Also cool how it's attached to like an anime store, so you can do some eye shopping while waiting around. As for food, I think the dessert was ok. The kakigori was honestly a bit flavorless. I think honestly some condensed milk or just more sweetness/syrup can make this better. Just tastes like it's missing something. And the pancakes are decent. Honestly, I thought the mochi ice cream was the best thing there in my opinion. Also, the food took SO long to come out. Waited at least 20 minutes but it's calm. Have yet to try the food here but will probably be back because my friends like the vibe of the interior. Will update you once I do!

Kema started off as a fast casual sushi restaurant, but has become more of a standard sit-down…read moresushi restaurant and seems to have lost a bit of its identity. We frequent Kema quite often (since it opened) and have noticed, in the past year, that there has been a high turnover in their staff, which has led to less quality service (not bad now, but it used to be great). The food and prices have remained relatively constant since first opening, which some may seem as a positive, but for those that go frequently, mixing it up would benefit. Maybe come up with some new rolls or offer new nigiri options. Every time you get a nigiri bento or a moriawase, you get the exact same nigiri. Prices have always been high for a fast casual restaurant, even if it's sushi, but that's not surprising considering the area. I do hope that Kema does recommit to its more fast casual dining experience.

I recently came here on a Sunday evening with my family to celebrate Mother's Day. We had a large…read moreparty of 6 adults and 4 children so we called and made reservations ahead of time. We were seated immediately upon arrival. The restaurant is located in the main shop area of Rockville Town Square. There is plenty of parking available with nearby garages and street parking. We decided to do the AYCE Classic Set, there is a 90 minute limit and you are handed an iPad to order your selections. There is a limit of items that you can add... if I recall it was 10-15ish? Then once you submit an order you have a 5 minute limit before you can order your next batch of items. We ordered so many items, some of our favorites outside of the BBQ meats were: - Spicy Tuna Tartare - Shishito Peppers - Garlic Cucumber - Kuro Squid Noodle The meats were all high quality with generous portions. The time limit and wait times between orders were reasonable, we all left super full with time to spare. My two toddlers ate for free, I do not recall the cutoff age, but they are 1 and 3 if that gives some perspective. The food was excellent and the service matched. Our server David was very attentive, checking on us multiple times to clear plates and see if we needed anything. The table space has limited space due to the grill in the middle, but he was on top of making sure we were comfortable and taken care of. I really appreciated the extra time he took with actual plate placement, nothing hot close to the toddlers and even calling out when placing a hot item down to make sure hands and arms were clear. Delicious food, great service and perfect for families or large groups, I will definitely be coming back in the future :)

It was really popular that evening, so the three of got squished at the table meant for two, but we didn't mind. The menu is pretty extensive, offering ramen, udon, tonkatsu, rice bowls, grilled fish sets, and more. We ordered pretty quickly, but with how busy it was, it took a bit for the food to come out CHILEAN SEA BASS - 37 As I scanned through, my eyes immediately fell on the miso sea bass. Despite the price point, I knew I had to go for it because sea bass is hard to find around here. This set came with rice, house salad, miso soup, and cold tofu. The sides were pretty standard -- no compliments, but no complaints either. On the other hand, the sea bass was wonderful. Super creamy and soft, with a strong miso sweetness that packed so much umami upon each bite. I would definitely splurge on this set just for the sea bass. My friend got the ramen and didn't love it, so I'll probably avoid that during future visits. The katsu curry that the table next to us ordered looked and smelled amazing. Overall, food was delicious and homey. I'd definitely recommend!

Cutest hole in the wall!!…read more Authentic Japanese food on Rockville Pike. Never knew what I was missing... their sushi seriously tastes like it was made with love. Absolutely floored by the fatty tuna sushi roll. It is on the pricier side, but honestly, I don't think I even minded. We got the katsu and sashimi combo plus some rolls on the side. The katsu was delicious, and the sashimi was super fresh. The combo also came with the cutest little side dishes, really adorable presentation overall. The staff was also incredibly attentive about my friend's allergies (dairy and nuts). They kept checking in with us and even showed us the sauce ingredients to make sure everything was safe. One of the staff members called my friend "kawaii" after hearing her long list of allergies lol, and honestly, that made my day.

Because you know, they are serving raw fish and those fish are caught by fishermen. If you love sushi, I'm fairly certain you cannot go wrong at Tachibana McLean. It's hard to believe the years I spent here might have been a part of the glory days at Tachibana. When they lost their Itamae and were weathered by covid lockdowns, I think the pace of service changed. But the quality of food never has and I've enjoyed every meal here before and since. This is a classic sushi restaurant so you will not get any sort of innovative fusion rolls here. What you will get is a strict adherence to old school tradition and a focus on quality that is worth a visit. It's hard to say favorite dishes because there are so many delicious choices here. If you are sitting at the main sushi bar, you first may enjoy a free gift of whatever the Ittamae is featuring. If you like that fish, then order more of it. For sushi and sashimi, get what you enjoy here because it's fresh and lovely. Do not miss the Philadelphia rolls here because they are extra creamy and the scallions make them a real delight. I also love the New York roll and the spicy tuna and spicy salmon rolls. Back in the day, my go-to was a spicy, crunchy salmon roll. This was always a special request but they humored me since I was a regular. I was also forever asking for a very thin slice of jalapeño in my tuna roll but you could only get that in the less-friendly and ambient sushi cafe down the street. Years later, times have changed and you can now order jalapeños, as well as tempura crumbs and spicy mayo on any roll. They have so many vegetarian rolls here, as well, so that is a whole experience if choose. You can order Japanese pickles, fermented soybean and scallion rolls, a plum and shiso roll, a gourd roll, a cucumber roll and an avocado roll. I so enjoy a big plate of veggie and shrimp tempura here. The tempura batter is not thick and just right. I also have very much liked the katsu's here: either crispy Berkshire pork loin or crispy chicken. It's an old familiar taste which you should not miss out on. The bento dinner boxes are also awesome. I usually get salmon, beef negimake, shrimp and veggie tempura, shumai dumplings and salmon sashimi. A delightful treat. The buckwheat noodles and udon soups are a bit plain and while they are classically good, i more enjoy the sushi. As for the cold sake, I recommend: the Shochikubai Nigori, the Junmai Ginjo and the cloudy pearl junmai if it's on hand. They also have Choya plum wine and a beer and wine list. You will love the green tea presentation in the gorgeous pottery, as well as that they are diligent on tea refills. Their desserts are nice but make sure you at least taste green tea ice cream once. You can get it here! It's not easy to find this at restaurants, even sushi restaurants, recently.

The tempura green bean sushi was even better than before, if that is possible. Then we ventured beyond our usual repertoire and ordered the duck. This was satisfying but we probably won't order it again. This time I noticed a detail that, in the rush of good flavors, had eluded me on our previous visit: the extraordinary soy sauce provided for dipping. Its smooth and rounded taste is far far superior to the acrid soy sauce usually provided in restaurants, and different from any supermarket brand I have tried. I inquired and learned that the restaurant has their own recipe for enhancing soy sauce by simmering it with fish broth (dashi). A unique touch that takes sushi to the next level.
