We decided to come check this place out on a Sunday afternoon because I heard they had some of the best sushi in town. Well, whoever said that was right! I live in the apartments next door, so it's refreshing to know you can just come downstairs and order some fresh sushi. They can even deliver to you if you're close by. Some positive takeaways just from my one visit is that the staff is very friendly. Our food came out in a decent amount of time. On Sunday's they have a special on their Redskins Roll. Even if you're not a skins fan (like myself) I encourage everyone to try this because it was really good. Tip: They do have happy hour Mon-Fri 4:30pm-6:30pm and daily specials. The Redskins Roll was a Sunday special. Do note that in order to enjoy the daily special items, you will have to eat them in house. You cannot take them to go. But that's ok, you will want to eat it while it's fresh anyway. Another great aspect about this place is the service and how all the food came out warm and fresh. The won tons we ordered were fresh and hot. Not warm, but hot! Just as it should be. This place get's five stars, for sure! Extra credit will come your way if you add a Ravens Roll :) Just putting that out there! read more

tom yum soup at this place is amazing!!!! Roll and sushi is about to personal taste. In most cases I like it.

Nice clean simple interior and good sushi. I had stopped in at lunch hour and ended up with the godzillla and pink lady. The pick lady was different from other places I have had it (or at least by the same name) but happy to say very tasty. Shrimp shumai appetizer was probably one of the best tasting ones I've had. What stood out the most was the server soooo very friendly and attentive my water glass never went below half and she even joked that she "had to stay busy" so she filled it regularly. Couldn't have been more pleased with her. read more

A bit underwhelming. The chicken teriyaki and fried rice lacked flavor. The miso soup was surprisingly good. The shrimp teriyaki was better, but not worth trying this place again. read more

I got food poisoning from their sushi. I am 100% sure it was from the sushi too. It didn't taste super fresh and now I know why. Their take away is quick for what it's worth. read more

WORST FUCKING SUSHI EVER! This is some over priced bullshit. All the sushis were BLAND. Blander than boiled chicken. It's bizarre how all 4 of the rolls had absolutely no flavor. It's definitely one of those moments where you can tell if you eat this, you'll be sick the next day. If I could give this place zero stars I would. I have had some really good sushi in my life and this place went on my "trash garbage do not eat here ever list" after one bite of the spicy tuna roll. That's where they went...straight in the trash as it should. We ordered 4 rolls for $60+ only for all the rolls to look extremely sad and pathetic. Special shout out to the spicy tuna roll where the tuna looked worse than the dying vegetables in my fridge. It was not fresh, it had a smell, it was dark in color. We ordered another tuna roll and it was the same. Specialty rolls had nothing special about it.What a rip off. People giving this shit sushi place 4 stars...please go eat at an actual proper sushi place like Yume shushi, Prince sushi, Maru Korean and sushi place...especially Maru if y'all looking for affordable yet amazing FRESH sushi. I feel really sorry for people who genuinely like this place. IF YOU ARE THINKING OF EATING HERE...please DON'T. It's not worst your precious hard working pennies. read more

Delicious fresh, melt in your mouth sushi! Loved every entree. Good selection of quality sushi rolls and Chirashi. Highly recommend Spicy California, Gyoza and Sunset Roll. Beautiful dining area, fully stocked bar and the ability to diversify when not all of your friends feel like raw fish. The service was attentive and friendly. Look forward to coming back! read more

My review is on based several times I been to this restaurant. If you want warm sushi than come here. If you want terrible Thai food than come here. The chef definitely doesn't know how to make basic pad Thai or drunken noodles. Also if you terrible customer service than come here. This place use to be good a few years but definitely quality has dropped. Go to another place! read more

We've been coming here for years and the service as well as the food always has been high quality and delicious! It our little hidden gem. Great options especially for kids as well. read more

I ordered delivery and had a delicious experience with everything I ordered: -Chicken skewers: there was only 2 BUT they were BIG and super tasty in a Street Chicken style- came seasoned with flavorful spices and a tangy side sauce. - Shrimp Tempura: Huge round cut rolls- stuffed with avocado and cucumber and topped with eel sauce. It was a little on the pricey side being you only get 5, but the fact that they are huge makes up for that. - House salad- pretty typical to Japanese style side salads but the portion was huge and the ginger sauce was delicious. Overall take: will DEFINITELY be back! read more

The Vienna/McLean/Oakton area offers plenty of affordable, delicious, and consistent sushi restaurants (Takumi, Tachibana, Sushi Yama, Sushi Yoshi, Sushi Yoko just to name a few). Passion Fin is not one of them. My wife and I order from Passion Fin on occasion when we feel like eating sushi but don't want to leave the house because they're one of the only sushi places that delivers. If you are looking for fresh fish, authentic Japanese preparation, and good service - look elsewhere. First of all, be wary of any restaurant with a "pan-Asian" menu like Passion Fin has... if you think you can do justice to Sushi, Thai, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, and other fare under one roof, you're fooling yourself. As for the sushi, the fish is inconsistent at best. Some nights I'd give the freshness and flavor an 8/10, most nights it's closer to a 6/10, but unfortunately too often it's been a 3/10. The worst part about Passion Fin is how expensive it is! I get the same amount of food with better quality, for half the price at any of the restaurants I named above. The one thing I appreciated about Passion Fin in the past was at least the service was friendly and accommodating. This was not the case today. I simply asked them to use a blowtorch on the top of my salmon belly nigiri (a common practice in any sushi restaurant that is worth its salt). The hostess I spoke with told me they were unable to do that. I asked her to request that the chef do it, because I've literally never been to a sushi restaurant that was unable to fulfill this request. I heard her ask the chef if they could sear my fish. I corrected her - I did not want the fish seared, but rather passed over with a simple blowtorch. The chef obliged... but for an upcharge of $2. I balked... considering the sushi cost $5 and I've NEVER had to pay for this request in any other restaurant. The hostess's response was "do you want the salmon or not". I canceled the order. Incredible how such a simple request would not be fulfilled by the kitchen. I'm not sure we'll be returning to Passion Fin after this experience... I didn't like it that much to begin with... this experience was enough to push me over the edge. read more

Good local Asian fusion sushi spot in the Dunn Loring area. Ambiance: Modern Asian lounge look Cuisine: Mix of Japanese sushi/bento, Chinese-American stir fries, Thai curries - Food: 4/5 - Cost: 3.5/5 - Seating: 5/5 lots of free seating inside and outside and not too crowded - Customer Service: 5/5 - Parking: 4.5/5 free parking garage not too far away but I can see these getting crowded Must Haves: - Appetizer sashimi - 8 pieces for $10 is pretty good and includes shiso leaf and radish salad. Nice protein filling healthy option Good: - Ikura salmon roe - I have a soft spot for this, and I just have to accept it's $3 a piece. At least they give a lot - Spicy sushi combo - it's nice but I thought I would get 6 pieces per roll but that's okay it's a fair deal. Notes: - Valpak has coupons for passionfin both the mail in and the valpak app - Yelp also has an offer for cash back now if you need to save some dough read more

So I had a Groupon that was about to expire, shocking I know. Hubby and I enjoy good sushi but don't make it out for such eats often enough. The thing about sushi is that there are a couple of grades of sushi which include bad, OK, good, and "I want more". This was OK to good. It might just have been OK except that since we have not been out for sushi in a while so we both had a seriouos hankering and that may be part of the reason I am rounding up to good. This is a relatively small restaurant. You walk in and the bar and bar tables (higher tables) are to the right while on the left side are regular hieght tables as well as the chefs' work area. There are a couple of TV screens but they were not loud or overwelming. There is some background noise but you can still hold a conversation (or listen to the ones near you). The bar had a older crowd who seemed to have met for after work drinks before the holiday week got too crazy. The tables near us were younger folks one was a couple and the other was a few coworkers talking office politcs. The place was clean, the server was nice enough. Our language limits made asking questions about items not a realistic possibility. We had a few rolls we enjoyed. Writing this a week after our visit I do not really recall any rolls that were particularly enjoyable. In general it was nice place to have a sushi dinner, relax, and talk with the hubby in a not crowded or overly loud environment right off of Gallows Road. read more

I was sorely disappointed after we got our mains. The decor is nice, it was clean and quiet, and the service was attentive and prompt. I ordered the chirashi deluxe (my usual). Immediately I poked around and thought the presentation was mediocre. Also Wasn't a fan of the sauce on my rice. It also seemed like standard jasmine, no stickiness no sweetness. I generally like sushi rice with my chirashi (not sure if that is standard). The tamago was bland, spongy and caky. Ikura (fish roe) was lukewarm and fishier than normal. The lobster salad was a chewy, salty and didn't seem like lobster at all--this is actually the first time I've ever had lobster salad in Chirashi. Overall their rolls were pretty good, but there were a lot of fillers--if you want real crab make sure the description says that it's real crab. Their fish, however, wasn't the most memorable. read more

I'm sad that Passion Fin finally opened when I'm leaving my job in the Merrifield area because I've always wanted a close sushi lunch option. Oh well, at least I can stop by after the gym or for dinner! They have a good variety of *affordable* lunch specials, such as: - Kitchen special: an entree served with rice - Hibachispecial: hibachi styled meat served with rice - Rolls special: 2 rolls (from a huge list, not just plain rolls like California and tuna) for $8.95 or 3 rolls for $12.50 - Sushi platter special: Assorted fish and rolls ...and all of the specials come with soup or salad! In addition to the lunch specials, they serve an Asian fusion of Japanese, Thai, and Chinese food. I ordered the 3 rolls for lunch and they weren't skimpy on the fish whatsoever! Even the presentation was nice. Our service was also friendly. I WILL be back to try more! read more

Passion Fin offers some very delicious sushi and sashimi. Everything is fresh and reasonably priced, so you can really get your sushi ninja on. We started off with an order of uni (sea urchin) with a quail egg. This is one of my favorite sushi dishes, and Sushi Fin prepared this creamy and yummy beauty to perfection. We followed up with a sashimi lunch entree: oh, mackerel, red fin tuna, and salmon.. Oh my!! A scrumptious diversion that made my afternoon a magical experience, my sashimi lunch will certainly bring me back to Passion Fin. So if you're looking for that spot where you can claim your Sushi Sensei badge, this might just be it. But if not, this sushi palace is bound to treat you like sushi-loving royalty. read more

Absolutely a four star sushi experience. Passion Fin has a nice large dining room with a separate sushi bar from the drinks bar. Nice concept, but I found the bench seating along the wall to be less than completely comfortable despite having a great view of the restaurant. I ordered three rolls and each was excellent. Not too much sauce on the eel roll and the "super rainbow" was absolutely excellent. Very clean tasting, very nicely presented and well assembled. The slice of star fruit was a nice garnish! The sushi did not fall apart even slightly when dipped in the soy sauce. Service was decent - only two were working but they were moving quickly to get orders, clear plates and the like. I have no complaints. Passion Fin was very good. I'm a fan! read more

Came here on a Living Social deal for lunch on a weekend. The place was pretty empty so we were seated right away. Our server was nice and checked in often. We noticed the staff was hanging out, chit chatting (at times loudly) and sitting around the bar - it wasn't busy but not something you'd want to see in plain sight. Food - it was good. We got mostly rolls. The sunrise roll was delicious. Really enjoyed it. The real crab meat roll tasted like cold crab meat from the can. I couldn't taste any crab in some of the pieces. It was okay but wouldn't order again. The rest of the rolls were good but nothing special. Noted - miso soup and salad isn't included with sushi order unless it's a lunch special, sushi ENTREE(?!?) and all other it seems like except sushi and rolls. Umm...yea. Let's work on that one Passion Fin. Overall, decent addition to Merrifield. Better deals for lunch but pricey otherwise. Will come back but not as my first pick. read more

Since I can't rate it a 3.3, I rounded it down to 3 stars. I really wanted to like this place, especially since it was recommended by my friend. But I wasn't all that impressed. First off, their outside sign is super tiny so I really drove past it like 5 times. So did my friend. It's bigger than most of the other sushi places which is always a plus. Their menu has a variety of Chinese and Thai entrees. They have a lot of specials depending on what day you're visiting. I was bummed out that they only offer happy hour prices at the bar. My friend and I shared 6 rolls, but I only liked the Redskins roll. Their spicy salmon roll was barely spicy and I'm pretty sensitive to spicy food. I liked it there, but didn't love it. It was average for sushi places. read more

I went here for a weekend dinner. It is really close to Dunn Loring-Merrifield Station. The decor is really nice, staff were very friendly, and service was attentive and quick. We ordered Beef & Chicken satay, Shrimp tempura, Flamingo Roll, Pink lady roll, and assortment of sashimi including fatty tuna, fatty salmon, Uni, and Mackerel. Beef & Chicken satay came with peanut sauce and tasted very delicious and the shrimp tempura was fluffy, and crispy. Pink lady roll (10 pieces) filled with shrimp tempura and was perfectly balanced in textures and flavors. Flamingo Roll (10 pieces) filled with spicy yellowtail, spicy tuna, spicy salmon, and mango, and was also delicious. Fatty tuna and fatty salmon sashimi were off the menu and they were very fresh and melt in your mouth, Uni sashimi was sweet and buttery, like savoury cream, but Mackerel sashimi was very fishy tasting and almost pickled? It might just be how it is, but won't ever order that again. I'm sure this place will be a great experience for any new customers. read more

I find that it's hard to find exceptional sushi-- but Passion Fin has it! Great food and fun atmosphere for kicking back at the bar with a bottle of Malbec. The sushi trio was a huge hit for my boyfriend and I love the maki rolls and Tom Yom soup. Tonight we're trying the Thai Basil chicken dish -- I'm sure we won't be disappointed! In addition to the delicious food, the staff is super friendly and attentive. Shout out to Suri-- our wonderful bar tender! read more

First time ordering from passion fin- I was not disappointed. The hibachi shrimp fried was a big hit. The sashimi and sushi platter was good and my specialty roll was pretty good as well. Next time I would probably stick to ordering a few sushi and nigiri rolls not sashimi. I also enjoyed the miso soup- flavorful and not salty. It was packed very well and delivered in a timely manner. read more

Best place in town for Happy Hour if you're looking for sushi. Specialty rolls only $7 and regular rolls are $3. Attention to detail and presentation is done well here. Arrive at 4:30PM when they open and sit at the bar...drink specials too holler at Suri - fantastic bartender and always remembers you ...happy hour prices only at the bar read more

High quality sushi! The prices aren't too bad and there's a ton of sushi options. The service takes a little long, but they are usually busy when I come in. There is a ton of seating though! The hard part is if you get a lot of sushi and plan on sharing.. good luck figuring out which is which! I always forget, but they server is always nice enough to remind us when she comes back by. Really enjoy going here! read more

Great happy hour place! I'm so happy this place is located a quick 5 min walk from my home since this is probably my new fav happy hour. I'm only sad that we came here 5 min before it was ending! They have a variety of specialty martinis and cocktails on the menu. We got the peartini and the lychee tini. I had an amazing peartini at a sushi restaurant years ago and none I've tried since then matched, including this one, but their lychee tini has become a new fav for me! Their sushi tastes fresh and had a good balance of flavors. We also ordered drunken noodles with seafood, which had a good amount of seafood present. All in all, it was a great time and we look forward to coming back. read more

Good sushi for the neighborhood! I don't think I'd go out of the way to drive here but it was girls birthday. Quality was good, we got 4 speciality rolls to split between 2 people. Wanted to write this review because i realized there was not enough menu pics so posting their sushi menu. read more

Review is for takeout only. Passionfin is tasty, reliable, and quick. It's our go-to takeout place for general Asian fare because the menu has Japanese, American Chinese, and Thai options that are all good, so it's easy to coordinate for a group that may not be totally aligned on what they want to eat. The sushi is fresh and they are very good about accommodating any special requests you leave in that section. I can't say every dish is 5 stars, the best you've ever had of it's kind, but overall everything has been tasty and you just can't beat the convenience. We usually use DoorDash and haven't had any issues with it at Passion Fin. We'll definitely continue to order from here in the future. read more

The roti canai is friggin incredible. The paratha looking bread is nice and flaky and oily and tasty with the rich curry sauce to go with it. The udon noodles is also quite good. Everything tasted fresh and high quality. I'll be back for more roti!! read more

Lots to recommend about Passion Fin for both takeout and dine-in. They offer really solid pan-asian food and are a great addition to the neighborhood. Passion Fin has Japanese, Chinese, and Thai options on the menu. Most of the Japanese offerings are sushi, although there is some teriyaki and tempura. There are also a few standard options for Chinese and Thai. In general, the food is very good. We used to only get takeout from here (which you pickup, the restaurant itself doesn't deliver) and it was pretty good. I have to say, though, that the food is noticeably better when served in the restaurant. That's probably always a little true (I mean, what food tastes better after transit), but it was especially noticeable here. So maybe it's more accurate to say three stars for takeout, and four for dine-in. Dining in, it's a very pleasant experience. It always seems to be pleasantly busy, but never packed. There are tvs by the bar and in the front dining room, but not in the back room. It actually makes Passion Fin a nice alternative for catching an NFL game when nearby Blackfinn is overrun. The service is friendly and fast, and there is a nice selection of wines by the bottle and by the glass. There a very good selection of beers at super friendly prices. The appetizers offer a nice variety, and I would especially recommend the pot stickers and the vegetable spring rolls. For the Chinese entrees, the lo mein is excellent. The various fried chicken entrees (General Tso's, orange chicken, etc) are pretty good, but the sauces are maybe a little too sweet and not spicy enough. read more

This is the closest sushi restaurant to where I live. The happy hour specials are pretty good here. I'd stick with the sushi and not order the non-sushi items here.

Love coming here! Food is always amazing! The staff is always very friendly and accommodating.

I've been to Passion Fin a handful of times, plus some and I have never been disappointed. I took my girl-friend here along with my best friend and it was their first time trying this place out. We knew we wanted sushi but didn't exactly know where to go, we ended up here because there was an ad going around on Instagram for one free Redskins Roll with a purchase of 2 rolls (I think). We came in thinking this was a great deal since we're some broke college kids, and we were only going to spend $30 total for all 3 of us. So, 2 rolls later our Redskin Rolls come out and we're STILL craving for more since it is so good. ....Long story short, we ended up spending $30 each. hehehe. read more

One of my favorite places for simple, tasty vegan sushi. I've been visiting Passion Fin for a few years, and every time I order a roll of sweet potato sushi. I recommend everyone try this dish here, as it's so delicious (great balance of crispy exterior with soft interior). They also offer several other great dishes (I enjoy their tropical fried rice), an extensive drink menu (including speciality cocktails), and of course the delicious green candies at the door. Great place to visit with a group (as they have lots of seating and parking) or on your own at the bar. read more
