    Incredible service and delicious food. We had the coconut yellow curry, Tokyo Dashi broth, sushi sampler, & double salmon roll and everything was perfect! Some of the best curry I've had in a while.

    Try one of crunchy shrimp rolls. So unique! They were delicious! Their California rolls were wonderful and my husband loved the smoked dragon fire.

    Seoul rolls are good if you like sweet and spicy or smoky Flavors. The double salmon rolls is more sweet than spicy. But both are good choices.

    Their outdoor seating is top-notch. Try their fusion options (like the Chilean Sea Bass or the Crunchy roll series) for a unique dining experience!

    The dumplings are pretty terrible, but the salmon sashimi w green apples was fantastic. Typical and delicious Vietnamese spring rolls.

    They're really cool about separate checks here. They gave us 6 separate - no mistakes! And the food is tasty so that's cool too.

    Perhaps the best spicy salmon crunch roll in DC. They don't grind up the fish first.

    I'd say avoid the "pizza" with "pan-seared" tuna-- it's a shaky dish with flavors that just don't work.
