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)

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

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

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.

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!

Elaine J. • November 17, 2017Tonkotsu spicy and the wonton ramen were both delicious. Also, get the crispy chickpeas as a snack.

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

Wil J. • August 16, 2014Great sushi! Friendly staff. Fancy, open atmosphere, but not stuffy. They have live music often.

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.

Amanda B. • February 5, 2018Great ramen for great prices! The shoyu is a very bold broth with a lot of flavor. The regular size ($13) will definitely leave you full, but they offer small bowls for $8 as well!

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

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

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.
