We had the hamachi carpaccio, Mr. Okamura roll, and Zeppelin roll all were good. To drink we had heartbreakers which ended up being spicier than any of the food dishes that came with jalapeños. Would definitely go back and try the omakase.

I haven't tried every single sushi place in the city, but Zepp is by far my favorite -- especially for food quality and amount for the dollar. The attention to detail is impressive. And the ambiance is so much cooler than other sushi places.

As someone who really loves sushi, I can confidently say this is the best sushi restaurant in DC. Every piece is incredibly fresh, thoughtfully prepared, and full of clean, balanced flavor. You can taste the quality in every bite. The chefs clearly take pride in their craft, and it shows—from the precision of the cuts to the creativity on the menu. The ambience is calm and elegant without being pretentious, making it perfect for anything from a casual dinner to a special night...
