Great sushi and relatively good prices. Definitely recommend. Atmosphere is just okay but the service was great.
The sushi here was absolutely amazing, I went around night and ordered chefs island and everything was prepared so well and tasted so fresh and well, Scarlett was our server and she did such an amazing job even with the rush, the interior was so clean and decorated with so much details and I can definitely tell they put a lot of effort into the service, environment, and especially the food and its quality, I will definitely be coming back soon.
Charming little hole in the wall sushi restaurant. Excellent food, and our waitress was on top of everything.
Food was good but service was really slow and inattentive.
This little place is such a hidden gem! We were so thankful for all the delicious recommendations from our server. We started with the salmon appetizer with the crispy nori and it had such great flavor and texture. Shishito peppers with onions was probably the best I’ve had and had a ton of flavor. Now moving on to the sushi,sashimi, and rolls. Presentation of all the dishes were simply impeccable and so beautiful to look at. They were also all melt in your mouth delicious! Can’t wait to go back and try more on their menu!
We absolutely LOVE the sushi, service and staff at Cafe Ile. It’s incredibly fresh and everything we’ve had was spectacular- they really set the bar high. Our team comes at least once a week and they cater ALL our events.
DO NOT GO HERE! Let’s start with environment/atmosphere, the music played was an Orchestral music with a loud lasy screaming. This causes an uncomfortable ambiance during our experience. The background music/ noise was too loud that made us uncomfortable . Next,
SERVICE: If you are a brown Asian or not Korean or light skinned, DO NOT EVEN ATTEMPT. It is May of 2025, And Ofc! You will experience discrimination especially in the DMV area where high number of light skinned Asian are present. I repeat lighter skinned asian. I am a brown, Pacific Islander and I was treated poorly here. The server was Korean, she stepped on my foot and didn’t say sorry. It took 1 hour before she asked for our orders and the dining is not even that busy. She prioritized cleaning the table right next to us and we have not even done our order yet. The cafe was not busy at the moment. She did not even checked us if we need water, as we suffer from the spice of the wasabi. It took way looong before we got our checks to pay. This was May 8th,2025 5:30-6:30pm. Did not check us if we need anything or if any food improvements can be made. PLEASE TRAIN YOUR SERVERS TO TREAT PEOPLE EQUALLY REGARDLESS OF PHYSICAL APPEARANCE OR COLOR. Please expand your awareness.
I would like to give Cudos to the Sushi chef for greeting us before we leave.
FOOD: Quality and ingredients are good but please toned down and balanced the umami and flavor. Sometimes too much flavor can distract the taste palate with other sushis leaving the customer too full that may not give appreciation to other sushis leaving flavors. Food is great but please balance next time. ALSO,
PARKING IS HARD, only 3 slots free dor the cafe, you have to pay $6 for parking, They ahould atleast Validate the parking. I hope this review helps other customers like me. I don’t do reviews but I want to raise awareness in this kind of issues. I HOPE THAT CAFE ILE WILL DO SOMETHING TO IMPROVE ABOUT THIS. THERE ARE PLENTY OF BETTER sushi places around, DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS.
Seven of us had work day lunch at this new sushi place close by. The fish was fresh, the sushi taste nice and presentation is pretty. I am not a big sushi fan but can’t find anything to complain.
The waiter was attentive and very nice. I will definitely go back when I feel like sushi
Very bad treatment of those who enter the restaurant for delivery.
All things considered, the best sushi place I've ever been to.

Best sushi that I’ve had in years!!! Sashimi had a fresh taste and wonderful mouth feel. The scallop carpaccio along with that incredible ponzu and yuzu sauce made my wife swoon. Our Sauvignon blanc was perfect, the ambiance was minimalist and soothing along with the piano music ambiance and the customer service was 5 stars. Love this place!
This restaurant is amazing. So cozy, incredible service, delicious accoutrements with your meal, and the sashimi is insane. We loved it so much.
i rarely write reviews, unless they left an impression me. and after two weeks, i am reminded that i still haven’t left one. this place is AWESOME. the seafood is fresh and you could tell there was great attention to the detail with presentation. the staff go beyond their call of duty to make it a great experience. the sashimi and sushi is on-level with NYC’s offerings. please try it!
RUN don't walk to this place if you like quality sushi!!! The best sushi I've had so far, husband agrees too and he's very picky with sushi... The fish was so fresh tasting and the menu has so many combo options that lets you sample alot of items. I usually prefer sashimi or nigiri over maki and special rolls and theirs did not disappoint. 100% worth the price. The Cafe is very small with limited seating, there was only one waitress when we were there but the service was great!! loved our first time there and can't wait to go back.
Absolutely love this little Cafe. Sushi/sashimi was fresh, soft, and delectable. I've never had baby peach before, but that was delicious!
Presentation was on point. Friendly staff!
Bonus: I got to speak a little Japanese with them!
I would definitely recommend!
