“Quick, delicious, flavorful, hot! Veggie mix seasoning is fantastic, wonderful service, large portions, incredibly clean! Friendly staff, efficient check out, and great tea selection. The mango smoothie is very sweet! The caramel milk tea is amazing. New favorite place.“

“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!“

“I had such an incredible experience at Yume Sushi last night! Casey the bartender, and Matt the manager were incredible. Everything i ordered was absolutely phenomenal. The quality of the food was outstanding, and you could tell so much care went into every dish.

The entire staff was incredibly attentive, welcoming, and knowledgeable, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. Everyone went above and beyond to make us feel taken care of. I’m absolutely obsessed with this place and can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend Yume Sushi to anyone looking for amazing sushi and exceptional service!“

“Mariana was amazing! She had the best suggestions for us since it was our first time at Shabu Shabu. She was also super helpful with tips on how to get the best flavor out of our broth, veggies, fish, and meat. Fun atmosphere, great food, and even better service!“

“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.“

“Lovely sashimi! Authentic Japanese dishes.“

“I recently visited this Japanese restaurant and had an absolutely amazing dining experience. The sushi was incredibly fresh, beautifully presented, and full of authentic flavor. I also tried the ramen and tempura, and both dishes were prepared perfectly with high-quality ingredients. The atmosphere was calm, elegant, and welcoming, making it a perfect place to relax and enjoy a meal. The staff members were attentive, polite, and provided excellent customer service throughout the visit.“

“Had a Great time celebrating a friend’s birthday! Food is amazing, sushi is fresh! Good atmosphere! Owners are Super cool and really knows how to make their guests feel special. Kudos to the entire staff for the Great service. Highly recommend!“

“My bf and I loved this spot, it was so cute and intimate. I will say it's much lighter than we were expecting about half of the dishes had wagyu and the other half were lighter bites. I thought it was a great balance and was satisfied.

The chef Jason was really the standout for us, he handles all the dessert in house and it was incredible. We'll come back just to see Jason.“

“just want to tell you...the best in DMV 5☆“

“Incredible dinner experience. Chawanmushi (egg custard) is to die for. Each dish was prepared with such care. I felt like I was back in Japan. A wonderful service - chef Urara is lovely. A great wine selection. I can’t wait to go back.“

“Umami 😌🤌🏻🤏🏻 every single dishes is great! The sushi was spot on!! 🍣🍜🍱 Plus first time trying “A5 Wagyu” num num num exceptional service from Thai employees!! I’m so proud of them! He asked me is it my first time here? So Yes! Then he started recommending all of those signature dishes which I was gonna ask him since the first place but he did a very good job beginning with that! Plus he was genuinely kindhearted and care for his guests. The chef(I guess)also delivered food by himself with A5 Wagyu and other stuffs for you! The music also made it a lot more enjoyable! Impressive! Gotta go back!!“

“I'm so sad we found out about this place just as we were leaving DC. The seared salmon belly had that delicious char flavor and melted in my mouth. The salmon sashimi with wasabi olive oil was a punch of wasabi in the best way, and also melted like butter. All the nigiri is divine with how fresh and thick the cuts are, and the wasabi is pure. The rolls are uniquely flavorful -- we loved the salmon skin and white tuna especially. I would skip the tempura roll as the texture was too soft for my liking.“

“Delicious spicy beef noodle soup“

“Very tasty! Nice new hole in wall.“

“Discovered this place by accident while on the Crescent trail, and oh my what a happy coincidence. This is by far (!) the best sushi that I’ve had so far in DC: the rice is well cooked and seasoned, it sticks well to the sushi but at the same time is spread very thinly (a hallmark of a good place), and the rolls are so full of filling that they look like they’re bursting. The fish is fresh and flavourful. The price is more than reasonable (around 12 to 15 dollars for a dish). The owner/cook is obviously extremely competent and very fast in preparing your order. Fantastic place, I have to come back here as soon as I can.“

“excellent ramen and customer service. I am beyond impressed!!! Great job!!!!“

“This place is awesome. Never disappointed when we go there. Their food is delicious.“

“We had an absolutely outstanding experience! Our very kind server Randy was attentive, knowledgeable and gave great reccomendations on dishes to eat & cocktails. Food was very flavorful! Atmosphere lovely! Highly reccomend. Really a great kick-off to our families weekend away 🎄“

“Great sushi place to try!“

“Amazing Memorial Day lunch, from the cocktail to the clams miso soup, high quality sashimi imported from Japan, this restaurant offer a Japanese twist with a western touch!
One of best Japanese restaurant in the DMV
Chef Chemel“

“I have overlooked Sushi N You for years eventhough it is right under my nose. Don't make the same mistake I did! This is an amazing gem in the neighborhood. The sushi was EXCELLENT. The place is spotless, cozy, and welcoming. The staff was so nice, attentive, and accommodating. We will now be regular customers for both carry-out and dine-in.“

“Been here twice and the food was fantastic each time!“

“This is our second time here. This time, we came for lunch. Sashimi/sushi fish quality is exceptional. Our server, Jana, was super friendly and efficient. It’s a great price deal without compromising food quality. We’ll definitely be back!“

“tengo 15 años de venir aqui sin dudarlo se lo recomiendo la mejor comida“

“Had a perfect time with my wife. Had the nigiri and hand roll omakase and loved it. Super fresh sushi and excellent preparation. Better quality and taste, and a way better value than other top spots like nakazawa and sushi taro. Will be back and highly recommend if you are really into great sushi“

“The whole menu here is excellent. Both the sushi and the sake are thoughtfully and chosen and prepared. The attention to detail both in the menu and the decor shows the care and dedication they put into the food. I highly recommend Shinwa to anyone who appreciates exceptional sushi.“

“Great food and fantastic staff“

“First time trying Eggs and Suhsi. I had to get my car fixed and it was right across the street. I ordered miso ramen with pork chashu and salmon rolls. It was really good, good portions and reasonable price! I’m glad I tried it out and would be interested in coming back to try more on the menu. The staff was also very kind and attentive. I’m glad I tried it out.“

“It took me years to find a good ramen and sushi place, this place is the best! The owner is so sweet and welcoming, can’t find customer service like what she give anymore. My husband and I make it a point to god every month or two, you always get quality. As being spoiled by NY and NJ for several years we’re picky but this is our spot.“

“The food here excellent and always presented well. The owner and his staff are always polite and I enjoy every visit, and if it's a quiet enough time, the owner will come sit and talk to you so you have someone to enjoy your meal with.“

“Best sushi restaurant me and my family have ever been to. Our server, Jay made our experience even better with his service that went above expectations. They also gave complimentary matcha ice cream for our birthdays that was insanely good.“

“Wonderful sushi especially the chirashi. The tempura is also delicious always crisp and not greasy.“

“Stopped by with my partner to try the pork katsu, and it did not disappoint! The katsu combo was satiating and tasty. When I was leaving I had forgotten my takeaway, and the person who served us ran it out to us. I'm looking forward to my next visit.“

“Very solid food and all you can eat at a good price. We'll be coming back for sure.“

“Don't let the exterior of the building fool you. Closed on Sundays. Visited on a Monday at 3pm and the door was locked, but opened very fast (they were on lunch break!). Let me tell you, the couple that own and operate this restaurant are the kindest, most amazing people. The husband took out order and served us while his wife prepared the sushi. Oh, and the SUSHI!!! Expectations exceeded, by far! Ordered the Chicken Teriyaki Box, A roll of Spicy Salmon Sushi and a roll of Shrimp Tempura Sushi (shared by 2 people). The Teriyaki Box was good but the Sushi Rolls were outstanding!!! Whole meal with 2 non alcoholic drinks came to about $65 without tip, which was WELL worth it! I will be returning, most definitely!!!“

“We had the most wonderful dinner tonight celebrating a birthday. Quan Tran was amazing! The food was so good and he was so fun!“

“Outstanding dinning experience! We’ve been to and have had Korean BBQ, but NOTHING compares to this! The quality of food, knowledgeable staff, creative cocktails and atmosphere are what make this restaurant well worth the visit. EVERYTHING was OUTSTANDING! I’ve never enjoyed a restaurant more that Gyu-shige! AAA+ We will be back!“

“A favorite neighborhood spot“

“I love visiting new places, especially when traveling.

This gem in Washington was so good! The atmosphere when you get inside the restaurant can’t be on the photo.

Staff was kind and great! Drinks and food were delicious. Most creative interpretation of banitsa I ever tried - loved it!

Definitely recommended!“

“Fresh and interesting sushi items. Extensive menu. Good service. I like what I’m eating :)“

“Went last night for the soft opening and was very impressed from start to finish. The bartender, Chi, was personable and very attentive and we enjoyed various foods that were all top notch and some nice wine. Other staff who are coming and going were also very nice and you would never have known it was their first night. I worked in various aspects of the restaurant business for 15 years and have been to various soft openings, and these guys did a fantastic job. The owner Jay came by and chatted with us to make sure everything was going well and you can tell he really cares about everything. Pak Soii is a very welcome addition to Del Ray Alexandria and I can't wait to go back.“

“It was interesting place. Contactless order and dine in on 2nd floor. For lunch, that's actually convenient. I tried mini chirashi. It was good but the sashimi was too chopped. I felt like I was eating leftover from dinner. I wish it was served in a bowl. Being served in a disaposable mini plate made the eating experience uncomfortable and inconvenient.“

“Very Nice atmosphere customer service was great and the food was superb“

“Can’t recommend this place enough!! It’s definitely our favorite sushi spot in town. A great quality for a great price and the nigiri pieces are massive. We usually get the sushi deluxe sampler with a little bit of everything. 1000% check this out if you’re a sushi fiend like myself. (Promise I’m not a bot lol)“

“HOLY VALUE
I rarely rate restaurants anymore on here but I wanted to sing my praises
I’ve lived in nyc and eaten lots of good expensive sushi there, and I just came back from Japan but this place actually stands out to me out of all the places I’ve eaten
I’m coming during the lunch weekday special it was ~25$ w tax the cuts of fish are SO thick and it has a good mix of fish
The fish is quite good quality too“

“Great food and excellent service.“
