“I stopped by Greenbelt mall to pick up an item that I had printed. When entering the mall, there was a young guy handing out teriyaki chicken samples on a stick. From that moment, I was hooked. The meat was so tender and very flavorful. After I picked up my item, I ended up stopping and getting two plates. I got teriyaki chicken, no veggies with half noodles and half fried rice. OMG! It was so good. When you ask for extra teriyaki sauce, they give you extra teriyaki sauce. The portions were large. There was enough for me to take for lunch the next day. The location was very clean and you could see all the way back to the kitchen area where the food was being prepared. The customer service was ok. I think the cashier got a little annoyed with me. I purchased two meals and I asked for 2 yum-yum sauces. They cost $0.50 each. Since we purchased two meals, one sauce should have been included with each meal, in my opinion.“
“Amazing! The sushi tasting menu was exceptional and filling! Delicious and whimsical cocktails. Bar in the back, very hip and chic workout being pretentious. Wagyu beef skewers from the bar was one of the best things I’ve ever had. All the skewers were amazing and the fried chicken and other bar snacks are classic bar foods, but way elevated- can not wait for the rest of the space to open!“
“If you are craving great sushi and great service you have to come here!!!! I got the firecracker roll and the seaweed salad and it was soo good and very fresh!! Jc was my server and he was the best server I’ve had hands down!!! 100000/10.“

“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.“
“Fantastic sushi tucked away in an unassuming strip mall. I’ve been a couple times because there are so many appealing sushi rolls and they have all been fantastic. The fish is fresh, the proportions are good. I’d avoid the cocktails, they are underwhelming. They can be slow when busy but that should be expected when sushi is being made to order.“
“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.“
“Small, quaint hidden gem. Food is AMAZING!!! Reasonably priced. Everything is cooked super fast and brought out to your table. Indoor and outdoor seating is available. Mixed croud- young adults and families. Fun pop culture decor all throughout.“
“Staff was excellent also the chefs are alot of fun to watch prepare my food and talk with,The food and management was 10 out 10.Strongly recommend this place.Dietary restrictions: Allergic to avocados totally AccommodatedI am not a vegetarian....“
“Yummy food with a great atmosphere! I had the Salman Gohan, which is a bowl with rice with salmon, corn, and other great flavors on top. The ratio was good to mix everything together, with a bit of rice left over at the end. It tasted very good, but it cost $18. The portion was sufficient for a meal, but I would have liked a bit more salmon for the price. The quality is good, but for $18 I prolly would have preferred all you can eat dinner at the dining hall. The service was really good and any questions I asked were promptly and politely answered. I got my food 5 minutes after the time I was told by the automated text message, and this wasn’t good because the person I was with had to catch their bus. The atmosphere is great, with a wood and plant theme. The kitchen is visible and connect to a tabletop with barstools. There is a cool large mural on one wall. I will definitely be back here to try some ramen and onigiri, but for now I give Onikama Ramen Bar 4 stars!“
“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.“
“Absolutely some of the best ramen I ever had. Every element was flavorful. I also enjoyed the pork bun and the cold sesame noodles (the pickled ginger was such a nice touch!). This was my first time eating from her, but it definitely won’t be my last!“
“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.“
“I got the tonkatsu ramen. The broth was rich. The slices of pork were fresh, juicy, tender, slightly sweet, and abundant. There were at least 6 slices in that bowl. The assortment of vegetables and narutomaki added unique, delicious tastes and textures to the dish. Their food presentation is perfect. You'd have to see it to believe it. The ramen actually looks like it's straight out of those food commercials and restaurant food posters. All in all, it's a great place to eat.“
“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.“
“This review is for 2 sushi rolls; I'll update this later if I try some other items. Bento Express opened about a year ago, across the street from my neighborhood. Its fast food Japanese, which is new to me. I was late coming home last night and in a pinch for food so I finally gave this spot a try. I got two salmon rolls, the Salmon Lover and the Spicy Salmon Roll, which were $9.95 and $6.95 respectively. Compared to a normal restaurant the pricing is great, especially given that the fish and ingredients were all very fresh. Downside is that neither rolls had much flavor, which is kind of odd considering they were both drizzled with spicy mayo sauce. Usually I don't need soy sauce for a lot of my sushi but in this case I did. Food Quality: 5 stars Food Flavor: 2.5 stars Value: 5 stars Service: 5 stars Ambience: 4 stars Honestly, despite the lack of flavor in the rolls, the food seemed so fresh that I'd give it another try.“
“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!!“
“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!“
“Devon was the nicest and best waitress we ever had. My family and I often go to Kabu because we like the food. This time not only was the food good are waitress Devon was so wonderful. She was kind, nice and showed great patience. We came on a Monday so there weren’t a lot of chefs for Hibachi. There was a wait but she checked in to keep us updated. We didn’t mind waiting because of her. The chef we had that night was also wonderful. I almost didn’t come back to Kabu because the last waitress I had wasn’t nice. If you are looking for a nice waitress ask for Devon.Kid-friendliness: I like how the chef engages my sons and Devon was sweet enough to get them some child chopsticks.“
“This restaurant currently only has takeaway or order. Waiting outside for your takeaway is a bit odd experience but don’t let it put you off. The food is delicious and the portions are huge. I had teriyaki. I hope for this place that they can open completely again.“
“My family and I have been about three times now. Each time we have enjoyed our meals. We have always taken out. It has been a good quick meal that's not too expensive. Which. And be hard to do now-a-days! Service is always pretty fast. No complaints here.@_Unk_RP“
“This is my absolute favorite spot in DC for Asian food! Their cooked dishes are very good and their Japanese sushi menu is amazing. It is very affordable and they give very generous portions! They are also so friendly here and the atmosphere is very cute“
“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.“
“I grew up in Seattle and recently had a craving for just some basic Americanized teriyaki. First I tried Go-Stir Fry Express in Wheaton mall... was a bit disappointed, but it scratched the itch. Then I tried Hibachi Express in Kensington - Much better, not bad at all. But I like this one even more. They ask if you want extra teriyaki on top at the end, and they have more vegetables and chile sauce available (If I were to guess, probably just your run of the mill Huy-Fong Chili Garlic Sauce, but it's a nice contrast on your veggies and rice to the sweet . There's a white sauce too, but I cannot hang with mayo and I am 99% sure it's probably based on mayo. Only problem is that if I am going to Bestway across the street now, I have to decide between this, Aarash Market, or Pupuseria Vanessa if I'm hungry.“
“Just a great Japanese express restaurant since I had the combination of chicken, beef, and shrimp, in addition to the General Tso's chicken were just phenomenal and the Godzilla roll was just a blast. 9/10 just could include a few more items on the menu.“

“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.“
“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.“
“The prices are decent and I enjoyed my Chicken Teriyaki very much. They have great portions as well, which gave me the chance to get two meals in one. Dinner on Monday, lunch on Tuesday! The service was done the "quickway" they take orders with precision and double check everything before sending it to the kitchen. The setup is decent, booth like seating and there's a station to collect your food and grab condiments or a drink. There's ample parking around, which makes the dining in experience even better.“
“I rarely write reviews but I have to give this place credit. They have really good food. I'm vegetarian so I usually get the Tofu dishes. There are no weird aftertaste or smells like the food from some of the other carry outs in the area. The vegetables are fresh and actually taste like vegetables. Lol. The cashier is isn't rude. I highly recommend stopping here if you're in the area.“
“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.“
“Really good Chinese wasn’t a long wait very patient on the phone when we called in the order. I ordered about $130 worth of food so that was a plus. We asked for certain things to made specifically and everything came as ordered. Very impressed would highly recommend.“
“Very solid Chinese takeout. The customer service was great and delivery was quick. I thought the food was good and the price reasonable for a causal, quick, Chinese meal when you don’t feel like leaving the house. It’s my go to for that scenario.“
“Hubby had been bemoaning lack of good fast casual hibachi near us, the other options he'd tried being less than desirable. So when I saw Kobe had such good reviews, we had to give it a try. All in all I was quite happy with our meals. I had a beef + noodle bento (noodles are 50c extra but absolutely worth it), he had a chicken bento. It was all good, but the chicken was better than the beef, mainly because the beef was just slightly overdone. They'd gotten a nice char on it but went too far as it was no longer juicy on the inside. The chicken on the other hand had a nice outer char but was still nice and juicy. Both were well marinated, as were the noodles that came with my bento (delicious!). The bento also came with a few pieces of california roll (which were just fine), two fried dumplings (which were also fine) and two crab rangoons (which were definitely heavier on the cream-cheese and scallion than crab, I'm not sure whether any crabs were actually harmed in the making of these...but they tasted good so that's all I care about).The meal size was just a little bigger than I needed to be full. Probably not a split-in-two size, but a good single meal size, and besides the fried sides wouldn't keep well. The prices are reasonable, each bento was in the 10-11 dollar range plus the upcharges. I had read that yum yum sauce was an upcharge, but the lady brought us two to our table. I'd definitely order them, they are quite tasty, kind of like a fruity mayo flavor. They had canned sodas so we split one. IIRC there were about half a dozen tables if you want to eat in. I'm thinking next time I might order a bowl instead of a bento and take part of it home. I think I read the bowls come with veggies in addition to the meat and rice/noodles. I will definitely get the noodles though as they are super yum.“
“Food is delicious! ? They have a bento box, sushi and all kinds of noodle combinations. Salmon, chicken beef. Near Montgomery College. Go here for lunch great prices. Food delicious they truly deserve 5 stars ? can eat inside. Parking is available, they have water, teas sodas no alcohol but really great food. It's a hit!“

“I always love coming here , the food is excellent, especially for the price , the only thing that's keeping me from giving it 5 stars is the fact that they don't have sriracha sauce anymore , that was my favorite sauce and the fact that they don't have it anymore makes me not wanna come here as often because there's other locations that do have sriracha“
“Food was okay. The service was friendly and nice. The value of the sushi was decent but I wouldn't likely return. It's a decent sushi spot for the location, but I wouldn't come from any long distance to attend. I think the atmosphere is classic takeout Japanese restaurant .“
