    Newly renovated inside. Very beautiful lighting & ambiance now! Great for a first date! My usual sushi plate was also prettier than before so it seems they are working on better plate presentation.

    Fun place especially if you're drinking Sake. Staff is phenomenal. We got free sake for talking to one of the chefs that came and sat next to us. Good music too. Feel free to sing out loud!

    Atlantans flock to Rusan's for the cheep and plentiful sushi. It's easy to get your money's worth at the $10 lunch buffet, and sake bombs are the drink of choice. Read more

    Hu is an amazing server but she only works lunch now. Good cheap sushi with no pretension. Pacific rim dinners are often overlooked but are very good too.

    Sit and the bar, and get to know the sushi-chefs - you'll have a lot more fun. If you want a variety at a great price, try the Super Power Builder.

    Good cheap sushi and affordable sake. Great people watching. Blaring disco/dance music (but I like that kind of music).

    The lunch buffet is $14.95 now. The price change has really driven away business. This place used to always be packed at lunch.

    Make friends with head chefs. Sit at bar. Order from written menu. Have a shot of sake with chef, nodding deeply. Eat like it is your final meal on earth.

    The fried tempura ice cream is the bomb. They have a frequent eater card by the door to get free meals.

    Try to get here early around 5 or 6. After that it has a crowd on any day of the week and the service is not good when they are busy.
