Wagaya - Emory Village

Japanese restaurant · Clifton Community

"As one of our favorite spots in Emory Village (they also have a sister restaurant in West Midtown), it's no surprise that the narrow, tight-quartered dining room stays packed with Emory students and Druid Hills locals. Stay away during peak dining times to avoid a wait. Wagaya is our go-to when it’s a sushi in sweatpants kind of night. But don’t let the relaxed, college town atmosphere fool you, the fish and the experience get high grades (we’re talking cum laude). For sushi and a show get the Devil’s Breath, and watch as the seared tuna is blowtorched right at your table. Other rolls like the panko fried Crunchy 14th with cream cheese and three types of fish have less flair but solid flavor." - juli horsford, nina reeder
