Sushi Hayakawa 1055 Howell Mill Road, Atlanta GA 30318 (770) 986-0010 ⭐⭐⭐⭐ ⭐  5-Stars UPDATE: This restaurant has moved from its original location on Buford Hwy and since then has been awarded its second Michelin Star for Omakasi-style dinners. This restaurant is my favorite sushi house of all time, the chef, Atsushi (Art) Hayakawa was the sushi chef at Atlanta's MF Sushi bar in Midtown. www.sushihayakawa.com the moment I step through the doors and pull the curtain to walk in everyone yells Greetings in Japanese. I always sit at my table order unlimited refills of hot green tea and start eating away at my delicious dinner.

  6405 Blue Stone Rd Suite 200, Sandy Springs, GA 30328 Phone:  (770) 637-2240 Menu :   theselectatl.com  ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4-Stars This restaurant though not new to the area, is next to the City Hall/Performing Arts Center. After many recommendations, I want to say that I finally tried out this restaurant. We didn't have reservations, so we walked in a grabbed a table for six. We all started with drinks. My friend had the Dragonbird which came in a bird glass. I had the House Old Fashioned, and another friend tried the Grantham. The drinks were good, so now we moved on to the appetizers. I ordered a (Butcher's Block) charcuterie board for the table and Duck Meatballs. For dinner, our table selected the Lamb Burger, the Roasted Chicken, the Pasta Primavera, and the Seafood pasta. The Food tasted great too even though the portions looked small, it was satisfying. So much so that we didn't even order dessert, instead we talked and had a great time. I came back for a date nig...
