Ru San's

Serviceable sushi at a good price, noisy but generally nice atmosphere.

So I was in this restaurant a whole hour waiting on a to go order. And the person handing out the orders was so rude. No thank you.

Upbeat dance music. Blue LED lights on a night stoned bar. Delicious yaki soba. Great vegetarian menu. Great prices. Extensive sushi menu. Table had huge splits in it from hot things being placed on it.

japanese food here - very good. Had a sister come into town and asked me to take her here again. Prices are reasonable I would say. They have so many great reviews for a reason.

There are good sushi places in Atlanta. There's really no reason to go here. The sushi is just not very good. The udon used the good but you can tell now that the quality is not there

Love this place. Tasty rolls, reasonably priced, and its just a relaxing venue. They dont throw buzzwords at you, they just describe the dish and what kind of person likes what. Very simple, very effective.

Nice food and staff. Great value for money and food quality.

This a great location tucked behind HobNob & relatively unknown but has a nice environment without crowds. The sushi & food is good and fast. Good for date night or chillin with your homies.

Decent, used to be my favorite but their menu had gotten much more limited and more expensive.

This place is amazing! We had dinner here and ordered online. The food is great, service is great and the size of portions is incredible. Best value for maki.

1st time visit place was great and price is awesome

Fell in love with Sushi here. Bring all out of state visitors especially nice after a movie.

The food is delicious! but the location is not the best.

Best Sushi for the money in Atlanta. Closest experience to a real sushi bar I have had in the states outside of L.A..

Love Ru San's! Their miso soup is one of my favorites and the fish always tastes fresh.

I never have issues with the Midtown location. Service was good & so was the food!

My girls and I come here very often. I also come during my lunches with coworkers a lot too. Note that this place is truly a casual dining place. With that in mind, the food is always good. The buffet, superb. The price is fair. Sometimes though, service can lack. I often have to go a whole meal without water or being asked if I need something and would have to wait awhile to get my check. Other than that, I feel like it s fair for the price and good food.

Affordable prices. Varied selection. Cheeky sushi chefs. Great date atmosphere. You will leave here stuffed!

Great environment. Tried their lunch buffet today for the first time (although I've been here already a few times). Buffet was fresh, lots of options, and clean. I will definitely be back! Great customer service and staff.

Food and prices are still great but I was very disappointed to learn they are no longer doing the lunch buffet.

Most disgusting, cheap sushi restaurant with slow, poor service. Asian restaurants are known for their crafty artful sophistication and this place lacks all of that.

Excellent sushi selection! Menu reads like a Greek diner.

I loved the variety of Sushi and other Japanese staples.

Such great food and reasonable prices. Today I had the mixed vegetable tempura maki and yasai soba. Both were so good I ate way too much. Can't wait to eat my leftovers and go back for more!

We ordered over $70 worth of sushi (5 different rolls) this evening. We got through a couple of bites before realizing it was the worst sushi we ve ever eaten. The texture, smell and taste were all off putting. We eat sushi at least once a month and it s one of our favorite cuisines. When we called the restaurant to complain they tried to put the blame on DoorDash for why the sushi wasn t fresh. The DoorDash delivery person was on time and had nothing to do with how terrible their sushi was. I am really disappointed that a meal we were really looking forward to was a total wash and waste of money and now we re just waiting and hoping we don t get food poising.

Really good food, good prices. The tuna symphony is delicious. I live in midtown and go there quite often! You can even charge your electric car on the parking!

I gave it 4 stars because I'm sure my food was good. I just don't remember anything good, bad or otherwise about my visit.

Nice location for japanese food. i'll return family next time. prices are decent. this place has many great reviews for a reason.

Certainly not what it used to be. Prices are higher, crowds are smaller.

My experience here was good the food was ready for pick up when I arrived and they were a lot of people inside.

One of my top places for delicious japanese food. Good place to relax and unwind. The bill was good for how much you get.

I come pretty often and everytime I've been seated by Sandy it's been a great experience I love the food and she is always very warming I'd definitely recommend this place to my friends and to ask for her..!

I like Ru Sans chain a lot and this is the best local restaurant of theirs ive so far visited. Everything is just superb here in my opinion. And especially menu and the prices. My fav is so called Japanese dinner based on grilled tuna (only $17 for big tuna stake entree + soup + salad = wonderful option!) Also this particular location has very tasty all-cooked Catherine roll (other Ru Sans Ive visited didnt have it)

Good food at a good price from friendly folks! It's so good i had to eat some before i took the picture! They are doing a great job in spite of the trump pandemic! We eat here a lot !

Pretty good take out with a saki bomb while waiting. Always a good choice.

Only have a few dollars in your pocket, but still craving decent sushi? Check out Ru San's. Some of the choices aren't exactly going to fill you up but for a few dollars it's hard to beat. The atmosphere is lively the sushi is cheap and the waitresses will even sing a Saki Bomb song with you.

The food is fresh, the atmosphere is fun and the staff friendly.

My family and I went here on a Saturday around 11:40 and didnt realize they opened at noon. They saw us and kindly let us in so we didn't have to wait in the heat. The service was excellent and they provided my kids with the beginner chopsticks when they saw them having difficulty, without us asking for them The food was fresh and delicious with a great selection. I live in lawrenceville but will be coming back again, it was worth the drive.

There is not a single Japanese working at this place when we visited. I occasionally make maki myself at home, and am always curious to watch the pros do it. The sushi chef put no effort into making a tight roll, which totally showed when it came to eating time. Service was indifferent. I have to say, though, that the fish was fresh and delicious, and portions generous. Overall not bad, bit would hope Atlanta has better options.

Sierra is so amazing! She has amazing customer service!!! And the food is soooooo good! Definitely recommend to everyone!

Really good food and service. Enjoyed the sushi and ramen.

This used to be my favorite spot to get good inexpensive sushi for lunch. I have two favorite servers there who are sweet and cute as can be. However, the fact that they have had a C grade from the board of health has kept me away for a while. I went back this week to see if they cleaned up their act....nope, still a C. They seem to think it is okay to have a C grade serving sushi. Out of curiosity I checked the State Board of Health grade for them, not only have they had a C for the last 6 months but they also received a "U" for unsatisfactory with a number score of 52, one year ago!I have to pass on here going forward until they either get new management or get glowing grades on future health department inspections.

I love this place! Best sushi buffet I have ever had. Try the Fire Cracker, you won't be disappointed!

I walked to Rusan's to grab dinner on a short break from a nearby hotel that I work at and I was treated so poorly. I was placing a to go order and the girl at the stand pretty much Shooed me away to another area. It was busy but when I came in no one was behind me. When the other girl came to take my order I explained to her that I didn't know the name of the rolls, I also explained that they were fried, I pointed to one on the menu and the second one I wasn't sure of but I did know what was in it and was about to point it out on the menu. While I was still talking she said I' ll come back when you are ready and walked away while I was in mid sentence. I went back to the first girl and she thought I was turning in the menu. I said oh I haven't ordered yet, she walked away from me while I was ordering. She completely ignored me and started assisting a party waiting to be seated. I couldn't believe that had just happened. I left. At our hotel we refer a lot of guest. I will NOT do that anymore

Came in, got seated and waited for 10 minutes. We got two cups of water. Waited for another 5 minutes, then we were seen for drinks ... or rather, my wife was. The waitress took her drink order then walked off. My wife called her back, and I was somewhat annoyed by the lack of attention, so I just said "That's OK." We sat for another 10 minutes before my wife started calling for our waitress to come take our order. Why we need to hunt our waitress down to explain rolls or take our order was beyond us. This level of service was before anyone was even seated around us. Ten minutes later, we are seen for food. Asked for several different sushi rolls, to get a taste of the place, and a Kirin - told her to make it a large one (22 oz). I order a beer just because I thought maybe the original oversights were because she was busy. 20 minutes later the food was brought out to us. The rolls I ordered are rated below: Dynamite Maki - So-so, had to drape it with the mayo on the plate to give it some flavor. Huge is not word for how big this roll is. Sesame Encrusted Tuna roll - I don't even know where to start with this one. Meat not seasoned enough to overcome the sesame fried taste, extremely hard on the outside, mushy on the inside. Do not order this one. Mariner's Ichi - Large green roll with some weird combination of flavors that seem to cancel each other out and leaves a ... slippery-gritty aftertaste for a second (no other way to describe that sensation) Twice Smoked Salmon Maki - Very salty meat on top of uninspired rolls. Even though the meat was edible and not over-cooked, it almost imparts a jerky flavor Protein Group - Some good Nigiri and rolls on this along with a good Temaki but the huge mayo-covered, tuna nacho and the super deep-fried, salty rolls (whatever they were because I couldn't tell) could have been best left off. The Kirin I asked for? Forgotten. When asked about taking it off, then it was brought to me after my meal was almost over. The waitress then tells me that she took it off ... that means you remembered to put it on my tab, but decided to give it to the table behind.us that also requested beer. So obviously my order was not important enough to be concerned until I start getting upset. After I said take it off, then the waitress tells me the beer is free - in order to make up for 'lost' time. "Drink the free beer!" I didn't come in for free beer. I came in to have a good meal and pay whatever I ate/drank. Had we gotten decent service in the first place, I would not need free beer to make up for it. Disappointed with the service and not impressed with the sushi. All said, I have had a better time at Kiku, Yuki or even Strip - even though Strip is over-priced. I would think that a place that was closed a year prior for having been overrun by roaches would be going out of their way to bend over backwards for business - or at least do the original job.

Awesome staff, great sushi selection, amazing atmosphere!

Lunch buffet quality has gone worse... Yuck. Will not return. They need to understand, you have to feed people better food and more food and choices for people to come back. There are many other choices out there you have to compete with...just pure dumb to ruin your own reputation.

Honestly besides how nice it is inside. My sushi was not that tasty and the ratio of rice to fish was off. However my couple pieces of sashimi/nigiri were better than the sushi. Chicken teriyaki was inedible.

Fun nights of sushi and saki bombs are to be had here. Great casual date night sushi and a local favorite.

Always clean, great service, Oscar(the chef) always remember my order.

Wide variety of sushi and entrees. Always a great meal at a value. Been eating here for many, many years. Never disappointed!

Tuna, King Crab, and Salmon Cucumber Rolls. We had the Garlic Sesame Friend Tofu as an appetizer. Delicious! Friendliest staff! We will be back

Took my girlfriend here last sunday 3/1/15 for her birthday. The manager recommended me the fried tilapia and fried oysters. Both were very delicious. He provided the best customer service I had ever experience.

Low prices and the chicken fried rice is the best I've ever had.

Service was glacial, server made flimsy excuses, the fish was low quality

Amazing vibes and great food for an affordable price. I always get the Plum Sake ! Love this place.

Did not eat there just got take out but place look clean and get service

The food is soooooooo good!!! Today is my first time dining and I had the shrimp fried rice. Seriously the best I've ever had! Its seasoned so well with cucumbers, onion, the works! Everywhere else I go is going to pale in comparison. ....

Used to love this Ru San's. They used to have great deals on ok sushi. They've sinced raised their prices quite a bit but did not increase quality of sushi.
