Japanese Restaurants near Dulles

“Dined at Benihana in Dulles with a large group of friends last night. Had an amazing dining experience. Customer service was top-notch and Adrian, the manager, spoiled us rotten. The Shrimp Tempura, lobster, and passion fruit lemonade was delicious!“

“I feel like this place is a hit or miss. I’ve been there three times now. The first time it was amazing, the last two times not so much. In my first visit, we had sushi and it was great! Tasted good and was freshness In my second visit, the chicken teriyaki wasn’t fully cooked and had fatty pieces. The sushi didn’t feel fresh and was lacking flavor too.“

“This feels exactly what I want a sushi place to feel like. It is clean with a nice modern feel and the service is professional but kind. The food came out fast and all of the sushi was delicious, my favorite being the maguro nigiri. I do wish the rice to fish ratio was a bit higher, but I will happily come back despite that minor difference in opinion.“

“I had a very large order for a birthday celebration, thus a to-go order. One of the families had just returned from living in Japan for several years. The quality and creative selections were so good that they were even impressed. I ordered just a little more than I needed, but the sushi boats were much generous than expected, so we had very nice leftovers to enjoy. Everything was packed and carefully, and the platters were beautifully arranged; it almost felt bad to eat them and ruin the artwork. We will definitely be back!“

“Excellent service from Jordan, he was so kind and cheerful and made our experience fantastic! Salmon teriyaki was very fresh, lunch deals were good and the ramen was splendid as well. Will be back soon- glad there’s a new sushi place here, it’s what we needed!!“

“Excellent Sushi, fantastic sashimi!“

“Awesome food, great specials menu (check it out as you walk through the door!) very friendly staff. Great location overall!“

“BEST KATSU my husband and I have had in the DMV area so far 😊!! We’re a little bit of a Katsu connoisseur since it’s one of our favorite food and this place ATE DOWNNN!! Food came so fast and the gentleman that was serving us this Wednesday evening was so polite and tentative although it was a full house, will definitely be back :)“

“place is beautiful. i will def be back. loved it!!!!! takoyaki and ramen were delish!!!!!“

“I have eaten here dozens of times including my birthday this year. The food and service have consistently been incredible! My family loves the atmosphere and friendly staff, and even my kiddos ask to stop by for shrimp pops. Definitely recommend Ariake!“

“The sushi is amazing-as well as the appetizers. Service is perfect and the restaurant is gorgeous!! A must when visiting VA Beach!!“

“The best! They get their salmon fresh everyday and you can tell. Watch the sushi chefs - 6 guys behind the bar working constantly when they are busy. All of their food tastes so fresh and tasty. And their cocktails are delicious! Staff is generally super fast. I eat a lot of sushi and this is by far my favorite place!“

“The food is always amazing and the staff is SO nice. Now that they have online ordering it makes pick up super easy! The best sushi in northern Virginia hands down“

“I’ve found a new favorite Japanese restaurant! Real Japanese food made with actual Japanese ingredients, not the same as the stuff you find in mall food courts or at that [FAST]way chain joint. I ordered the Chicken and Steak Hibachi and the Chicken Yakisoba, and they were both delicious! Portions aren’t generous though, but healthy; you won’t feel overstuffed after eating.“

“Before trying this place, I must admit I was somewhat skeptical. However, upon trying their food, it greatly surpassed my expectations!
The restaurant is pleasant, clean, and simple, yet the flavors are tasteful! It has become my go-to place for Japanese rice bowls! Their tempura is truly exceptional!!“

“Great food. amazing service“

“I'd been craving takoyaki for days, and suddenly decided to drive over late at night. Surprisingly, even though it was close to closing time, they still served me. The waitress, Emily, recommended some dishes, and we ordered them right away. She wasn't just beautiful and kind-hearted, she was practically a buddy! Apparently, she's only there on Fridays and weekends. There were only her and one other guy working at the front; everyone else was chatting. Everything was great, and she even recommended two drinks – such good value! She was so friendly and welcoming. Overall, it was a worthwhile trip, and I'll definitely come back!“

“Sushi Prince has the best sushi in all of Fairfax. The fish and ingredients are always so fresh and delicious. It is the perfect spot for a date night.“

“authentic Japanese, fuffly pancakes are amazing“

“We love coming here, great ambiance and people. David the manager was very accommodating and our chef - Ryan - did an amazing job tonight. We love that they give noodles and fried rice! Also you MUST try the Tokyo Shrimp here it is FANTASTIC!! The filet mignon melts in your mouth love the salmon lobster and scallops too. Their ginger sauce, yum yum sauce, AND salad dressing are all on point. It’s hard to find a place that does everything as well as Samurai. We drive from Ashburn just to come here for hibachi.“

“Great food, good service…“

“This my first time being there and eating at a sushi buffet. Excellent food quality and Perfect customer service. Employees really care for their customers.“

“Loved the sushi and the atmosphere. The staff was so nice and the food was amazing. Will be back often!“

“This restaurant has been fabulous to myself and my boyfriend. We truly love them.“

“Tomo Izakaya Japanese Sushi and Grill offers a diverse menu of fresh sushi and other dishes, accompanied by attentive and efficient service. Portion sizes are generous, particularly for lunch specials, and complimentary side dishes such as kimchi and miso soup are appreciated. The extended operating hours offer a convenient dining option, especially when other establishments are closed. \n\nSome good dishes, and we recommend:\n1. The Agedashi tofu, with its delightful combination of textures and well-balanced sauce, is especially noteworthy. \n2. The hot plate of chicken and beef is flavorful and satisfying, complemented by well-prepared fried rice.“

“Sarku has been around for several years at this location. It’s convenient when shopping at this shopping center or if you’re out and about and are looking for a good meal.

Kudos! Something to mention is the food comes out temperature hot, like I like it! It makes all the difference.

I got the Shrimp/Chicken with white rice and spring rolls. Loved all of it. We’ve been here on several occasions and the food is always good. Thank you!

The staff was friendly and helpful when ordering. You order at the register and then your food is brought to the counter for you to pick it up. There isn’t a wait staff.

There are two entrances to Sarku. I didn’t get photos of the other entrance, but will take photos the next time.

They do play music from a radio station or satellite radio, but it wasn’t too loud for me and I liked the genre they played.“

“This spot is a family favorite of my husband and his family. I've been here about 10-15 times now and each time we leave happy, well fed and normally with a little snack/to go box with our leftovers. The fried rice is delicious, they cook everything in front of you (of course) and I'm always satisfied. I will say the prices have increased and the meat quality isn't amazing but it's always a good meal.“

“Bento House is one of our favorite fast casual neighborhood restaurants. Tasty food, easy parking, and great service every time we visit. Luis took great care of us tonight! We’ve frequented both the Reston and Chantilly locations for years.“

“All you can eat sushi at about $26 p/p. Add $6 for sashimi options. Good sushi, fresh and not a ton of rice to fill you up. As all-you-can-eat goes, this place is a keeper. Usually order a set amount from any sushi restaurant, so that's what I ordered... That's all I can eat! Check was about 15% less than a regular sushi place with comparable quality.“

“I always love the sushis over there & he loves the beef bento..“

“Amazing Sushi and Sashimi - Definitely a Must to Sooo... Fresh and Delicious. We will definitely be Back for more...“

“Outstanding sushi, salad, soup and tempura. Great and attentive service. Akira Sushi hits the ball out of the park.“

“UNBELIEVABLE FIND! Absolutely the best sushi! Fresh and delicious! The salmon melted in my mouth! The teriyaki plates were amazing. The staff is so nice and sweet. My wife and I had an incredible experience. We travel an hour each way just to eat here!“

“My long time, absolute favorite sushi restaurant in NOVA! Outstanding friendly staff, personal service, excellent and authentic food! I’ve been a loyal customer of this lovely place since they opened 19 years ago! Thank you for a terrific experience!!“

“Excellent dinner and drinks.“

“HotSpot in Chantilly is one of my go-to places for hot pot! The quality of the meats and ingredients is always fresh, and they offer a great variety of options, whether you’re craving a hearty soup or want to grill right at your table. The all-you-can-eat deal is definitely worth it, especially if you’re going with a group.“

“Very good! 4 stars!!! Was nice to get out of the house and dine-in once in a while. Introduced the kiddos to sushi & they really liked it!“

“Tried Quickway Japanese Hibachi in Glen Burnie for the 1st time tonight. Food was cheap but they got my order wrong. 😢 I wanted to try the shrimp hibachi but they gave both my husband and I chicken. We got it with the fried rice, noodles, and veggies with lots of yum yum sauce. Sides of chicken dumplings and chicken egg rolls. I still enjoyed mine. My husband said that his was bland and he was not a fan. Make sure you check the box if you order pickup from them like I did! It’s basically the food you would expect from a mall food court.🍗 🍜 🍚 🥟“

“Always an amazing experience. Love being greeted personally by the owners and staff, just shows they have great customer service and management.

Started with an appetizer, and had my usual hibachi steak entree, then one of the new staff members recommended the mochi for dessert which was uhmazing ✨ hand decorated of course..shout out to Laura.

Would def recommend 10/10“

“My husband and I ordered there this afternoon and the food was great! Prices are reasonable and they have a friendly, attentive staff. We ordered the shrimp bowl with white rice, noodles, and vegetables. Delicious!“

“Went for the first time with me and my mom. We loved it here the moment we walked in. We ordered the shrimp deluxe bento box and the steak deluxe bento box. It was so amazing and the steak practically melting in your mouth. The staff was really nice and this place was a nice place to eat at, definitely coming back in the future when we’re in the area“

“We are so appreciative of the service received from the staff at Sakura tonight. We had family coming into town this evening and the flight was delayed so we had to move our reservation close to closing time. The staff was still very accommodating even though it was late and the food was good. Bubba was our chef and was very personable and entertaining!“

“Dined at this spot several times in the past and ordered for delivery many times as well. We went back last night and was very happy with our order. Had several maki rolls and they were also very good. Good service, nice atmosphere! Definitely recommend. Can’t wait to go back .“

“A great Sushi restaurant. Must try ,! Delicious food, nicely decorated clean and very friendly service. Many different choices. Can not wait to go back.“

“Yummy… love their presentation and fresh food!“

“I’d been wanting to visit Sushi On for a while, but honestly, the 3.8 rating had kept me hesitant. Recently, I noticed their reviews improving to 4.2, so we finally decided to give it a try and I’m so glad we did. The overall experience was outstanding. The food was fresh and flavorful, and the setting was beautiful. As a Korean American who’s tried many all-you-can-eat sushi spots, this one truly stands out as the best so far. If you enjoy Korean-Japanese style cuisine, Sushi On is definitely worth checking out.“

“Very fresh sushi and reasonable price. Can’t find any other place like this in the area. Very satisfying! I recommend sashimi salad bowl with spicy sauce (serves with). It’s Korean style poke bowl! Also miso soup comes with it. If you need more, it’s only $0.50. So good!“

“Great place for takeout!

We love the Fairfax location much more, though. They have fountain drinks, more food options, and you can eat from a big bowl when dining in instead of a takeout container. They have better music, and there isn’t an alarm bell going off anytime an online order comes in.“

“More like 3.5 stars. The prices are great (by today’s standards) for the portion size. Wait times are incredibly short. And I was surprised by how much protein (shrimp) they gave me in my Bento box. But the food isn’t very flavorful and it’s quite greasy. Also, there weren’t very many vegetables included, and I didn’t get much sauce in my box. I’m not too upset about the taste because of the price, so I guess you get what you pay for.“

“Service and food are excellent, coming back again and again.“
