fresh. We also ordered the lychee martini and Okinawa sunrise which were great! read more

Service is attentive and knowledgeable, enhancing the overall experience. For a top-notch omakase, this place is a standout choice. read more

Tomo is a sleek and classy Japanese restaurant located on the first floor of an office building off Peachtree Rd NE. It's kind of hidden. They offer valet and validated self-parking for 2 hours. We had reservations and had to wait a few minutes to be seated as they were preparing our table. The ambience is sleek and modern, perfect for a dinner date. Our waitress was so sweet, funny, and very attentive--she was always checking on us. I started with the sour apple cocktail, which was sweet like a candy and my friend had the vodka soda. We tried the shrimp and vegetable tempura appetizer and it was was served hot and tasty. We decided to share a couple rolls: the yellowtail roll and soft shell crab roll. The yellowtail was good but mostly consisted of rice with a small portion of fish inside. The soft shell crab was flavorful but each bite was massive so I had to take it apart and eat it piece by piece. We ended the night with the chocolate crepe cake, it's a unique dessert--very strong dark chocolate and cocoa powder flavor. I had the lavender mimosa cocktail as a nightcap and it was nice, tasted like a bubbly champagne. Overall, not the best sushi I've ever had but a nice restaurant to visit for the ambiance and wonderful service. read more

If you love sushi, this is a must try! I am surprised, took me so long to come Tomo! The restaurant itself, screeches, elegance, and beauty. There's definitely falls safely in the fine dining category. Our server was super attentive, and made some excellent suggestions. The flow of our food and wine was just perfect( didn't feel too rushed nor too slow) For appetizers we started off with the truffle fries( must have), tuna tartare,Shina aji spicy carpaccio, beef tataki. I can't decide which appetizer I like the most. each was unique and absolutely delicious! For sushi we tried Mr. Roll, hanabi,98 degrees and ocean 6 roll. The last roll was my favorite. We rounded up with the bread pudding chocolate cube and chocolate crepes for dessert. I definitely enjoyed the bread pudding the most. Only downside is that they do not validate parking( we paid $12) however, we were told later that they were stamp the valet ticket. Overall: a fantastic experience! Will definitely come back. read more

The food was absolutely fantastic, well seasoned and the inspiration from the chef definitely shines through on every plate. The purple potato truffle fries battered with tempura is a exciting twist on a elevated classic appetizer and the shishito peppers were charred perfectly to enhance their sweetness without offering any bitterness. I've been able to try king salmon sushi from a lot of upscale sushi restaurants all over the whole and the salmon sushi at tomo is easily in my top 3 based on how the fish is sliced and the overall composition. The salmon melts in your mouth, perfect temperature and not even remotely chewy, I could eat it every day. 10/10 restaurants I look forward to eating here again read more

As an out of towner, I forgot how good fresh sashimi taste. The server pointed out that my fish was brought in fresh that day. The elegant restaurant is wide open, high ceilings with outdoor balcony seating. I chose to seat at the bar since I was alone in town on business. The presentation of the food was gorgeous. The pictures don't do it justice. The staff was great, food fabulous, a little pricy yet worth it. read more

I have eaten at several Japanese sushi places in the usa and Europe and this one is just an ordinary overpriced restaurant .

What a lovely birthday meal! My girlfriend and I dined here last night for a belated birthday celebration. We arrived at 5:30 for a 6pm reservation. We anticipated having to wait but luckily the restaurant was pretty empty and we were seated right away. We were greeted by three smiling faces upon arrival and very friendly customer service throughout our entire meal. Since we haven't seen each other face-to-face for a year, my girlfriend and I had a lot to catch up on! Between chatting and eating, our meal lasted 2.5 hours but the restaurant was fairly empty and we were never rushed to finish our meal or leave. We enjoyed two glasses of Malbec - they have a great one here - and powered through a ton of food. We asked the server for her recommendations and she did not steer us wrong. We devoured the following: - SNOW CRAB JALAPENO: snow crab rolled in cucumber, cilantro, garlic jalapeno sauce - KAMPACHI SERRANO: 6 slices of kampachi sashimi, garlic, thinly sliced serrano pepper, yuzu soy sauce. - SUSHI-SASHIMI: 1 spicy tuna roll, 6 nigiri, 12 sashimi - SASHIMI: 16 pc chef's choice - HOUSE SPECIAL: tuna, yellowtail, salmon, white fish, smelt egg, eel, avocado - SPICY SCALLOP: seared scallop, arugula, spicy mayo, smelt egg, shiitake, avocado Our entire meal was very delicious! Our hands-down favorite was the Kampachi Serrano, followed by the snow crab jalapeno. The sashimi platters were beautiful and very fresh. We both didn't really care for the two rolls - and the server says they are the two most popular rolls, so maybe pass on the rolls next time. Finally, they surprised me with a mille crepe cake for dessert! How sweet. PS. They validate parking for two hours. Enjoy! read more

It has been tradition for a decade or more to take my twin daughters to get sushi on their birthday, as it is their favorite food since they were like three. It so happened this year that we would be travelling, so I had to pick a quality sushi restaurant based only on recommendations. Tomo came highly rated and well-reviewed by professional writers. For the life of me I can't understand why. The atmosphere is very nice and other than fact that it took two hours to serve us so that by the time we were leaving the wait staff was clearly more concerned with preparing to close than attending on us, I have no objection to the service. The problem fundamentally is the fish. This is grocery store quality sushi at a premium price. Indeed, I could name a grocery store with better sushi. Like Italian, the quality of sushi is in the quality of the ingredients, and this was terrible. Supposedly the fish is imported from Japan, though given Georgia's proximity to two coasts I wonder why you'd bother except for some pacific specialties. But I'm convinced some unscrupulous importer is sending low grade stuff thinking uncultured gaijin will know no better and based on the reviews he seems to be right. The fish tasted twice frozen and lacked flavor and texture. Soft and mushy and might as well been canned. Nor am I convinced that the so-called sushi chefs would know what to do with a whole fish if presented with one. My daughters prefer maki but even they commented that something seemed off on the fish forward rolls. Since I was mostly eating nigiri where the poor quality of the fish couldn't be hidden, I knew what it was. The specialties of the house consisted of covering up the fish with a lot of strong flavors, which suggests someone either has no idea how to prepare sushi or else knows their fish is garbage. The best thing I had was the seared scallop roll, but pairing scallops with a rich oily sauce seems a waste since you could then barely taste the scallop. Proper technique is to enhance the flavor not cover it up. Nigiri is served in two small portions rather than one single large portion. This isn't bad as it makes it easier to pop each bite in your mouth, but don't think you are getting the equivalent of 2 pieces for $11. This is one portion in two bites. And, $11 would be fine if the fish was there but it wasn't. I ordered among other things Japanese yellowtail, eel, mackerel, albacore, sea bass, and omelet. (I don't order blue fin anymore owing to it being overfished.) I tried to get a good range of light to strong fish. None of it was good or well prepared except ironically the domestic sea bass, which had good flavor and a nice al dente bite to it. Even the tamago was substandard, overly wet not seasoned particularly well. This is one of the worst meals I've ever paid for at a 'fine dining' restaurant. It's an embarrassment to the entire city of Atlanta that this is well reviewed. Go Kroger and save yourself $300 dollars. read more
