Best Roll

1. Sushi Taro

Neighborhood: Dupont Circle

taste for sushi i suppose.  Anyways, I came here yesterday for dinner with a few friends.  I ordered the oyakodon and a shrimp tempura roll.  The oyakodon was one of the best I've had in the area...

2. Kotobuki

Neighborhood: Palisades

will be the sea scallop.  The maki are a great deal as well with many of the 6-piece roll sets ringing in at $2.95-$4.00.  I went with the spicy salmon roll and the spicy scallop roll.  Both were great except...

3. Spices Asian…

Neighborhood: Cleveland Park

the spring rolls, but the Thai fried rice is amazing.  One of their best.  The sushi is very fresh and even with delivery, the rice is still warm.  The man that answers the phone does love to repeat your...

3. Makoto Restaurant

4. Sushi-Ko

Neighborhood: Glover Park

5. Bonsai Grill
