About the restaurant

O by Brush is led by one Michelin-starred and James Beard-nominated Chef Jason Liang and the talented Brush Sushi team. Born in the U.S. and raised in Taiwan, Chef Jason brings a unique perspective to our offerings. We present an ever-evolving omakase journey that is artful, expressive, intentional, and innovative, where Edomae tradition harmoniously meets Chef Jason’s Taiwanese-American heritage.

A highlight of our omakase is the use of dry-aged fish. Select varieties are carefully cleaned and aged in a specialized refrigerator for several days. This process enhances the flavor and improves the texture, elevating your sushi experience.

O by Brush strives to create an unforgettable evening where culinary artistry meets cultural harmony. It is the best of both worlds, merging traditional Edomae techniques with the vibrant nuances of Taiwanese American heritage.

It was a great omakase experience from start to finish. It was small enough to be personal and quiet.

About the restaurant

Mujō is a one MICHELIN star, intimate, omakase-only tasting menu experience serving modern edomae sushi led by Executive Chef J. Trent Harris. Our menu changes daily and reflects the best seasonal ingredients available, as well as fish flown in directly from Japan. The experience consists of a series of small plates and a progression of seasonal nigiri. We are inspired by the Japanese concept of ichi-go ichi-e, 一期一会, or “one time, one meeting. Our goal is not to recreate the sushiya of Japan, but to offer an experience that represents who and where we are, while respecting and honoring the traditions of edomae sushi. Inspired by the concept of omotenashi, but rooted in southern hospitality.

Mujo was incredible on every level. I booked this for my wife’s birthday and from the moment we entered the restaurant and Katy, the Maitre D, greeted us everything was magical. Jared seated us like we’ve never quite been seated before. The large sturdy bar seats were quite impressive, and Jared told us to sit completely back in the massive stools, and he took care of everything else by gently pushing us up to the bar counter! Every question we had about the menu he was able to answer. We wondered about adding the caviar service to our experience and he expressed that the caviar was his favorite thing on the menu. Of course we followed his recommendation and ordered the Amur caviar, and I have to say, we’ve had caviar all over the world, and this was the absolute best we have ever had, and it wasn’t just because of the caviar, but because of the absolutely delicious tickle and melt in your mouth, crème fraîche soufflé type accompaniment, and the thick perfectly toasted bread that made it spectacular. My wife enjoyed a martini and I ordered the wine pairing. Rachel, our sommelier, was so knowledgeable and took the time to not only show us each bottle, but give us an eloquent description of each pairing. She was so gracious and has an absolutely beautiful smile! Mickey, our sushi chef, was so entertaining to watch as he had great precision in slicing the fish perfectly! Speaking of the fish, there were several more exotic fish that we had not tried before, and it was all delicious. When he prepared the Nigiri he stressed to us that the rice would be warm and that we should consume it right away. That’s the first time we’ve ever had Nigiri with warm rice and now we’re spoiled. During our service Jared and other associates quietly cleaned any crumbs we had managed to drop on the bar and we hardly noticed they were so quiet and good at their jobs. Thanks Mujo for a most amazing birthday dinner. We’re telling everyone we know they must come and try you out! Will be back!

My wife and I were in town for the Georgia -Florida football game and sought out Turkish food. This restaurant came up on Trip Advisor and was highly rated. I agree with the ratings. The ambience and overall restaurant looks nicer than the pictures. It's comfortable and has a good vibe upstairs. The food was delicious and the service from our waiter Sez was excellent. The two of us split a babaghanoush appetizer, a spanakopita appetizer, a Greek salad, and a lamb kebab. We look forward to returning.

One of the best dinners we have had in a while!! Everything was spot on. The sake aioli, yellowtail jalapeño, and the new page roll were definitely some stand out items. Our server was great and helped us get another bottle of wine when the one we ordered was out of stock for the evening. He made our celebration definitely something to remember. The only thing we had an issue with was the lighting. In the middle of dinner they turned the lights even lower and it felt essentially dark in the restaurant where I had to use my flashlight for things. The lighting at the beginning was fantastic, dim but not dark. Overall, we will definitely be returning and would recommend this to everyone who wants to go spend some money on a great dinner.
