Takumi Japanese Bistro & Bar

This contemporary sushi bar has great sushi, but also offers satisfactory dishes from the kitchen. My wife had the maki rolls which she said were excellent. I had the beef terriyaki. It was served with the terriyaki sauce on the side. I prefer the beef to be smothered in the sauce as it helps to tenderize the meat. It also makes a more inviting presentation. The steak was also a bit fatty on some of the pieces. I had started with the shrimp tempura appetizer. This was light, crunchy and delicious. It was also a large enough portion which was perfect for sharing. My son had the fried rice which was also a generous portion and was tasty. The service was a bit spotty.

Got delivery from here and these were some really nice rolls. The Hurts roll was nice being a bit of shrimp tempura deluxe roll. Got the hot mama roll which was a lot like a yummy roll. Definite favorite was the Takumi roll. Very nice flavors. I haven't had anything like it. Truffle with tuna avocado and some other stuff. Absolutely delicious. Everything was presented nicely and would love to visit sometime to experience the atmosphere and maybe some of their other options.

I was very, very suspicious about the five star reviews and I just assumed there was some mischief going on, there had to be some sort of, leave a five star review for a free mochi ice cream, or something. I have to report there were no covert deals offered. The food was just good quality at a reasonable price, and the service was very friendly. My waitress was named Linda and she was a sweetheart and made the experience great. I’m not sure I would call it tradition Japanese food, but good modern takes. The golden ramen was impressively good.

Came here tonight with my girlfriend. Service was impeccable. This is our new favorite ramen spot, even better than places we’ve had in DC. So far we’ve tried takumi ramen, kimchi beef, and golden. Takumi and kimchi beef are our favorites, but they’re all exceptional. Cheesecake also slapped.

Brand was an amazing bartender! Greeted me and provided prompt and great service! He assisted me with drinks as I awaited my Maryland roll to go! Atmosphere and ambiance of this location was also very inviting!! Will return soon :)
