    My business partner and I ate here on a whim after noticing it on our way to Charbucks (er, Starbucks) in the morning. We went there for a late lunch and enjoyed prompt service. The fish was fresh and the single rolls were fantastic. We were amazed at the quality for the price. We will definitely come back the next time we are in the area for business. For the price and location this is a great little place!

    Not a bad place for some quick sushi and its actually not that bad! I still prefer my regular sushi place (Kuroshio) but this would do in a pinch or if I were unable to get to Kuroshio for some reason. The food is fresh and the rolls, while being a little on the small side, were tasty and filling. The prices are pretty good as well and wont eat a hole in your wallet. Definitely worth a shot!

    The sushi is pretty darn good. I will agree with other reviews about the price being a little high. The service has been good as well, though I would recommend the staff (especially the chefs) familiarize themselves with food allergies. I have counted on the wait staff for recommendations - usually with great results.

    Excellent tempura and sushi. Also had sushimi and it was all fresh and tasty. The place is clean. The service is outstanding and for lunch, I've not found a better value. I recommend it highly. Great value for the money.

    My wife and I just made our second visit to Yellow Tail last night. I'll say that both experiences ended up being a bit different from one another. I'll start with the overall positives about Yellow Tails. Firstly, service has been good, the staff is friendly, and the food always comes out very quickly. They have a good variety of rolls to choose from, and the rolls aren't as expensive as I've seen at many other sushi restaurants. Now, if I had reviewed this place immediately after my first visit, it would easily have scored a 4 (in line with all of the other Yelpers). The fish was incredibly fresh, and everything tasted as good as I've had anywhere else. We had several rolls, and enjoyed all of them. What really stood out to use was the size of their (non-roll) sushi. They placed a rather thick slice of fish over a smaller bit of rice. What was really nice was that the fish actually extends well over the size of the rice. The sushi is expensive, but we thought (at the time) that given the size and freshness, it was more than worth the price. However, my tune has changed a bit after our second visit. Last night, we ordered some tempura to start the meal, a rainbow roll, and a bunch of sushi (salmon, yellow tail, mackerel, inari). The size of the sushi still impressed, but the freshness didn't. While eating the rainbow roll (which came out first), my wife first noticed that the yellow tail tasted a bit fishy (I noticed as well). The whitefish also had a fishy taste to it. In terms of the sushi, both the salmon and the yellow tail had slight fishy tastes (I don't eat the mackerel because it's always fishy). It wasn't inedible, but it did make me question the freshness of the fish. I've had plenty of sushi and when it's good, the fishiness is not there. Maybe it was an off night for them, but last night's experience definitely knocked their rating down a star.

    We have eaten here twice and were pleased both times. Today we had the mixed tempura as an app and the French Kiss Roll and Smoked Salmon Roll for our meal. I don't have a photo because we inhales it before I thought to take one. Everything tastes light, flavorful, and fresh. Soy sauce not even needed. Great service too. Very clean inside, ladies room too. Only two other diners were here for dinner so it was quiet, but that might not bode well for their bottom line.

    Though the service was on point, the sushi was terrible. It wasn't fresh and smelled super fishy. The items I got were also over priced for the area. Take 10 min more and go to Izumi on Town Lake.

    Great prices! I go here all the time and I'm always satisfied with their great food. Also some of the best fried rice I've ever had. I would totally suggest stopping by and trying it.

    Came here on a Sunday night around 7 with a party of 8 people. They must not have been prepared whatsoever (which is strange for a restaurant, because they should be able to perform well even at maximum capacity). The service was slow and confused even though we were one of only three tables. Orders came out completely out of order. Not nearly enough food for the price. For the French Kiss Roll, I got five pieces for $12. One piece of chicken yakitori is $2 and took longer than the soup, salad, and sushi combined. Gave two stars because the quality is slightly more above par, but not by much. Definitely will be returning to Ru Sans or Sushi Bites as my regular place. Tried branching out a bit, but just doesnt work for this place. Sorry.

    I experienced one of the worst service i have had in a long time. I guess when a sign at the door says hiring experienced servers, I should have known. I came here with some coworkers for lunch. I was excited about trying this place and overall the food was good. I really don't have much to say about the food, i ordered the sushi lunch which came with 6 pieces of nigiri and a California roll. The sushi was good but not the best I've had. There are a lot of options for lunch specials under $10 which is nice. Now for the services, from the beginning we saw that they were busy and in the middle of the lunch rush and there was really just one waiter working and one training. The waiter came to our table multiple times trying to give us other tables' orders even before we ordered. He tried to give us salads before we ordered and left one on the table and asked it anyone wanted the salad and gave it to me when I placed my order because i picked the salad instead of the soup. So he left the salad and went off without leaving me any utensils to actually eat my salad. Next he brought out the salads and soups for everyone else at the table but again failed to provide the utensils ahead of time. After that ordeal, he came back multiple times asking what we ordered in a not so polite tone. Someone in our group came a little late and gave her order to the server that is in training supposedly but that wasn't correct because she was just in training and can't take the order. After all that we waited a long time for the food and i think because of the bad service, the food no longer tasted that great to me. Definitely not coming back here.

    Yellow Tail is a cute little sushi & bar restaurant on Chastain. They have amazing food and their sushi is oh so good!! I never seem to get enough!

    Stopped by waiting on my daughter attending the Kennesaw State Basketball game. Ordered Salmon Sashimi which was excellently prepared and super fresh with the utmost in texture. So good that before picking her up I returned for a second helping before heading to SW Fulton which is greatly under served for quality sushi. I hope a sushi restaurant of this caliber will come to 30331..

    One of my coworkers really likes this place, so we come up here when she wants sushi. She usually suggests Yellow Tail. They have a variety of weekday lunch specials, all under $10 each, which we like to take advantage of. There are sushi specials (including sashimi and chirashi don), bento box specials, and combination hibachi specials. I usually go for the sushi specials, but on our last visit, decided to try one of their bento boxes ($7.95). You get the choice of two items (most are cooked) and I chose the katsu chicken and fish tempura. Both the chicken and fish were deep-fried, but the batter and texture of the skins were different. The chicken was crispy and more tasty while the fish was light and mild. The fish reminded me of a filet you can buy at the grocery store and bake yourself. Not bad, though. The bento box also comes with your choice of miso soup or house salad (with ranch or ginger dressing) and a small serving of white rice with sesame seeds sprinkled on top. The service was good and the servers were friendly. The food took a little while to come out, but understandable given what we ordered. Overall, the lunch specials here are a reasonable deal, especially if you aren't looking for anything heavy.

    Sushi was fresh and beautifully arranged. My server, Kyoko, was quite pleasant and helpful in helping me understand the menu and drink selections. I look forward to trying ramen next next!

    Price is kind of higher. The meat of spicy tuna looks pink instead of red, and it tastes different than the other restaurants I've ever had. So, I'm kinda doubting about the meat.

  • Sheena P.

    Came here for dinner. There wasn't much of a selection of sushi. The basic rolls, like spicy tuna rolls, are $10. And while the sushi was good, not anything to write home about.

  • Catherine A.

    My boyfriend thinks its too pricey for what you get but I think I'm just happy Kennesaw has a more upscale sushi joint. (No disrespect to the local Ru Sans, Kiro, etc...but its nice to have a 15-20 unique rolls and not a page of 150+ rolls). Baked Crab roll was worth the 15* min suggested wait. I'll be back!

    Yellow Tail Sushi & Bar... hmmm what is different or good about this place? For starters is the long wait time. It took 45 minutes to get a few basic rolls. I thought they want to the savannah river with hans from deadliest catch to get my food. Price points are wayyy too high. I am all for paying higher prices for knowing my raw fish is handled safely and contains no possible food virus, but I didnt find that here. Similar to sushi bites,Kuroshio, Hamada, and the thousand other sushi places on every other main road therefor, at the I say again Whats the difference from all these? Nothin sub par sushi at high end prices.

    It has been few years since I last saw Mr. Yamazaki (he left Umezono as the sushi chef, he told me that his background is "Youshoku" which is the western influenced style of Japanese food, so he went working for a Italian restaurant that specialize in home made pasta), the sushi chef at Sushi Yoko had told me that he is currently at Yellow Tail in Kennesaw. After a long day in Chattanooga for sight seeing, we decided to stop at Yellow tail to visit Mr. Yamazaki. He greeted me with a smile, he told me that we haven't seen each other in 4 years (I've know him for 15 years). I asked for "Omakase sushi" which is a chef 's choice, 18 piece nigiri-zushi and 2 rolls, quite nice for the two of us... Mr. Yamazaki the magician of sushi or more like a machine gun, while he casually talks to us in Japanese, matter of minutes he makes 18 piece nigiri, and 4 rolls to go for the take-out customer, but every piece is beautiful, no short cuts, it's like an art. event he rolls are picture perfect... a customer comes in and orders 2 orders of omakase with uni, he panics a little but within few minutes the order is out... and it looks beautiful on the plate. His Miso-soup, I missed his miso soup, broth made from shell-fish, nothing compares to his miso-soup (well... my mother and grandmother makes a mean miso-soup) We ordered "Kirin Beer" and ordered 2 more rolls and 4 piece nigiri, I believe "Shimesaba" seared mackerel shows the true talent of sushi chef (many non-Japanese owned restaurants tends to cheat and purchase pre-made shimesaba, store bought shimesaba usually sits in the vinegar too long, so the meat becomes tough, but if it's home made like Mr. Yamazaki's shimesaba is soft and melts in my mouth. He started talking to me about how he makes his curry, being he is a youshoku chef, I had to try his beef curry, but I ordered it to go. And also told me to try the katsu-don next time I come over. I had my magical reunion with Mr. Yamazaki and most delicious food, I thanked for his wonderful meals and left the restaurant. PS: Next day I had the curry for lunch at home, microwaved it, it was a very nice Japanese style thick curry with a little acid flavor from using fruits, It's not spicy like Indian, Japanese curries are tasty, mild and thick, great with hot steamed rice. I'm looking forward to the next visit to see him at Yellow Tail.

    This is our favorite local sushi restaurant! Everything we've tried has been great! The Hawaiian Sunset roll is a favorite and the Tonkatsu ramen is delicious! Lunch is definitely reasonably priced and the staff here are so friendly! We love coming back again and again! We frequent sushi restaurants and have been to several locally and this one is the best!

  • Brooke A.

    Came here for lunch. Rolls on the maki combo were limited, but the sushi lunch with nigiri was really good! If you are a cali roll type of gal, lunch is probably a good option. If you are a spicy salmon roll type of gal, but don't dig nigiri, its probably not for you (for a decent price lunch).

    This restaurant is beautifully decorated. They have great service. I came here during lunch and got a great deal. For 9 dollars, I was able to get the sushi lunch which included miso soup or salad with 8 pieces of california roll, and chef's choice of 6 pieces of nigiri. I also wanted shrimp tempura. It was a dollar a piece. I wish I didn't because they were very bland even dipped in the sauce. I am happy to say that one piece of salmon nigiri is only $2. I will definitely come back

    this place is amazing. it's the real deal. they have a huge selection of delicious sushi (I don't say this lightly, I am sushi snob) and REAL honest to goodness ramen soup, with fish cakes! there is also a large selection of other authentic japanese dishes. I wish I could eat here a lot more than I do. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and The staff are amazing, helpful and cheerful. I'll continue to give them my business as much as possible!

    As a semi regular (once a week for lunch and dinner on occasion), I love Yellow Tail. I believe the quality of the sushi is the best this side of Atlanta. The fish is always fresh and the servers are always friendly. Sometimes service can be a little slow, but I justify this by realizing there is usually always only two server and they are busting their tail to serve the whole restaurant. If your wondering why they would only have two servers.....it is because they are not ALWAYS super busy, and servers only make $2.13 an hour (I was in the business for ten years so I can relate). Thanks Yellow Tail for having awesome sushi and GREAT deals for lunch. You can't beat the Bento Box deal for lunch. I always leave feeling satisfied.

    Hmm really don't get the hype here, I got take out one day when I was having a huge sushi craving. I ordered the sushi combo, only to discover I got nigiri instead. It was ok but almost $12 for 4 ( maybe 5) peices of nigiri and the sadest looking salad ever ( see pic)..there are better values elsewere.

  • Ellen M.

    Tried on Sunday. Not many rolls on lunch menu, then server said it was not lunch & gave us dinner menu. A few more, but only the std rolls. Not too creative. The service was fair. Our first server must have been new, b/c the other one took over. Not busy @ 3, but still slow. The hibachi dinner was good that our son had. Our sushi was OK. Seems like the sushi is not their main interest. The rainbow roll was good, but the spicy tuna wasn't. Maybe the other dishes are better.....could be a good place if service and food improved.

    Being frequent diners at their restaurant, Sake in Roswell, we were excited when the owners told us that they had begun an additional venture in Kennesaw. Yellow Tail is an upscale addition to the northwest suburbs of Atlanta. It offers and extensive sushi and Japanese menu, in addition to a full bar. Both food and beverages excel in quantity as well as quality and are very reasonably priced. They have lunch and dinner hours, and are closed on Sundays. Even though we live farther away, we will be frequent patrons of Yellow Tail.

    My friend and I always meet some time around Christmas to exchange gifts, and this year we decided to have sushi. Since we both love trying different restaurants, we chose Yellow Tail since neither of us had been there. We went on one of the "snow storm" scare nights, so the place was practically deserted. I ordered green tea and loved the beautiful pot and cup the tea was served in. I'm accustomed to a plain stainless steel pot or just a single ceramic cup. The tea pot we received was very Teavana-esque. I think it made the tea taste better. Seriously. For dinner, I ordered based on the recommendation of our server. Of course, now I can't remember the name of my rolls, but I think my favorite one had "volcano" in the title. It came with a smoky flavored, orange mixture of seafood piled on top. It was delicious. I would love to go back and try some more options. Also a plus: the bathroom was really clean and close to the table. (I drank two pots of tea by myself.)

    A bit overpriced for the quality of the food. As nice as this place is, the food should be better. The service is slow during lunch hours and a chef is always yelling in a different language at his "preferred" customers.

    We have dined here twice and enjoyed the food. The thing I love about this restaurant is that they offer Japanese Hibachi food without the show and price. At lunch you can get your choice of meat/shrimp/scallop etc for around 10.00 and that includes rice, veggies, and a salad or soup. It all tastes very fresh. We did not have superb service on either visit, the first time our waitress was too busy talking on her cell phone while rolling silverware and this time the poor girl was new and messed up our order but told us "not to worry because the price was the same".(????) Anyway, good food, pleasant atmosphere, clean...I like it here.

    OMG, Kennesaw has a new sushi place and this one is actually GOOD! I've waited for what seems like forever for such a miracle. The interior is nice and modern, the staff very friendly. Unfortunately the table seating is one side communal bench, which I'm not a fan of. However, this place has never been too packed so it's not a huge deal. The menu hosts quite a variety of Japanese dishes and sushi choices. The sushi is definitely solid and the price is pretty decent. Nothing crazy special, but compared to ANY other sushi joint in the area this place really shines.

  • Coby R.

    Have now been here for both lunch and dinner, and both times felt Yellow Tail was overpriced considering the average-at-best quality of the sushi. Service is decent, though not especially professional or warm as it should be in a nice Japanese place. I do not plan to return.

    Used to be good: Yellow Tail was one of my favorite go to places for lunch. They have several good rolls including the Honey Roll and the J&J Roll. The Nigiri and Chirashi are great too. Me and three coworkers went their weekly for lunch for nearly three years. Six months ago they reduced the menu to a lunch menu and raised prices. I was still able to order off of the dinner menu but I was irked at the price increase. Now as of today they have a new lunch menu and much higher prices. Even worse: the portions are smaller! The Chef refused to make anything from the dinner menu. My benchmark for sushi restaurants often is Salmon Nigiri. For no increase in value this has gone from $1.50 per piece to $2.50 per piece. Compare value with Kuroshios at $1.00 per piece. My average lunch bill at Yellow Tail was over $30, compared to $16-$18 at Kuroshio's. After eating today, I had to leave and go next door to get more food and I spent $21 after tip. One of my coworkers did the same. This place was a good Sushi place that is now a good Japanese noodle place and simply no longer a good value. Sadly and reluctantly, I won't be going back.

    We have visited once and really enjoyed the sushi. The atmosphere reminds me of an upscale sports bar, with large flat-screen televisions. We tried the Oreo sushi, as the name sounded interesting. We are looking forward to going back soon.
