I didn't find any krab or even the taste of it, but good none the less. I shared another appetizer, inuri ( not sure if spelling), tofu fried in a wrapper and covered in a delicious sweet sauce. I'm not a tofu person, but this dish could change that! DH ordered hot and sour soup and drunken noodles. Not a fan of hot and sour soup but I liked this one! So did DH. He loved his drunken noodles with pork. It had a hint of curry and was a little spicy. He ordered a sweet tea and said it was really, really sweet. Diner #2 ordered miso soup and teriyaki chicken. She loved the soup and I got to taste her chicken. It came kind of fajita style on a sizzling platter with red and green peppers, broccoli and a little bit of onion with a generous portion of chicken breast sliced on top with a good sauce and sesame seeds. It was accompanied by white rice. Large enough portion that she has lunch for tomorrow! Diner #3 ordered an eel roll and a few pieces of fat salmon sashimi. She said it was all good. I ordered pad Thai with shrimp. Several large shrimp were delicious and the noodles were very good. I ordered it as mild as possible and there was not a hint of 'hot' spice although it was physically really hot, which I love. I think next time I'd ask for a little heat in it. As I'm writing this I realize I could have asked for some chili oil or something to spice it but I enjoyed it very much. The server was terrific and a few people made sure our drinks were refilled. I definitely am looking forward to my next visit here. There are lots of things I want to try!

RAINBOW ROLL - $17 California roll w/ tuna, salmon, & yellowtail. Very good! Salmon was thick and melted in my mouth. Even the ginger was very good. SALMON TERIYAKI DINNER - $27 Grilled salmon w/ stir-fried seasonal veggies, served w/ steamed rice & teriyaki sauce. Good! My nephew's "Japanese Curry" Chicken Katsu ($25) was a big portion and looked very good. My sister & brother-in-law got the "Salmon Avocado Roll" ($9) and "Shrimp Tempura Roll" ($10) - they enjoyed.

You really can't go wrong with good sushi, I guess. The service is always timely and friendly without being theatrical, which I appreciate (especially when I'm listening to music or reading a book!). The restaurant itself is always clean and the dining area is very presentable, which always makes me more comfortable about eating in. I almost always get the broccoli yaki as my appetizer, and it's so simple but so good. It's always cooked just right and has a perfect sauce over it. I've tried a variety of sushi rolls, but end up getting the fried (I believe it's the Las Vegas Roll) each time because I'm southern and fried food is the best food :) I always love that you get fruit at the end of the meal to cleanse the palate, which is a great way to end the experience. Literally the only thing I can think of to improve the experience would be for them to offer tempura ice cream and I would actually be there every night.

I ordered the sushi platter, DC monument II (no longer on the menu but they can still make it), and spicy tuna with a pomegranate ginger ale. I was also offered miso soup. Everything came quickly. I have always loved the freshness of this sushi and I will forever Stan the DC Monument rolls. I was also offered fruit at the end. I will be back soon, as I missed this place!

None of us were from this area, and we intended to go to the Mayflower Chinese Restaurant, based on Yelp reviews. However, once we walked in the door, it was apparent this place was focused on carryout, and there was no way we were staying to eat in their dingy entrance area. We walked next door to the Meleket Ethiopian restaurant. However, the place was deserted, and we didn't stay there either. We tried the Lime & Cilantro, the next place down, but it was packed and couldn't handle our group. So, we skipped past the verernary clinic and went to Spring Garden. And, what a great choice that was. They offer a huge menu of Chinese, Thai, and Japanese meals. Everything is reasonably priced. Once we got our food, we were impressed with the quality and portion sizes. And, through it all, the service was prompt and friendly. I ordered Hot and Sour soup (my bellwether for Chinese restaurants) and beef chow fun. The soup was flavorful without being overpowering, and the chow fun was delicious too. I liked everything so much that I ordered another soup and Thai Basil with Chicken to go, and that's been my lunch for the past couple of days. Don't be put off by the seediness of its location. Spring Garden is a great place to grab some tasty, reasonably priced food, either to eat in or take away.

I would say that I love the new concept for privacy and convenience to have separate hibachi style…read moregrill tables throughout the restaurant than the traditional long table, where the entire restaurant has to share the table for communal dining, so that is a step up. I think that the customer service was excellent and the chef had charisma, personality, and should do stand up, he was a pleasure and a joy such a guy with rizz. My issue was the food itself as the rice was amazing but did not age well being taken back home for take out, and the chicken and salmon were not as flavorful as a homemade version I would had cooked so there was the blandness. I ended up having digestive issues and got sick for a day or two after eating from here which was disappointing, because the vibe is awesome in this spot and the positive energy is contagious. I felt so relaxed and joyous here. I think the food can be cooked better even though they are generous with excellent portion sizes. I think it is a strong contender for one of the best restaurants in the region if they step the food preparation up. I also did not like this sauce they provided, but it does have better customer service than the typical DMV spots which tend to struggle with the customer service, so they get an A with that making you feel welcomed and respected and not strictly transactional experience, very warm, nice, attentive, diligent, and hard working staff, so they have the bones here, so once they step up the actual food prep and quality then they will be 4 to 5 stars easily. That is all I got!

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.

It took a few minutes for someone to come to the register but I wasn't in a rush so I waited quietly. The kitchen looked very clean and well organized. The floors were clean (no sticky shoes noises here) and that's always a good sign in my book. I was told it would be about 10 minutes. I ordered the chicken hibachi and 2 vegetable spring rolls. I didn't check out the restrooms but they are available for customers. I don't blame the establishment but I wrongly assumed the fried rice would be Japanese style. When I got back to work and saw the rice...I understood why he asked if I wanted yum yum sauce. It was definitely catered to DMV carry out standards.

LoL! I know the words but can't put them in the right order so there was a language barrier happening here. LoL! Some of the food on the hot bar looked like it had been sitting for quite some time under the lamp and it looked very dried out. I ordered the beef teriyaki, my husband ordered the chicken / beef / shrimp teriyaki, and our daughter had the chicken teriyaki. We ordered extra Yum Yum sauce to go with it. I didn't taste everyone else's this time because I was hyper focused on mine. The Beef Teriyaki was bland. There was no flavor until I dipped the beef in the Yum Yum Sauce. I asked for steam white rice and I received fried rice. Long review short, I didn't eat this because I'm going to have to add some seasonings from home to hype it up for it to be good. My husband on the other hand enjoyed his dish because of the shrimp. Our daughter ate a big portion of hers. She didn't say whether or not she liked it. 2.5 Stars.

It did take a while before things got cooking, but it was alright. A lot of metal-clacking and showmanship, heh, which I'm not normally one for. I think the flames shooting in our direction got our attention, though...trust me, it was fine. Anyhow, the food was decent. I don't get too wowed by anything but I enjoyed it, and they made sure there was more than enough to bring home. Worked for me. The drink refills were helpful as well. The miso soup is a little less salty than I remember. Otherwise no complaints. The salad was good, don't know what the sauce was made of but we ate it up. Overall, a good experience. As an aside, the place has expanded. It's bigger, can handle more diners. There's garage parking close by, used to hate going there but things have been streamlined.

It felt very perfunctory and cooking took at least 20 minutes to start so I was starving, and then could not eat some of the food.

However, they definitely do not understand ingredients and do not know what goes into their dishes, as Jill pointed out. Someone with an allergy or intolerance should never, ever go here. I told the server no egg, yet was served two dishes with egg in it. So either they just don't care or they aren't the brightest, but either way this place is a skip for me.

There was no bartender (and don't judge me for wanting a Margarita on a Sunday).
