I’ve been coming to Aji-Nippon since I was young, as has my father. It’s a Bethesda institution, and one of the most authentic japanese restaurants in the DMV. The food is always top notch, their chicken yakisoba is the best i’ve ever had. The service is good too. Highly recommend!
I came to have lunch with my husband on a Friday, the place is super quiet, the food is definitely AMAZING.
The food will definitely make me come back.

Aji-Nippon Restaurant is a longstanding establishment known for its authentic Japanese cuisine. The sushi has been praised for its quality, although portion sizes have been noted as somewhat small. The restaurant's Chirashi and tempura udon dishes have also received positive feedback for their taste and freshness. The food is very authentic and served with rich soups, flame-grilled yakitori, warm rice, and fresh sashimi, making it a true Japanese experience. The cozy, small restaurant is family-run, and the owners are known for their friendly service and authentic, homestyle cooking. The atmosphere is peaceful and culturally immersive. The restaurant has shown dedication to its customers by opening during snowstorms when other places are closed. Despite some reports of rushed service when busy, the overall experience is highly recommended for those seeking genuine Japanese flavors.
