Sushi Yoshino - Atlanta

We were craving sushi and decided to stop at this place for a quick roll. I was very surprised but this place. The Hawaiian Sunset Roll was DELICIOUS! The flavors did not lack at all, the jalapeño, the spicy mayo paired with FRESH fish. I am convinced the Sashimi at this place would be so good. We got to try a Spicy Crab Chip and it was amazing as well. The waitress was super nice and the place also seemed super nice for a dinner out. We will be back!

A delightful surprise! I stopped by on a whim and enjoyed a good meal. The sushi was well-prepared, and the ginger salad was excellent. The service was decent, though the chicken in the chicken teriyaki bento box was a bit dry. Still, I'm willing to give them another chance.

Sushi Yoshino is my go-to sushi place in the area. The staff are incredibly friendly and inviting. When it comes to the food, my favorite is the Sakura Roll, and the nigiri is consistently fresh. To top it off, the sushi chef always treats guests to a complimentary dish with delicious crab and spicy mayo at the end of the meal.

My friend and I thought Sushi Yoshino was OK. I give it 3 to 3.5 stars. This is an old school, low key, humble, mom and pop type sushi joint that I believe first opened in North Brookhaven in October 2009. It 's located in that small strip with the tight, awkward parking lot where Ashford Dunwoody and Johnson Ferry Roads merge split. Same dense strip as bars and restaurants Righteous Room, Moon Indian Cuisine, Wing Ranch, Hovan Mediterranean, and The Bat Ball Pub. If you can 't find parking in front of the restaurant, there 's another parking lot in the back. You can also park outside of Walgreens next door. In metro Atlanta, I think Sushi Yoshino is a serviceable neighborhood Japanese restaurant. It 's not a sushi destination, but if you 're craving sushi, it should scratch the itch. My friend and I are both sushi lovers nigiri sashimi . We both left this place full, but I think I was more satisfied with the food than my friend was. We visited for dinner and both got the Chirashi Don $23.95 each plus had two orders of the toro both nigiri and sashimi one order 2 pieces for $17.95 and saba sashimi $3 pieces for $6.95 . In general, the food was not bad, not great. I did enjoy everything, for the most part. I liked Sushi Yoshino 's Chirashi for a few reasons. The preparation and presentation was authentic with a nice assortment of thick slices of sashimi over sushi rice in a circular wooden bowl. It was straightforward, which is how I like my Chirashi. They didn 't skimp on any types of fish and they didn 't try to get cute or gimmicky with the presentation. The portion size was reasonable and filling. Check out the pictures of the Chirashi on this Yelp page. What you see is what you 'll get. My bowl came with pieces of hamachi yellowtail , kampachi amberjack , kani imitation crab , maguro tuna , masago smelt roe , sake salmon , tamago sweet egg , shiro maguro albacore tuna , and unagi smoked eel . There were two pieces of each except for the unagi one piece . My friend got a slightly different assortment because I asked the chef not to include ama ebi sweet shrimp in mine, due to an allergy, so I think the chef substituted in another fish for me. For one of the types of fish, both my friend and I could taste feel tiny ice crystals in the meat. I think it was the kampachi. It wasn 't ideal, but at the same time, I understood. We visited on a relatively slow Tuesday night and this lone sushi chef had to break out all sorts of fish for us. Speaking of which, I counted a total of three staff handling operations for the night: older Korean man sushi chef , older lady, and younger lady server . All three were fully utilized for the duration of our visit between us, a couple other dine in parties, takeout orders, and at least one patio party. Anyway, my point is the bowls of Chirashi that we got I thought were as decent as one could reasonably expect for the restaurant situation we were walking into on this particular night. All things considered, I appreciated the variety and quality of the types of fish served. As for the toro fatty tuna belly and saba mackerel , I was pleasantly surprised they had toro. Given it was a quiet Tuesday night, when we ordered the toro, I knew that the server probably would ask the chef if they had any, and she immediately turned around and asked as she left our table. Great that they had it. The toro was cut very thin and in strict, rectangular pieces. It wasn 't like any toro chu toro, o toro, etc. I 've seen or had before, really. Same for my friend, and we 've had our fair share of toro over our lifetimes. So, the toro portions weren 't great. However, I did think the toro tasted good, though not great. It had that rich, appetizing flavor to it, but it wasn 't as meaty nor as melt in your mouth buttery as most other toro I 've had, so the toro here is a step down. As far as details go, for the toro nigiri, the chef did put some wasabi between the piece of fish and the clump of rice. I like that. The saba was A OK. We had the saba served as sashimi. In this instance, I thought the slices looked thin, but my friend thought they looked about right. Anyway, it wasn 't bad. The fish was fresh, quality was good, and flavor was fine. The presentation of both the Chirashi Don bowls and the a la carte nigiri and sashimi was nice photogenic. I liked the plates and bowls that they use as well as the garnishes. The dishes were well put together. Sushi Yoshino isn 't a big restaurant. The patio is small and uncovered. It has an umbrella. Aside from nigiri and sashimi, the restaurant serves a good variety of appetizers e.g. agedashi tofu, hamachi jalapeno, tuna tataki , sushi rolls, salads, fried rice, ramen, udon, yaki soba, yaki udon, hibachi dinners, bento boxes, tempura, and other don rice bowls . Drink wise, they serve wine, sake, and Japanese beer. Lunch specials are available Monday Saturday, 11:30am 2:30pm. Service was polite and speedy.

This place is fantastic! The ambiance is incredibly relaxing, and the food is not only beautifully presented but also delicious. The service is outstanding. It’s a hidden gem in Ashford Dunwoody. I thoroughly enjoyed my entire visit. The chef was friendly and engaging. The hospitality was exceptional. I would rate it 10/10!
