Finally! Details on Brush Sushi Izakaya Opening on Church Street in Decatur
Decatur Metro | October 28, 2015 | 10:41 amHave you been waiting patiently for more details on the new izakaya opening on Church Street in Decatur since the news was first reported in March? Atlanta Magazine is here to help!
A new post on the Atlanta mag website states that Brush Sushi Izakaya will feature Gulf-sourced seafood “whenever possible” and a full bar. Here’s a bit more info on the food offerings…
Business partner John Chen, who owns bars in Buckhead and Athens, says Brush will be a true Japanese izakaya, or pub, serving sushi, fried and grilled skewers, and other items cooked on a robata grill using bincho-tan (white charcoals) from Japan. There will be three tiers of omakase offerings ranging from $65 to $125.
Menu items will include robata grilled whole squid with wasabi salt and chili miso sauce; chicken wing and thigh yakitori; braised pork belly bun with peanuts, mustard greens, and coriander; and fried octopus balls, in addition to sushi. There will be a limited amount of tori ramen (chicken ramen) nightly.
The post notes that Brush Sushi is scheduled to open in January 2016.

I am ridiculously excited about this!
heh heh… fried octopus balls…
$65 for ramen?! That’s insane!
I thought “omakase” was like a prix fixe kinda deal. It’s a whole meal, right?
Correct – many, many one-bite dishes spread out over an extended period of time – 2, 3, 4 hour meals.
