    Chicken Karaage
    Young K.

    My girl Vivian was super nice and a great waitress. Since it was our first time she took the time to explain everything in the menu, including their specials. I couldn't pick out my favorite meal because everything we ordered was SO GOOD. They also are not shy about portions. Chicken karrage aioli was so good and tender (lots of meat instead of batter). They gave us a lot of tempura and the omakase set was great to share between two people. I highly recommend ordering this for a single person too!! Since we were sharing the omakase set, my husband and I also got two specialty rolls (ovi and crazy tuna). We LOVED the OVI roll but the crazy tuna was delicious too. Definitely will be coming back here regularly!

    Ran into friends. Best area.

    Omg. If we don't talk about anything else. Let's just establish - THE FOOD IS AMAZING! Super fresh. Great portion prepared just as it should be. 18 piece sashimi platter amazing. Fatty tuna is from another world. So is everything else. Miso soup so delicious. Yellow tail spicy crab roll mouthwatering. Sake great. Atmosphere relaxed. Service fantastic. And so attentive. Prices reasonable. I am in love and cannot wait to return.

    A group of four converged on the site for a late lunch on a lazy week day and we were excited to dine. The weather was cool so we opted to eat outside in the patio area. The menu (with pictures) look very appetizing, and the meals are adequately depicted, BUT...there are some issues. Although it was not busy, the delay in getting our meal was a bit disturbing. The rice was cold and our colleague's meal was delayed to the point that by the time I finished my meal, his was still "being prepared." He cancelled his order as the delay was long. The entrée was tasty, but alas also cold. So the question is whether the delay is worth it? I don't think so...

    Ordered the Got Beef? Such roll and I must say it was really good! In my opinion it costed $27/28 and that was a lot compared to the average prices I'm used to. The sushi roll has a sweet flavor that I can't figure but really enhances the flavor! I did ask for eel sauce because it was a bit dry to my tastebuds. I wish they added eel and spicy mayo to it. However the reason I give it a 4 star was because I waited 40 minutes to get my roll. The server was very sorry and offered a free drink and mochi on the house which i appreciate. The atmosphere was towards of the chill rather than upscale and fancy. It was a nice treat after a long day of shopping

    I was staying in Crystal City and walked over a mile out here specifically because this restaurant participates in the Dining Rewards Program, so by eating here I could earn my regular credit card miles along with American Airlines miles. By the time I arrived I was hot and tired and really looking forward to some good sushi. What I got was really meh. My server was very nice, and I was quite impressed with her mastery of the menu. When I asked her about different rolls, she knew from memory which ones came with six pieces or eight, and explained the size of the rolls to me so I could decide between large six pieces and eight regular pieces. I felt she checked up on me often enough. What was disappointing to me -- and the reason I'm only giving three stars -- is the food. And I might not have reviewed this place at all, except it offers an omakase option on the menu, which invites you customers to trust the chef to offer a great culinary experience. Offering omakase suggests that they are confident in their sushi skills. After eating here, I would say that confidence is a bit misplaced. My main gripe is how moist (borderline soggy) the sushi rice was on both my rolls. Sushi rice should not be dry. It should be a bit sticky, clump together. This requires adequate moisture. But it should not be soggy, as mine was. It really took away from my enjoyment. Secondly, I don't think the flavors and the texture of the sushi here is that great. It's not horrible, but compared to other places, I would say it's below average. There are two ways to approach sushi. The traditional Japanese way, which focuses on fresh ingredients and simple prep, or the American way where the flavor is not in the fresh fish but in the sauces and extras included in the roll along with the fish. The sushi here is prepped American style but the flavor was lacking to me. I ordered a California roll and instead of using mixed crab in a mayo, they straight up just cut imitation crab stick. To me that really takes away from the flavor. Maybe I'm being too picky. I'm no expert on sushi. But I've eaten it often enough to know what I like. And I feel there is better sushi to be had elsewhere.

    I would give them a 3.75 stars not quite the 4-stars for me but still was pretty good. I went to this establishment on 3/17/25 and I ordered I believe spicy salmon, yellowtail with cream cheese, and another roll I can't quite remember but a tuna roll. It was during lunch time so the restaurant was empty and because I was by myself I decided to sit at the bar. The waiter was nice and ensure I had what I needed even though one roll was incorrect. The sushi was pretty fresh and the lunch prices was not that bad, but the parking situation just make sure you have some quarters to feed the meter. I would probably be back if they had a happy hour or during lunch again if I'm in the area.

    Super cute restaurant in pentagon city and staff was very attentive! We didn't need a reservation at all and the rolls were delicious

    Strictly a bar review but this was one of, if not the best, Kusshi sushi location I've been to. Clean small, well decorated and a cute bar! Service was amazing! The bartender even recommended a different style of my lychee drink for my second round so that I did not get an overly sweet taste in my mouth from the first lychee martini! She did a great job and was correct and guessing my preference! Would definitely return and have a bite there!

    Salmon teriyaki bento box & Chesapeake roll
    Nicole J.

    I came across the restaurant through Groupon and I'm so glad I did. I went on a Tuesday afternoon and was seated immediately. After reviewing the many options on the menu, I ordered the salmon teriyaki bento box plus the Chesapeake roll. Since it was lunch time, I didn't expect the bento box to be so huge. The vast sampler box was filled with so many delicious items. However, I was not a fan of the pork belly bao or the octopus ball. I really loved the Chesapeake roll, which included crab meat and yellowtail. Although I was by myself, the server constantly checked on me and asked if I needed anything. My meal exceeded my expectations and I can't wait to return again.

    Lava and Seared Spicy Salmon
    Sammy M.

    Kushi Sushi offers a delightful blend of authentic Japanese flavors with a modern twist, making it a standout option for sushi lovers. The ambiance is cozy and inviting, with minimalist décor that sets the perfect mood for a relaxing meal. The staff is attentive and knowledgeable, ensuring a smooth dining experience from start to finish. Here's a picture of my favorite rolls lava and seared spicy salmon While the prices are on the higher side, the quality and experience make it worthwhile.

    Cherry Blossom Roll
    Lily S.

    Yeah no. Decided to give this place another shot and this place just ain't it. Best case- fish is decent; worst case: one of the rolls I got was simply inedible. The salmon was like chewing rubber. The little sides of ginger looked a week old and the wasabi was in a plastic bag. Sorry Kusshi, but we have to break up.

The brisket was pretty good. Not the best I ever had. However, it had great texture and was thick cut. Dipped in their bbq sauce- it was even better. The grilled wings were great. Fat juicy drums! *I gave my aunt the flats, and she enjoyed them too. The brussels and esquites were great. Im not a big parmesan guy, but on the brussels it surprised me. The cornbread had a great texture as it was moist and held up nice; it wasn't dry and crumbly. I prefer my cornbread sweet though. Id pass on it next time. Upon request, the pickles were great, but the pickled onions not so much. They were more bitter and "onion'y" if you know what I mean (it tastes like they used white onions, the ones that go on hotdogs). Im used to them being a little sweet when I get them from bbq places and even Mediterranean spots. And lastly, I didn't like the blue cheese too much it was more bitter (im used to sweeter blue cheese similar to Ken's). Another thing I'd pass on in the future. Overall, the main courses and sides were good. I recommend and would go back again to get the same things and even try the white meat chicken.

We stumble in grab some shoyu, miso, seaweek salad, takoyaki, karaage, and tiramisu at the end. This place feels like a Japanese version of a Pho shop. Clean restaurant and clean bathrooms. Service was good, straigh forward, skip all the pleasantries. No Bars here but there is a connected space where you can get matcha drinks and boba but its matcha. Everything was matcha. If you're into that stuff, then that's a matcha for you. Ramens were okay. Broth was blowing my mind in flavor. I would say the depth was not too deep but this will work for a cold night. Karaage was okay. Takoyaki lacked impact in flavor also, missing the oomf! Seaweed salad was good but I'm not gonna rave about seaweed salad. We wrapped things up with the tiramisu cake. Oh boy, that was a surprise. It fell flat. The layers were overcooked and had a tough bite. I expect tiramisu to have a tender bite to it. We didn't finish that slice of cake. Well, we left full but half fulfilled. Was it worth it? Not really. If you need ramen and cup o noodles isn't cutting it, this is an option. Then again, there are options.
