Best of Atlanta: Best Japanese

Sushi Hayakawa Oral Pleasures, Critics

Yet another excellent Buford Highway eatery, Sushi Hayakawa serves classic Japanese cuisine and was founded by the masterful Atsushi ‘Art’ Hayakawa, who is the sole chef at the establishment. If you’re lucky enough to get in - walk-ins are usually turned away - and the wait for a reservation is about three weeks, you will enjoy authentic, no-frills sushi with a highlight on the fish’s subtle flavor. Avid sushi lovers take note: this past May, Hayakawa introduced a 14-course omakase, a two-and-a-half hour dining experience for two. Reservations are mandatory. More at Best Japanese
