Southern and Japanese fusion, known for sushi and cocktails
"Known for great sushi and their Asian-soul food fusions like collard green ramen, One Flew South has locations on the Beltline and in Hartsfield-Jackson airport." - jacinta howard, juli horsford
"We’d rather drag a broken roller bag down Peachtree than fight families for a gate seat, which is why we just hit One Flew South if there's extra time before departure. Plus, drinking sake while pretending to forest bathe in floor-to-ceiling imagery of lush green trees beats any fancy lounge pass. Since 2009, the Asian and Southern fusion restaurant has had people reconfiguring their flight schedules for a taste of their internationally-famous dishes (they’re now on the Beltline, too). The sushi offerings are first-class, especially since they get multiple weekly fresh fish shipments. The venue also offers creative dishes like soy and ginger-marinated tuna jerky and the best burger in the entire airport." - demarco williams, nina reeder, juli horsford, jacinta howard
"An upscale Southern restaurant and sushi bar that has been consistently ranked among the best airport restaurants worldwide since opening in 2008; it is known for excellent food, attentive service, and well-crafted cocktails, and it remains accessible to most flyers without requiring an international ticket. The team behind the restaurant also operates a standalone location along the Eastside Beltline, bringing airport-quality dining to the city beyond the concourse." - Eater Staff
"One Flew South offers a reprieve from the airport congestion with a private dining space and sushi bar. Guests can order from the fusion menu of Southern meets Asian cuisine, including the famous BLT with pickled fried green tomatoes along with a fresh selection of sushi and a comprehensive wine and cocktail menu." - Tori Allen
"Washington and Nutter, both of whom are veterans of the airport restaurant scene, started their partnership in 2008 with One Flew South, which was nominated twice for Outstanding Service at the James Beard Awards. One Flew South — popular for its “elegant inspired Southern food” such as the BLT & E, a breakfast dish featuring Benton's Bacon, pickled green tomatoes and curry mayonnaise — became so well-known that airport executives worldwide flew to Atlanta simply to watch them in action." - Micheline Maynard
