SUSHI SNOB

Locals here are fortunate to have sushi snob. This is your high end omakase inside the local Japanese restaurant. The select pieces come from all over the world. The techniques are executed from years of experience serving. But the value is for the people. The 55$ ten piece omakase feels like I just robbed the place. But as I sat at the counter, I can see what this place meant. We are greeted warmly by the host even though outside felt like 30 degrees. At the counter, Chef Tugu and Chef Jango introduced themselves. As I waited for the omakase to begin, I over hear the Chef talk to the other patrons about food and work. Another patron walks in and gives chef a hug and they chat for a bit before they take their to go order out. I appreciate and respect the small town feel here. They are mor

A very modest space on M St NW, but the food and personality were above and beyond. The omakase & sushi set for dinner is pricy, but it was a worthy experience. I dined solo, and the team behind the counter were engaging with all eleven diners; I had a lot of fun conversations. Sushi and sake curation were perfect and apparently can change daily and seasonally. Bravo!

Absolutely incredible sushi, great service, and very cozy, intimate atmosphere that I don't think can be beat. Every preparation was outstanding and a good mix of traditional and modern, each playing to the strengths of the fish. My only regret is not ordering more when offered. I'm very much looking forward to the next time I can visit.

Chef Jango is wonderful. Thank you for a great omakase lunch. Can’t wait to come back. 10/10 recommend.

Looooove this place! It’s very unassuming but I love the no frills air about it, they’re just focused on food and great service. I’ve been here twice for lunch omakase and it’s my favorite in the city. The chef’s selections/creations are so inventive and delicious.
