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.

Staff was friendly and it felt like I was at a home kitchen because it felt cozy and welcoming. I ordered the katsu don and agedashi tofu. I loved how the tofu was slightly fried and the sauce complimented it very well. This appetizer felt light and made me crave for it more. The katsu don felt very comforting and was flavored nicely. I did add some togarashi for some spice. I would definitely come back to this place! It reminded me when I visited Japan because of the atmosphere and food.

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!

I absolutely loved this new Japanese steakhouse. I've already visited twice, once for sushi and…read moreonce for hibachi, and both experiences were outstanding. Even without a reservation, I was seated immediately, which was a great first impression. The service was excellent. Our server mentioned it was her first day, but you would never have guessed as she was attentive, warm, and handled everything beautifully. The food truly stood out. The sushi was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with high-quality ingredients. The hibachi experience was just as enjoyable. The chef was entertaining, skilled, and added a fun, engaging touch to the meal. The restaurant itself is clean, inviting, and has a great atmosphere that makes you want to stay and enjoy your time. I'll definitely be returning and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great sushi or hibachi experience.

We ordered a party boat that was about $81 which is more than reasonable. Finished almost all of it. I also had my 2 piece roe selection since that's my personal favorite. Service was nice. We had a waiter in training so it took just a bit longer but he did a good job. Ordered a Yueling and drank my draft in a cold glass. The fried oysters and seaweed salad were just ok but I liked their tempura. It's a very casual restaurant with a huge bar, some tables and habachi.

Some patrons have serious reactions that can be life threatening and that's the last thing I needed. Almost just got up and left. Fortunately we didn't see him again after asking to stay far away. Masks do nothing for fragrance. Ordered food and appetizers were ok. We did a 4 person grill set for 3 of use the food arrived far earlier than the drinks did. The water we had was tap water and wasn't good at all. Would have got a soda but with bad water not gonna try. Out of the beer I wanted but had something that worked. Ladies got drinks. Small and expensive and mostly ice. Tasted fine. The meat came and was displayed well with names of cuts to see what it was. Some dipping sauces were provided but small portions. Refilled after asking. Those were good. Meats were enough and the. Some for the three of us. The price...stupid pricing. Way stupid pricing. Meger amount of veggies to grill, all just left there. Overall, a good experience but the price is not having us back, ever. Third time ever there. It's a glam price and good for one time and done.

They have happy hour from 4-7pm, Monday thru Friday. We ordered 2 types of $5 rolls (Philadelphia and snow crab), a sexy girl roll, agedashi tofu and spicy tuna tartare. Each happy hour option was $1-3 cheaper than the regular menu counterpart. Sushi had well cooked rice. The sexy girl roll had tuna and avocado on the inside, imitation crab shreds on the outside. Sushi was fresh. The snow crab roll was imitation crab with crunchies. Philadelphia roll was cream cheese, cucumber and smoked salmon. The tofu was deep fried but not greasy and topped with dashi flakes. The accompanying sauce was served on the side instead of drizzled over the dish. The tartare appetizer had a lower layer of avocado chunks topped with chopped tuna mixed with spicy mayo. All were tasty. Service was polite. Happy hour prices were very reasonable.

I just order it on ubereats and felt like they deserved a good rating because they never disappoint, they give hearty helpings of food, and it's delicious! Also, the yum yum sauce is a must.

It took some time to get an attendant in the front to assist with getting a seat despite the non busy hours. However, after we sat down, our orders and concerns were addressed immediately. The atmosphere in the dining area was really nice. Immersed with the Japanese vibes and culture. However, when you use the restroom, this is a different topic. I believe the staff made sure that every area was clean before opening. I do suggest that someone would check at least the status. Imagine your customer being delighted with all the food and seeing gruesome in your cubicle would paint a bad experience and all the delicious food and service were tainted. Overall food and service wise, this is a good experience.
