We love discovering really unique dining experiences. Besides just finding awesome restaurants that have incredible menus, serving up some serious eats, we also love discovering spots with one-of-a-kind ambiance and decor—and history—such as the Orient Express of Vinings, for example. This popular restaurant is actually a…..wait for it…..train car. That’s right. You can have some of the best sushi in Georgia in an old, vintage train car. It truly is a dining experience that will be most memorable for all members of your family. Here are a few reasons why:

Within this awesome restaurant in the town of Vinings, Georgia you can order up delectable Chinese fare, Hibachi, or some unique specialty sushi rolls. But the kicker goes beyond just the plethora of options. It’s actually where you’re sitting that really matters. Choose your setting out of the three rooms of a renovated railroad car.

Orient Express (heh heh pretty clever, right?) sits directly alongside real, active train tracks. This means that while you’re feasting on your meal, you can hear train whistles blow and feel the rumbles of oncoming trains while you dine. It’s an adventure worth participating in, especially if your kids or family members are real train fanatics!

While the menu features some intriguing bites, it’s the train car though, that draws in the customers. Even the inside of the train car is unique in its own right. The interior of the restaurant features a more modern, upscale decor, which feels like you’re being transported to Asia for a delightful dinner.
