Very fresh. We went on a Sunday night and the food was great. The seaweed salad was very fresh, the Rainbow roll was great and the crab tempura roll was great too. We asked for light sauce and the roll was great. Presentation of the food was good; as was the wine. The wait staff is a bit unprofessional as we were unsure about the young man who seated us as he never spoke, but just pointed us in the direction he wanted us to go; however, the waitress was nice. There seemed to be a lot of 20 somethings hanging around, so I’m not sure what that was all about; and there is a bug zapper just outside the kitchen, past the bar — not a good look there. Overall, the place is decorated great and the vibe is cool(minus the bug zapper of course). We will go back and check it out again totally because of the sushi chef; he really knows his stuff.

Been here for dinner sushi twice, nothing special, BUT! Got sushi to go for a lunch one day and it was clearly a day or two old, there was no doubt, and it was nasty

Christmas night, my daughter and I headed out to see what might be open for dinner. We found this place. There were only two other families having dinner. Shortly after being seated, a gentleman came in saying he could not find a liquor store open and asked if they would sell him a could of bottles of wine!!! Sure enough, as everyone in the restaurant watched in amazement, he left with two large bottles! Not 5 minutes later, in walks a loud talk young guy wanting to buy 12 beers! At first they must have said no, however he kept on in a loud voice using a few foul words to describe how he would go to the bar and order 12 beers and«what if the other 11 just disappeared». With this, they went to get him his beer as well as a sesame chicken! While he sat at the bar continuing to speak loudly, a female waitress, noticing at this time my daughter and I had been watching this whole illegal action take place, came over to our table to see if we needed anything! I explained to her what they were doing was illegal and she said, «yes, yes». Then she went and told the young male waiter something and he explained to the customer he could not do it! With that, the loud mouth customer threw up his arms as he walked out the door saying Scroge had ruined his Christmas! I will never get this place anymore of my money as I felt like we were on an episode of Mystery Diners ! I intend to report this to the county permit dept!

Great sushi. The crazy roll was delicious. Shrimp and scallops hibachi was good with a nice variety of veggies. We did not sit where it is cooked in front of you. Will definitely visit again, would probably order more sushi over hibachi. Yum yum sauce is sweet and thick.

We really like this place. They have great sushi, and the hibachi chefs are really fun as well. I’ve liked everything I’ve tried, and service has always been good as well. I’ve recommend it.

We won’t eat here again. Our order was made up of sushi and Chinese dishes. I warned my family away from about ½ the sashimi and sushi because the fish did not look and smell fresh. My family told me that the California roll is better at PUBLIX .The ginger, alarmingly was not fresh either! The Chinese dishes — General Tso’s and sesame chicken were mostly balls of dough with little pieces of Chicken inside. The sauce was nice on both . Miso soup was a 5 out of 10. The ginger salad dressing was yummy and fresh.

The place was packed when I went but it had just opened so could’ve just been the buzz. After trying their sushi it doesn’t surprise me that the crowds aren’t here anymore. I like the raw stuff and so many rolls had chopped tuna, and chopped salmon. Bleh. I always get salmon nigiri because a good piece is amazing and smooth like butter… Theirs was like stringy fish. The atmosphere was super stiff. I like hibachi places that are lively and make you feel comfortable to be chatting with the strangers at your grill. Here it seemed very awkward for the guests. No music. Quiet dining room. Super disappointing since this place is so close to my house. Still hoping it could turn around. Nothing very good in West Cobb yet. Definitely worth the short drive to Thaicoon.

Food is very good. I had the filet and shrimp hibachi lunch special and 2pc eel sashimi. I was the only person there at the time. Service was good as well. Unfortunately, the music in this restaurant is very loud and obnoxious. They only play really aggressive dubstep and house music and it is really off putting in such a nice place. Mind you, I actually like that kind of music in the right setting. At a concert or party, it works. The music being pumped into the whole restaurant is the reason I would not bring my parents or older friends here. They would hate the music and not enjoy their experience. Again, food and service were good, but I probably won’t come back until they tone down the music.

I have been to this place several times. I have had the sit down at the table and the Hibachi several times and I have never yet to have bad service or a bad meal. The staff is wonderful. Friendly, attentive, funny. Also have a great time when we go and always have too much food!!! We had family in town and looking for something different to do with them, so I took them there. We did the Hibachi Grill and the cook was great! My 2 year old loves going there and the cook was very entertaining and made sure everyone was included. We had a party of 10. I get the Sushi everytime I go and I always like to try something different, and the staff always takes the time to help me figure out what I want. I am not a Sushi expert and half the time I have no idea what things are, I just know that they taste good. lol. Again, small place, not your Shogun type of place, not big. But I like the smaller places. Seem to get better service, and the staff seems to get to know what you like and don’t. I hope this place lasts, seems like alot of these kind of places don’t stay around too long.

Terrible lunch. Had the bento box… yuck. Old California rolls, dry rice and the shrimp were small. Would not go back. Oh yeah. The service was slow and it wasn’t even crowded!

Nothing spectacular. It satisfied my taste for sushi. The place was clean and service prompt. I had the choose 2 rolls for lunch for 8.99 not bad.

The first time I went, it was great, but every time after has been a huge disappointment. The service is slow the tables are sticky. It is a tacky atmosphere. Just an uncomfortable place to be.

Given the other reviews, this place was a terrible disappointment. One of the hallmarksf a good hibachi restaurant is the showmanship of the chef. Ours had none. Watching this man perform was like watching a line cook at a Greek diner. He seemed bored and didn’t interact with us except to ask how we wanted the beef cooked. If the food were good, that might be overlooked, but it was as lackluster as his performance. The fried rice was oily and the onions in it were scorched. The beef was overcooked despite our request fior med rare and my wife;‘s shrimp were rubbery and tasteless. To add to the disaster, the chef decided to clean the grill and then the grease tarp at its edge as we ate. He scraped out the grease trap and then showed us the results of his labor, proudly displaying the gunk about sic inches from my plate! The hot tea we ordered arrived AFTER we had finished dinner, at the same time as the check. That was the only time we saw the waiter. An unmitigated disater.

I was disappointed in my lunch. I ordered the scallop lunch and there were 2 ½ scallops on my plate. Everyone at our table commented on how stingy the portion was. The others dining with us seemed to like their lunch, but I picked up the tab and felt very ripped off when it came to $ 90(including tip) I basically filled up on rice.

I didn’t have high expectations when we decided to try Atami, it used to be Sapporo. Very pleasantly surprised. Top notch service, great food and creative presentation. Everything we had was really good, but my favorite was the salmon tartar. Prices were about the same as Ru San but they seem to be focusing on quality over quantity.

As a sushi lover I am always on the lookout for new restaurants with different types of sushi. Atami Grill & Sushi recently opened up and peaked my interest. I just tried it with my best friend and the both of us are in love with their sushi. Even though they had low staff and cheesy music, I was not disappointed when it came to the sushi. The ingredients were incredibly fresh and had a beautiful presentation plus everything was prepared in a timely manner. I felt like I wanted to try more and more. SUSHIFEVER! Definitely give this place a try; I know I will be revisiting. That was definitely the best sushi I’ve had in a long time.

This place is NOT like the old sushi dump from before. This location use to be called Sapporo?! It sucked, and it’s long gone. Give Atami a try. Go to Atami Marietta on Facebook. Sushi is GREAT! Staff is great! It’s the best sushi in West Cobb.
