Sandy Springs' Newest Sushi Spot: District M

3 May 2019

District M prides itself on sushi, but there is more to the restaurant’s menu than one would expect. The rolls and dishes Chef Jackie Chang creates are far from standard- all of the ingredients are top quality and the flavor combinations are out-of-bounds. District M opened in Sandy Springs just a few short weeks ago, but the restaurant is already making its mark on the city’s culinary scene. The restaurant is located on Roswell Road, right next door to another Sandy Springs newbie and culinary force, Casi Cielo.

District M is elegant and the decor allows for high ceilings, expansive bars and an outdoor patio. The bar program is also blossoming at this new spot- with rotating specialty cocktails and all drinking accouterments created in-house (i.e. simple syrups & purees). District M will be “rolling out” at Food That Rocks in just a few short weeks (Saturday, June 8; tickets available at FoodThatRocks.org)! Chef Jackie will be serving a fan favorite- Crispy Rice with Spicy Tuna- for attendees to get a “taste” of District M. Before tasting these signature bites, we took a look at some of the beautifully composed plates and drinks at District M– scroll below to find your perfect order!
