Best sushi and service I've ever had
by sashafl at Citysearch
This place is truly wonderful! I'm a vegetarian, so I'm usually not real fond of sushi restaraunts. However, Sushi Yoshi is a great find! I ate there three times a week when I lived in Atlanta, and now that I live in Fl it's the first place I eat when I head back to ATL. The service and wait staff are amazing! It's really nice to eat in a restaraunt where everyone is familiar with the menu, and can offer suggestions. They've even suprised me by cooking special vegetarian dishes that weren't on the menu to see if I'd like them. I've brought my fish eating friends too, and they rave about the generous portions and great sushi. This place is definitely worth trying!
- Pros: Easy to find and park location. Fast takeout. Quiet and genuine setting.
- Cons: Make reservations on weekends for faster seating

He serves Toro as long as a man?s hand!
by bgrantenator at Citysearch
Yoshi, who also owns Sushi Yoshi in Peachtree City, began his work in Atlanta at the well-respected Hachi Gushi on Windy Hill In Cobb County. Yoshi ventured out on his own in 1997 to open his own restaurant at Peachtree Industrial & Winters Chapel next door to the Tomato Japanese grocery store. He did very well there and earned everyone?s respect. He did so well that he moved over to his current and newly renovated location at Spalding and Holcomb Bridge in Norcross/Dunwoody.
The food is excellent. The sushi servings are about triple the size of other sushi bars. He serves Toro as long as a man?s hand! It takes three mouthfuls for one piece. The Uni is sweet, and he will warn you when it is not. Yoshi values and respects his customers.
There is also a full menu of authentic food that you would find anywhere in Japan, including Soba/Udon Noodle soups, Yakitoris, steaks, tempura, and of course a full range of very fresh sushi.
The wine list offers top shelf sake's such as Otokoyama and of course they have all the beers.
In a time when most sushi bars are starting to look like nightclubs, servers wearing black t-shirts, and dance music blaring while you pick from a curtailed list of basic Japanese food, it is nice to visit a traditional sushi bar with servers in Kimono's, actual Japanese people working in the restaurant, and on many nights, the crowd is also mostly Japanese.
95% of the time, the service has been excellent. The other 5% was owing to some misunderstanding, new hires in training, or some other forgivable malfunction. I really cannot imagine what happened to other reviewer. If her spelling is any indication, perhaps the miscommunication began on her side. ;-)
Yoshi does his best to provide the freshest seafood in the Atlanta area. I drive 44 miles round trip from downtown Atlanta to enjoy his efforts. Friends always want to return again and again. Need I say more?

Bad Bad Service - Avoid this restaurant
by maymalone at Citysearch
My husband and I went there to celebrate our anniversity. The waitress served the wrong food to my husband. We didn't noticed until we ate some of it. The waitress didn't even appologize, and even accused us didn't check the food before eating it. The waitress was so rude, and kept saying it's our fault. What a night!!!! We had to ate the food that we didn't order. It ruined our night!!! Never Never go back!!!!
