50 Best Sushi Bars near Colesville

“I loved the vegan ramen, menu is full of other vegan options as well. The chef and staff are very helpful and can modify dishes to make it vegan. We got fortune cookies at the end as well but they said they weren't sure if those were vegan. The ramen came in a huge bowl with loads of vegetables and fried tofu, highly recommended!!“

“I stopped in with friends before a event Sunday evening. The staff was warm and welcoming. I had the lentil sambusas and a peanut-infused coffee at the staff’s recommendation. The food was fast and delicious- the sambusas were warm and spicy, and the peanut coffee was delicious! In a kind gesture, the chef sent over a sampling of sushi to our table. Fresh and refreshing, the sushi was a nice complement to my sambusas and hot beverage. I’m not on this side of town often, but now I have a reason to come back.“

“The night before the Marine Corps Marathon, we celebrated our anniversary dinner with family and relatives at Satay Club, a cozy Malaysian restaurant tucked in the heart of Washington DC. I’m always on the lookout for authentic flavors — and this place truly impressed us with every bite.

We started our feast with their signature Satay — both chicken and lamb. Perfectly grilled with smoky charred edges, the skewers were tender and flavorful, complemented beautifully by the rich, nutty peanut sauce. It felt like a taste of Kuala Lumpur in DC!

Next came the salted fish fried rice, aromatic and full of wok hei (that irresistible smoky aroma). The balance of savory salted fish, soft egg, and crisp vegetables made it comfort food at its best. The calamari dish was crispy on the outside and tender inside, served with colorful bell peppers and crunchy shallots — a delightful mix of texture and spice.

We also loved the tofu and eggplant stir-fry, which came in a deliciously savory sauce — rich, hearty, and deeply satisfying. To end the evening, we indulged in ice chendol and fried banana, a sweet and refreshing finish that brought nostalgic memories of Southeast Asia.

Satay Club is a gem — family-run, warm, and truly authentic. A perfect place for Malaysian food lovers and a wonderful way to celebrate before marathon day! 🇲🇾🍢🍚💛“

“Love this new addition to Bethesda! Every Japanese restaurant has a different take on the “classics” and its own specials, and we’ve enjoyed everything from Takumi. Special appreciation for the vegan options, because they are definitely not universally available.“

“I finally had the chance to experience Sushiko's omakase, and I only wish I had gone sooner because it was absolutely incredible. Our sushi chef was wonderful and incredibly accommodating; it was clear he genuinely wanted our food to be perfect and our experience to be positive. Although the omakase is priced at $140 per person and was supposed to be a fourteen-course meal, we received more than fourteen courses. That extra surprise made the price feel easy to justify.

A tip for those planning on coming for the omakase who want to save a little on drinks is to arrive slightly early and grab beverages in the bar area, as the omakase tasting takes place during their happy hour (which runs from 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM). You do have to close your tab at the bar and move to the sushi counter, but we were able to bring our drinks over without any problem.“

“Amazing sushi! I've tried Kusshi, kura Sushi, and Uzu Sushi in the Rockville area and was not impressed with their quality at all. However, Sushi Toro is always consistent with their quality especially for their price. The sushi tastes amazing and fresh, the service is wonderful, and the atmosphere is perfect for a date night or a casual dinner with friends. Easily the best sushi I've had in Rockville. Highly recommend!“

“Food and service are always excellent.“

“We have been to TaiPei Tokyo Cafe several times and have enjoyed the meal and the service from Flora and Kylie. They and the way our food was prepared and served always makes the visit enjoyable. I have tried many items on their menu and never disappointed. We will certainly go back. John“

“I had been waiting 3 years ever since the sign went up saying this was coming to my area. Finally for my birthday I got the chance to go and it was not a let down. The front of house staff was very friendly and seated my party immediately. The waitress took no time at all to get our drinks and come back with them and take our complete order. We put everything in at the same time and they did an excellent job of pacing the salads, appetizers, and main meal. The food was absolutely fantastic and gorgeous to look at. I will be returning so we can sit for a hibachi show! The only thing is I slyly mentioned it was my birthday hoping to get a song, but that did not happen lol.“

“Excellent high-quality fresh food and friendly service. The dishes looked beautiful and the ambience is superb.“

“Ruth was fantastic!! She made our two year anniversary special by being attentive just because - She didn’t even know we were celebrating anything. We ordered happy hour dishes, which were mostly your standard - but the oysters had an Asian flare to them and were prepped so they were nice and easy to eat. Maryland roll and Scallop roll were amazing, and every Sashimi we had (Amberjack, yellowtail, bluefin tuna) were some of the most delicious and fresh sashimi I’ve ever had. We will definitely be coming back!! (The dessert was also super cute & Delicious)“

“If you want to impress and delight your guests, or just have an amazing meal at home with your family, this is the place. Beautiful, delicious sushi platters lovingly created by a perfectionist. Take-out only. We’ve relied on Kanpai Sushi for special occasions for many years. You won’t be disappointed.“

“The cook was great gesture playing with knives and preparing food“

“Everything was delicious, served fresh, and authentic.

We recently moved to the area and have been on the hunt to find a go-to sushi spot. I think we found it! Portions were great, price was fair, and it felt great supporting a local business over all the chains around Rockville and Bethesda. A couple chefs and one super friendly woman serving the food.

This isn’t the place you go to for a full on dining experience with fancy/expensive cocktails. Because the majority of their business is takeout, everything was served out of to-go containers. As long as you don’t have issues with this, as we didn’t, you’ll enjoy it.

Best fried tofu I’ve had in the US.“

“Great service and great food. Place always is clean. Good portions of food.“

“Our sorority held a fundraiser with Kusshi recently, and not only were they easy to work with and incredibly generous, but the service was helpful and quick, and the food was beautifully plated, fresh and delicious. Def recommend going for a nice night out!“

“Sushi is always fresh and tasty. Don’t skip the non-fish items, which are also delicious. I haven’t gone into DC for sushi since I discovered Ikko a few years ago.“

“i love this place! Great vibes, such a wonderful aura. Eli took care of my party's every need. So professional! 10/10 will definitely be back!“

“Always a great time at Kura! Always bring my daughter, she loves the Robot helping with drinks! I'm not some sushi connoisseur but I like it and I've never gotten sick eating it. They always have specials and keep sending me $5 n $10 coupons for future visits! So I'll keep coming back.
Oh... Reserve your spot ahead of time on App! Comes in clutch when they busy!“

“Kusshi in Downtown Rockville and Bethesda have the best quality fish in Maryland it’s always fresh. We visit this location at least a couple times a week. Jay always goes out of her way to make sure we have a great dining experience. Always friendly service, good food and drinks.“

“There are no words to describe this place. You will never find better food for $12 in your life I promise you that. I was skeptical at first seeing as they are inside a gas station but hands down 10/10!“

“Imagine you get out of work late, want sushi.
Go here.
The atmosphere is calm and quiet, soft jazz is playing and the only other noise is the motion of the chef making your order.
This is perfection.
I want every experience here to be like this.
*chefs kiss*“

“You can’t go wrong at Raku, their food is fantastic, well cooked and fresh!“

“Tremendous sushi and sake. Great atmosphere. Have been coming here for many years. Always a treat.“

“This is a great place to shop as a vegan. They have so many vegan products. They have so many delicious vegan options at their food bar too. I love how you can get a healthy vegan meal at a relatively decent price when on the go. They also have lots of vegan options in thier bakery like vegan muffins, scones, donuts, turnovers, and cookies. This is one of my favorite places to grab a quick meal.“

“Love this place! It’s absolutely beautiful and the staff is incredibly friendly. I came once and sat at the bar, and now it’s become my weekly spot for fresh sushi and handcrafted cocktails!
Helen is amazing—always smiling and giving off such positive, welcoming energy. She really makes you feel invited and appreciated. And Vanessa is SO sweet! She always checks in to make sure I’m doing okay.
Highly recommend!“

“As a Japanese myself, this is a true mom and pop shop with authentic food! I got a futomaki and they were made right in front of me! The owners were so kind and helpful and the prices were amazing too! A lot of variety and actual snacks you would find in Japan!!“

“We were very impressed with the quality of sushi and the level of customer service - when we got home from picking up our order tonight, we realized they’d forgotten to give us our miso soups and shrimp tempura appetizers while there. We saw that they’d called us to let us know and one of the team had also chased after my husband as he drove away. Anyway, they made it right and we will be a repeat customer for sure! Our kids loved the edamame, crunchy California roll and soups, and we recommend the Sushi & Sashimi combo. Delicious!“

“This place is awesome ! Good food, great staff, beautiful atmosphere. You can tell that they put time , love, and care into their dishes and cocktails. 10/10 would recommend!“

“This is my favorite sushi place in DMV area. The owner is professional: the size of nigiri sushi with balanced rice and raw fish ratio, and provide pre-order plater wit the perfect condition without making them in advance so that they do not stored in fridge which is great.
Below is $100 plater with Sashimi, Nigiri, and rolls.“

“This really cute little Japanese shop was a great experience. On the simple side, but sushi was delicious and my friends enjoyed their food as well (one got chicken soup, and one got chicken teriyaki noodles). The workers were also very welcoming and nice, especially when they learned it was our first time coming to eat there. Reasonable priced, will be back again :)“

“This is the ONLY place I go for when I am craving a good ramen with soup ! You can never go wrong with their chicken katsu or spicy bulgogi steak with their Tori shoyu soup base!! Super delicious and flavorful ! Other ramen shops don’t have this type of flavor in their broth but Maki does ! Added bonus if you get their dango for dessert ! Super yummy and chewy 10/10 for me !“

“Highly recommend! The food was to die for and the service was great! No wait time and everything was decently priced! My favorite was the aguachiles especial with salsa negra. The tuna and shrimp was also soo good. Tuna taste fresh and they have so many different hot sauces to compliment the dishes. The fish taco was crunchy but fresh at the same time and the beef taco was wrapped in a cheese filling - wow! Cannot wait to come back! I didn’t try any drinks but will be back soon!“

“The hibachi shrimp bento box was really good. Everything was nicely seasoned. The dumplings and spring rolls were fried but not greasy. The California roll was good too. The quality of their sticky rice for the hibachi was great and they give you a lot. Service was quick and it’s made fresh to order. They ask you if you want teriyaki sauce on top of the hibachi before serving it. All plates come with a side of yum yum sauce. Quiet atmosphere, not the best plaza or neighborhood but it’s always busy and looks like they sell a lot. Will be back.“

“Recently ate here and I am interested in coming back to try something else. I got the arctic shrimp roll. It was pretty good but I didn’t read that it was rice paper instead of seaweed. The chef seemed a bit irritated by my mistake so I just left it alone.“

“You can't beat the location of Pantry, right at the Petworth-Georgia Ave Metro station. I've been a loyal customer here since around 2014, back when it was Sah La Thai, and the quality has never dropped. The service is always good, and the food is consistently fresh. My son and I agree: the rice dishes, noodles, sushi, and wings are all absolutely yummy and our go-to favorites. A true neighborhood staple.“

“My family has been coming here for a couple decades and we love them! Always kind service, food and cuts of sushi great as well as cooked foods for reasonable prices over the years we’ve celebrated many a birthday and casual weekend dinners here . 💙💙💙“

“Just had an awesome meal at Kusshi Sushi last week with my friend. She is a sushi lover and mentioned the sashimi was fresh and perfect. The sweet shrimp was sweet, dedicate, and tasty. She loved the crispy shrimp head too. The vibe was chill and the staff were super nice. She said the price was only half of what she would pay in New York. If you love sushi, do yourself a favor and hit up Kusshi.“

“$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!“

“First time coming here and wow! The broth tastes very authentic and really enjoyed the sushi taco. The seaweed was crispy and wrapped nicely with the food that was inside. They also have udon as an option for noodles but you’ll have to pay extra, not by much though. The atmosphere is also very lovely!“

“5 star cozy very friendly food is the Bomb. eat here 1 a week.“

“Great restaurant. Better than the other place in Bethesda.“

“One of my favorite places to get sushi. They have a good special for two or three roles and then miso soup. The waitress recognizes us and brings stuff we always get without us even having to ask. My boyfriend loves the hibachi rice with yum yum sauce and the sweet and sour chicken. I definitely would recommend giving it a try.“

“just got ENGAGED!!!Oh and dinner was great too“

“If you like udon soup, you must try this place! Best udon I’ve had in Maryland. Shumai is great too - fresh and didn’t taste too fishy. Sushi (Kani tempura) is not the best but man, this udon is to die for 👌🏽“

“5 stars - Have loved Tako for years! I miss the grill but the food is consistently tasty and presented beautifully.“

“I discovered this restaurant after getting my lashes done at Evalash and decided to give it a try since it’s relatively new. I’m so glad I did! I ordered the spicy kimchee fried rice to go and enjoyed some spring rolls and wine while I waited. The spring rolls came out quickly, were perfectly crisp, and absolutely delicious — I wish I’d ordered extra to take home! But the real standout was the fried rice. Packed with flavor, the kimchee was just right, and the pork belly I chose as my protein made it even better. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Great sushi spot! The fish is always fresh, the flavors are well-balanced, and everything is prepared really neatly. I order from here often and have tried plenty of other sushi places in the area, but this one consistently delivers top quality. Definitely recommend! 🍣✨“

“Service is a bit slow, but the food is mostly good. I got a shrimp tempura salad with spicy mayo and added avocado. The bowl was stuffed, which is great but also made it a bit difficult to eat, especially with the shrimp tempura on top. I wish the shrimp tempura was pre-cut into smaller bitable pieces. I ended up taking my bowl home and dumping it into a bigger dish, so that I could easily eat it. My aunt ordered vegetable bibimbap, which was okay. The rice was very plain.“

“Back to the scene of Lan’s and my first date!“
