Suggestions for Japanese Restaurant near Mount Vernon Square, Washington

Gwynn T. • June 3, 2023Japanese food court with three restaurants, so make reservations at Dear Sushi. It’s some of the best sushi in town and the omakase experience is surprisingly affordable.

ISC C. • July 22, 2018HIYASHI CHUKA (Spicy Miso dressing, Chashu, ramen, egg, corn, cucumber, wakame, tomatoes, bean sprouts, arugula, carrots, ginger, shredded nori)

Rachel L. • March 13, 2020Serving Japanese style pizza and pasta (wafu) this is a must try!

Matthew D. • August 21, 2021Get the Omakase, and the pairing is worth it.

Isa L. • August 12, 2023Was there once and had mediocre sushi. Stopped by today wearing a v neck t-shirt & black jeans. Was told I could not eat at the bar because they “have a dress code.” Never going back there again.

Kaz K. • July 15, 2017Jo chirashi is $28 for lunch. Great, authentic sushi restaurant with a clean, understated look.

Elaine J. • February 27, 2017The Chaplin A.S.S. and Spicy Miso are delicious. One of the best ramen spots in DC

Akash J. • January 15, 2013Cash only, but worth it if you're looking for the best "chicken over rice" dish in the food court. Made to order and tasty.

Alex L. • August 20, 2021You’re most likely here for sushi & it’s all fantastic! Hygienic covers are placed over the food on the conveyer belt. Ramen for $7.50 per bowl is also worth a try! Great for eating with a group!

Mrfantastic8000 • April 8, 2022I wasn’t sure about the ramen craze! Since then I’ve been here 3 times! Love the ramen! I get the spicy pork based ramen and chicken ramen. The Jinya Tongatsu Black that is my favorite! Get it!

Rob Z. • March 9, 2019Best sushi I’ve had in DC 🏆

Nash P. • December 15, 2018Omakase. This sister restaurant to Daisuke Nakazawa’s (a former apprentice of Jiro) original in NYC serves up some of the best sushi you can find in DC. Sit at the sushi bar and enjoy the experience.

Rob B. • March 14, 2013Excellent menu for happy hour with reduced price sushi items. Sushi items are outstanding and regular menu is worth checking out. Downside: limited to no drink specials

Terry P. • October 5, 2010Can't go wrong with ordering any of their bento boxes - cheap and yummy!

Mimi N. • September 8, 2017Delicious ramen and small Japanese plates. Highly recommend checking out their happy hour deals 5-8pm

Jason W. • May 19, 2010Try the KalBi Roll. Outstanding!

Mimi N. • January 10, 2017Delicious take on Chinese-style ramen and good soup dumplings! Definitely a place worth coming back to try the different flavors and a good deal for the Chinatown area.
