Good place for sushi NW DC

Anonymous
My sis and niece are coming into the city this weekend and we're going out to lunch. They want sushi. I like it too but I rarely go out for it. Where's a good place to bring them? We could do anywhere in NW DC.

TIA

NW as in downtown or NW as in upper?

Upper -- Sushiko at Friendship Heights

I suspect you're probably talking about upper NW but if you do mean downtown, Kaz at 19th & I has great sushi.

OP here. Anywhere from upper NW to Foggy Bottom to Chinatown. The whole quadrant works for me. Even Capitol Hill would work actually.

Sushi Ko in FH doesn’t have a great vibe. I find it to be snooty even though the sushi is great. I live down the street and haven’t been in years. RIP the original location in Glover Park.

I suggest Sushi Taro in Dupont. You can do sushi or Japanese/ Omasake.
Make a reservation since I believe it is Restaurant Week.

OP here. I just remembered the Women's March is on Saturday so we will probably avoid downtown because of the crowds. Sushi Taro is a good suggestion.

Thanks everyone!

Yasaku is just as good as sushi-ko without the snootiness and DC prices; good and very local, the neighbors know best.

I am a big fan of Kaz Sushi but only at the sushi bar, totally different expereince and I don't think Kaz is any more expensive than other good sushi places.

This post made me check the Kaz Sushi menu. I haven’t been there in years. I see that my favorite - foie gras nigiri - is still on the menu. Heavenly!

Kotobuki on MacArthur blvd is reasonably priced and good (not as good as Sushi-Ko, but less expensive).
