5/31/2019If you love authentic sushi and love raw fish, go here. If you haven't, I feel bad for you cuz you've been missing out!!
I was born in Japan. Lived there for 13yrs. I ate sushi everywhere but circle sushi is hands down the best.
The sushi rice is... 10 million times better than other places. And the price and quality. Wow. I choose this place over Umi. Uh yes I've been to Umi. But I thought the quality of fish was the same. The only difference between them is that they put caviar and truffles on sushi. Which is... not very authentic. But good. But if I have to choose between them, I'd def choose Circle sushi. Even if they were both free, I'd still choose circle sushi.
My only complaint is that I want scallops on chirashi A again for lunch. It used to make my day lol
8/20/2019This place is expensive for what you get.
Service was poor. No water offered. Also, I arrived 35 minutes prior to close and they made it obvious that my time was limited and my presence was unwanted.
Food wise the miso is good. But a spicy tuna hand roll for $7 without cucumber or avocado is $$$
I asked for everything without Wasabi, but salmon skin will had Wasabi in it, when I pointed that out the waitress just shrugged.
7/5/2019Really!!! I've been to Circle Sushi several times and it was ok. I was not impressed by it, but it was decent food. Also many people were raving about it, so I took MM to lunch here. It's his first time. We had to drove out of the way just to try this place. I thought I would get some good remarks from MM, since it should be a solid restaurant. When we first walked in, I saw the rating was 100 and I was really happy to see that. MM is very critical about the place he is eating. So I told myself that's a good sign.
Once we sat down, I looked at the menu, they do have the lunch special Bento box, but they charge you extra $$$ if you want to switch your choices on the basic items. I would understand if you want eel or some fancy sushi, you would charge a little bit more, but this menu charged you on the beef and salmon teriyaki lunch box where most of other restaurants have the same price on those choices. Also you can only choose salad or soup for your lunchbox. With the price they are charging, it should come with both!! So I was a little bit annoyed by that. But I was thinking, at least the food should be decent, so I did not mind too much of it.
After we sat down, I saw a big fly was circling the tables....that immediately put me in very bad mood. There is a reason I come to this restaurant and eat...to have a clean and enjoyable meal....but seeing a fly...that just gross me out. If I want a fly with my meal, I will get a hotdog and eat outside the 7-11 convenient store. This restaurant has already charge more than what they are supposed to, I demand to have a nice and enjoyable lunch....so I told the waiter about it....the waiter just laughed about it and did not do anything..... I thought Jacky Chen could kill a fly with his chopsticks... I did not ask the waiter to do the same, but at least apologize and do something.... but nothing was done about that issue. So I ended up used the green light soy sauce bottle to try to kill the fly while I was eating . But the fly was too quick....
When the entry finally came, I had the chicken teriyaki with the eel roll. The chicken was so hard, you can't even bite it down...and the meat was not marinated....Really....you are serving lower than shopping center food hall grade food to people?!!!! I thought at least the restaurant would put some efforts on the food they are serving
So very very disappointed....so for whoever reading this review, if you want to have a good Japanese bento box value. go to TOMO, and their price is way better than here......
6/24/2019This place was recommended to me by my Japanese friend so it is one of the most traditional Japanese spots in town. I've visited Circle Sushi multiple times and have yet to be disappointed. The sushi is yummy and always tastes fresh.
I would recommend getting any of their sushi rolls or grilled fish dishes.
During my last visit I arrived on a Sunday at 7:30 pm and got seated immediately. It's kind of noisy (with the amount of people talking) and there was no music playing. The noise didn't bother me too much though.
My spicy tuna roll had avocado in it and it tasted super creamyyy yum! I think it was called the Green Monster roll.
5/26/2019I love this place. Second time going.
The first visit was on a busy Saturday. I just went in for a miso soup because I wasn't feeling well. After waiting for a while they came back with a cup and said it was free. How nice.
Second visit was yesterday and I sat down for sushi at the bar around 2 PM, close to when they close. It wasn't as busy as last time I came.
First, the place is very clean and comfortable. The atmosphere is calm.
Their sushi menu is massive and they have some very interesting original rolls I'd love to try. I ordered the Vegetable A roll which has a Japanese omelette and avocado inside. Very delicious and refreshing. I'd like to go back and try more rolls. Check out their menu online. They have so many interesting combinations to choose from. I'm psyched this place is right down the road from me
ALSO: GPS WILL LIE TO YOU AND SAY THIS IS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE SHOPPING COMPLEX. IT IS RIGHT NEAR THE ARBY'S.

Circle Sushi won't wow you with their food, but this restaurant certainly balances food quality, ambiance, and price well. I stopped in during lunch and had a satisfying meal. What I tried:
*****
I. FOOD & DRINK: They offer different sushi rolls and other Japanese izakaya eats. I tasted the following:
*Super Crazy Spicy Salmon Roll ($12): Comes with salmon and avocado. Thought they tasted standard, but at the price point I can't complain much about it.
*Agedashi Tofu ($5): Hmm. The bread doesn't fall off of the tofu when cutting into it, and the sauce around it tastes fantastic. I would order this anyway.
*Gyoza ($5): Pan fried well. Standard.
II. SERVICE: The food came out in less than ten minutes, and all the staff members there wore a smile. No complaints here.
III. AMBIANCE & DECOR: A bit dark for me, but I have no issues with the place. Seems like a good number of locals go here on dates.
IV. PRICES: Very affordable for the quality of sushi one gets.
V. OVERALL: I'll have to return for their chirashi bowls. Great value.
10/17/2019This is one of my favorite sushi restaurants in Atlanta. We actually drive from Midtown to Dunwoody to eat here. The sushi is excellent, friendly service, and they have great lunch and happy hour sushi specials. You can't go wrong with Chirashi or ANYTHING that involves hamachi.
1/25/2019Authentic, fresh, and always great quality. The toro is the best! We've dined in and picked up before, but dining in was a better experience, especially with fried items.
3/20/2019Consistently good! Been here 3 times over the last 6 weeks on different evenings and have every time received excellent service and excellent quality sushi/nigiri.
Have also had and enjoyed the pork gyozu.
Only negative was the calimari appetizer that came out with a solid chew, indicative of over fried, but the manager was very responsive and removed it from the bill.
Overall would highly recommend!!!
6/28/2019I went last night with a good buddy. My wife had been here previously and said the food was very good. I ordered the omakasi bento box to get a taste of a few different dishes. We also had the agedashi tofu and yellow tale jalapeno apps. Agedashi tofu is always a test when I go to a new Japanese restaurant. It did hot disappoint. The yellow tale was very fresh but I did not like the combo with the jalapeno.
The bento was huge. They first brought out the cooked food which included a lamb chop (very tasty), a Tai snapper head and a mashed potato croquette. The Tai was delicious, very moist and favorable meat. You have to get a little messy eating this but totally worth it. The croquette was also very good, fried with a panko coating.
Next came the cold bento, again a large portion including a mini Cali roll, a very nice assortment of sashimi including some yummy toro and I believe a nice portion of snapper. Very good and fresh.
Why not 5 stars? Usually when entering a traditional Japanese restaurant, you are greeted with a warm welcome. We sat at the sushi bar and the owner never once acknowledged our presence. He said nothing during the entire meal, not even making eye contact. Not even a thank you as we were leaving. It left me with a strange feeling. It was an older man who I assumed to be the owner.
Very good food but next time, if I go back, I'll sit at a table and avoid the cold reception. Or go to Tanaka.
11/18/2018Very authentic and fresh fish. The service is friendly. Food comes out in a reasonable amount of time. I love this place and always get the Chirashi B bowl. Everything in this bowl does not disappoint and the sushi rice is one of the best I have had.
9/13/2019The food was great the prices were fair at the menu was not extensive coming from California the flavors were amazing but our favorite place in Southern California had many many choices circle has few sushi rolls but all are delicious
10/28/2018I was very impressed by the quality of sushi here! My friend and I ordered a tempura appetizer with shrimp, asparagus, and pumpkin. The batter was light it came with a dipping sauce. Not the best tempura I've had, but a nice way to start the meal.
For dinner I ordered a salmon and avocado roll and the Crazy Spicy Tuna Roll. Both were delicious and I ate every bite. The salmon and tuna were both bright and fresh. I will definitely be back!

I have been coming to Circle Sushi for years and always had a good experience. This is located in Sandy Springs right next door to YouFit.
The staff is very friendly and very professional. I normally come during lunch because the prices for dinner a little more expensive. I noticed that the lunch menu has changed quite a bit. It use to be this huge book and now is only a long sheet of paper back and forth.
My go to dish is always chirashi bowl. It comes in 2 sizes: A and B. A is $12 and B is $20. What makes this unique is the eel and the eel sauce in the middle of the rice. It is a nice touch! During my last visit I ordered the crazy salmon roll which is just a salmon roll with salmon on top. It was simple but the salmon was buttery and fresh. The lunch menu does not have gyoza but they will make it if you ask.
Overall, a nice experience. To be honest I think the prices are a little expensive but the quality makes it worth it.

This place has the best bento box. I've been here twice and since I'm preggo, I can't have any raw sushi but the bento boxes are so yummy. My boyfriend always orders a ton of nigiri and says their fish is fresh and really good.
The first time we came, we were a bit taken back since the outside looks really crappy and there is just a sign that says Sushi. BUT plenty of parking since it's next to a Publix. Once you get inside, it's a different story.
Menu has a lot of items to choose from. The only downside is service isn't that great. The first time I went, we sat for a good 15 mins before anyone came to our table (we almost got up and left). But our server was awesome and gave us a free appetizer and extra sushi pieces to compensate. The second time we went, our bill was incorrect and we were charged extra but they fixed the problem when we told them.
Minus the service, we look forward to going back b/c the food really is good.
7/16/2019I had The Green Monster and it was delicious. Very fresh fish and fast service. They keep it super cold so bring a sweater!
10/7/2019I trusted the Yelp reviews and was not disappointed. Very good sushi, very friendly staff, fair price for what was received. Recommend it for date night or family outing.
1/29/2018Circle Sushi is located off of Roswell Road in the same strip mall as YouFit Atlanta and Arby's. Publix is located on the other side of the strip mall. I knew I had to come here when I saw the sign outside. All it says is "Sushi." While that sign probably isn't the most appealing to most people, definitely do not let that deter you from entering and giving it a try.
The interior is very modern and casual. There's wooden tables, booths along the wall, and some high-top tables and a high-top sushi bar. We were greeted as soon as we came in and informed about happy hour, which ended in half an hour. Sweet! Plenty of time to try it out and get our orders in on time, right? About that. Service is very friendly. Attentive? Not so much. To be fair, I think there were only two servers. And the manager was rushing around and helping out as best he could. We were given drinks and no one came back for our order until after half an hour. Fortunately, they still let us put in our happy hour orders, since they knew we had waited a while. We ordered the happy hour chirashi and a dinner bento box. I was pretty impressed with the food. The sushi quality was amazing. From my picture, the chirashi doesn't look like much, but it really is.
Overall, I'd definitely recommend trying Circle Sushi if you want pretty authentic Japanese food or good sushi. If you're one of those California roll sushi lovers and don't have much time though, maybe not. I'm glad we came when we didn't have too much going on. We didn't mind the wait too much, since it was just more quality time together. The servers were aware and they were apologetic, even without us saying anything, so that helps!
6/24/2018Our favorite Sushi/noodle place!!

And, the service is great!

Great sushi, beautiful restaurant, and great service. My friends and i came after hiking Roswell mill and we found this place after yelping for a good sushi place nearby. We arrived quarter to 3, and were able to partake in their happy hour which ends at 3. That was a win. I had the bento box with teriyaki chicken, a sushi roll, and tempura and rice for only $12. My friend had several rolls of sushi ordered for no more than $15. Everything was fresh and delicious and we will most definitely return when we're back in the area.
