“Akeno is my new favorite sushi spot! Not only is the food amazing, but the people that own and run it are the kindest, most appreciative people I have ever met! We get great service, the ambiance is perfect and we have fun with the staff. If the truffle salmon is on the specials menu, do yourself a favor and ORDER IT! You can thank me later.“
“Very nice restaurant. It doesn’t have a lot of tables so the space is small and cozy. You can see how they prepare the food from your seat and the owners are very kind. Good value for money. We especially recommend their boxes. The sushi was also very tasty.“
“Excellent ??????I enjoyed the Chicken ? and ? Shrimp ?I customized my order with vegetables and fried rice ?. I choose to top my order with Teriyaki sauce, scallions and sesame seeds.Very nice portions. Good value for the money.Parking: There is plenty of free parking ?️ in the rear. The parking in the front is limited because of all the stores. This restaurant is located on the corner.“
“Served our multi-generational family of 6 delicious food at super speed on a Friday night with the most attentive & kind staff. Our party sampled the menu, having both sushi & Thai food. The vegetarian maki rolls were out of this world. The pad Thai delighted our pickiest family member. Everything was totally delicious. Highly recommend, perfect place to bring the kids & grandparents.“
“This was the best sushi I have ever had. My father in law has been to Japan several times and he went on and on about how incredible the quality was. We were not expecting such incredible sushi, so fresh and delicious!! Truly an unforgettable experience.“

“First time eating here, it was a win. I ordered the spicy beef bento box and shrimp bento box takeout, and it was fresh, hot, great portions, with a side of yamm yamm sauce and rice and steamed cabbage.Gotta be the best deal in town. Place was clean and the employees nice. Will definitely be ordering from here again.“
“We went to AKO by Kenaki for my birthday and we really enjoyed it! The sushi was innovative but very tasty. As you might know, this is located in the Roost which is more of a food hall vibe. We sat at a counter and ordered on the app and it was delivered to us. Only complaint was that it was a little pricey and only open on certain days for lunch but overall pleased with the food and experience“
“BYOB.Astonishingly good fish. Some of the best imaginable. The chef opened with cuts of fatty tuna that would be the star at a different restaurant. And the price extremely reasonable for what you get. 6 stars.That said, a little wall art would go a long way for ambience. For now, just focus on the fish.“
“Great Detroit-style pizza. (The kind that your mom says she will only have one piece, but then ends up eating the leftovers). The breakfast burritos are also very tasty. This place was made for carryout, but everything it cooks is quality. Helpful staff deal with a lot of takeout orders.“
“This place is my go to lunch/sushi place. Such fresh fish and amazing flavors. I always go right when they open to get the freshest pick. I will gatekeep this place and what my order is at all costs but had to leave a review. The staff are so kind and will help you with anything you need. If they don’t have something I always ask if they have it and they make it to order for me!“
“We are from NYC. Had lunch with my family here and left my backpack in the restaurant. The guy in the front found my bag and hold my bag till I contacted him 2 hours later. People make good food and look out for community really touched my heart. Good people are always blessed?? thank you Sakura Express!“
“Sushi Hachi is a must-visit for sushi enthusiasts. Their sushi is made with precision and attention to detail, and the omakase experience is truly exceptional. The intimate setting and attentive service add to the overall dining experience.“
“CAN I SAY THIS IS SOME OF THE BEST SUSHI I'VE HAD IN ALL OF DC!! The flavors in their Seaweed Cucumber Crab salad, and Rainbow and Unagi specialty rolls were music to my tastebuds, so much that we ordered a third one!! My dirty martini and my sister's plum wine added great spirit to our evening and our server was attentive and flowed with our jokes. They also followed great COVID protocol. You must pay them a visit TODAY!!“
“New to the area, and was eager to find a local Thai spot. Had the pad se ew and crab fried rice delivered, and boy was it delicious. Not too fishy on the crab, which I certainly appreciated. Will easily be ordering from this place again. Thank you!“
“I first started dining at Sala Thai restaurant back in 2018 at the Minnesota Ave location, where I instantly fell in love with their chef fried rice and crispy calamari, among other menu items. When I moved to NE, I made the Rhode Island Row location my new go-to spot and have been a regular visitor ever since, indulging in their delicious Thai iced tea and sushi rolls almost daily. My absolute favorite dish is the Mei Fun (without pork or seafood), and I also enjoy their tofu with spicy basil fried rice, curry puffs, spring rolls, and an assortment of specialty rolls. Lately, I've noticed a significant improvement in their interior, menu offerings, and the quality of service, making my dining experience even more enjoyable. I highly recommend paying them a visit for a delightful culinary experience.“
“Fresh sushi & fantastic lunch specials! Everyone from presidents, to congressmen, to celebrities have dined here & loved the food & service as evident by the numerous signed pictures on the wall. This restaurant is also a quick walk away from the National Mall & is a perfect quick lunch while out “
“I've come to La Fantome multiple times for group lunches, thought I'd try out this kitchen since a lot people from my group order here. I do like the ability to order from your phone, it allows you time to look over the menu & not feel rushed. Customer service was good, only interacted with a server when they delivered my food. Had the California Roll which was good for the price. Will order from here again.“
“If you are in the area, go in say hi to Mai. We went in there for the first time today and immediately was merengue dancing. The cooks started dancing too lol! I ask what was the best thing on the menu and Mai hooked us up! Definitely recommend. Also thank you Mai for the extra yum yum sauce.“

“Really good, fresh sushi. Every time I go. Actually this is my go to place, for sushi, when I don't want to drive too far. I frequent the Tropical Thunder, Dynamite, Maryland and Volcano Rolls. I also like the bento boxes, when I want a variety of food. My husband loves the teriyaki plates. The Yum Yum sauce is super spicy! Sweet, but spicy.“
“I could eat this food everyday! It is so good and light you can't stop eating it. I normally just get there spicy tuna and spicy salmon rolls (because I'm allergic to avocado) but they have these lunch bowls that look Amazing! I trying those next!“
“The jalapeño popper sushi was amazing and I'll definitely order again. Unfortunately the shrimp tempura was good but the consistency was too dense. The flavor was good but there was too much rice which took away from the overall taste. I also may be picky because I've lived Japan.“
“This is a great little place. We were looking for a quick place to get sushi without spending a fortune. Ordered the fried cream cheese wontons (not fantastic but tasty), and two sushi burritos (raging bull and the crouching tiger). Both were excellent and filling. Definitely recommend this place. It is a small place in a strip mall setting.“
“I watched a co-worker having what I referred to as "a food fantasy". They recommended this particular location for its service and food. My waze directed me to the location which is adjacent to the JCPENNEY parking lot in a strip with 2 other businesses.I arrived midday and was welcomed by a pleasant woman near the door. Within 5-10 minutes my meal was prepared which was a combo of teriyaki chicken and shrimp with veggies, noodles, green onions, sesame seeds and extra sauce.The staff was very pleasant and appeared to work well together as a team. The portions were generous and I would definitely eat there again. After I got home I too had "a food fantasy". My vegetables were perfectly cooked, not hard or overcooked. The meats were tender, fresh and flavorable.I have since eaten at two other locations and have come back to this one for a new combo. This time I added steak and the next time I will add salmon which came highly recommended by many people.I would definitely recommend this location, the service and the food options.Parking: In front of the business are several parking spaces. The overflow lot of JCPENNEY is available as well.“
