Spicy Roll Combo, Rock Shrimp Tempura, Miso Soup
Antoninette B.

Hands down my favorite place to get takeout sushi in DC! They are incredible. They have a Spicy Roll Combo that is my go to. It's 3 full sized rolls (Spicy Tuna, Salmon, and California) for $20. It's so much food and the perfect Spicy Rolls. I often re-order their Rock Shrimp Tempura, it's a lot of shrimp and tossed and a really incredible sweet/spicy sauce. I also love their Seaweed Salad (such a good portion size) and their Fried Rice. Really you can go wrong with anything, they never disappoint!

Tuna Lover Roll
Sophia S.

I love the tuna lovers roll, it's so good! The nigiri here is also really good for the price point. There's not much seating, so this restaurant is best for takeout. The employees are always really nice when I go pick up my order. I definitely recommend this place!

Thai Basil Chicken Lunch Special
Rohan N.

Isshin Asian Bistro is a good spot for a weekday lunch. If you're looking for something quick, affordable, and tasty then Isshin's range of Asian options will do the trick. I had the basil chicken lunch combo, which comes with the entree, rice, and a spring roll. I also ordered the hot and sour soup and was not disappointed by any of the offerings. If you come around when they open, all the food is fresh and hot. I did takeout on a Wednesday and was impressed by the decent portion sizes and quality of the food. This isn't going to be the best Thai (or Chinese, or Japanese) food you ever eat but it does the trick. The basil chicken had plenty of vegetables including onions, bell peppers, and mushrooms, and came with a sizable portion of rice as well. The egg roll was your standard vegetarian egg roll with a nice crunchy coating and a forgettable but decent cabbage filling. The soup here is always excellent and is very filling as well.

Spicy Roll Combo Seaweed Salad
Anna M.

Decided to get delivery yesterday from a new sushi place and ended up finding my new favorite place!! I got the spicy roll combo that comes with 3 rolls and you choose between miso soup or salad. Also got the seaweed salad for an appetizer. The 3 rolls were generously filled with the filling and the miso soup came still warm, I didn't even have to heat it up! Everything was a reasonable price and I will definitely be ordering from here again!

Spicy salmon roll (top), salmon rolls and tuna roll
An A.

Ordered sushi lunch combos for delivery. Excellent value and consistent food over the last 2 years. I'll continue to order delivery from here and hopefully get to pop in to sit down and enjoy a meal there!

Sushi & Sashimi Dinner
Alli R.

Ordered twice on doordash in the last few weeks and really enjoyed my food! The sushi combos are a great deal and are very filling. LOVE the rock shrimp with pineapple. Haven't been to the location but will be ordering again!

I came here for lunch with some colleagues and they happily accommodated our party of 5 though the inside was set up more for take out only. I'd say the whole space could probably only seat about 15 people. I ordered the Las Vegas Roll which was one of the Chef's specials, not a lunch special. It came with cooked salmon and white fish (red snapper) and some cream cheese. It was a good size! However I also wanted raw fish so I tried someone's spicy salmon from the lunch special and it was pretty good too. The proportion of fish to rice is very good, not too much rice! I was very hungry so I also got a lunch plate of sesame chicken and white rice. I was surprised it came with an egg roll which was perfect as I was really hungry. I ordered a Thai iced tea as well. I left very happily full. If your goal is a good value for a meal, look no where else. This might not be my first choice for either Chinese food or sushi, but they have both and at a good price! So if you're looking for both, this place is a win. I've liked restaurants that were in this unit years ago but it kept changing so I'm hoping Isshin is here to stay.

Shredded Chicken in Garlic Sauce
Anushka M.

Ever since moving I've been trying to find a good Chinese takeout place. Saw this when ordering delivery so decided to give it a try. I got the shredded chicken in garlic sauce and chicken lo mein. Delivery was easy and quick. The shredded chicken in garlic sauce was delicious! It does come with a side of white rice which wasn't mentioned when I was ordering online. It's not on the spicy side but still had a lot of flavor. The lo mein was ok, it seemed a little too salty and had a slightly weird aftertaste. Overall it's a good place to grab a quick dinner, or if you're craving Chinese.

Mango Tango
Anna O.

This place was so good! The service was great, staff were super attentive and friendly. This is such a cute restaurant! Highly recommend the mango tango roll.

Bug shell on my sushi

I found a bug shell laying on top of my spicy tuna roll. So gross. This is my go-to place and I cannot feel more betrayed

This meal was absolutely delicious! While in DC for a nearby convention, my friends and I were…read morecraving Thai food and came across this restaurant, and I'm so glad we did! The service was great, and the restaurant itself was really pretty and had such a nice atmosphere. We all got the mango frozen cocktails, and they were AMAZING; so refreshing, and honestly the perfect pairing with the food. Everyone in our group ordered something different, and everything we tried was so good. I got the Thai vermicelli, and it was absolutely delicious! I also got to try some of my friends' dishes, and everything was flavorful and really well done. I'm usually pretty nitpicky when it comes to coconut curry sauces, but it was so perfectly balanced and flavorful. It was easily some of the best Thai food I've had in the DMV (honestly!). No complaints whatsoever. I'll definitely be returning next time I'm in the area! :)

The khao soi had good flavor, and it came with rice. The chicken wings were for my son, he said they were the best wings he's ever had. The beef curry had good flavor, but the beef was a bit overcooked. Service was a little bit of a miss. When the waiter first came, he asked us for our food order. However, we wanted to order drinks first. I was able to order my cocktail, however, the waiter left before anyone else at my table could speak to order a beverage. Food came out very quickly. This is not the type of place where you would want to enjoy drinks and food over a period of time. However, if you are super hungry, your food will definitely get to you quickly. Restaurant was crowded, but not super loud. Overall, I would come back for the food, I just wish that I could have more time to enjoy my restaurant experience.

It was flavorful, came out hot, and filled with crushed peanuts just the way I like! I also had 2 lychee martinis and they were PERFECT! I wanted to give 5 stars but my experience wasn't all that great! I do realize that I came in 1hour before closing but if you know Thai places you know food doesn't take that long to cook so an hour is plenty of time! I intend to just get a couple drinks and go anyway but the bartender was rude and dismissive. It was interesting though because when a group of white men came in he seemed to be in a better mood but with me he refused to speak (even though I spoke to him TWICE). He kept staring at me in a way that felt like he had a problem with me, it was so uncomfortable. The host was so nice. He seemed embarrassed by the bartenders actions and he apologized and mentioned he may be upset about something that happened before I got there but that's not my problem and I shouldn't have to deal with it so I appreciate that the host made an effort to make the experience better! I don't know if I'll go back to dine in but I'll definitely get food to go!

Our group shared the Moo Yang and Crab Dumplings to start, and both were delicious. For our mains, two of us ordered the Pad Thai and the others had the Panang Curry. Everything we tried was flavorful and well prepared, and I can definitely see why this place gets praise for its Thai food. The only issue was the timing coming out of the kitchen. Our Panang Curries arrived several minutes apart, and we waited more than 15 minutes for the Pad Thais after the first entrees were served. We had to ask our waiter a few times about the rest of the food so we could actually eat together. It wasn't just our table either. I noticed the same thing happening around the restaurant, including a couple on a date where one person had her meal sitting in front of her for about 10 to 15 minutes before the other person's food arrived. Hopefully they can work out the timing because the food itself is worth coming for. Despite the issue, I would definitely give Rimtang another try.

Maybe after receiving all their accolades and increasing their pricing due to farm-raised proteins, expectations are that the quality stays at its best. Unfortunately, it wasn't just one thing that declined. I ordered for pick-up, which even take-away food from Siam used to be excellent. This time, though, the pad thai noodles were dry and stuck to each other in one big piece that I had to use a knife to separate. It was clearly left in the wok too long as the shrimps were blackened as well. Wish someone, whether chef or other, would notice the quality and decide to remake it. The shrimps were also very small--they used to use plump shrimp that were juicy to bite into. Now, the shrimp are the small ones you get from grocery stores. Paying an up-charge for tiny overcooked shrimp is quite the disappointment. When I went to pick up the food, the restaurant wasn't even busy, half occupied. I really hope it was a bad day as I really enjoyed dining here and supporting the 3-generation family.

That said, I was very happy with my this random result. Upon entering the restaurant, I thought the host/bartender/server was super nice and very friendly. For my dining pleasure, I went with the drunken noodles with chicken. While the meal was pretty tasty, I thought the portion size was a bit small compared to the same dish that I've had at other Thai places in the area. While the portion size was a bit smaller for this dish, I did think the prices in general were pretty reasonable compared to other spots in the area. Interestingly enough, I did place an order to go for my family, and the portions for those dishes were pretty standard. One thing that I have to recommend: the chicken wings with the chili sauce. I'll say that the sweet chili sauce was out of this world amazing. The Regent really should bottle this sauce and sell it, because I would totally use this sauce in my everyday cooking. Actually, I probably appreciated the sweet chili sauce more than the chicken wings. ;) Overall, I cannot really complain about my experience at The Regent. Perhaps, I'll return during another one of my random adventures in that part of town.
