To simply put it, Brush is a Japanese restaurant offering a combination of authentic quality ramen and detailed chef driven sushi omakase experiences. Our convictions are to respect the simplicity of the cuisine yet elevate it with hints of modern flavors and techniques.
High-end izakaya serving Japanese small plates & sushi in exposed-brick surrounds.

It was very good sushi. My complaint was with the pairing. Was told that would be 5 to 6 pairings but was only offered 4…
Those also seemed to not match with the pairs and almost seemed as an after thought. Reviews also discussed that sushi was a masterpiece to look at. During the omasake the presentation was as expected and nothing unusual. The sushi itself was very good though.

Brush is a sushi restaurant, and it is amazingly great. We normally get the Chef special and each bite is amazing. Prepared fresh and explained by the master sushi chef, it is well worth it. Great sake selection and upscale decor. Excellent service and food. Highly recommend for a treat.

We came here for a brunch. Very fresh nigiri and chirashi don. Presentation was top notch. Ramen broth was very tasty and noodles texture was just right. However, chicken meat was really salty. Kushikatsu was crunch but not overwhelming with the breading. Service was great but pretty slow. Price is little too high for the quality. Although I had better quality Japanese dishes before from other places this place has its own beauty. If you want to try out Izakaya style food this place is definitely one of the better places.

High-quality, fresh, meticulously prepared food – some of the best tasting fish I have ever tried. Great service and atmosphere. Bit pricey but after sampling some of the other sushi places in the Atlanta area, my wife and I always return to Brush.

Favorite spot for sushi in atlanta, everything was delicious. Had the tasting menu (izakaya) and it was so good. We went on a weeknight so it was very cheap. Only downside was it wasn’t too much food but it was still very much worth it. The sushi chefs explained each course and where they were sourced from (pretty much everything was flown in from japan). The tamago (egg) was amazing. We also had some sides like the rice bowl and some dumplings which were also great. Great selection of sake and the mixed drinks were great too. Highly recommended

Updating my ratings to five Star. My friends and I came here for the 20-course omakase meal. I have tried this culinary delight in many cities and multiple countries. Brush Sushi Izakaya did not disappoint.
We were impressed with the fresh wasabi made straight from the root in front of you. I especially like the cold seared sushi. The coal gave it a taste contrast that just burst in your mouth. One of my friends love the squid, which we received several parts of a squid from the same hose squid. Another friend liked the perch. Everyone enjoyed the light dessert at the end.
Jason, our chef tonight, was highly skilled and kind and modest. The waitress, Jenna, was awesome and she explained each of the dish to us.
If I could make two suggestions for improvement. The first would be the speed of the dishes coming out. At several moments, especially the beginning, we felt rushed. I would have preferred to have been able to smell the fish, slowly consume it and then talk about it as a group without the next dish already being pushed upon us. The other feedback would be to not pair the caviar and tobiko together. Those two fish eggs ideas fought for the attention of your taste buds without quite complimenting each other.
I’ve included pictures, but it may be separate from this post as this is my second review for this restaurant.

The negiri was excellent. I especially liked the scallop which was fresh, generous and tasty. The duck bao was good in that the duck meat was tender and delicious and generous also, but the bun was chewy rather than fluffy. The salmon citrus roll is poorly executed as the citron overpowered the taste of everything else. The service was friendly and responsive.

This place is on par with Umi for the best upscale sushi in Atlanta. You won’t find crunch rolls or other Americanized items here. Expect the highest quality fish and expect to pay for it. Amazing service as well.

Good drinks, starters, and side dishes. The ramen was decent, but not great. The broth, noodles, and meat were all good, but nothing special. I did think it was much better the second time than the first time I had it.
I really enjoyed the tuna tartare the first time I came here. The lotus root chips were a great contrast with the tartare. The second time I thought that the tuna poke was the appetizer winner. The texture and taste of the sauce were both great.
The presentation of the gyoza was better than the taste. They were a little soggy and not very flavorful.
The pork belly skewers were tasty. They had good flavor.
The service was good the first time, and excellent the second time. Our waitress was very personable and made some great suggestions.
I do not care for sushi, so I cannot fairly judge that. My friend thought it was excellent. I also really enjoyed my cocktails both times. The first time I had a spin-off of an old fashioned. The second time I ordered off the menu and had a French 75. It was well-made.
And yes, they do have a special soy sauce mixture in a bottle. I have seen some reviews that did not appreciate the spray bottle. Our waitress explained that they sauce was very time consuming to make, and that the spray bottle helps control the amount you use. Thus, you can use as much sauce as you like without losing the flavor of the food.

We were visiting Decatur for a conference I had to attend in June and stumbled upon Brush while planning on going to another restaurant. This was a very satisfying visit. My boyfriend and I LOVE ramen and this was the best that we have ever had aside from a friend of ours making it for us. We live in Ohio and been to the “best” in our city and they have nothing on the quality that we experienced a Brush. This will be a must anytime I’m in Atlanta.

Been twice and had at least ten different menu items. They were all excellent! The clam ramen pictured is worth writing home to Mom about. Every sushi roll we ordered was a taste and texture experience. Love this place.
