Atami Sushi Bar & Grill

As a long-time resident in the area, I've explored the local sushi scene extensively, and Atami is a standout among its peers. Unlike neighboring spots that often overprice their offerings or prioritize alcohol over quality, Atami strikes a perfect balance. Their sushi is both well-crafted and reasonably priced. What truly distinguishes Atami is the warm and attentive couple who run the restaurant. They possess an incredible knack for remembering your preferences, making each visit a personalized experience. This level of care and familiarity is something rare to find. Atami has rightfully earned its place as a local favorite. It's not just a place to eat; it's an establishment where you're made to feel at home. The cozy atmosphere, the dedicated owners, and the consistently fantastic sushi all contribute to its exceptional reputation. If you're in search of outstanding sushi with a personal touch and affordability, Atami is the place to be.

The place seems to be owned by an old adorable couple who do everything - from bringing you the menu to actually making sushi and cleaning up. It means that food comes out slowly, but boy it is worth it! Our meal was one of the freshest tasting sushi dinners we’ve had in the city (and we’ve been to a lot of Japanese places). I will come back!

Cozy spot, the sushi was delicious but the rolls were extremely small. One roll felt like the equivalent to half or 2/3 of a regular roll. We also got the Tuna that was listed on the menu at $23 but were charged $36 for it, the lady told us it was now hard to get. That tuna portion was also extremely small, not really worth the price. Overall, yummy sushi and wonderful atmosphere but quite expensive for what you get.
