We go many times a year and on all of my family birthdays. The sashimi platers are fantastic and the fish is perfectly prepared. Will definitely be going again and again.

The food was pretty good, but this was one of the worst dining experiences I've ever had. I don't blame the server for our issues. It seems like a larger restaurant issue. It took over 25 minutes for someone to bring us menus, another 30+ minutes for our drinks to come out. Appetizers came out before food. It took another hour for the second round of drinks to come out, and over an hour for our sushi to come out after we ordered. There was also a hair on one of our drinks so it had to be sent back and there was a long wait for another one. We were sitting outside and there were many empty tables around us. This was my second time here and I'll probably never be back

We sat at the sushi counter and enjoyed interacting with the chefs. Excellent service, high-quality sushi which isn't cheap, but very, very good. Great meal before a show at the 9:30 Club.

Hands down the best fish in the city! They always have unique and fresh offerings and a great happy hour. Cocktails are amazing and so is their staff.
Alex
This is my favorite Japanese place in DC. Food is amazing, the variety of drinks and high quality is all over their menus. Highly recommended!
Veronica
This was one of the best experiences I have ever had. The food was incredible, the service exceptional and everyone went above and beyond to make our anniversary dinner extra special. I am from out of town and would return to this restaurant next time I visit.
Owen
Great service, delicious food. Staff were commendably gracious and helpful with a logistical situation. We also really appreciated the solidarity with federal workers at this time. Can't wait to come back and try more high-quality dishes and creative cocktails.

This is one of my go to spots for sushi and drinks with friends. It has a chill but energetic vibe. I always sit at the bar though the outdoor area is nice too. Most recently Jake and Taylor were super friendly behind the bar. I always get the negitoro and spicy yellowtail rolls, and then additional items depending on who I’m with. I recommend the cod and skewers as well.

Great food. While the sushi was fantastic (best you can get for the price), surprisingly, the cod was the most stand out thing for me. I'm not usually a big cod fan but this was truly amazing. Dessert was 10/10 too! 4 stars because the mosquitos were terrible on the patio, and they didn't offer any sort of birthday special. That said, the food was so good I still don't regret choosing them for my birthday meal!

My husband and I wanted to try this place because they had cool godzilla drawing on their wall outside lol The food was great! Better than we expected. Sushi, Katsu, and Takoyaki were fresh and delicious. They have such a cool vibe inside as well.

Solid place for drinks and sushi, they even do HH on the weekend. Fish was fresh and service was friendly. Definitely want to come back and try their omakase.

The sushi was good quality, though on the smaller side portion wise. The drinks were tasty and a good value. The wasabi edamame was a great snack. Cute decor, pretty quick service. I'd come back! But maybe order another appetizer to be full.

Amazing service and sushi, plus some of the best cocktails around. The frozen painkiller drink is the best.
