42 Best Asian Restaurants near Capitol Heights

“Memory lane. My old friend used to get food from here and share it with me. I didn't know that and didn't understand why she braved through the hood for this place until I left the DMV area. It's worth it. This was the first place that I was introduced to Chinese carryout food and mumbo sauce. Check this out: Mumbo sauce is a DIP for fried chicken wings and not a wet rub. The correct and best way is to dip your fried chicken wings in the mumbo sauce (like you dip your wings in ranch dressing). If you want to smother your wings in mumbo sauce, then that is your personal preference, but anyone or any place serving the wings to you already smothered in mumbo sauce is wrong. Mumbo sauce is pink and is supposed to come in a condiment cup (just like ranch dressing). Another thing: The wings here taste good on their own and better with mumbo sauce. Best wings in the DMV. Best mumbo sauce in the DMV. Best wings & mumbo sauce pairing in the DMV. I said it. I left the DMV years ago and there is no American Chinese carryout that compares to this place in my travels. Trust me, only NYC Chinese carryouts can dare compete. I only took off a star because of my ordering experience years ago. I brought my brother here to order carryout because I am not brave enough to go to the hood by myself, and the lady who took my order was rude, not nice, unfriendly, unwelcoming, the worst. It's as if I wasn't a human being. If I wasn't determined to have my brother taste the food (he agreed that it tasted really good), then I would have turned around and said forget it.“

“Let’s get into it. Customer service was amazing. The ladies were very helpful and pleasant. Food was hot & ready. We tried the Baltimore Yakamein. Now, we don’t have the original Baltimore Yak to compare it too, however this was so delicious 🤤 that we don’t feel the need to even take that trip. The space was clean and inviting for a carryout. The price was perfect 👌🏾 We will be returning.“

“Must have the Mochi fantastic“

“Love this hidden gem. Food is great every time.“

“not. a. single. miss. went here for a date and the vibes were immaculate -- we were seated at one of the window seats, allowing us a great view of passerby. we ordered the salmon belly with jeow som, perfectly fatty and tangy; the jaew bong wings with the sauce that was so unforgettable that i had to scoop it over my rice; incredibly tender thom khem (pork ribs); sweet-but-not-too-sweet black sesame sticky rice with green tea ice cream as dessert. absolutely going to return. recommend a reservation if possible.“

“It was a pleasant experience, the atmosphere was nice and welcoming.

The host / waiter were super friendly, super nice which made my experience even better. Thank you Nancy

The restaurant was tidy and clean 9/10.

Talking about the food: I ordered,

● Fresh shrimp summerroll: it was fresh and done the right way, and the peanut sauce was good.
● Chiken spring roll: was crispy and not greasyat all, I did not like the souce that comeswith it (you need to make a new soice please).
● Dumpling: I had netter, can be much better.
● Pho beef combination: was just perfectly done, the broth was flavorful so as a whole it was just delicious.

Food quality was great and fresh, survise was really good and fast.

Would I come back? Yes I would and Highly recommend it.“

“Visited over the weekend, service was outstanding! They were so helpful and friendly, guiding us through ordering and making recommendations. The food was too-notch! Bright and refreshing, and with LOTS of flavor! I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for something fresh and new!“

“First time and I'll be back 😋“

“DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY! Tiny portions and mediocre food for insane prices. Do Not Recommend! We waited 15 minutes to be asked if we needed water. then 10 more until they even brought it. The Thai rice was kinda mushy, the Peanut noodles were so so and the Garlic noodles was such a small portion I thought I was being punked which i tried eating made it half way and didnt finish. Then when the staff asked why were weren't eating the food they didn't even bother to comp or just apologize after we told the manager how we felt. Terrible experience and honestly the worst food I've eaten in DC in the last few months of visiting! I would have rather gone to CAVA.“

“The food is always excellent“

“$2 Crazy Hour is absolutely insane! They have a great selection of sushi and various appetizers. The sushi is the same high quality as their dinner service ,the fish pieces are huge and incredibly fresh. The alcohol are 50% off, and the selection is massive,they're not stingy like other places that only offer one or two brands. It's a super friendly restaurant, and you absolutely cannot find a better deal in town!“

“MohMohLicious is delicious! They have an extensive menu, including lots of vegetarian options, and the portions are substantial—I get two days of leftovers from one entree. The food is fresh, piping hot, and just generally delectable. All in an unassuming little shop on Georgia Ave. The in-restaurant seating is limited (and chilly in the winter), so you might want to consider takeout.“

“My experience at Kata was a great one. From the food, music, service, and the ambiance. Diona handle my reservation and was sure that I had everything I needed. There was even a slight mix up with the bill and she got it taken care of on her day off. I would definitely recommend.“

“✨So grateful for Taku Sushi to have opened on H st! 🤩I finally got a chance to try it out, everything was wonderful. It’s just what H st needs, a classic Japanese restaurant with delicious food, cozy environment and kind and friendly staff. I got the salmon bento box, something I usually don’t go for but WOW am I glad I did! Everything was cooked/ prepared perfectly! You can tell it’s all made fresh, I actually feel healthy after eating. I took it to go but snapped some photos before eating it all-not pictured is the miso soup. Can’t wait to make it back again soon 😊✨ ✨✨“

“fresh, fast, and delicious. I'm visiting from Orlando and have enjoyed trying out the local quisine My meal at Bibibop has been my favorite so far and the staff was super friendly and the restaurant very clean.“

“Great food and awesome staff! 5 of 5 for sure.“

“Visiting DC for the weekend and had to look for some halal Chinese food. As a houstonian, I’m picky about my food choices. Oh my god I’m so happy to have tried New Dynasty. Mom and pop shop run by a husband and wife. They’ve been open for 30+ years. Such a sweet couple and so kind. The food came quickly and it was all so delicious. It was so good I had to DoorDash it the next day. Definitely will be back if I’m back in the city!“

“I recently visited this spot and had an absolutely wonderful experience from the moment I walked through the doors. If you're looking for fantastic Asian cuisine, this place definitely needs to be on your radar.

​First off, the service is incredibly friendly and welcoming. The staff made us feel right at home immediately, and one of my favorite highlights was the complimentary hot tea they provided right as we sat down. It’s such a comforting, traditional touch that really sets a relaxing tone for a great meal.

​As for the menu, the food was simply great. Everything we ordered came out piping hot, beautifully plated, and packed with incredible flavor. You can tell they really care about the quality of their ingredients and the authenticity of their dishes. The meal completely exceeded my expectations.
​One quick heads-up for anyone planning to visit specifically for the market: the attached grocery portion of the business is currently shut down. It didn't negatively impact our dining experience at all, but it’s definitely good to know if you were planning to pick up some ingredients after your meal.

​Overall, between the top-notch food, the stellar and attentive service, and the cozy atmosphere, it was a fantastic visit. I will absolutely be coming back again soon to explore more of the menu. Highly recommend!“

“Not only is every dish delicious, but the service at Isshin is so warm, so welcome and so lovely. Secret menu item is the handmade dumplings (they have two types so ask for these specifically). Their miso soup is very rich but not overly salty, which can be difficult to find, yet it is here daily and for a good price. I’m particularly in love with their udon noddles, which I get vegetarian with tofu, and the veggies are perfectly crisp. Their sushi rolls are fresh and I never get the seaweed burps. They know us when we walk in and make my wife and I feel like family. Become a regular, it’s worth it.“

“A really pleasant surprise in Union Station, an alternative to sandwiches, fast food. Very diverse oriental menu. Both my and my spouses dishes were very tasty, served up quickly, and really ample (burp!). Most tables out in the open of the station so ambient noisy is present. We were in transit and this place will be on our list of where to eat.“

“Khin’s Sushi gets my vote for tasty sushi at reasonable prices. Khin’s is in an odd space. They share their small and minimal dining area with a pizza place. Khin’s also sells gelato. It’s a weird one-stop-shop for all things lunch. But I digress. We tried a variety of basic sushi like their California roll. It was all good. The rolls were not huge. But we enjoyed them. The service is a bit gruff. And the ambiance is pure 80’s fast food. But forget about all of that. Go in, grab some sushi while your spouse/partner/friend grabs a slice. And enjoy a good meal together. We will return.“

“Small and cozy setting food was great. The only issue is limited parking in the area.“

“Cool little spot. Great service and very fresh tasting food.“

“This place was so much fun it feels like you’re in the club but better because you get to pick and sing all your favorite songs. They offer good drink deals and great promotions for the karaoke rooms. Food was delicious too. Great atmosphere everyone looks like they’re having a great time, will definitely be coming back.“

“Best Asian/ Sushi spot in Eastern Silver Spring! Very clean and food cooked hot to order. I enjoyed the titanic roll and the Chicken Brocoli. Good prices and good portions. They have parking in rear. Nice staff. And there’s a bar with a couple TV of you want watch a game and enjoy lunch or dinner.“

“I stopped by for a bowl of the pork wonton soup on my lunch break and it was delicious. The staff was very friendly and I enjoyed the ease of using the self kiosk to order. I was also impressed with the reusable bag and utensils set for to go orders. I will definitely be back to try other menu items.“

“I went at noon and it was not crowded at all, and it was quiet, a big bonus for me these days. No loud music and people shouting in order to converse over it. The food was very good, very fresh. I highly recommend this restaurant for Asian fusion cuisine and sushi.“

“It was my 1st and it won’t be my last...Love, love it😍“

“This has been our go to Chinese food restaurant since we moved to the neighborhood, and we have loved it... the Salt and Pepper Calamari is amazing. Last two visits we were disappointed, so fingers crossed we can have a better experience next time!“

“Had my dinner there. The Asian cuisine is yummy and the prices are reasonable. Friendly , helpful and attentive staffs. Clean n cosy ambience. If you are yearning for Asian cuisine while there, seek out for Banana Leaves Asian Restaurant ! Bon Appetit! 😋😋😋👍👍👍🍻🥂🍷“

“Dined in for a late lunch. Had the Singapore Noodles and really enjoyed it. Would definitely recommend.“

“Quick competent service, a little under flavored combination fried rice. Needed a little vinegar as over oiled. The individual meat, tofu and veg items in the fried rice were cooked perfectly.
I guess just ask for a little less less. They are just get some vinegar or chili oil and add it. When I added the chili oil, that's pretty good.
Only a couple outdoor tables.“

“I had a craving for sushi and checked uber eats and they had a buy one get one free deal on a few items! We took advantage of the bogo deal and chose the sashimi appetizer (salmon, yellowtail, and tuna) and the spicy salmon roll. All of the fish were so fresh and tasty. We also grabbed an avocado salad which comes with ginger dressing. In my opinion, the dressing is a bit on the sweeter side and would have preferred less so. Definitely a winner in my book for quick service that’s dependable regarding freshness and taste!“

“I regularly order sushi from this restaurant and usually go for either the Shrimp Tempura Roll or the Salmon Tempura Roll with added cream cheese inside the roll. However, today was a disappointing experience. I ordered two lunch specials (which should include a total of four rolls) through Uber Eats, requesting the Salmon Tempura Roll with cream cheese inside the roll.

Unfortunately, I only received one lunch special (just two rolls), which I reported through the Uber Eats app for a refund. On top of that, instead of adding the cream cheese inside the roll as requested, it was just placed on top—which really affects the flavor and overall experience. Anyone who enjoys sushi knows that how the roll is made impacts the taste.

While I’m disappointed with this order, I still enjoy their food and hope this was just a one-off mistake.“

“Ordered on Uber eats… came hot, good portion of food and tasty. I got the Salmon Bento box… loved that it came with spring rolls, dumplings and California rolls in addition to your entree with two included sides. All for an extremely affordable price, wish I knew about this place sooner!“

“Absolutely delicious food! I first came here six years ago for my husband’s birthday after hearing about the restaurant from a foodie. It’s an unpretentious spot with incredibly good food. We ordered 10+ different dishes that first time and loved everything, especially the dan dan noodles and the pork bun. Nothing can ever compare to their Dan Dan noodles no matter how many times we order them from different restaurants!

We moved far away after a few years, but when we came back to visit friends this month, this was the first restaurant we wanted to return to. The food was just as delicious as it was six years ago. Highly recommend!“

“Everything was delicious 😋“

“Great but about just as good as their Rockville counterpart. Favorful soup and fresh veggies. The area here unfortunately isn't as safe feeling so we'll have to stick to Rockville.

Service is fast and cordial. The atmosphere is inviting and business seems always busy.“

“I placed a Door dash order so I can't speak to the atmosphere. However the food was amazing. I ordered the Chicken and Shrimp Combo, the Shrimp Bento Box, Spring Rolls, and the Dancing Shrimp Roll. The bento box was my favorite but everything was mouthwatering. I'll definitely order again from here.“

“Spot on broth. No condiments required. Hold my beer.“
