Brush Sushi, O by Brush
Atlanta
Culture is a term that categorizes mankind, having the power to both bring us together, while also celebrating our unique stories.
As one of the first to bring Edomae sushi to Atlanta in 2016–Brush was founded on just that, the desire to share a piece of our story with the heart of Atlanta.
Whether it be brushing each piece of nigiri with nikiri shoyu, Edomae style omakase, binchotan kissed ingredients, or the aesthetics of kumiko wood–It’s all an extension of who we are.
Our goal is to lead, elevate, push the limits, and offer a version of Japanese cuisine that’s evolving, yet relatable. Allow us to humbly invite you to experience a piece of our home;
welcome to Brush Sushi.
