This place absolutely delivered. Every bite was fresh, thoughtfully crafted, and packed with flavor. We went all in with the Kusshi Boat, and wow a feast for both the eyes and the palate. The rolls were perfectly balanced: the Firecracker Roll had just the right kick, the Volcano Roll was rich and indulgent, and the Shrimp Tempura Roll was crispy without being greasy. The Rainbow Roll was vibrant and fresh, while the Spicy Tuna hit that clean, spicy sweet spot. The sashimi and nigiri was also high quality fresh fish. Service was just as impressive, attentive, warm, and seamless without being overbearing. Everything arrived beautifully plated and perfectly timed. If you love sushi that's fresh, generous, and made with intention, this spot deserves a top spot on your list. We're already planning our next visit. read more

Went around 9:30p and service was terrible. Took a while before someone took our order with only a third of the restaurant full. The Hamachi Crudo was ok but the Agedashi Tofu sauce was so sweet, it tasted like molasses. The rest of the Sushi Rolls were Meh. The Pork Katsu Curry came in a large portion but lacked taste. Waiter came multiple times but never bother to refill my empty water bottle. I don't think I should have to ask for water refill. Not even sure if this place has free Ocha like any good Japanese restaurants. I heard it is usually packed. Kusshi Sushi is just not for me. Came, try, and done.... read more

I was glad to see that a Japanese restaurant had recently come to Reston Town Center. Apart from a ramen place, It had been years without one. When Kusshi opened, we gave it some time to settle in. We were here on a Sunday for an early dinner. Even though we arrived early (around 4 p.m.), a few tables were already occupied. As we entered the place, a party of four was right behind us. So it seems popular. After looking at what was available (the menu is a la carte), we placed our orders. We started with our drink orders. I ordered a hot cup of genmaicha, only to be told they were all out--bad news on such a cold day. The server offered to bring me a hot cup of barley water, which I declined and stuck with tap water. My husband ordered a Kirin Light beer. For an appetizer, we chose shishito peppers, and we both ordered miso soup. The sizable portion of peppers was well-grilled and flavored. Shishitos are tricky. For the most part, they are mild peppers. However, like Anaheim peppers, sometimes a hot pepper shows up. The first two I ate, oh...they were hot. The rest were mild. We ordered miso soup. It arrived steaming hot. It was excellent. It was a larger serving than what most Japanese restaurants provide. It had a generous amount of tofu and green onions. It was almost a meal in itself. For my main course, I chose a "rainbow roll" which consists of: "California roll with tuna, salmon, and yellowtail". It was a very generous-sized roll, well assembled. The wasabi and ginger portion was quite adequate. A bottle of low-sodium soy sauce is placed on the table. I really enjoyed this roll. My husband ordered the "Teriyaki dinner" which consists of "grilled protein, stir-fried seasonal vegetables served with steamed rice and teriyaki sauce. The choice of proteins are chicken, salmon, or shrimp. He chose chicken. It was quite a sizable portion, so we took some home to have for lunch the next day. At one point during the meal, our server brought us each a cup of hot barley water (to make up for not having hot tea). Since barley doesn't agree with me, I passed on it. Overall, the service was very friendly and efficient. The vibe definitely says "Japanese restaurant" with the decor and the requisite sushi bar. One drawback is the sound level. And, yes, we will go again. read more

I took my cousin here to have a birthday cocktail and I was pleasantly surprised. My waitress Michelle was very knowledgeable and very sweet. I love the dimly lit ambiance of the restaurant and the food was amazing. I especially loved my cocktail and the vast variety of sushi rolls. The wings are also top-tier. I will definitely be back. read more

Rating 3.5 overall. This is based on a delivery review and taking advantage of some BOGO deals. Overall the food was fine, but no better than getting sushi from Wegmans or Whole Foods IMO. read more

We came for a girls lunch and left super full and happy! This restaurant is a great addition to RTC and is located adjacent to the running store. The ambiance is bright and modern and service was exceptional. There were great lunch specials and I ordered the two rolls for $14, getting the spicy tuna and tuna with avocado. My friend said her salmon bento was delish and it looked perfect! The miso soup was flavorful and a nice warm touch on a cold winter day. The menu had a lot of specialty rolls I can't wait to try on another trip. I recommend giving this a try! read more

I loved their HH deals here! Super worth it! The Seared Fatty Salmon was definitely my favorite, it seriously just melts in your mouth as soon as you eat it. I also enjoyed the Chicken Karaage, it was very crispy on the outside. The Baltimore Roll was great! It had a decent amount of crab in each piece, though I do wish we had more pieces in general. I'd love to come back and try their cocktails one day! The service was good, and our waiter checked up on us several times. The restaurant is also nice inside and fairly spacious. Great spot for HH in Reston! read more

New Japanese spot in the town center! The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming from the moment we walked in. We tried several dishes: * Chicken Karaage - 8/10: Crispy and flavorful. * Wagyu Fried Rice - 6/10: The meat was a bit tough and lacked the fatty richness you'd expect; the rice itself could use more flavor. * Kusshi Oysters - 10/10: Super fresh and straight from Japan--definitely a highlight. * Salmon Roll - 6/10: Decent but pretty plain. * Ramen - 8/10: The broth was delicious, though the noodles absorbed it quickly after a few minutes. Overall, a welcoming spot with some standout items and a few dishes that could use a little improvement. read more

Kusshi is amazing! I came here for happy hour last week with a friend who lives nearby. It was amazing! We tried the shumai, the dumplings, shishito peppers, and an embarrassing amount of rolls, including the soft shell crab roll which is one of my favorites. Our sever was fantastic! I wish I had his name, but he was sweet, helpful and focused. It's not a huge place, but it is very nicely decorated and very comfortable. I'm so jealous that I can't just pop in once or twice a week!. But if you can, you definitely should! read more

Very popular and heavily trafficked place so obviously quality has to give. Sequence of food coming in was off putting-they brought the hot sushi before the dozen chilled shucked oysters appetizers. Sashimi looks ok but i probably will not be coming back anytime soon. Something or some are missed for sure... Not bad for a casual or quick lunch spot. read more

Congrats Kusshi on expanding another location in VA! What a beautiful space and vibes! As always, their sushi does not disappoint! My favorite is the seared fatty tuna. Droools!

So happy Kusshi is now at RTC! The services great and everyone's very friendly. No one's rushing and will often stop to chat a bit. The space isn't huge but it's not cramped in either. Comfortable but do make a reservation during peak hours and weekends. Sushi is always fresh and innovative. I can't really pick a favorite since I like everything here! read more

Food is awesome love the vibe drinks are 5/5 this was my 4th time visiting this place honestly I would've gave this place 5 stars but the service is not the greatest good server just didn't really attend to us we got there had to get up for napkins and thought I would get a plate atleast for our meal since we shared a entree.. so I ate over a napkin I would've asked for a plate but the server didn't come to our table. Table next to us service looked great multiple servers were checking in with them. It's never busy when we go so it was kind of frustrating. We definitely will go back we love the food and drinks but maybe we will just sit at the bar out of the 4 times we've been there the service has been very subpar. We spent a lot of time waiting for our server tonight and we would've been paid and at home maybe an hour earlier if we weren't just sitting there waiting while she stood at the bar. read more

Came here recently for the soft opening. The cocktails and food were amazing. My friends and I ordered everything from the A5 nigiri, seared salmon belly, spicy miso ramen, sashimi boat, chirashi and the nigiri sampler. The fish was really fresh. The A5 a salmon belly are must orders. Loved the new decor and aesthetics. It's very bright, warm and inviting. Service here was great as always. I'll definitely be back to try some of their speciality cocktails and rolls. read more

Wow this place is excellent! Huge and really nice inside. It was so nice and quiet on a Sunday and service was great. The sushi was such high quality. We tried the boat for 2 which was actually way too much for 2 people I couldn't try it all! The firecracker roll was delicious with the crab salad on top and was spicy. The ovi roll was good too but the firecracker roll had more flavor. I tried some of the nigiri, the tuna was excellent as well as the special salmon that was served. We also tried the seared salmon (sake) crudo. So good with the truffle oil! I will be back. I also like the salmon sashimi. I didn't get to try the rest of the sashimi but it looked great. I will be back! read more

I went for happy hour during the week and had a great time! The host/floor manager greeted me warmly and walked me to my table. He took time to go over the menu with me and point out some of the house favorites and specials. My server was also very friendly and gave me great service. I ordered the spicy edamame, a few sushi rolls and some warm sake. Everything was delicious and seemed very fresh! It was also very affordable. The dining room was brightly lit, clean and spacious. I will definitely be going back soon! read more

There is no shortage of sushi options in the Reston area but somehow Kusshi found a way to stand out! From the friendly atmosphere, beautiful decor, and delicious sushi, you can't go wrong hitting up Kusshi for dinner. We weren't sure what to get so we decided to try a little bit of everything. The sushi boat was packed with freshly prepared sashimi and nigiri. The chicken wings were surprisingly very tasty and tender. The cocktails are also worth checking out. Be warmed, you probably won't be able to just have one. read more

While we had a great first experience at Kusshi in RTC, subsequent visits for takeout have consistently disappointed. The same rolls we enjoyed during our in person visit now uniformly possess mushy, bland, and overly compacted rice. The fish quality has also taken a nosedive, with both the freshness and cuts of the fish much poorer than we initially experienced and relative to other local competitors. I can't recommend this place any more for sushi due to repeatedly subpar meals. Kusshi retains two weak stars for generous portion sizes and a nice interior ambiance. read more

Love the happy hour here!! The $7 lychee cosmos kept coming and the food deals were so good. I've tried just about everything on the happy hour menu and I would just say stick to the sushi. The quality is great and there isn't a sushi roll here that I don't like. Highly recommend the Ovi roll if you like salmon! read more

Kusshi Reston is your next dinner spot in Reston Town Center--and it's already setting the bar for elevated sushi. Huge thanks to Ben, the general manager, for making our experience truly unforgettable. From the Taro Bliss cocktail, which tasted like a refined, adult milk tea, to the enormous tuna sushi taco bursting with fresh, bold flavors, every sip and bite impressed. Not to mention the 24k GOLD AND CAVIAR?! And just when we thought it couldn't get better, the omakase set arrived--complete with an assortment of salts and seaweed that let us craft our own DIY hand rolls. Thoughtful, interactive, and absolutely delicious, Kusshi is a must-visit for sushi lovers in Reston! read more

I tried the sake crudos, Kusshi ko roll, samurai roll, and the wagyu fried rice. The sake crudos were very fresh and worth trying. My favorite was the Kusshi ko roll. All of the flavors melt in your mouth! I could pass on the samurai roll. The Wagyu fried rice was made extremely salty, but was pretty good otherwise. It might've just been a one time issue because I've never had any issues with Kusshi before. read more

Last time we ate there the level of noise was high especially with children who were not disciplined.

We love this place! The food is delicious. However, I'd recommend work on a recent fruit fly problem. Hopefully it was only a two-time thing and the fruit flies aren't there next time. Also-please enforce not allowing people to watch videos out loud on their devices. It ruins other peoples' experiences. read more

I absolutely recommend Kusshi. I'm just in Reston on a work trip, so I didn't realize they were newly opened. The service was great! Everyone was kind and attentive. My wine and food came out quickly. I got the Plum Sparkling Wine. It was very sweet, it's supposed to be. I got the Fatty Salmon appetizer and it was amazing!! It was melt in your mouth delicious. My roles were great too. The vibe is good...I think it would be even better if the lights were a bit lower. read more

Honestly surprised by the reviews here. I've come into the restaurant twice for lunch and ordered takeout for dinner a few times. The takeout sushi rolls seemed fairly good for delivery. However in person the raw fish (sashimi bento box and other items) for lunch tasted really unappealing and not fresh. The atmosphere is nice and service was fairly good, but I don't think I'll be back for fresh sushi. A couple things I pay attention to when I try a new sushi place: the quality of their sushi rice, ginger, and the flavor of basic fish like salmon and tuna. I didn't like any of the above here. This may be a good spot for cocktails or cooked appetizers, but I don't see the appeal for sushi. read more

Only can speak for myself, subpar fresh fish for nigiri, Ariake is WAY better. Overpriced for what you get. I'd equate it to eating Tex Mex over bona fide Mexican food. read more

I eat a lot of sushi all over the mid Atlantic region. And this by FAR is the best I've had. Quality is unreal. Prices are fair. And the servings are large per roll/piece. Ambiance is fashion forward contemporary which is a nice change of pace vs your normal "bamboo everywhere" traditional sushi spot. Highly recommended! Ps.
