I have been here before the pandemic. A while back. They used to have the little corner carry out area. For the pre packaged sushi. But Not anymore. I was surprised because they used to have such a good selection of everything. But i guess due to the pandemic they made some changes. The orders came very quickly. They were friendly and nice over there. I love their sushi though always. Just the prices are a but more than before. read more

Ordered the bulgolgi kimchi fried rice. It was eh. It wasn't bad but it wasn't great. That being said it won't stop me from trying this place again and ordering different things. It was still good. I will have to try more things on the menu next time, but I'll definitely come back if I'm in the area read more

First and foremost the server was nice, but the service when it came to accommodating on the mosquito cooked into my food was disgusting and ruined my whole experience. The manager failed to take accountability and did not grant any sort of compensation for the matter. She actually blamed it on the place having a bug problem... Not coming back and I hope the server finds a better restaurant to work. read more

Nooshi - Mongolian Mosquito chicken... - Sushi Bars Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

I was craving sushi and decided to stop by Nooshi for the first time. While the service was subpar, as often times I felt like they forgot we were dining there, the food did not disappoint. I tried the Shrimp Tempura maki roll and it was too good! The shrimp was so crispy and crunchy and the roll was perfectly put together. The addition of the ginger also helped to take it to the next level. For my entree, I tried the Mongolian Stir-Fry. It was more than enough food and every ingredient taste so fresh and perfectly prepared. We sat outside so I can't comment on the ambience, aesthetic, decor, etc. on the inside but the music was great -- they played a variety of Hip Hop and R&B. I would definitely return! read more

Without a doubt the best Sushi spot I have found in downtown DC, extremely affordable and high quality food. The happy hour is extremely convenient and affordable, great place to go after work. read more

Amazing happy hour (50% all drinks and $3-6 select sushi/apps) and great service. Recommend the lychee Bellini and mojito! read more

Nooshi - Sushi Bars Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

My husband had been really wanting to try this place. I would say it's the definition of a three star restaurant. Satisfied an urge to go and try it, but wouldn't go out of my way to go back. Both our drinks (mule and Bellini) were great and probably the highlight of the meal. For apps we got fried dumplings - which were good but definitely needed the soy sauce versus standing on their own. For the mains, I had gotten a green curry and my husband got a dumpling soup. Both were just ok. The curry tasted very oily to the point that it impacted the texture. Neither entree was anything special. read more

My first visit and had the Curry Laska! Wow. Flavor was awesome with coconut milk and medium spices. All I can say is Delicious!!! I definitely recommend this dish and this place. The service was nice. The ladies really pay attention to customers read more

The food is really good! It's not over priced & well worth the money. The service was excellent, all servers were very nice & knowledgeable. The atmosphere is very calm & peaceful, was a very quiet place. It felt high end without the high prices! Their sushi was in my top 3 of best I've ever had! Only thing that caught me off guard was they don't have yum yum sauce which I've never eaten sushi without it but it's so good it wasn't even necessary! Oh & the mochi was delicious!! I've had the store bought kind before & HATED it, my friend ordered the 3 piece one (chocolate, green tea & vanilla flavors) & it was SO good! Not anything like the store bought. The vanilla was the best in my opinion, then green tea, then chocolate (however my friend said his favorite was the opposite). This place has very beautiful vibrant dishes. Will absolutely come back any time I'm in DC (came from 4 hours away) read more

Perhaps the most aggravating thing about Nooshi is that the nigiri is served as singles, without the lovely bond of a usual pair. That aside, the offerings are reasonable and tasty. Observing diners, it is hard to tell if this place lures locals, or if it is a tourist trap. It does not feel like a tourist trap, however, despite being within walking distance of a hoard of hotels. It feels local and warm, not corporate and removed. Overall, the ambiance is chill, almost romantic. Odd, though -- it feels like it is a reformed diner, with its long, 6-seater booths which have been made contemporary. Nooshi also has a small outdoor patio in the front of the restaurant. The menu is full of favorites, a wonderful mishmash of Japanese, Chinese and Korean dishes: shumai, satay, spring rolls, teriyaki, korean BBQ ribs, pork belly, shaky beef, stir-fry, Chinese eggplant, braised spring beants, hot pot, pho, Tom Kha and sushi. I enjoyed the nigiri, especially the mackerel and ikura. Uni was on the menu, but unavailable. Bummer. The pad Thai offers large chunks of nicely flavored chicken and lovely bits of brussel spouts (an interesting addition), but the noodles were strangely dry. The calamari is a must! Served with spicy peppers and a decadent light dipping sauce, it was one of my favorites on the menu. I would return to try other menu items and to enjoy the sushi again. read more

Nice staff. Good service. Clean restaurant. Stayed in hotel next door. Every time I walked past the restaurant it was crowded! I decided to go for lunch and sat at the sushi bar. Very comfortable environment. Ate the garden salad with sesame dressing (yum!) and a spicy salmon crunch roll. Perfect for lunch! I will return. read more

Great portions and staff very attentive/friendly. Will dine her again as they remembered me from before and were on point to fill up drinks each time barely below halfway. read more

I had one bad experience here, where I bought a bumble date here and then... two weeks later he bought another girl here. I guess that goes to show how good this place is... and how horrible my taste in men are. I mean yeah.. I was on a date with another guy.. but that's not the point. I have been going to Nooshi for years. I feel horrible it took me THIS long to write a review. I ABSOLUTELY love Nooshi. I have NEVER and I mean NEVER had a bad experience here and I have been coming here since... 2015. This is my hidden gem. I probably come here at least once a week. My FAVORITE dishes are the phucket noodles, the bulgogi buns and the noodles on a boat. Once you become a regular here the staff will quickly remember you. You can tell this place has great management because they don't have a high turnover rate in staff. The staff also will keep your dirty secrets of bringing all your dates here. I've definitely come here with a different guy every week, one summer. I would 10/10 recommend... this spot! read more

Love the Phuket noodles, pad Thai, spicy California roll with fresh crab meat and Thai tea. If ever in the mood for Thai this is my go to. read more

We came here for happy hour which we were a bit disappointed.. as all they had were the drinks for half off. They do not offer any food options which is just a bit usual during happy hour especially in the city. So, we contemplated on ordering some of the food options and decided to start with the Gyoza's which were slightly over cooked. And that's where we decided to end with the food options as well. The drinks were just okay. I had gotten a mojito which was a lot more on the sweet side. It seem like their bartender was quite a bit inexperienced as the people next to us had to explain how to make their drinks since they did not know how to do some of the basic things they asked them. Nothing really special. Overall, I probably would not come again. read more

DELICIOUS. I was looking for some affordable sushi (an oddity nowadays), and Nooshi made it happen! I'd recommend the Spicy Tuna Roll and Spicy Crunch Yellowtail Roll. My dad also got the Mee Goreng noodle dish, and it was very tasty (good for vegetarians). While picking up our take-out, we saw a nice outside patio to sit in. *Make sure to ask for extra soy sauce read more

I can't believe I haven't reviewed this place yet! This is a nice Asian spot next to one of my best friends' offices. I have been to this happy hour on three occasions now, though they call it crazy hour (accurate). So there is some seating outside (though ironically, I have never been to this place during the warm months, so I have never been out there), and you see several tables and a small bar when you walk inside. When you walk further in, you realize just how deep the place goes. It's a lot bigger than it may appear from the front. So for the most recent visit, I was with a party of ~20 coworkers, so we had to get a table. The staff were very kind and patient with accommodating all of us! It was wet outside, so a nice touch about this place is that they have coat racks in the back. If we chose, we could hang our coats on the rack and get them later. I can't think of another place that does that. Their happy hour is 1/2 off all of the specialty drinks, which is a nice variety. I tend to default to the "My Mai Tai" which is delicious and strong! It's also worth noting that this place has happy hour on weekends too, so that's always a plus. My favorite appetizer (well, one of them) is the sweet corn wonton, which is these little wontons filled with shrimp and crabmeat. They're delicious, just not filling at all. For $7, it's a tad discouraging to order more than one order... I don't even think two would fill me up, but it's so good!! They serve their sushi in these fancy little dishes. Overall, the staff is nice and their food and drink selections are on point. I'd recommend it to anyone in the area. read more

Tried this place on our last visit to DC. The cool thing is that their happy hour consists of 1/2 priced drinks. That deal can't be beat in downtown DC. Great sushi. It's pricy ($17/roll) but it feeds two people. Great place. I'd recommend. read more

Pretty fast service for work lunch but can get a bit pricey, especially if you order sushi. I've been to Nooshi a couple times as it was in close proximity to where I worked. In terms of food, the restaurant is Pan-Asian cuisine, serving Thai, Korean, sushi, and other Japanese dishes. For sushi, the fish quality is actually pretty good and better than other Pan-Asian restaurants in DC. I was initially skeptical at ordering their Uni (sea urchin) as usually only higher end places serve it and at market price, but Nooshi's tasted pretty good! However, ordering enough sushi a la carte to be full get expensive. Other dishes are pretty standard (nothing stands out but nothing was bad either) and portion sizes are large enough to be filled. Service is very good and wait staff is friendly and attentive, especially during lunch rush hours. read more

I really enjoy Nooshi and don't visit as often as I'd like. It's super popular so I recommend going early. The spring rolls were crisp and flavorful. The noodles in the mee goreng were fresh and it was spicy and delicious. I love the Singapore noodles, which are well-seasoned with curry. I appreciate that you can add vegetables to the noodle dishes. Service is always friendly and I want to return to try happy hour. read more

Absolutely horrendous! The food was inedible, service rude, and the place filthy. Found a bug in my meal and got sick. Avoid at all costs; this place is a health hazard. Never coming back! read more

The cocktails here were delicious (and did the job of making it a happy hour!) The 50% off happy hour is definitely something everyone should check out here - putting a good twist on classic cocktails with punny names and good mixes. Although our server kind of stared us down a lot - my friend took a sip of my drink and he came over to ask for her ID - and took away our cocktail menu when it was still happy hour (miscommunication issues more than being rude) I'm grateful that he did come over to take one last call for happy hour drinks for my friends and I. I also appreciated that although we got a booth table (fits around 4), the servers brought over another chair right away to seat a fifth friend when he arrived late. I got the Phuket noodles dish. This is a good dish if you like pho noodles and Tom Yum soup (sweet and sour soup, is what is advertised), whcih was unclear to me, that the noodles were served in a soup. Personally wished that the menu did not classify noodle soup within the noodles, same as dishes like Pad Thai and Drunken noodles, that kind of thing. I was not a fan of this dish but I had a taste of my other friends' and theirs was really good!! So it was my fault when it came to my order. Overall good experience, and most of the staff that tended to us were nice and accommodating. They let us stay a decent amount of time too, more than 2 hours... Anyway, will definitely be dropping by here another time! read more

You're probably wondering where I'm writing this review from...my couch. I practically had to roll myself home after the delicious meal I had Nooshi this afternoon. I had a chance to indulge in the crab rangoons, salmon skin and scallion roll and the curry laska as my main course. The Rangoons are perfectly cooked and actually have a good amount of meat which is usually rare for a lot of places. It's served with a wasabi mayo this isn't too overwhelming by any means and pairs perfectly. This was my first Time having the this specific roll which was good, but I'd probably explore other options next time. The salmon skin was cooked well, but I think I personally enjoy rolls with a little extra. Once again, personal preference so don't let it deter you! The curry laska is served in a beautiful ladle style bowl and is topped with perfectly fried tofu. I wish I could fully explain how delicious this is, but you'll have to try it for yourself. The flavors are perfect and ideal for a chilly/ rainy day or ANY day if you love a good soup like me. It's loaded with noodles, chicken, and string beans. I topped off my meal with a Mai Thai which has a good amount of liquor and is the perfect intro into the weekend. I'd be remiss if I didn't say how nice and attentive the wait staff are. We didn't have to ask for anything and they quickly helped us get situated when we came inside. Our food also came SUPER quick. Nooshi continues to be a fave! read more

We stumbled into Nooshi after trying to go to Greek Deli and running into an extremely long line, and we were pleasantly surprised. The service was quick which was great for our limited lunch time hour. The waitresses were extremely helpful with the menu as it was our first time there, and they helped us make some especially delicious selections. I would definitely recommend this sushi spot! I got the calamari and the spicy shrimp roll and both were great. I especially liked that the calamari came with a honey lemon sauce that was something I had never seen with calamari, but complimented the calamari so well! The sushi also tasted extremely fresh and days later I still find myself craving it and plotting my next return for more. The portions were pretty big, and considering the restaurant is in downtown DC, the prices were not bad at all. I spent about 15$ for lunch which is standard. read more

I had a brief stint working in DC while my office was being renovated and Nooshi was one of my boyfriend and I's favorite lunch time haunts because of it's prices and convenience. Apparently, it is a favorite of many other Dupont workers as well because this place always had a wait. This place kind of reminds me of Cafe Asia in terms of decor and food options but unlike Cafe Asia I have never felt the urge to throw up from over drinking or eating bad sushi (although I do hear they have a 50% off extended happy hour so ask me again about that another time!). My boyfriend and I are pretty much like 80 year old patrons getting the blue light special at a local diner whenever we eat here because we ALWAYS order the same thing. For him, the chicken pad thai and for me, spicy crunchy tuna rolls and California rolls (although last week I expanded to get scallop sashimi and was not disappointed). My rolls are pretty standard and I never noticed anything questionable about it which makes it A-OK in my book. The boy heartily endorses the pad thai and gives an extra thumbs up for their extra large perfectly glazed and pan fried tofu chunks that are mixed in with the noodles. Overall, a solid lunch spot! read more

10/10!!! Food was fantastic. Especially the sushi plates (toro!). All the desserts (we tried all of them) were incredible and big hits with my family. Restaurant looks great, very inviting space. The manager Steven was so nice, and I look forward to bringing friends and family here again! read more

Love their happy hour! Half off all drinks (except frozen). If you like cocktails ($4 HH) you really should check it out as it's one of the few places that do a lil something for those drinks. I had the "Woo Woo" (vodka, peach liqueur, & cranberry juice) which is nice if you want an alternative to Mai Tais, mojitos, or bellinis. They also have a lemon saketini which is unique! Food - The sushi is pretty good overall and range $4-12. Unless you love tofu or dryness, skip the tofu fries. Fun fact: I came here for a Meetup event and the folks at the table next to us work for Meetup! That sh.t CR@Y. read more

This sushi spot is very clean and the interior is very nicely decorated! The entrees are all pretty big portioned so it can easily be shared with two people. I got the sushi roll, there were many options but one roll i was particularly looking for that was missing was the sweet potato roll. It's quite probably in sushi spots so i was surprised they didn't have it! But the food was overall really good. We topped off dinner with sake bombs! Kinda expensive but good, worth a shot if you've never had before! read more
