Kat L.Kat L: Splurge for fatty tuna. Grilled eel no better than cheaper eel. Eel tempura and avocado is excellent. Yellowtail only okay - nothing special. Spicy tuna is very nice but not a must.

Jules W.Jules Weiss: Several delicious uni options: Maine & Cali uni sashimi, uni & tofu dish, uni tempura. Intimate ambiance, great service, love it.

Morgan H.Morgan Haines: The duck carbonara was delicious. And the small portion is gigantic! Shrimp tempura reminds me of bang bang shrimp from bonefish grill... Yum!

Mike F.Mike F: Shrimp tempura is very good. Don't think it was great tempura (coating was off a bit), but it was possibly about the best fried shrimp I've had in recent memory.

Joe F.Joe Finley: Scallop with tequila lime ice appetizer is amazing. The venison medallions are great. Top it all off with a West End Manhattan...one of the smoothest and well balanced drinks I've ever had.

Washingtonian MagazineWashingtonian Magazine: You can count on good burgers and soups but the standout dish is the most out-there: a salt-rimmed margarita glass filled with lime-marinated bay scallops, tequila ice, and sour cream.
