Absolutely amazing! We stopped in here on our way back to Richmond and fell in love. You get really delicious rolls for a reasonable price and everyone who works there was super helpful at helping us figure out what to get. Will definitely be returning!

The best sushi I have ever had. I have been to a lot of sushi restaurants around the United States so believe me when I say this is the best I have ever had. They have some very unique combinations or your can come up with your own. The serving staff is top notch. The drinks are so inventive. Only down side is trying to find a place to park so make sure to plan on some extra time to find parking.

Excellent sushi with lots of options. Definitely on the pricy side. The restaurant is very popular and the sushi bar was having trouble keeping up with the demand. We ended up waiting quite a while for our first order.

Chef Peter (AKA Saran) wasn't in, but his trained sushi chefs did not miss a beat. We are monthly regulars, only because we live in New Jersey and work only brings me to the DC Metro area once a month. Otherwise, I would dine here every weekend. As for the tastings, let's say all the selected and prepared fish and wagyu just melt in your mouth. The blends of sauces and salts just complement the cuts. Bravo and 5+ stars.

Food and service as always was good. But portions are small. We were able to keep cost under $50 with 2 apps and 2 rolls, plus 1 glass of wine. Other times we have had a $100 tab for two.

I really enjoy Yume but would enjoy it even more if the restaurant lowers the volume on the music it plays. I think portions are perfect sized and the rolls (including some of the specials) are priced well. The sauces on the rolls are all very tasty!

I was there for my anniversary with my wife . Food was too pricy for the quality. It was not a wow sushi for the price they charged. Unfortunately, after eating this food, I got terrible upset stomach and couldn’t even sleep last night. I’m sushi lover and eat sushi at least twice a week, so my upset stomach is pretty much related to the food quality.

Was a fun, trendy spot. The rolls looked great, and we were really happy with our drinks. I would say steer clear of the tasting menu. It was fun, but we felt like they stretched a bit to make the dishes “expensive” enough to justify the $150 per person cost. It seemed like they used things like truffle oil and foie gras on a lot of the pieces, which was a bit much for us. Bottom line: Skip the omakase tasting and just order off the regular menu.

It’s the first meal that I’ve had in a very long while where the service was the epitome of traditional French service — attentive, unobtrusive, ubiquitous and practically invisible — waiters and bussers arrived filled glasses, delivered food, checked in, and disappeared as quickly as they came without interfering with the meal. The food was beautifully presented and prepared, and was fresh and delicious. Well done!!!

We were really looking forward to enjoying sushi based on the reviews. We eat sushi at least 1 time a week at all different locations. This meal was horribly overpriced for what we received. A roll was 6 pieces and the pieces were pitifully thin. The menu described some creativity to the rolls but the elements on the roll were minuscule. My husband had nigiri which was fresh but very small. The nigiri is priced 1 piece per order. Finally, $18 for top shelf martini is a pretty stiff even for the DC area.

We had a very bad experience at this restaurant. After ordering edamame and miso soup, Sushi (nigiri) platter and 4 sushi rolls with very clear instructions that we had allergies to shrimp and truffle oil we were served nigiri that had truffle infused wasabi on every piece. Luckily my wife did not ingest the piece because the taste of truffle was so overwhelming. This was not the only problem that diners should be aware of. First we never received our edamame or soup. Second the waitress clearly acknowledged my statement about not serving shrimp or truffle when she took our order. When the waitress took the truffle infused nigiri away she was clearly frazzled. The replacement platter took more than 20 minutes and was brought out by the manager, Kevin, who served it and explained what each piece was quickly without any apology or acknowledgement of what had happened. Not sure why he came out in his suit to serve it other than he was gauging our level of concern about this significant allergy faux pas. To add insult to injury I got an email from Open Table saying that the restaurant reported we did not check in or show up for our reservation. This is a bold-faced lie and a clear indication that they were covering their tracks. With all that said the sushi we had (the stuff that wasn't infused with truffle oil that could have caused my wife to go to the hospital was very good quality. Oh by the way, when the waitress brought the check she had charged us for edamame and soup. When she realized that was screwed up to she scurried off to ask the manager permission to take that off the bill. Final note - Service is extremely slow. This is based on our last 3 visits not just one. I guess that means three strikes. Recommendation- go to Sushi Zen at Lee Harrison shopping center instead.
