Bottle Rocket
★ 4.5 · 435 reviews Atlanta Opened May 2026
Burgers, sushi and cocktails, one menu, South Downtown
Burgers and sushi rarely share a kitchen, let alone a menu, but Bottle Rocket makes the pairing work. It's built for either a fast lunch or a slower night with cocktails, right on Mitchell Street.
It's one of the first tenants in South Downtown's renovated storefronts, a district near the Georgia State Capitol that sat mostly empty for years. Spiller Park Coffee and Tyde Tate Kitchen are a few doors down.

Our server RON was super phenomenal! He was on point in every possible way. Anticipating what our table needed before we could ask.

Sushi/sports bar. Great concept. It was hopping for World Cup. Servers were attentive and went far to make sure we had what we needed. They just opened and we will be back.

I loved the location in Castleberry Hill and just blocks away the new location is even more amazing! Sushi is back, the space has evolved, and the neighborhood is finally catching up. Bottle Rocket is awesome.

I went here during my week stay for MomoCon2026. Was recommended by a friend from our group of 4 to try this place out as we were in the mood for something with sushi as far as I remember for their birthday(?). Upon entering, we were met by a very charismatic environment as the music was blaring and there was a fair few amount of people enjoying their time at the bar and tables. We quickly sat at a table and was greeted by the owner. I don't remember her name since this review has been long overdue since our original visit was on 5/24/26, but she was very welcoming to us and explained that the store was going through a soft relaunch. Basically, the location had moved stores and was experimenting with a new menu, that sadly didn't have sushi but you can look at my photos and compare the old ones to see that they were *indeed* serving sushi at one point. Me and a friend both ordered our own respective Poke Bowls which had a separate fill-in slip (sadly don't have a picture of it) that you can order ingredients on while our other remaining two ordered burgers. Now, the server did hand our bowls but got them mixed up and by the time I had finished mine, was when we realized that I had mistaken my friend's bowl for mine. I will admit, it was partially our fault for not realizing this when we looked at our bowls but the owner was very understanding once we explained the situation to them and happily remade it without charging us twice. We enjoyed our meals while drinking their Alcoholic Canned Drinks. (Personally, got tipsy as I drank a lot laughing with my group throughout the process) Overall, this place had a lot of family energy to it from my perspective as everyone knew each other and were enjoying their time. I highly recommend for people to try this place out if looking for a good meal and a great idea to spend the night. Finally, I want to send a personal thank you to the owner for making my friend's birthday a blast! It was a pleasure to spend time at your establishment while attending MomoCon!!!
