AJC food writer Wyatt Williams visited MF Sushi Atlanta in Inman Park development Inman Quarter to see if Chris and Alex Kinjo, who owned the now-shuttered MF Buckhead, could recreate sushi magic in Atlanta.
The lauded MF Buckhead was hobbled by the recession, and the Kinjo brothers closed the restaurant's doors and left Atlanta. Former dining critic, John Kessler, kept in touch with the brothers and eventually chronicled their return to grace (and Atlanta) in a long story published earlier this year.
Williams describes omakase prepared by Chris Kinjo at the new location as "certainly one of the best sushi meals I’ve ever had," although he recommends customers prepare to drop a decent amount of money for the experience.
