Sushi Yoko is on the right as you head north on Peachtree Industrial Boulevard, a tan to yellow building below the afternoon commuters. You need to exit at roughly the Tilly Mill Road exit to get to this eatery, as there are no exits immediately by this place. Inside, it has booth seating and a sushi bar, and is a little more cramped than you might expect, because this same building houses the Japanese store Tomato.

Sushi Yoko features largely authentic fare, no teppanyaki to speak of, and has inexpensive eats, as a J place goes. Comments that it’s a good lunch spot ring true. These days a lunch single runs about 7 dollars. The shioyaki here is a good bet, tasty and fresh. They also serve a generous bowl of tsukemono.

But it was Tomato that we were most suprised by. My wife is in love. It fills a niche that disappeared when Books Japan closed, though it’s more a grocery and general store than truly a book store. Pretty art fills the walls as you approach both shops, and both indeed are recommended.

I love their lunch combination. Don’t have to feel guilty when we eat out Japanese food when we go Sushi Yoko. Sadly to say, I have not been Tomato for many years since H-Mart is very close to us. I know I know…. I am a Japanese and should support Japanese local business but you can not beat the price and convenience. Tomato was THE place for Japanese groceries for me when kids were small and they went to Japanese daycare near by. I will make time to shop there and have a lunch at Sushi Yoko during the holiday to pay my respect to Japanese local business! Have a wonderful holiday and looking forward to see more of Food Near Snellville in 2012!

I’d agree that Tomato isn’t essential anymore for vegetables, rice, and the kinds of staples that the Korean stores are so good at supplying. But some things, like gifts for friends, only Tomato has the kinds of small items you take for granted while growing up. My take, anyway.
