The Nikko is probably the most authentic Japanese place in Atlanta, Suntory next.  They are both incredibly expensive.  They cater to Japanese business men on expense acounts.  There is a good yakitori place in Buckhead where Peachtree and Roswell Road split called Yakitori Den Chan.  Don't if they are still open, but they serve only yakitori.
